I liked it. I liked it a lot.


I was disappointed because it could have been so much more. I guess high expectations are a downside of having some of the gods of RPG design on your development team. The writing was absolutely great but I'd expect nothing less from some of the best in the business. The map design was great too but who really pays attention to that? My only problem was for the price it was a bit short and it had no side content, it was all on rails.

I'm halfway through it.. (I Think :P ), and I'm enjoying it so far. It actually looks like it'd be worth the time to go back and explore places once the main quest is finished.

I finished the main quest and most of the side quests (didn't bother with the Bighorner and Rite of Passage side quests) and I very much liked the DLC. I enjoyed the storyline despite it being more minimalistic than Dead Money's, and the Zion Valley was a very nice change from the Mojave.

Enjoyed it, Great chracters, plot, weapons and landscape.

But I thoguht the ending felt little rushed and while great eable to return to zion it could of done abit more to give it life like caravans coming and going with a few speialized tribal merchants

I loved it, I came back to the forum expecting praise just to see everyone was whining.

I just hated how all the White Legs disapear after you finish! WTF I'm tired of killing animals. In the Mojave there are almost no human enemies that spawn for you to fight. Now I get more of that in Zion???

But other than that it was great. I was glad with just the new ammo and the .45 Auto Pistol lol

I love it. It has everything I always wanted in NV: .45's, tommy guns, Ranger Combat Armor (non NCR), a good service rifle, and the burned man.

I agree wholeheartedly. I mainly wanted the non-NCR Ranger Combat Armor and Burned Man appearance like you said, but the unique service rifle and .45 Auto Pistol and Submachine Gun are sweet additions, too.

As for the add-on itself, I think it's awesome. I'm close to finishing it with my fleshed-out playthrough, and I have to say it was well worth my $10.

Huh? ;p

If anything it's New Vegas' equivalent of Point Lookout. Savages and tribals all around, just a few civilized people, great focus on exploration, etcetera.

Dead Money is closest to Mothership Zeta, I think. The whole "being captured and working together with other captives to get back at the bad guy" idea, at least. DM was a hell of a lot better than MZ though.

I loved it, the only two problems in my opinion was that the story were that the story was little short and there wasn't as much depth to Joshua Graham as I would've preferred.

Spoiler
Not to mention the helpful, but really out-of-place box after the epilogue.

Yeah I had a hard time fitting that into reality as well.

Still cool though, love the armor and pistol.

I loved it, outside of my "can't keep my DLC companions even though most of them go to Vegas in the epilogue" gripe.

I would've liked to have the chance to enslave the White Legs for the Legion ("help" them, lolwut? They're raiders. Would you help the Fiends?), but I liked the story. You stumble into a war, so it makes sense to help out. I mean, what else could they have done?

Berserkstatus, welcome to the forums.

I enjoyed the DLC, a little short but it was definately fun with plenty of new stuff, I really like that afterwards the wasteland vendors stock the stuff from Honest Hearts, at first I was angry that I was cut off from all the new weapons but then I was told that the Gun Runners and some other vendors stock the new stuff and the world was right again.

I love new material. I loved going to new places, meeting new people, and killing them. Lol...this DLC was a lot of fun. The main quest and side quests were entertaining, but what really held my interest was the story of the old ranger and trying to find all his supply caches to read the end. It was very macabre as fallout should. I know some of you don't like just shooting animals after the main quest is done, but if you wander around long enough you will find some challenging surprises. For those that love energy weapons, don't despair there is one interesting artifact to be found. There are always those who see the negative side to not only video games, but you just have to smile, give them a little space, walk around them, and continue on your way.

I admit the DLC was a tad short, but I enjoyed every second of it. It was great hunting for new unique guns and armour. All of the gear looks awesome. I wish I had taken more time into Dead Money to get every unique item...
