[Official] Fallout New Vegas


Recommended Posts

Go figure, if the flaw (and I do regard this as a flaw) still exists, I bet Obsidian thought, "If we don't do this then there won't be as many sales on the DLC, so it will look like what we did wasn't as good as what Bethesda did."

There's a mod that allows you to continue playing after the last mission, it was one of the first mods I installed after I heard that the game ends after the last mission.

So, I maxed out, installed all implants, have all the best weapons/armour and Deathclaws fear me :p

do they actually respawn? I've hunted down a few groups such as Quarry Junction/Harvester's Farm area but that was 7 days gametime ago and they have not re-appeared

The full stop ending was known some time before the release. There was either an article or another topic about it a few months ago where Obsidian admitted the full stop ending and said there would be a glaring "Don't go any further if you still want to do other stuff" point before the point of no return for the ending. They even recommended creating a separate save for that point so you could finish and still go back to that save and continue exploring.

On one hand I can understand this thinking - a game should have an ending (for the story). On the other, in an open world game with so much to see and do it seems wrong to have a concrete stop point.

A game can have an ending on the main story without ending the rest of the game; just look at GTA Vice City. I seem to remember that ended but it still allowed you to wander around and do things. The difference here would be that the side quests that you haven't done would still be available.

Man im diggin the western music now......

"There was forty feet between them when they stopped to make their play

And the swiftness of the ranger is still talked about today

Texas Red had not cleared leather fore a bullet fairly ripped

And the ranger's aim was deadly with the big iron on his hip

Big iron on his hip"

yehaw!

    • We have disabled advertising in the forums for now for an undetermined period. If you feel like you get a lot of value out of the site please do whitelist ads on the news articles, and/or consider getting a subscription, we offer two tiers, one at: $14 per year (support the site for just over a dollar a month) or the $28/year tier (just over $2/month) that disables advertising and affiliate link tracking throughout the site (so also on the news side). We also have a 'Buy us a coffee' page if you just want to make a one-time donation. I am not mincing words when I say it is becoming harder and harder to monetize publications like Neowin, it's a fact of life that when we can no longer afford to pay for everything we'll go like many other sites already have. It doesn't have to cost you anything There are other ways to support Neowin too, like posting on topic content in the forums (technical support/questions/helping others) and sharing our news articles.. this costs nothing but your time and is just as important as subscribing or making a monetary donation! Anyway thanks for your time and continued support of Neowin. Now in our 26th year, and hopefully many more! For all the lurkers out there that whitelist us, make a free member account, and see fewer (only inline) ads on the news side
