[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!

    • I like the show more options. The only problem with it is that it's not always in a consistent spot in the menu. If the copy/paste/cut, happens to show on top, then more option is the last in the menu. But if copy/paste/cut happens to show on the bottom, then more options is before the copy/paste/cut. But I do like the more options because it hides the stuff that I rarely use. But I would like to choose what it is or isn't hiding. That would make it better.
    • I wonder if "put it back the way it was for decades" ever crossed their minds? 🤣
    • Rescind the stupid "Show more options" in context menus and just give us the full menu instead of adding more steps to get to what we want. The "simpler by default" makes me think they'll go in the opposite direction. Every context menu should have a configure button so you can pick and choose what options should be shown, I know you can do that with some registry fu but that shouldn't be required.
    • This is why competition must exist. Finally, pressure is mounting on Microsoft to move in the right direction.
    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable by Taras Buria Five years ago, Windows 11 introduced redesigned context menus, offering users a simpler, more modern design. However, customers quickly discovered that the new menus leave a lot to be desired. Many are unhappy with performance (they are really slow), while others dislike the double-layed design, where many options are hidden behind the "Show more options" button. In addition, over the years, menus became cluttered and overloaded. While Microsoft has already fixed plenty of pain points across Windows 11, context menus remain mostly unchanged. Fortunately, Microsoft is finally listening. Marcus Ash, Design and Research Lead for Windows at Microsoft, responded to a tweet on X, confirming that the company is working on fixing Windows 11's context menus. Reworked context menus are supposed to be faster, simpler by default, and "configurable to what you use most." What the latter means is unknown, just like whether Microsoft plans to keep the classic menu alongside the modern one, but according to Marcus, the wait should finally be over soon, as he promised to "share our approach soon." Improved context menus will most likely appear first in Windows 11 preview builds in the Experimental Channel. While we wait for Microsoft to release them, you can try fixing context menus on your PC with a simple tool called Windows 11 Context Menu Manager. It lets you disable entries you do not need, not only cleaning up context menus, but also making them significantly faster. Microsoft has already improved Windows 11's Start menu and taskbar, so hopefully it will address user criticism of the context menu as well. Stay tuned for new Windows 11 preview builds, which usually arrive every Friday.
