Tale of Two Wastelands (TTW). Combines Fallout 3 into your New Vegas game, where you can play both games and their 10 expansions with a single character in one experience. Rebalances F3 to match NV, brings over all the features of New Vegas into F3 (hardcore, crafting, ironsights, companion features etc etc). Fixes thousands and thousands of bugs across both games. Even if you're just running New Vegas, this actually runs better than just New Vegas does by itself. Brings ironsights to F3 of course, but also fixes New Vegas's ironsights to actually look good and modern (adds ironsights to weapons that didn't have them even in NV, like most of the energy weapons). Does a bunch more stuff. Definitely the most premium way to play either of these games.

Project has been around a long time, but this particular update has been almost 4 years in the making, it's huge.

Crazy that this update took so long

Like it was finished literally almost 6 months ago and it took them that long to just make an installer

Just quality of life stuff, bug fixes, balancing. They've overhauled most of the games 3d models to run a lot better. We had TTW already for a few years, but there was a lot of things that were still a bit messy between the two games, especially in terms of balance. . It's a much more cohesive experience now.

Remember when that years-in-the-making fan mod/expansion for New Vegas came out and it was mediocre and featured several weird fetish moments?

More or less 100%'d both games in one huge playthrough a while back. It was a really good time, though I'm pretty sure my save file got pretty bloated in the end which reduced performance somewhat.
Not sure what exactly this update would do, since everything worked perfectly already, at least for me.
Actually, the only bug I found was that one of the Vaults didn't count for the "Vaults discovered" challenge, and that's, uh, not exactly major.

I mean other than the writing and acting that mod was actually pretty good. But yeah, the writing was shit. But there is a team doing a total overhaul to fix the cringe, will probably take another few years, hopefully it will be better.

That's awesome to hear it worked all the way through. I have yet to do a complete playthrough cause I've been waiting on this update for a few years. I assume it should just run even better now.

Well, seeing as Skywind is a total remake akin to Black Mesa, I think it may take awhile. Honestly I'm not that interested, cause Morrowind is structurally so different from Oblivion/Skyrim that they'll have to change it a lot to make it fit Skyrim's mechanics. It will basically just be a new game for people that like Skyrim to kind of experience MWs story.

Oblivion on the other hand is structured a lot like Skyrim, so I think it would be great in the Skyrim engine. And the Skyblivion project is not a complete remake but actually is utilizing some level of conversion similar to this Fallout project. Still, it is a bigger project than this TTW(F3 and NV are on almost the exact same version of the engine, OB and SK are obviously not), they are remaking several aspects of the game, they just don't have to do absolutely everything. So honestly I could see both those taking some years yet.

For F3 and NV? I don't think to any dramatic extent. Maybe some mods to get the camera working in VR, but I doubt anything else.

Ah, damn it, I forgot one pretty shitty thing that happened, for some reason my house in Megaton got completely reset, containers and all. Apparently it's only happened to me and one other guy, but hopefully that's been fixed.

You now remember Fallout 3 Super Mutants in TTW without the Super Mutant Balance plugin active.

I finished Fallout 3 and got far in NV but never finished it.

Playing through these I think makes me realize that I'm not really a fan of the Fallout games

But I'm curious- do you choose which campaign to play first? What is the in-game reason to go from East Coast to Vegas or vice versa?

I think by default you do the regular Fallout 3 start, and can take a train to the Mojave later

They have a supposed underground train that you can take from DC pretty early on whenever you want to. WHen you do that, you get a "3 Years Later" message and then the New Vegas game starts, so it leaves it open ended as to what you decide your story is in that time. The timeline is doesn't really make sense in the context of NV but it mostly works. I would honestly like to see a mod that fleshes out that transition better story wise, maybe with some quests or another expansion or something like that to bridge the gap.

Should work with most up to date New Vegas mods, it's all running on New Vegas. Fallout 3 mods have to be converted, a lot of people bring over popular ones, you'll see them on the NV Nexus marked "TTW" usually in their title.

I don't remember the name, but there is a program that can turn some games into a VR game.

Out of curiosity, what changed compared to the old version? Can't find a changelog anywhere.
