As the robots invite you to stay and enjoy the knowledge preserved in the dusty tomes, you find that you were not the first visitor to enter this strange Vault - and moreover, something isn't adding up quite right regarding the robots themselves. Your character discovers a Vault that contains a vast Old World library manned by several robots, each with their own personalities and motivations for keeping the library safe. I never liked the Hacking minigame, so this greatly livened my experience.Īutumn Leaves - A humble expansion quest mod that emphasizes investigation and dialogue-driven progression, offering no combat whatsoever. You will still need to meet the difficulty check, but once you do, the game will list only the correct keyword instead of having you puzzle it out from a list of 20 potential answers. Quick Hacking - Allows you to skip the Hacking minigame for computers. Improving your companions' DR is always a plus. Especially if you want to go around completing all their personal quests.Ĭompanion Dress-up - Also self-explanatory. If you hate trading one companion for another, this is a must. I think all builds can benefit from luring enemies into traps. Definitely a handy QoL function even if you don't intend to improve your character's Explosives skill. Grenade Key - Allows you to assign a hotkey for Grenade throwing. See this mod's install page for more details. On top of requiring New Vegas Script Extender (NVSE), however, you will need to install two other plugins. Does not seem to work with quest-sensitive NPCs and objects, but nevertheless I was extremely pleased to have this with me. Loot Menu - Allows you to take items from most corpses and containers without pausing the game, just like in Fallout 4. I completed a NV playthrough last December, and here are some of the newer mods I installed that I really enjoyed: Many of them add minor functionality to the game, some of them enhance the audiovisual experience, some add new lore-friendly locations (A World of Pain in particular adds an underground maintenance network that connects many parts of the wasteland), some alter the world in other interesting ways, etc The New Bison Steve Hotel and Lucky Casino It's a lot of mods, though, so if you don't want to download and attempt to install them all, just go ahead and search each individually on the Nexus. I always add these mods and then pick and choose what I'll add on top of them. This is a list of mods which I consider to be essential.
