I just finished NV on Very Hard + Hardcore...I have PTSD now
What about you did you finish NV Very Hard + Hardcore?
How would you describe it?

Frustration, and ragequitted a lot. Maintaining food and water were more annoyances than challenges because you would get hungry/dehydrated so often. You also couldn't carry as much as you wanted - so you had "play more effectively" or go haul your loot from 1 location to the other. Plus One shotting enemies! It was spooky at first but then it got annoying dying to the same thing over and over.

I wish New Vegas had Fallout4's survival mode though (the new one), way more mechanics that felt like an actual threat when you play (besides the bed save only mechanic - fuck that)

With Directors cut (JSawyers mod), Enemy AI overhaul, and other stuff - it seems impossible to do now. (Though I will try)

I think vanilla fnv is not that hard of a game.The only time it made me rage quit was when trying to get to Nellis Air Force. Other than that maybe the final Legion boss was a bit hard but everything else was pretty normal difficulty.

Hell on Earth, but a hell I enjoyed nonetheless. My only gripe with hardcore is the fact ammo takes up so much weight; but I suppose it makes things interesting. Ammo isn't exactly weightless IRL, so...

It's more iteresting and useful when using with it backpack-survival bunker's-player home's it's for this, this mods was made you dont feel anymore that emptyness in your soule

deathclaws and cazadors they make grown men cry and scream in terror running while throwing grenades and missiles from far away before slipping and being ambushed

I never use to play on Hardcore mode until I became virtuallt unkillable. Wanting a challenge, I began plating hardcore mode and found my fighting tactics changr drastically. Instead of running in gun-ho as a bullet sponge, I actually began to use combat tactics in hardcore mode, ehich rrally made my walkthroughs more immersive.

Lol i was *plating* a lot lately

It was hard? I thought it was fun It was a bit challenging, but not something I rage quitted on. I took the sniper route and killed a lot of folks with my Varmint Rifle fully modded for the first 1/4 of the game. I only changed it to a suppressed sniper rifle when I got to Camp Mccaran. I always found water and food all around so it wasnt that much of a deal.

The only games that made me RQ are Demon Souls and Dark Souls 2 Scholar of the First Sin.
