I've got a guns-centric character, an energy weps character, and an unarmed/melee weaps character. Which would you guys recommend I run through this DLC with first?
Old World Blues - New Vegas DLC
- Thread starter MiracleOfSound
- Start date

Jesus, my character is level 40 and this DLC is hard as hell (Granted I am playing on hard but still) Lobotomites have freaking brush guns and shiskebabs, and take quite a few shots before going down.
I'm probably not going to get it. Dead Money was needlessly constrictive, and Honest Hearts was just shit.
Wait till you start fighting the Robo-scorpions....SeriousIssues said:
This is neither. It's wide open in a huge area, full of stuff to explore and has some hilarious characters. Much better than the first two.DannyJBeckett said:
Yep. Even on Normal some of the fights are bastard hard... scorpions and skull dudes are tough as nails.AlternatePFG said:

Energy Weapons for sure. You get lots of new ones.
First thing I thought when I saw the lobotomites is that they are very well equipped to kill. It's quite a challenge, my armour broke and then my back up armour broke, so woeful.AlternatePFG said:
I've found a new appreciation of the Gatling Laster. Found one of the corpse of those skeleton-things and it's really helpful for weearing down those scorpions. I got into a fight with like 15 lobotomites and skeleton-things and somehow survived, don't ask me how.
I think I'm going to finish all the quests, go back to the Mojave to resupply then return because I'm running out of supplies VERY fast.
Edit: Did anyone else find Higgs Village to be VERY creepy? I just felt paranoid the entire time I was in it, no enemies, dark houses. Felt like something out of Silent Hill.

Actually, no. I just kinda sweeped through the houses and got out as fast as I could. xD I have a quest that tells me to go back there, so I'll probably check it out.DustyDrB said:
I really need to pick up a PSN card so I can download this.
The fact that Jim Ward is in it already makes it a must buy, not to mention Ulysses (if that is wrong don't say anything, I don't want anything spoiled).
Also why is everyone judging the DLCs by the loot they have, I usually hate to say this but if you play the DLC hoping only for loot then you're playing it wrong. Dead Money was primarily focused on storyline and characters, which it did perfectly.

For having walking eyes and James Urbaniak, this is the best DLC for New Vegas by far.
However, I wish I had brought the EMP gun.

I just started the character I'm taking there yesterday.
It might be a while before I get there, but I am looking forward to it.

Same voice actor(dr. Venture odviously) also a nod to venture brothers with wild wasteland perkToTaL LoLiGe said:
I hear you can kill your captors or team up to kill something EVEN bigger, I say kill all of em!
For Good!

Did anyone find the pet Deathclaw Stripe hiding in the dog house in Higgs Village? It's a wild wasteland thing I believe.
That thing had a ton of health.

It is indeed James Urbaniak. I damn near fell out of my chair laughing when I realized that 0 was basically Dr Venture.SeriousIssues said:
Yep. I saw it coming at me and laughed at it. Then I shot it a few times and saw its health barely go down...and then it swiped at me. And then I stopped playing around and switched to the Dog gun).AlternatePFG said:
It is a Wild Wasteland thing. There are some great Wild Wasteland moments in this. The one I mentioned earlier (in spoiler tags) was my favorite.
Loving the DLC so far, loads of great dialogue and background information on the fallout universe. The best New Vegas DLC so far.
Oh yeah, I just found that one.DustyDrB said:
Did anyone else get the LAER? It's awesome, the only downside is that decays so damn fast.
Gah, I spent more time listening to dialogue than actually killing. They just go on and on and on...
Even with Melee Weapons and Unarmed at 100, I had a hard time killing the robo-scorpions, and if it wasn't for my LMG+, Dinner Bell with the perks that involve a shotgun, Annabelle with high-velocity missiles (for the securitrons) and the Paladin Toaster, I would not have gotten out of there.
