Don't know where that is. I'm kinda new at the game and I don't know where anything is beyond the Den.

Get Vic and Sulik from Klamath and use them as cannon fodder until you can get a few levels.

I'm stuck with Vic because I don't have near the amount of money to buy him.

Stealing works; in the scheme of things Sulik isn't all that pricey, and unlike Bethesda Fallouts there's no restriction on selling stolen items. I find The Den is where things start to ease up a little; Small Guns characters can pick up a .44 Magnum there, which is one of the best guns all the way to the midgame (and which can be upgraded to a neat little pistol for pretty much all the game). Just stick with it. As you head to Vault City you'll come across a sleepy little town called Modoc. Do everything you can there -- it's a lot of plentiful XP and some good items.

You wanna know something funny? I have literally never stolen in any RPG I've played. Never. I'm a really boring RPG player, I'm always a boy scout, so I never do anything evil, and that includes stealing. The one time I tried was in Fallout 1 when I tried getting a keycard from one of the technicians at the military base only to make the computers easier to deal with, but I kept failing so I told myself "fuck it" and ignored it.
It doesn't help that my Steal stat is 20%, so I don't think I'm successfully stealing anything anytime soon.

Some of the Dalouge options from 1/2 where quite fuck brutal as well, check out the wiki for Set from FO1 and The Hub's Water Merchants and you'll see what I mean.

A personal favorite in Modoc:
With a high enough Speech, you can convince the general store owner to cut off his pinkie finger to seal the agreement you have with him to investigate the Ghost Farm. Since you're a tribal, he takes it as the sort of thing a tribal would insist on. If you succeed, you have a few choices: stop him at the last second because you see he's serious about needing your help; let him do it and proceed with the quest ... or, after he cuts it off, make a stupid joke about grilling it with butter and garlic and how delicious it'll be. At which he'll calmly bandage the stump and haul out a shotgun to blow your head off.
They just don't make 'em like this anymore.

I want to play New Vegas, but I really don't feel like modding the shit out of it again

I think oxhorn is doing a good service tbh. Some of the lore looks interesting but not £50 to experience it myself interesting.
The raiders and their origin which he's touched on briefly in the mistresses of mystery line looks good.
Can't help but feel having actual fucking quests and npcs would've been better though.

I think the issue is that the lore here is kinda spoiling the rest of the series and just really dry.
They fleshed out the Brotherhood too much for my liking. Having the true original ideals of the organization as an enigma made the Brotherhood more interesting. Sure Maxson was disgusted by the experiments at Mariposa but was he trying to protect humanity from technology or interested in using it to save everybody? Now he's basically just Elder Lyons.
It's also just really dry compared to New Vegas and Fallout 2. You don't learn anything too insane or anything involving people who aren't just random smucks.

Good and bad news for Fallout Tale of Two Wastelands players.
They fixed quite a bit about it from the old 2.9.4 version, but a shit ton of mods broke, including many stock FNV mods that refuse to play nice that used on the 2.9.4 build.
For TTW specific stuff confirmed to work, go here:
https://taleoftwowastelands.com/viewforum.php?f=55
For stock FNV mods, texture replacers and things that don't require plugin files will still work like before, but if it uses a plugin of any sort, test it and see if it causes a CTD. Saving it in the GECK in TTW format like suggested on the TTW forums is recommended, especially if it's an FNV mod made on an older version of the FNV GECK.
If it's FO3 mod you want to play nice with TTW, go here and follow these instructions:

Have you been to The Den? With high charisma there's an easy short quest chain you can get there from

EDIT: I personally love Fallout 2's early game difficulty. Fallout 1 feels too easy and dull to me nowadays though that's probably because I've played it so much.

Fallout 1 has its moments -- the shootouts in The Hub where you rescue the initiate and get the .223 pistol are surprisingly brutal -- but yeah, there's a charm to the early stages of 2, up until you hit NCR and really start to ramp up. Personally, I miss the nervewracking trek from The Den to Vault City, which originally took me hours to do without getting TPKed. I really believe that's why Modoc is there: just so you can have a safe spot to rest. Sadly, the speed of your journey is affected by how fast your computer is, so these days it's usually no sweat.

Fallout 1-2 get stupidly easy once you get the hang of combat. Shooting and running around a corner is overpowered.
Defeated the Lieutenant that way... the Gattling laser you get from that makes defeating the master and his armies though battle pretty easy too.

Do you play with the Restoration patch? I haven't for very long, it's been a long time though
Yeah lol finding easy exploits is half the fun of these games, hello Fireball spell in Baldur's Gate.

Clear out the rats in trapper town and you can find a 10mm. You can solve all your problems by doing the quest for the female led gang in the Den to take over the church. You get a whole gang at your back to do the job and afterwards you can loot all the bodies and get a shitload of guns and ammo. You can happily do that quest with just a spear because you don't need to do very much at all, especially if you have Sulik to help.
