Day 63 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I’ve been playing until I forget to post Screenshots

The game is Fallout New Vegas. I’m going to mark this I beat Old World Blues today. I fought the giant robo-scorpion (I had to use up all my grenades left over from the death claw quarry to do it). I ended up lying and saying I was Mobius in order to beat it peacefully. I think for now I’m going to scavenge Stimpaks and other supplies before heading onto The Sierra Madre

NV ate soooo much of my life when it launched.

I'd never played a fallout game before.. but my local supermarket was selling it cheap as part of an offer with other games I was buying anyway. And I was thinking this games just launched and I'm picking it up for next and nothing.! Sweet.

Took a while for it to click with me. But once it did.... Oof. Looking back. I think if I'd have discovered the maze of repcon any earlier than I did I might have give up.

Those scorpions in the big empty are the worst enemies in the entire game. Always dumping entire mags into them just to whittle their hp down...

One of my favorite things about this DLC is how they made the legendary bloatfly be one of the toughest enemies to kill. This bug has double the HP of the legendary deathclaw and can one shot you if you go in unprepared. I love this game so much.

Very excited for you to take on the Sierra Madre! It's a pretty divisive DLC, people either really love it or really hate it. I personally really enjoyed it, but there are certainly parts of it where I can see how they'd make some people dislike it.
