Great game overall. Higher longevity than Fallout 3 and has one of the best DLCs in it. Other than that, the mods the community offer are more expansive and mods on FO3 can be ported to NV with a simple program.

If you're too scared to buy the DLCs of FONV because of experience from FO3's DLCs (which were rather lackluster), the former has it way different. Its DLCs add so much variety to the game (bar the starter packs). Most of the DLCs in the game expand on the story or the people surrounding it without being too focused on it, bar the latest DLC released.

The game offers a lot more choices and sometimes a bit of diffuculty in choosing one since they added a new factor, Reputation. Maybe some won't care about specific NPC relationship, but reputation is something to really think about since it will affect other NPCs greatly, which could either make the game easier or harder.

Survival difficulty is actually entertaining. Food and water in the environment isn't too scarce, but it's enough that you'd have to spend some of your caps on buying some for the road. Though, once you figure out where to find the maiz farms, it gets a whole lot easier - it will be difficult though if you're roleplaying as a eternal good guy.

This is a great RPG while also maintaining to be a great shooter as well. Puts Fallout 4 to shame.
