Fallout series

What makes you think NV modding is a matter of need?
A lot? There are certain things that I have issues with and I have means to fix them. I mean yes, obviously NV doesn't really NEED mods, but it has its fair issues. but I do think Fallout modding is best when focused on being vanilla. If your content is indistinguishable from vanilla, its an A+ mod in my book.

I'd also say that if you haven't played vanilla NV then you don't really "get" modding and cannot fully understand it. Its like Brutal Doom versus vanilla Doom. To certain point, you're not even playing NV anymore. It also doesn't help that more often than not mod count correlates to how insufferable someone is to interact with.

I'd like FO4's power armor if it weren't for the feet. The big stompy elephant feet might be more "realistic" but they don't look as slick.
I take issue with the hands mostly, I'm not opposed to the robot hands but I would've preferred if only the default rusty versions used it while B versions and above used the gloves from FO3.

The Videogame of Theseus. How different from vanilla New Vegas can you mod it, yet still call it New Vegas?
 
You people are like little babies. I spend 15 years modding New Vegas and yet I am currently playing the xbox 360 unmodded copy for shits and giggles. Unlike Fallout 3, you can easily jump into vanilla New Vegas surprisingly well, the game is rather balanced and if you ignore the constant bugs and technical issues, works just fine. Goes to show you what a difference it makes for your game to be made by talented people who actually know how CRPGs work, vs people who only know how to make one game and make it worse everytime until we get a disaster like Starfield.

I should've specified beyond qol stuff. NV obviously requires less modding than something like FO4, because NV doesn't suck.

I've been playing NV since it came out, mate. I got it on the 360 for Christmas. I wouldn't mod it unless I knew the game like the back of my hand. It isn't like I download 200 waifu tacticool tiddy mods that's what Fallout 4 is for. I just enjoy flashy animations that aren't too impractical, the fanmade recreations of Fallout 1/2 armor sets, the AK-112, and Someguy2000.

I haven't even played the damn game with mods yet, it was on PS3 I wasted triple digit hours on it. Even that version is a great game.

Edit: on that note I'd like some mod recommendations. I don't care that much for visual stuff.

I didn't mean for it to call you out specifically, I trust your guys judgement. I was more so bemoaning the NV community at large.

I can understand that. It wouldn't be nearly as bad if the modders weren't so full of themselves. If Xilandro just made his tacticool tarkov leaning mods and didn't have a billion BPD panic attacks I don't think NV modding would have this sort of reputation.
Could be worse though, he could be Elianora.

Didn't know who you were talking about and looked it up.

To add more context, she's the plague of Nexus. She makes house mods for Skyrim and FO4 that are decent but not very impressive and yet is somehow lauded as one of the greats. For this reason, many suspect that the CEO of Nexus Mods wants to fuck her.

Can't even laugh at this. This is just sad, definitely got molested at some point. They need a LOT of prayer, that's for sure.
No, what's sad is that Nexus niggers want to fuck this thing desperately, lmfao
That and that she's a darling of the Bethesda modding community. That's how down-bad they are right now, the photos were taken from a meet up Bethesda did for the best modders they had for Starfield, modders that are currently making paid mods that the last few Starfield players are paying for. Basically, Creation Club for Starfield. They really couldn't find anyone better willing to make shitty fetch quests or house mods other than Elinora.

So, that thing is a over-looked piece of crap failure which the only trait is just being a troon?
Talks a lot about society.
