18/05/2011 20:09Anyone played the new DLC, Honest Hearts? I finished this morning, and I have to say it was actually worse than Dead Money. There were some cool enemies, and the Yao Guai from Fallout 3 is back. There were also some Giant Green Gecko's, and GIANT Cazadores. The area, Zion national park, is really boring. The whole place is taking part inside of a canyon, and the quests are borings as hell. Typical vanilla Fallout quests: "Go free them", "Destroy the tribe encampment". Quests like that are extremely boring, and the whole feeling I had was "Let's just get it over with", instead of "Please don't end yet!".
Dead Money: 7/10
Honest Hearts: 6/10
20/08/2011 15:05Here comes another "mini-review" about the latest Fallout: New Vegas DLC, which is "Old World Blues".
This DLC is by far the best one yet, it might even be better than my all-time favorite "Point Lookout" from Fallout 3. The beginning is a bit lame, you start by touching a broken satelite(?). This beginning reminded me about the "Dead Money" where you start the DLC by touching a radio.
The DLC is packed with humor, and is by far the most unserious one so far - the "people" you are talking to refer to your fingers as penises, and one of the "persons" say that you are a huge teddy bear. All of this will make sense if you play the DLC, it most definitely won't by reading this.
The quests are pretty fun, and rewarding. They are somewhat long, but as mentioned you get rewarded greatly when you finish them. Everything from a stealth suit, to a satelite antenna. The main "boss" is a "person" called Dr. Mobius, he is an evil ex-doctor from before the Great War. He has created these creatures called "Robo-Scorpions" which are incredibly hard to kill. They have armor on, so normal ammo won't do very much damage.
By the end of this DLC you also come closer to unveiling the whole mystery behind Ulysses and why he didn't take the courier job. There are also some holotapes where you can hear his voice, and Christine's from "Dead Money". There are also some special weapons in this game like Elijah's Advanced LAER, Christine's sniper rifle, and a insane Tesla cannon which can fire like 5-20 rounds without having to reload it. It does drain your health, though.
Anyway enough spoiling and rambling about random stuff, this DLC is awesome, and you should play it if you're a fan of Fallout: New Vegas and have finished the main story.
I give it a 8/10.
