It might not mean anything, but it could mean something. One very specific thing.

Mfw Bethesda pushes a new update to NV a week before this releases that fixes nothing and breaks everything, even though they didn't develop the game.

"Now introducing Creation Club for New Vegas!"

[–] calamitycastle@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Could we get a new fallout game instead maybe?

[–] thermal_shock@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I'd be happy with NV that worked.

It's called "Viva New Vegas", and it slaps

[–] thermal_shock@lemmy.world 1 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Didn't try this one. Since I have all the dlc too, I might have to try it this weekend. I can barely get out of primm without crashing, even with mods supposed to fix it. Tapping "save" repeatedly is annoying as hell lol.

There's also "A Tale of Two Wastelands", which gives FO3 the same treatment and stitches them into one game. Best experience in the franchise imo. Let me know how you come out!

my prediction: remaster will fix 0 bugs

[–] M137@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

It's the elder scrolls time first, Bethesda has always done it like that and I seriously can't understand how it seems like most people fail to comprehend this.

[–] BananaOnionJuice@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Agreed, FONV already has hi-res mods for those who want it.

[–] thermal_shock@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Game crashes constantly, even with mods. 1gb memory leaks.

I've paid for the game and can't get it to work.

Echoing that I've been running VNV and it works remarkably well on my hardware.

It works well on everything. The amount of work I've seen put into VNV since 2020 is astounding.

This is a prime example of why no one should listen to fans.

New Vegas does not need to be dumbed down and turned into a generic looter shooter.

Wasn’t the Oblivion remaster kind of crap? I’m a shameless Oblivion nostalgia fanboy, but even I avoided it in lieu of waiting for Skyblivion.

And seeing how NV uses Oblivion's engine, meaning they’ll probably use the same dev strategy… uh, why are folks getting so excited?

[–] Kalothar@lemmy.ca 1 points 6 hours ago

The remaster was awesome IMO and oblivion was always my favorite elder scrolls.

The graphical upgrade as well as the Unreal Engine scripting giving access to new modding possibilities it has been an all around great up date and has popped oblivion back into my game rotation.

[–] BorisBoreUs@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Obviously there won't be a New Vegas remake. This is clearly teasing Half Life 3
