My Fallout: New Vegas Runs

I'm pretty sure I nuked most of my save files, but I might have final saves for some of these characters on my old pc. There might have been more runs, but I don't remember any other to be honest. This is easily one of the best games I've ever played and I regret not getting a new pc 10 years ago to be able to run it with mods. Fuck!!! I also did a dozen runs in the original Fallout, but those are much harder to remember.

#1 (2015) - ???

My first run. I sided with Yes-Man and missed half the quests, but finished the DLCs. This was a very half assed run, I missed most of the game.

#2 (2016) - ???

A modded run, featuring AWOP, More Perks and that one mod that adds a girl follower, maybe something else (it was someone else's modpack). I got bored and didn't finish.

#3 (2016) - ???

A thorough run. It was amazing, but something unrelated diverted my attention and I never finished it. What a shame. It was a real blast.

#4 (2017) - ???

A kill-everything run. I don't believe I bothered finishing the game, but it was one hell of a run. Melee+Sneak had me decapitating everyone and destroying the Mojave.

#5 (2020) - ???

Revisiting the game + discovering ALL locations. Not sure who I sided with or if I finished it at all, but I did do the DLCs again. I fucking hated them!!!

#6 (11.2025) - Brick

Unarmed Legionaire run on Hard + Survival mode. First run on an actual licensed copy and with patches.

#7 (11.2025) - Mr.Handsome

A Mr.House run in which I tried to min-max my skills. CHA 0 and INT 9, rushing to earn enough money to buy implants before leveling up at all. Lots and lots of exploration and fun. Basically a successful re-do of the 2016 thorough run, I finished 95% of the quests (didn't do some that I hate + the legion was wiped without Boone, locking me out of his quest)... Cass also refused to let me do her quest at first because I stole too much garbage to get those implants early on. Mr.Handsome was a sniper who eventually moved on to using an Anti-Materiel Rifle. Also I did the DLCs and hated them, as per usual.

#8 (11.2025) - Erick

A modded NCR run (though I did far fewer favors for them compared to #7). AWOP + AWOP Rumble patch + FPGE + Uncut Wasteland + TLD as the big mods, some graphical enchancements, more perks reimagined, plus lots of smaller mods. Erick, the plasma loving pulverizer of all raiders, actually had melee boosting traits that lowered all ranged damage by 15%, and to top it all off, EVE and More Perks = can't harvest ammo back from goo piles / ash piles, meaning no infinite ammo for me. Vendors quickly ran out of supplies, forcing me to rely on melee in late game. Forced Veronica and Cass into revealing costumes and sent them to collect dust at the Lucky 38, nearly got lost in a complex underground system added by AWOP, fled from a giant scorpion boss called Jim, FINALLY exterminated the fiends... Very fun but also a very flawed run. In the battle for Hoover Dam, Erick's super mega enclave power armor was broken, all laser / plasma guns ran out of ammo, and thus, Legate and his crew had to be beaten into submission with a nuka-cola sign. A decisive victory!!!
