Oh I still play New Vegas, Fallout 4 is a great game but it doesn't quite capture that same Fallout feel that New Vegas had. Plus with all of the amazing mod content released for New Vegas, I can play the same game but with fresh new game mechanics every time. I'm sure once Fallout 4 mods start rolling out more and more I'll play that more than New Vegas, but New Vegas will always have a special place in my heart. It was the first fallout game i have ever played and the first game I ever got into modding.

I still play New vegas, though now a days it's more for mod development and testing. The main reason I don't play the actual game often or at all these days is because of the huge amount of work that would go into making a proper playthrough, hundreds of mods, lots of tweaking and custom mods and plenty of planning. I quite enjoyed Fallout 4 and I didn't mind the story, it could do with a lot of work sure, but it has a great base to start creating amazing mods on. My problem is before Fallout 4 came out people just enjoyed new vegas and some people didn't enjoy it and didn't say anything about it, but now with Fallout 4 out everyone just seems to be going with the popular opinion that fallout 4 sucks and has a bad story blah blah blah, and going and saying that new vegas is a freaking cornerstone of gaming.
It's not, it's a good game and I still play it because I do modding, but seriously, form your own opinion. This was a bit of a rant but I just wanted to get that out of my system.

I still come back to new vegas. FO4 is alright but doesn't seem to have the magic.

Fallout 4 is awesome for me. Im working on the keeping all three factions while taking out the institute. The settlement mods have me addicted to building up places tho I dont use the ones that add the ridiculous sparkling new appliances and vehicles while the rest of the area is a wasteland.
I still have TTW on my pc and run around in there atleast a few times every week. Ive never finished New Vegas ever since I learned the game just ends right after with no option to continue and the mods for continuing give TTW lots of trouble.

I keep meaning to play New Vegas with TTW, mainly because I can't play Fallout 4 anymore what with X-COM 2 having roasted my graphics card on my desktop. I tried playing NV for like 30 minutes but I'm so used to Fallout 4 now that not being able to sprint, and actually having to open containers was a bit weird, and on top of that I couldn't find the place that let's me travel from the capital wasteland to the Mojave, it wasn't where I was reading that it was supposed to be, might be using an old version or something.

While that's unfortunate, I must advocate the newest version of TTW. It's pretty solid and once you gather a few mods together you can sort of replicate FO4's in place systems, obviously with that Gamebyro twist we all love. As far as I know, the newest version has a legitimate train station in the Capital Wasteland that lets you travel there. It's somewhere by Grayditch last I remember. And if you're in the Mohave Wasteland at that point, you'll be in Freeside.

Thanks, I'll definitely see about updating TTW then, I've always really badly wanted to play through it. It's a bit difficult to play through both stories when you can't figure out how to travel between them haha.

I will likely continue both developing mods and playing New Vegas.
It is technically superior in fidelity over Fallout 4 despite it's outdated graphics and this is what has allowed it to have such vitality. I don't see Fallout 4 lasting very long, it's problems are not only limited in technical terms but in the story itself. It's very dull and lacks even the most rudimentary RPG aspects, and mods can't save that.
you do realise Fallout 4 will last a long time when the Creation Kit rolls out thats when it be much more better same thing with Skyrim nothing like morrowind but more popular with mods

@"AussieShepherd117" Like dnuobnU said, its problems aren't just technical like Skyrim's were. It's in the way the game is structured in the first place. Skyrim, though many TES fans didn't like its story as much as the ones before, did not really go outside of the box for TES games. It just had a different story than what everyone was used to. FO4, on the other hand, completely ditched the way Fallout is usually structured. It forsook player choice and other RPG elements that make Fallout what it is in order to cater to more people. In essence, they created a decent game that could appeal to more people, but did so at the cost of it becoming inferior to the games before it, and giving pretty much no replayability. Unless there'a complete overhaul that starts again from scratch, there really is no saving it. It's already losing steam, and fast. People were humming about Fallout 3 and Skyrim for months after release, even up to year. Right now, the only hum about Fallout 4 is negative feedback from disappointed fans and diehard Beth fanboys attacking them for daring to criticize their almighty Todd Howard. The DLC might provide some salvation, but to the majority of the Fallout community, it's pretty much already a dead game.

Pff ,playing it more than FO4 .It does not feel empty .Like Fallout 4 empty ,like all of those fancy tall buildings are like props .Also there is the wild west and it makes more sense ,i dunno maybe is me just being a grupy old dog complaining about new games .The only problem with NV is that it needs a lot of unofficial fixes so you can play without much corrupted saved games . The wasteland in FO3 and NV feels like a wasteland ,here in the commonwealth is ...not that of a wasteland .The only wastelandy feeling is in the glowing sea .For a 200 year aftermath the city looks good .So many bright colors ...must go back to the depressing grays and poopy browns. Have fun.
