Anyone want to give some advice on mods?

Why hello everyone!

Little back story for you.... played and beat the first 2 fallouts, when F3 came out, I loved it even if it wasn't a true 'fallout' but beat it and most of the expansions with much fun had. Tried New Vegas quite a few times and never even made it to the strip! Now I know, usually people say, "Play the vanilla version and then try modding it" but what can I say, I'm a rebel.

Now I've tried playing it with an assortment of mods, (Project Nevada, EVE, etc.) Essentially things to add game play, items, monsters, and graphics. My question is, What are a small assortment of mods that may make the game MUCH more immersion. Maybe not necessarily 'harder' but graphics, game play, etc. I want the game to feel more like a post apocalyptic survival where I can still do the missions, and less like a FPS with some rpg elements.

(Sorry if my English isn't that great, stupid second languages.)

my favorites are "tuckered out" and "monster mod"

The first thing to do is ask yourself "what would I change?"

For me, this was things like the off-center camera, getting attacked too often, and the low-res map.

These aspects are all modified to suit my style of gameplay. You've already got Project Nevada, which lets you change more about the game than (I think) any other mod. It's also New Vegas's most popular mod.

Once that's looking a bit better, complete the game, or at least play till you're satisfied you've seen most stuff, then you should start actually adding in new stuff like quest mods (Deimos, Bounties etc) or stuff to expand the gameworld (Requiem, AWOP) or new apparel and weapons.

 

Remember, on the nexus you can sort download categories by most downloaded or most recommended, to see what are the top mods.
