So... you can't enjoy your game UNLESS you play after the ending? Okay, right. :|

What would you do after the game? I suspect it would be similar to what you're doing now.

(Bait) Fallout New Vegas, working, functional.

(Switch) Fallout New Vegas, broken, unfunctional.

How is this not illegal, isnt this grounds for legal action? I honestly dont know. Is it ok because they dont come out and say it works? I could raise the flag of false advertisemant if the stability of a game wasnt implied, but of course they would never make that claim legally because it would be false.

To end this rant...if they just cant accomplish the task in front of them. Alow someone who can. This quality is indefensable, it shouldnt make it past early testing, let alone the quality assurance processes of any of the distribution mediums.

I'd suggest starting a new game or rolling back to a save before the "point of no return" in the game's final act. There's no way to access Dead Money if you're at the endgame and the content does not allow you to play beyond the main quest.

The reason Fallout 3 worked so well after the game is because
Spoiler
the purifier would get working no matter what
. You have more control over the fate of New Vegas than you did in the Capital Wasteland.

Judging by the ratio of users against playing after the end in comparison to those who want to play.....

Well, don't expect a play-after-end DLC anytime soon.

I was being sarcastic. At this point, I have no expectations for anything. There could be a prehistoric DLC and somehow I wouldn't be that shocked.

i agree, the game needs to have an ending, its pretty boring aynway once the quests are done, i sure am glad bethesda made games don't have dumb endings and at least have so much content there is plenty do after the main quest, but new vegas is a different kind of game, the sooner it ends the better the game is, it just doens't have enough content to justify playing after the main quest.

There's a button on the main menu that will solve all your problems. It's called "new game" and I'm positive you clicked it at least once.

To be honest, every Bethesda game since Morrowind has had a terribly dumb ending. From Oblivion's "Stand by and let the NPC do all the work" to FO3's "Hey, we're going to make you kill yourself/sacrifice the Brotherhood chick despite giving you no less than eight separate ways to survive" to Broken Steel's "Hey, you beat the Enclave. Good show. Now go bring me cameras and sensor modules."

See, while I know the DLCs probably won't continue any main storylines, I feel like their subject matter, if it's anything like what people are guessing, would be experienced best after the MQ. But then again, I have no idea how those additions will actually play, so...

i know i saved right before and when the game froze i had to restart and in a panic after getting to the place where the game froze i accidentally overwrote the save. I really dont wanna start a whole new game because i have done it several times, do you know if there will be an dlc that will allow you to play through the end?

bethesda games generally don't have endings, the main quest might end, but their games don't end until the player decides to end the game, and its not about the quests and story, bethesda games are about much more than a list of quests, their worlds are dynamic, offer tons of exploration, enemies to fight, plenty of fantasy, and an overall game experience, haven't you ever listened to todd howard talking abuot how they make their games, its not about the story or quests, its the players overall experience, people like dynamic worlds with plenty of fantasy and fun things to do, fun interesting places to explore, battling enemies in dungeons and across the map, thats what they do.

Two things.

Fallout games -and 98% of RPGs- do end. The only reason they knuckled under and made Broken Steel was because the original ending was so naff. So we continued and as pointed out, our new ending was to be asked to collect cameras and powercells.


Obsidian made New Vegas, not Bethesda. It's up to them how they choose to make their game.



edit: Also to point out only two Edler Scrolls games have -so far- allowed you to play after the end. The rest ended.

Meh, for me the game ends when the main quest ends, regardless if i can continue or not. Unless of course there are dungeons and enemies that are unlocked only after beating it like many jRPGs have. Usually lots of :bolt: required.
