Boring characters, kinda cool environment, very little story. Burned Man is the only cool thing about it. Dead Money was waaaay more interesting

I rather enjoyed the area. It just sucked that, once you finish it, the amount of enemy gunmen wanes hard.
Burned Man made it all worth it, though. --- Take me down from the ridge where the summer ends And watch the city spread out just like a jet's flame ... Copied to Clipboard!

Yeah, Dead Money is one of those add-ons that's way better on repeat playthroughs, when you know where all the interfering radios are. It can be quite terrible for first-timers, understandably.

Dead Money has the Sierra Madre mystery, cool as fuck party members with their own mysteries, and a helluva payoff. When I finished Honest Hearts, I felt nothing for anyone.

Unpopular opinion: I liked all New Vegas' DLCs except Old World Blues because the humor overstays its welcome and the enemies turn into bullet sponges past level 20.

I hated Dead Money when I played it, but I came to realize around Lonesome Road that it was the best of all the DLC.
I don't thibk I ever played a Bethesda RPG with as poetic a story as Dead Money, or told as wonderfully. Frustrating game mechanics dont change that. And weirdly, I liked HH when I played it but after it was over I realized I hated it. The burned man was cool, but ultimately it was just another desert with a few more guns. --- Freedom is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear. -George Orwell ... Copied to Clipboard!

What's funny is I thought Dead Money would be the one I hated most, but it ended up being my favorite New Vegas DLC by far. And goddamn did it feel like I was jigsaw at the end

I also didn't feel much at all for Honest Hearts. Thought Old World Blues was pretty ridiculous, but that's pretty much the entire point.
Dead Money was interesting. Lonesome Road was amazing to me. I just loved the feeling of me and my robot buddy going along a long, very atmospheric, dangerous journey to lead to one last battle. --- NNID: MWatcher27 / 3DS FC: 1203 - 9408 - 2283 http://steamcommunity.com/id/MWatcher/wishlist ...

But I would still play HH over any of the Bethesda DLC. chill02 posted... Unpopular opinion: I liked all New Vegas' DLCs except Old World Blues because the humor overstays its welcome and the enemies turn into bullet sponges past level 20. Agreed on principle, even though I still love OWB. DM can make a bad first impression that some gamers never get over, while OWB makes one hell of a good first impression; however, DM ages like fine wine while OWB loses it's luster on repeat playthroughs. --- Simple questions deserve long-winded answers that no one will bother to read. ...

I think the weirdest thing was Ulysses's presentation of this, because I also got the vibe that they were trying to add a significant bit of back story to my blank slate.

am i the only one who absolutely hated Ulysses, Lonesome Road, and how it gave a whole backstory to the player character who previously was essentially a blank slate? LR was by far my least favorite DLC. The story of Lonesome Road and all the shit with Ulysses didn't interest me much. What I liked about Lonesome Road was the setting. It felt more post-apocalyptic than Bethesda's take on Fallout, and that was something really cool. It was the journey that interested me. Taking in the sights and the lore behind the Divide. Having ED-E beside me almost the entire time. Fallout is supposed to be about a world rebuilding, just along with the reminder that all the shit that got them into that situation in the first place would never disappear. Lonesome Road felt more like what Fallout should be to me. I think mostly I just like ED-E. Honest Hearts was cool too, but it was my least favorite of the DLCs. --- Ah, yes, the Negotiator: General Kenobi <sneaky beeping> ... Copied to Clipboard!

LR was by far my least favorite DLC. Again, since it was understood from the beginning of your game that your character was a mailman, it's not like the game declared that you took an action that was out of the blue. --- Freedom is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear. -George Orwell ...

it is an objective fact that LR fills in backstory for your character. it is plainly presented in the game. that is not something that is up for debate. you're only making yourself look foolish pretending it is. Who said I was? This "backstory" doesn't fill in anything. You were a courier and you delivered something. Hence: dave_is_slick posted... One that's not even true to begin with?

Dead Money
Good: Survival, solving how to get around with the cloud and the radios, interesting companions, awesome environment, lore, and story Bad: Companions have a very limited amount of things to say and the timer for saying a phrase is like every half a minute, can be frustrating Lonesome Road (aka how to get really rich really quick) Good: ED-E is cute and gets pretty good upgrades, exploration(!!!), everything felt very old school America which was neat Bad: Ulysses is a tryhard philosopher dork who says bear and bull way too fuckin much and has unclear motives, mad difficulty spikes in a few spots Old World Blues Good: Lots of neat places to explore, the Sink is fun to fully upgrade, seeing the connections to the other DLCs is cool Bad: Psychic enemies, the longest and most annoying introduction ever, seriously do they have to talk for half an hour straight about lol-I'm-an-out-of-touch-excitable-scientist Honest Hearts Good: The Survivalist's messages, Keith Szarabajka as Joshua Graham, Zion looks nice, Follows Chalk is funny Bad: Fetch Quest: The DLC, what's even the story here other than this tribe is being attacked by that tribe halp --- What if you're PVP'ing and your opponent has the same outfit as you?!
