I want to Play Falout new Vegas again but never played any of the dlc's. Whats the best one?

LR

OWB
For me, it's Fallout: Jackie Chan
all of them are worth your time nigr
I think Old World Blues was the best. The others just feel bleak, and kind of boring.

I really really really like all of them. Hh is the weakest
>>379071472
>LR
>best gameplay
It's the one DLC that is literally riddled with scripted events. How are scripted events in a completely linear DLC in a game that is about open exploration and freedom of choice the best gameplay?
Are you sure you even like New Vegas?
>>379072420
Fighting deathclaws is fun you nerd.
>>379071257
Old World Blues is best for players who like the wacky Fallout elements and also open exploration.
Dead Money is best for people who like the survival aspect of NV.
HH and LR is best for people with mental disorders.

Unlike FO3, I would say none of the New Vegas DLCs are actively bad. Worst for me was either Lonesome Road or OWB. OWB felt too easy and dialogue-heavy, but had some cool features and was the most lighthearted for people who wanted a change in tone. Lonesome Road was linear as fuck and full of pseudo-intellectual rambling dialogue I just didn't give a fuck about. Getting another SPECIAL point at the end of LR was useful though I guess.
Having been to Zion myself, I really appreciated Honest Hearts' Utah setting. I was underwhelmed by the new factions, weapons, and story, but it was a nice little distraction from the main plot of New Vegas.
Dead Money was the strongest of the DLCs IMO. Loved the story, loved the setting, loved the creepy atmosphere, and it was easily the most difficult of the DLCs due to the courier starting without his gear. It was also really rewarding because the fully upgraded holorifle is probably the best weapon in the game. Even the massive exploit/glitch at the end that lets you get away with all of the gold was fun to pull off. Really made it feel like I was getting away with a massive heist.

is Gun Runners Arsenal any good?
>>379073145
Not bad but HHs environment and exploration gets pretty stale on replays when you notice there are like 4 caves and one shack in the entire map worth exploring. Everything else is just spent walking and shooting at ants.
>>379071472
The gameplay in LR was absolutely horrid. IT was completely linear and enemy detection was bullshit, going with 100 sneak and stealth boy and i still could not sneak up on marked men.
>>379073212
you get katana which is a fucking op melee wep. especially coupled with knockdown perk
even alpha male deathclaws cant do shit on you because you just spam attack and they cant get up
>>379073447
>i still could not sneak up on marked men
That's because most encounters with them are scripted.Which is the dumbest shit i can possibly imagine.I genuinely can not believe why somebody thought that was smart.
It completely defeats player agency.Being carefull, being prepared, being sneaky, none of it matters. You just pass a spawnmarker and the scripts start running no matter what.
>Most potential/most disappointing:
Honest Hearts
It starts off strong imo for about 30 seconds, you're escorting that caravan and then suddenly you have to survive that ambush
After that they managed to make a whole new environment where you participate in the ooga-booga people war underwhelming. Only crispy jesus was really interesting, especially if doing subsequent plays, but otherwise the tribes are so samey and lame. You got the savage ooga-boogas, the Joshua's tribe, and then the pussy canyon dwellers. Would have been neat if they fleshed them out some more and let you even choose sides rather than "do you want to fight White Legs or pussy out and run from White Legs"
>>379071257
I'm reinstalling NV again and finally doing that skinhead minority genocider run with 1 INT I've been planning
It will probably fuck up everything because every single faction in the game has blackies in it but I digress, i must remind the wasteland of the white might whatever it takes. My plan is to instantly clobber in any negro NPC's face in when I meet one. That means Easy Pete's got to go. At least House shouldn't get too mad at me.
Going with a melee build solely using louisville slugger. Should I install some realistic damage mod or something?

Does the Legion have niggers?
Mods for a Legion playthrough

>OWB
>Worst thread
I like Dead Money's story the most but apart from that it's easily the worst DLC.
>>379074457
does the Legion really have blacks?
>>379074631
>>379074769
Ulysses was a member of the legion at least.
>>379074769
Not him but I was surprised too, I remember seeing one at their encampment right before the battle of Hoover Dam when I did a Legion run
>>379074631
>>379074769
I actually went and looked into the GECK and yeah.Officers, even.

Easily OWB

DM, but OWB comes close just by having really good writing
>Best Character
what does this even mean?
>Worst DLC
Lonesome Road, but just because HH looks really nice
>>379075589
If you need someone to literally rape and pillage you get help from the best.

Anyway, since this thread is here, I wanted to ask if going into this game unmodded is a good idea for a first playthrough. I've never played any of the Fallout games, and I want to get New Vegas when the summer Steam sale comes. I don't know if this game is like STALKER which does need some mods to really be at its best, or if it works just fine vanilla.
>>379076401
I think it is fine without mods, but i also played it at release on a 360 and thought that was fine
Put more than 200 hours into it and did several runs on 360, only did 1 run with the dlcs and then stopped
>>379076401
It's perfectly fine without mods, just a little ugly and stiff.
>>379076401
If you want to go unmodded then at the very least install the 4 stability mods people usually recomend. The game works fine at first unmodded but eventually it starts to crash as the save file gets older. The stability mods will fix that and make the game more stable in general. It doesent really need mods othervise, its a fine game without them. One mod some people recomend is JSawyer's mod. Its made by one of the devs but its not an official patch.

The stability mods are here i think: https://steamcommunity.com/app/22380/discussions/0/522730700736948013/

Thanks Anons. I'll look into those links.
>>379076401
even if you want to do a vanilla run there are some mods you should just install always
the absolute must haves no matter what are all the mods that simply make the game run better
4gb patch, anti stutter, anti crash etc...
beyond that there are many nice quality of life mods like enhanced first person camera, JIP companion menu and pretty much any UI overhaul that don't really affect the vanilla game at all but just make the game nicer to play

Fitting.
There is literally nothing fun or interesting about OWB. Don't bother downloading it
>>379077921
>anti /pol/ shitter
This is supposed to be a bad thing? /pol/ have repeatedly proven they do nothing on /v/ but derail threads or start threads of their own that have little to do with video games.

>>379073145
Don't listen to this guy lr has some fun parts, you get to completely destroy a faction if you want at the end which is pretty sick but straight up tho fallout 3 blew nv's dlc out of the water
