For all lovers of this great game fallout new vegas, What was your first feeling when playing it for the first time? and what is your favorite faction ?

my first feeling was: the game was great despite it was a bag of problems bugs hahaha the first time I played it was without mods and was finished the game with Mr House
my favorite faction is that of the followers of the apocalypse Even if you do not have the option to end the game with that faction, which is the best thing that helps humanity to move forward and recover.
Now I'm playing again FNV I have more than 800 hours played I think it's a game of my favorites and every time a new modification comes I'll play it again

What do you remember about your first experience with FNV?

Nota: I'm sorry my English is not very good, it's not my native language

some pictures of the times I've seen I just started again in a new adventure most of my mods son Drag's public mods are excellent:

Bye

@waveiqq My first idea was to find the guy wearing the plaid jacket and put the handle of the shovel (which has been used to make the hole for me) where the back loses its name, if you see what I mean. I said to myself, "I hope for his health that he runs fast"

if I understand, and if that was one of my first goals when I did not know what would happen, that feeling of revenge was great

I know coming out of vault 101 and the sun glaring down on you as you come out and open to this vast wasteland is what captivated me. I loved the world, I really enjoyed the factions too and the quests.

But I have to say the first time I was left feeling a sense of awe and wonder is coming out of the sewer in Oblivion and just seeing this awesome beautiful world! I don’t think I’ve had that strong of a feeling in awhile. It almost a sensory overload.

And then during the game, I did the quests, looking forward to the moment when I finally manage to find Benny, it's my side "Negan", except I had a shovel instead of Lucille.

The Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion nice game and when I played FO3 and left the vault 101 and see the world for the first time it was a sensation of wanting to explore everything a great sensation, what a great moment, my first time in the wilderness I went to explore and I found myself face to face with a Deathclaw at that moment I learned to make a case to the compass

I hated New Vegas the first time I played it lol. Every other save would corrupt and my xbox 360 would freeze up. Later on it grew on me though!

Scared.

Because I did not expect Doc Mitchell's head to spin during the start of the game.

It was so long ago I honestly can't remember my first impressions.

All I know is that I've played through it...probably over twenty times now? So ummm...take that for what you will.

I can barely remember my first feeling/playthrough. But I remember that I just really enjoyed playing it, and now I'm still playing it, really I can't stop.

I had not played many years ago FNV expected fallout 4 but when I played on ps4 I got a desire to return to new vegas I returned and I no longer stop playing

Fantastic, i remember coming home with the game, pluging in the xbox and wandering the wasteland for the first time... I had played a ton of Fallout 3, but New Vegas was a different beast, the stories the game told were so interesting, and they didnt go over my teen mind, even though they were complex.
Then my brother ran into my xbox, which scratched the DVD and the game got stuck as i met the great Legion at Nipton. Had to buy another game. Almost cried haha

Back then, i already played Fallout 3 goty, and then i thought new vegas was just a little spin off until i saw that ultimate edition over a shelf on a gamestore. And then in Christmas day when i got out of my little job i had on a supermarket i had the chance to buy New Vegas to my older brother, since he likes the series (chilean: la wea costaba 30 lucas la version ultimate) (shit's was like 50 USD for the ultimate edition) But when i gave it to him he wasn't so excited, i just wanted him to be happy that i forgot he prefers those kind of games in PC since i bought him the PS3 version, well i guess he sold it later but that was up to him if he didn't liked it after all.

On the other hand after all that, i was able to buy my own copy for PS3, the funny thing is that i bought it secondhand in a game store that i was always looking for secondhand games when i had money, the game didn't even had his original case, instead it had a blue-ray case with a crappy printed New Vegas cover, but the thing that made me buy the shit was 2 reasons.

1- i was desperate to play a new game
aand 2-(i think the vendor didn't notice) it was the ultimate edition, i read the disc before i bought it.

Anyway, i was amazed of the better RPG elements it has compared to 3 same as the History and quests, also the other features that Fallout 3 didn't had such as weapon mods and ammo variety.

Responde en español wn nooooooooooooo

My first game was New Vegas, I remember the dread of sneaking around because I'd never played an open world game like that before and I thought everyone was out to get me. When going up the hill to Mojave outpost I went up the hill 3 different directions, looking at the people to see if they were hostile or not. I quickly fell in love with the game and explored everything there was to explore. THEN I discovered mods, and it quickly became my favorite in the series. Always a fan of the 50's era, I couldn't help but love every minute of Post Apocalyptic America

Thats the best bug of the game!

I felt that the atmosphere was quite enjoyable, the Wild West feel of the game was something I loved. And although I enjoyed the locations and main factions, I always felt as though there was a slight lack of substance.

My favorite faction is my own, The Courier. I pretty much dislike the main factions of the game; they each have philosophies and goals that I feel are unsatisfactory to what I perceive as the "right" way of doing things. Unless you count The Sink as a faction. If so, I'm with them all the way.

If I'm being honest, I wasn't impressed. Not that I don't like the game, I love it, its one of my favorite games and certainly my favorite fallout from the 3D run so far. I just didn't give it a chance. I had beaten FO3 the year before that at the constant nagging of a friend and had found it super boring, unfun, and it even turned me off of RPG's for a while.
The first time I had played FNV was on 360 after the same friend that had pestered me to finish FO3 gave it to me. I played through it, and saw the same dopey faces of FO3 with a western setting. I don't remember a lot of what I did in game, but I remember that I played it like I played FO3, and if you've played both games then you know that's not exactly how you're supposed to go about it.
That being said, I came back to it later and loved it, obviously. My favorite faction is the Followers, it seems a little unrealistic the other factions prosper so much (aside from the NCR and Legion, since they're militant forces and can't really be described as 'prospering') but the followers are brutal. You get the sense that they're just barely hanging on by a thread despite being the most morally "good" of all the factions. That brutality adds a LOT to the tone and depth of the waste land.

Oh god 2010 was a weird year for me.

Several thoughts at the time:

"Why is the sky yellow, this is stupid."

"What's with the complex, no consequence free choices? Maybe I should play FO3 over this."

"This is a post apocalyptic game! Why are there thriving communities? I demand complete depression and loneliness!"

A few weeks later, and this ultimately changed. Minus the yellow sky complaint.

I'm too old to remember, I think it was like a salute in honor of what a holiday.
