Bought the Ultimate Edition from GoG when it was on sale, as I haven’t done any of the DLCs before.
Boone is still my favourite companion, but Veronica is my bruiser. I know ED-E is referred to with he/him pronouns, but I read it as “Edie” not “Eddie” so the eyebot is a honorary girl ✨
Awey, kill all kaezars.
I LOVE FNV I LOVE WALKING AROUND THE MOJAVE DESERT KILLING LEGIONARIES AND LISTENING TO JOHNNY GUITAR
That’s a unique take on ED-E. To my eyes, it’s phonetically Eddie, but other regions could see it differently, and you’re right, it’s a robot so it doesn’t much matter.
Boone and ED-E is an overpowered combination due to the way their perks synergise. But not everyone plays for power. Veronica is a great choice too. I like the one you pick up in a bar, “Rose of Sharon Cassidy”. Or just Cass. I think that’s the one. She has one of the coolest ending cards, too (referring to the epilogue slideshow at the end, not a spoiler!). There are a few requisites to get her best card, though — male courier and NCR ending, IIRC.
The first two DLC are kinda shit. The first one, Dead Money, was divisive for its stealth mechanic. It’s kind of broken. It’s either too easy or too hard depending on your style and experience. Honest Hearts was just not good. But the four DLC’s have a story that is worth experiencing and that’s the order to do them in. Third is Old World Blues which is probably the best Fallout DLC to date. Lonesome Road is just pretty, with a choice at the end with far reaching implications. So save that adventure for when you’re sure who you want to side with at the end!
New Vegas is objectively the best Fallout game. It’s not my favorite, but it’s the one I respect the most as a game. 3 was more fun to me, but it was kinda dumb at times. 4 was even more fun, but it was downright stupid.
