As I just posted in the FO3 thread, I appreciate the gun play in NV.

The multiple ammo types, more varied weapons, and more realistic performance of firearms in general is better portrayed in New Vegas.

As someone who has an extensive firearm collection and is an avid target shooter, I appreciate this part probably the most.

I also enjoyed the more subtle additions like new types of drugs with status and visual effects, a more in depth companion system, and the slew of more interesting perks.

I LOVE the gunplay. Eva (my Char) Is an avid 9mm user. She has Maria, which has good accuracy anyway; but the iron sight makes it a monster, especially with my gun skill where it is.

I also love the companion system. I love how much effort the devs put into them. I also love that Felicia Day is my companion

Wha?!!...Who?...Which one?... ...

I luuuurve Felicia Day!!!... ... ...

Aaaamywho...I did a huge amount with NV, just after the second DLC came out...But then I just stopped completely...I remember that many of my offensive stats were headed for 100...I took out the entire of the Deathclaw bunch in that quarry with a rocket-launcher ...Oooh, that was sooo satisfying...

I'm wandering around in the power armour, I remember that too...I spent ages with that Veronica...I think she's the tops, after my all time fave companion - ED-E...I love him!!...

I think I'm living in that abandoned BOS bunker that you launch Dead Money from...The one with the chips that keep replenishing...

I've never been anywhere near the MQ of NV...And I'm pretty sure I've killed hundreds of Ceasar's Legion...My character - Arnaud - detests them with a passion...

Other than that, I can't remember much about NV other than I was completely obsessed with it for a goodly while, but when I stopped, I properly stopped...And other than one attempt to start again when I bought the last two DLCs, I've not been near it...

Shame really, I did enjoy the wandering...Espescially when I became as dangerous as the damned cazadors and deathclaws...

OOooh!!...I just remembered, Arnaud is implanted as far as he can go!!...I can't remember exactly, but I know the strength and regeneration ones for definite...Damn...I may have to go look in the morning... ...

I think I prefer FO3 overall...Just because it feels better...Like my preference for Oblivion over Skyrim...But NV was definately a fine game...I also prefer the way you get one perk per level-up in FO3 as opposed to the one every other in NV...That was a downer for me personally...

But, I was definately obsessed with NV for a time, so it couldn't have bothered me too much... ...
