NEW VEGAS!

[Shagohad]

Alright. As of late, I've become a shut-in playing this game. As Kikatsu mentioned, some one would have made a thread about by now. Problem is, everyone's been too busy playing to get one out.

So, without further ado, my first impressions:

QUESTS! They're fun! No more of this 'let's go to point A and kill X amount of Y for a few minutes'. Well...there are some missions like that. But not all. One mission had me play the role of a guardsman outside a weapon shop.

Combat seems a lot better. With the addition of iron sights to most weapons(Laser guns don't have sights. Who knew?), the game feels a little more combat oriented. I still have vats do all the work, but it's always fun to whip out my 10mm SMG and peer down the sights as my bloody mess perk does its job.

Upgrades are a needed addition. You can now put new tools on your guns to make them a lot more badass. For example, my laser rifle has a scope and a beam splitter.

The longevity of the game has also vastly improved. I've been playing for ten hours and I just got to the Strip. Even then, I'm not even half way done with the game! And this is after I took about twenty side quests! I haven't even explored most of the locations and only found one vault.

So add your notes up here about the changes and cool things you found!
