    There’s actually a newly found exploit where if you time your Pipboy button as your leaving the beginning area when you get the pop up message asking if you want to change your character.

Coming over the top of a hill and seeing absolutely nothing for "miles" was such a desolate feeling. still gives me anxiety to think about lol. such a good game.

      @The_Keeper ปีที่แล้ว +43

      "Set up to fail" might be overstating it, but they kinda got shafted.
      Obsidian got hired to do New Vegas, and given a severely limited budget, and only 18 months to do it in.
      And on top of that, there was a stipulation in the contract that if the game didn't get over so and so many percent on the reviews on average, they wouldn't get any bonuses.
      ...They were 2% below.
      This is why the story of New Vegas is actually good, but the game itself is still janky as all hell.
      And probably also why there aren't enough money in the world to convince Obsidian to ever work with Bethesda again...

    Hey Spiff, love the content. There’s a bonus exploit with the unlimited exp glitch in Goodsprings. If you perform the glitch without leaving the tutorial area, and pick certain perks while levelling by this method such as: toughness, jury rigging, meltdown and many others except experience based and SPECIAL training perks. When you’re finished with the levelling and get the exit tutorial prompt, if you rebuild your character you will be returned to level one and slowly go through every level up again, but the aforementioned perks remain, essentially meaning you get double perks and instantly become a god amongst ghouls! Perfectly balanced!
