Uioy
How did act man like our reply
Well I can finally go quietly now, The Act Man can count on that.
28:46 Not sure if this has been mentioned anywhere else in the comments, but NV does have a quick-select "wheel". It's just the part with binding weapons and items that's a bit... hidden. Hover over the item you'd like to quick-select, hold the number you want it bound to and click the item in the inventory. It really helps keep the flow of the action during fights
I remembered Skyrim has this, so I figured it was worth a try in NV. I was so glad to find out it's in the game, saves a lot of awkward mid-fight pausing and searching in your inventory
Yeah I’m surprised that if he even plays the game actually because it makes zero sense how he wouldn’t know
@@o7Laboratory right? i had to pause the video and go to the comments cause like how are you gonna complain about something that's in the game as if it's not?
yeah...i mean it's how change ammo, too. how do you completely miss that?

I played Skyrim and fall out 4, years ago as a young kid/man. Over the last few months I felt very bored. Work, gym, wife, kids, repeat. I missed gaming, I almost forgot I used to play and enjoy video games since life kind of took me as a prisoner. I bought the series x last week and searched the Microsoft store. My wife made fun of me saying “I didn’t know you liked video games omg”. I told her I wanted something to just relax to…I was gonna just download fallout 4 again and replay it but I saw New Vegas for $7. I was skeptical at first since it seemed so old but man.. this game has captured me. It gave me that feeling Skyrim did all those years ago. I think about it at work, I wanna play when I’m out shopping, I look forward to Friday so I can stay up until 3 am playing. New Vegas made me love gaming again and it’s made me remember apart of my that I forgot.
PLEASE play oblivion if you havent. its better than skyrim in every way except graphics and i will die on that hill.
@@remrem-gx3mlI'll die right there with you lol. Only thing Skyrim really did better was the combat feels slightly better. Still nowhere near what you can achieve with a few mods though so I don't give Bethesda much credit for that considering literally everything else was a downgrade. Even the voice acting somehow got worse even though it was mostly the same people in each of the games lol.
@@remrem-gx3mloblivion has horrible gameplay and graphics .. it’s hard to play it although the story is better than Skyrim

Also all trespassers in your room must be eliminated. I will leave you to prepare.

Game sucks. Graphic where bad even when it was new.
Well, Benny is dead now. Rest in peace Matt Perry, you will be missed!
The fact there even is an ending to this game is a weird feeling. The sky feels like the limit when exploring the world, it’s quests, leveling your character, etc. Just picked this game up and just scratching the surface of the game it’s already one of my favorites. This video put into words everything and more that I would never be able to say about this game.
I’d love to experience this game for the first time again. I’ve played it regularly for 13 years now and still love it
Yeah but even an "ending" to the game is not a true ending. It takes many different pllaythroughs to see everything in the game

One small detail I like about the intro video (before the narration) is that it presents all the factions. We start at the Lucky 38 (Mr. House's home and central location in the game). The we see some NCR troopers in the Strip and then an NCR ranger next to McCarran. Then we see Legion soldiers. And finally we see Benny and the Khans (representing the independent route). It's an awesome intro that illustrates the central theme in the game. It's not the wasteland like in FO3, but the factions and people that inhabit it that matter.
RIP matt perry ❤ Gotta love new vegas. Tidbit about vault 22. In one of the dlc, you grt to read about a mans life - a dude that was there when the bombs dropped and his life afterward until his death at lile age 70-something. He mentions folks from vault 22 in there. Real great stuff. Even if it is through notes.
Benny's suit is a perfect analogy for the morality in this game. It seems simply black and white from afar, but once you get too close, you'll see plenty of gray in a lot of areas.

I’ve been playing this game since the day it came out and I never realized after all these years, that the goodsprings quest is meant to be a simplified walkthrough on how the main quest goes. Mind blown
It's just an elaborate and well made tutorial that shows most of the combat and RPG mechanics of the game

From the bizarre Sierra madre to the lonely journey
Time for a Fallout TV show review ngl
49:09 Woah! You just glossed over the big enchilada!!! The big epic battle at the end is the best part! Literally the war reward experience! You head off and witness the choices and influences you picked play out in the final epic battle and you still shape the ending your own way. the allies you pick literally help you out or are absent because of your influence. In the ending you get everything thrown at you, especially if you choose to sabotage both in numerous ways. It's a real mission taking place with several paths and outcomes even at the end of the story. You get bombed, stabbed, chopped, gunned down, blasted, torched, zapped, you name it, it all happens just so you could get your big final satisfaction of perseverance!! Nothing feels better than getting your robots to finally slaughter your way through or go the lone route and trick everyone or just blast everything completely ruining everything for everyone. Even your allies/companions will have something to say, even if they are dead!! lol they'll still give their opinion on what you did and how it affected their world. It's just the best to shape the end your way. You even get the big bad boss fight BUT you can also choose a cinematic deeper satisfying ending where you pose some serious logical questions that make your opponent think and reconsider everything in an instant. Very reminiscent of a tv drama where the protagonist can finally let go of revenge and in my opinion sometimes much more fulfilling. And if that wasn't enough for you then you can also do the same against their opposition as well ultimately deciding the fate of both sides right up until the very end. It's up to you to choose whether to back stab them, fight it out to, or in the same fashion negotiate with reasoning your final decision on the outcome!! In reality the game's ending is the culmination of the entire experience from the beginning and all the way up till your last playthrough experience. It's like the encore of a show where everyone comes back just for the final taste and it's all just for you to enjoy and decide what to do with it. :) The ending battle is the best because it was completely focused and catered to you exclusively. It seems like it would be a bad idea to design it this way because challenge is the best reward and realistically endings aren't always good outcomes but this's the beauty in having the world still designed this way anyway because at the end of the day it's a fantasy first and you're not playing into the fantasy to come out with nothing. Even if you choose to end it that way you still had an impact and nothing is more satisfying than to have been integral to the story you wove and participated in. You could have been a footnote or you could have been the historical legend or new mysterious myth. Very few fantasies out there can give you this satisfaction. Usually they keep you locked to their story whether you like it or not but in this fantasy you can say no and see what happens next. This is an experience like no other and even the newest iterations and past achievements can't seem to topple or overshadow it. New Vegas is a freak phenomenon that had no business being as good as it is. It's not even a sequel and yet it had a better story and deeper impact. It wasn't anything really new yet it felt like a revolution in gaming. It's outdated and glitchy as hell and made in a rush giving you every reason to hate yet here we are years later still gushing over how awesome this experience is and just the fact that it's still not dead yet AND STILL being picked up and experienced all over again both by past owners and new owners alike. STILL!!! Play the game and play it for the final epic battle because you WON'T be disappointment!! ;)
On Hardcore difficulty if you recruit any allies and they die during the journey you get unique dialogue about their death in the end credits and the mark they left. Now that's dedication to the writing.
You get that too if you just kill them before recruiting them or pissing them off to the point they leave you
Not like anyone would actually pick default difficulty
@@Brandelwyn Why wouldn't I?
@@Tee_B I dont know... I never met anyone who did.
Sadly that’s the one thing that prevents me from playing hardcore mode. Ammo weight, managing food, water, sleep, that’s all whatever, the part that ruins it for me is companions being able to die.
A detail I really liked about the game is how the only "unkillable" character in the game (aside from children), Yes Man, can actually be killed, but always returns and says how he has like a gazillion body replacements around. Obsidian found a way to make a character's immortality not only canon, but plausible.
I can only imagine how good this game COULD HAVE BEEN if they were given proper time to polish it all up
The same for Victor. He died twice in my playthrough and still appeared at the Strip with the same explanation.
Don't forget the vendertron.
@@Hammer56Time and console limitations. It’s been said the strip + freeside were supposed to be completely open with zero loading screens just like in the CGI trailer, but consoles couldn’t handle that. Mods fix this and it makes a world of difference.
@@ViPER5RT10 I modded the absolute fuck out of NV with all sorts of quality of life, graphical, and gameplay mods then played all the way through and all the dlc. One of the best games I have ever played easily
This definitely needs a part 2 cause their so much more to talk about the companions of the DLC, even the history that's set up in the game, and the positives and negatives of which faction is the right fit to take over the Mojave
if you ever decide to replay the game, try using the number keys to quick select items. when you hold them down in the pipboy menu then click the item you want, it binds it to that hotkey. 2 is always used for swapping ammo types, however.
I will never forget wiping out all of the powder gangers in the prison, and walking into nipton to find that guy with his legs crippled in the shop, and he goes “I just had my legs crippled, and now the grim fucking reaper of the powder gangers is standing in front of me” or something like that. I thought it was so cool that they had different dialogue for your standing with the factions
Boxcars, the 2nd winner of the Nipton "lottery" calls you a Grim Reaper if you are vilified with the Powder Gangers. That's a pretty badass moniker.
That that made it one of the best RPGs for that reason right there
So true. And if/when you're playing a female character Boxcars will also add, "What do you have against us b***h!?"
That line still kills me everytime I hear it. "First I get my legs smashed, then in walks the Power Gangers grim fuckin' reaper!"
That was exactly the line......you never forgot.
33:54 Fun Fact: The actual town of Goodsprings in Nevada has a Fallout New Vegas Festival every year on the game's anniversary. One festival they did got 500 attendees and was such a good boost for the town's economy. They plan to do it every year from then on.
Correction: They held the first festival this year. And still got 500 people to attend in a small town in the middle of a desert. They want to make it an annual event.

Press 6 and enjoy that sweet sound of jet inhaling And if you double press button set to weapon, it will unequip the weapon, leaving you with bare fists.
They gave them 18 months? Imagine what they could’ve done with three years.
I think it was cool and smart to use the old assets from the cancel fallout 3 van Buren It really felt like a real fallout sequel of the original

Awesome video. Excellent research. This is BY FAR, the very best review I've seen, with the most complete explanation, comparison, and in-depth analysis.
When I was playing the NV for the first time, I've stumbled upon a quest about rescuing NCR soldiers from a mine. I went in, killed some legion boys, opened the cages and... the quest ended. This freaked me out, because it seemed too simple. So I reloaded and sneaked in to explore the mine before saving the soldiers. Found nothing. Then I put on some legion armor and tried speaking to the legion troops in the mine. Still nothing! This quest was driving me crazy, so I resorted to googling all the possible outcomes. And, surprise-surprise, I instantly found out that the alternative solutions were cut from the final release. And then it hit me. The rest of the game was so AWESOME, that a simple quest "Do exactly the thing you were asked to do and get rewarded" didn't fit in. To this day I've never experienced anything like that. New Vegas is still the best RPG ever made.
I remember, I walked into Caesar's camp on my first playthrough and started blasting, and kept thinking, "there's no way I can just kill this guy, he's the main villain of the game" and then Boone blew his head off right in front of me. That's when I realized this game was truly something special.
I was always a big fan of Boone unintentionally jump-scaring me by blowing the brains out of enemies that I didn't even know were there xD I'd just be walking somewhere and suddenly the screen jump-zooms to some slow-mo footage of a legionarie's head exploding from 12,000 feet in the opposite direction. I'd turn around in time to see Boone running back to me, having snuck off without my noticing.

And despite all the good stuff mentioned, one of the biggest things not mentioned was how much depth there was in the ending that proves your choices did matter.

Hey Act Man, great video. Love these videos. I know it's been a while since this video came out, but I hope things have gotten better for you as far as dealing with personal issues. Keep pushing, brother.

Most memorable (and funny for me at least) was when I forgot or maybe didn't realize what Boone meant that he would "kill on site" any Legion he sees. So I go to Nipton, with Boone, about to talk to Vulpes Inculta when suddenly I start gaining Infamy with the Legion and the Legion start shooting at me. I was then that I realized "oh....Boone wasn't kidding, noted"😅

There actually is a peaceful option between the NCR and the Brotherhood of Steel. It requires you to complete the Brotherhood questlines fully and keep McNamara as Elder. Once the NCR tells you to go wipe them out, tell McNamara about it and he'll tell you to tell the NCR that they want to assist in the Battle of Hoover Dam.
Personally I think House is the best choice because you end up as his right-hand man, with enough authority to change New Vegas however you see fit while still benefiting from having a governing body and House's restoration of the old world infrastructure. Basically it's the Yes Man ending, but with the most technologically advanced society in the wasteland as opposed to total chaos.
Benny: "I shot you In the head" My 3 intelligence ass: I got better
My 1 intelligence ass: "Ha! My brain is a very small target!"
47:30 what is that backround song, i haven't heard that in over 9 years
More like: 3 Int: Me got butter!
@Green The Courier w/ 10 Intelligence: Did you know that if you position your head in a certain way you can increase your chances of surviving a headshot? Benny: What in the goddamn. . .I shot you twice. The Courier w/ 10 Intelligence: Yeah and a super mutant I encountered shot me over 28 times with a minigun and I survived. Think you got what it takes? Benny: Quite a story, kid, but your luck's about to run out. 'Tries to pull out Maria and feels nothing' Huh? The Courier w/ 10 Intelligence: Lucky or not, I'm not out of tricks 'Pulls out Maria and points it at Benny'. . .or bullets. Benny: Oh sh- The Courier w/ 10 Intelligence: 'Shoots Benny in the head twice and blows his head to smithereens' Hear Death's bells. Ring-a-Ding-Ding!
[Black widow] I’m a courier, remember? Don’t you want me to handle your package?
Fun fact: You *can* quick select your items, its just that nothing ever tells you! In the inventory hold a numerical key other than 2 and select an item and that key becomes a quick select key for the item! Why not 2? Because that's the hotkey to swap ammo type. Oh yeah, nothing tells you about that either.
yea was mind blown when i found that out by accidentally pressing 2 one day
How can he make an hour long video when he doesn't even know how to use the three seashells?
How did he not see the hot key fr
I mean, the game doesn't "explicitely" tell you, but the option 'is' there. On my PS3 controller, it tells me to use RB (basically R1) for quick select. Then you just press on the D-pad which item you wanna use.
The game includes a how-to-play file. I guess I'm the only one to ever read it.
Excelente vídeo Nando, foi pontual nos tópicos citados, terminou quando precisou e ainda deixou uma informação com fonte e fatos 👏
I think my biggest gripe with newer BGS and Obsidian games, is the lack of depth in the character creation, attributes, stats, and the leveling system. They just keep simplifying that aspect, to where shit doesn't even feel like an RPG anymore. Like how are we getting less mechanics in that regard with every single entry. Like NV and Morrowind were not perfect games by any means, but the level of freedom to really create a distinct character, with no real single best choice, is just unparalleled in today's environment.
The Act Man : "having a menu that does everything" Hotkey: am i a joke to you?
I was like "uhhhh" and went to the comments to see how many people caught that.
@@Mis73rRand0m yeah lol
Yea............. Even 13 year old me abused the hotkey.
Yeah i was like tf bro
Facts I was wondering too that poor man
I like how you perfectly replicated the Khan holding the shovel’s weird, stupid smile.
Fantastic creation, your video actually does Fallout New Vegas and has reawakened my desire to play. Thank YOU!
Jumping around in slow motion makes you wander when act man do a review of the WHOLE MAX PAYNE SERIES
The fact that Act Man didn’t even touch on the dlcs (arguably better than the base game) in a 50 minute video just shows how great a game this is
hard to say honest hearts or dead money is better than the base game
never tried the dlcs or knew much about them i just know that the main game is a really good one and fallout 3 too dlcs for me are usually worse than the main game itself
@@D00000T Well, I suppose it depends on how you look at it. I remember Old World Blues being pretty great for how it amps the "Science" aspect of the game up to a hundred, with some pretty good weaponry and, a personal favorite, plenty of nods to the Venture Brothers cartoon. Dead Money was another great spin on the "Heist" story type. With interesting characters, setting and how it was very survival focused. The base game certainly remains an outstanding piece of architecture on how to make an RPG, but the expansions certainly added quite a bit.
@@Micecheese I cannot recommend the DLCs for New Vegas more, they are amazing for the simple fact that they are so cohesively connected. Themes, characters, and storylines are super interconnected in each DLC whilst still being strong enough on their own to allow the player to play each in whatever order they desire and still get something unique out of each. Dead Moneys horror atmosphere, Honest Hearts exploration, Old World Blues technological zaniness, and The Divides brutal journey, each DLC is amazing. Trust me when I say these DLCs are more then worth doing. Quite honestly I personally consider them, as a package, the best DLC ever created.
New vegas has some of the best dlc in the bethesda franchise's

Man, the intro to New Vegas is one of the coolest ones I've ever seen in gaming.
It’s criminal that this game doesn’t have a remake in the chamber by now...
Or better yet, a sequel by obsidian
there is a remaster being made by the fans Called Fallout 4:New Vegas
It doesn’t need one

Here's a little genius touch that I don't think anyone has pointed out. Every notable quest is greeted with that iconic text fade and an ominous low sound of approaching thunder. Brilliant.
