Which New Vegas DLCs Are Worth It?

[kouriichi]

I thought they were all decently good.
But by far, the best one was Old World Blues. ((I love it when Dr. Dala calls me her Teddy Bear))

I couldnt stop laughing through my play throughs of it. Its Bethesda humor at its best. If you have to get any DLC, OWB is your best choice.

After that its Lonesome Road and Honest Hearts. Dead Money wasnt bad, but it totally broke the game for me. ((Not glitchy broke, i mean OP end quest items.))

Spoiler

There are these gold bars can loot, and get out with ((around 9-12 of them if you have the right stat boosts)). They sell for stupid amounts ((up to 10k)) and can look nice in your home.

There all worth it but if you have to pick i suggest Old World Blues and Lonsome Road seeing as in concludes the story.

Its Bethesda humor at its best.

What you mean to say is Obsidians humor at its best they made it and im pretty sure Chris Avellone did the writing.

Of the ones that I've played

Dead Money
Honest Hearts
Old World Blues

Yes, the only part of Fallout that truly delivered on the horror section for me. The atmosphere was PERFECT
No. Kinda bland, just felt like more of vanilla NV
Kinda. It was creative...but ANNOYING!

I like having them all. Mainly for the level cap of 50!

Fallout New Vegas is on sale and having waited for the ultimate collection i might as well get it now. But what DLCs are the ones that were actually good and which ones sucked? It will save me money for other holiday sales.

All of them but Dead Money

Also I got all the DLC and New Vegas for $16 on the Steam sale

Old World Blues was my favorite, Lonesome Road seemed great from what I played but my 360 RROD'd before I could finish it, and I've yet to get it fixed. I really enjoyed Dead Money myself, it provided a nice challenge and it was completely different from the main game. And honestly, I really don't remember much from Honest Hearts, it was rather crap. So yeah, get Old World Blues, it was really enjoyable. Lonesome Road gets quite a bit of praise, but I can't vouch for it. Dead Money was really fun for me, other people think it's on par with Satan taking a dump on Fallout. I'd stay clear of Honest Hearts, it wasn't fun.

They're all really good but Honest Hearts has the least amount of content, I thought. Dead Money is personally my favorite but Lonesome Road and Old World Blues are probably two of the best dlc out there.

The best part (or at least an excellent addition) of the FO:NV dlc is the items you get to bring back with you to the main game. So while the other three are no brainers (get them) I'd suggest getting Honest Hearts if only for the +5 levels, new perks and guns.

Oh yeah and if you have a pc you may not need them but the Gun Runner and Courier's Stash dlc help tip the game balance in your favor a little. I thought it was worth it =)

And DM for the BAR.

I get that DM is Dead Money but BAR? I don't even

One of the rewards from Dead Money, very very powerful =p

Right, the light machine gun (from the Police Station?). But I swear I bumped into that in the main story w/o the Gun Runners Arsenal.

But I don't know, I'm not a machine gunner myself.

I love all of them however I'd say that probably Old World Blues is probably the best, blending a pretty good story with great rewards, plus a new radio station, yay!

Second (in my Opinion) would be Honest Hearts, I quite like the smaller stories in this, like the Survivalist and the character of Joshua Graham I find very fascinating and Keith Szarabajka really imbues him with the right spirit and perfect balance of emotions. Plus this add on gives some great gear like the Desert Ranger Combat Armor (which gives you a good alternative to the T-45d Power armor), the .45 Auto weapons, Survivalists Rifle, and plenty of new recipes.

Dead Money has a great story and interesting characters while providing a great atmosphere, though it can be very frustrating with it's sometimes unfair deaths and how you have to act a certain way to keep your team mates alive.

I've had the least experience with Lonesome Road but it is truly worth it if only to provide you with a great antagonist who questions how you play the factions in the game plus it gives yo substantial upgrades for one of your Mojave Companions and probably the best light armor in the game, at least to me.

As for Gun Runner's Arsenal, it isn't particularly necessary but it is good fun and more than pays for itself, especially with the fun challenges. Courier's Stash is even more unnecessary and I really don't like much beyond the Classic Pack portion (which I already had) but it's not a total waste.

In DM it's called the Automatic Rifle, in case you mean the Light Machine Gun, which is a completely different weapon. I don't recall the AR being in F:NV without DM.
