  • Today I return to Fallout and tackle the long promised Sierra Madre Martini, so charge up your plasma rifle and kick back with me and Dean Domino.
    **********************************
    Fallout: New Vegas is my favorite of the 3-d Fallout games (though I still prefer the original 2-d games if I'm honest) and it seems I'm not alone in that opinion. There's a LOT of love out there for New Vegas and rightly so: New Vegas managed to build a compelling and fully realized world with a rich lore and a believable setting, factions, characters, the works. The only real complaint about New Vegas is that at launch it had some bugs. The first expansion pack for this game was Dead Money, and not everyone loved it. Dead Money was a big genre shift for Fallout, it wasn't so much a Post Nuclear Role Playing game as it was a Survival Horror game. Yes, in the context of that overall Post Nuclear Role Playing game, it made sense, but as a module, it was all survival horror. It had a punishing difficulty though that I loved that reminded me of the original Fallout 1 & 2, and for that reason it's my favorite expansion for New Vegas. You meet some very interesting characters at the Sierra Madre hotel & casino, one of whom is Dean Domino, a ghoul who's been lurking around the casino since the bombs fell, and he's developed a trick or two to help him survive the passing centuries. One of which is mixing up a drink he calls a Sierra Madre Martini, a combination of Toxic Gas Cloud Residue, Junk Food, and Tin Cans, it's an intoxicating in-game buff that helps you survive the lethal expansion pack. Curiously for a martini alcohol isn't present in his recipe, but I manage to fix that. To make my version you'll need a cotton candy machine, and I strongly recommend the one I'm using here, because it's pretty cheap and works well enough. The link is here: amzn.to/2mmj0h3
    You'll be making some Absinthe Cotton Candy as a stand in for the toxic gas cloud. It's made like this.
    Combine Approx. 1 part Absinth with 2 Parts granulated sugar (adjust mix to get a coarse paste)
    Add 1 Tablespoon of Absinth Sugar to Cotton Candy Machine
    Collect Cotton Candy.
    Sierra Madre Martini
    .5 oz. or 15 ml. Simple Syrup
    2 oz. or 60 ml. Vodka
    5 or 6 Potato Chips
    Shake over ice
    Double strain into tin can filled with ice
    Garnish with Absinthe Cotton Candy

      I wouldnt want even just want a remaster at this point, really mods and self insert textures and packs really fix the "remaster" issue I feel it would want.
      What I need really is a full, complete addition of all of the entire game, if the old team could have just created the original fully fleshed out vision they had from the drawing board, given more than a year and a half of dev time and Bethesda being up their ass. Fleshing out what would have been a masterpiece on top of what is already a masterpiece really would outweigh whatever visual improvements of the current year graphics could provide, over just seeing what Obsidian at full power with Bethesdas 8 years squandered FO4 dev time could have accomplished and finished.

    I really liked Dead Money too because it had extremely RPG sensitive objectives. For example, if you challenge Dean Domino’s position one time throughout the story and he’ll turn on you. So you need to be careful with your choices from start to finish if you want him to side with you. You can easily turn everyone against you, but it’s really difficult to keep everyone with you. It reflected the theme of the story so well about greed. Excellent and underrated DLC.

Everyone I know talks about how great Old World Blues was, and while I did enjoy it, Dead Money feels like it gets overlooked for some reason. Maybe because it's such a survival/horror-esque situation and not everyone is into that; but as a long-time horror fan, I had a blast with it.
    Anyway, not sure if I'll ever be able to make this martini, but it was fun to watch. Thank you, Dean Domino, for concocting such an outrageous cocktail.

    Dead Money was kinda frustrating on my first go (gameplay wise), all those years back, but it really grew on me and i agree that the atmosphe is on point even if a little too cloudy (hardy harr).
    For my fav DLC i gotta go with the Lonesome Road tho, its not super complex neither in construction or story, but somehow it feels amazingly immersive and exciting every time

    Lonesome Road is what makes a playthrough for me TBH. The story makes my characters feel more real than a no past badass, it makes them feel like people. It made me contemplate what my characters would feel finding out about the past they forgot and how they would feel about what they became with a clean slate.

    BEST DLC. *sobs* Why won't you work???
    But yes, the whole setup, losing all your stuff, the casino, the back story to why the casino exists. Love it.

      Tamlan Dipper it had good ideas, make no mistake. However, the execution made it WAY harder than it should be. Case in point, the ghost people perception glitch. Nothing more fun than firing one of your 8 shots to defend yourself, and getting swarmed by 3 dozen borderline unkillable enemies. Another thing that ruined any and all fun I could have with the dlc was the fucking radios. Even with christines companion perk, the timer on them is WAY too strict for how many you have to run past, and even if you’re able to shoot one or two, there’s still dozens that are either indestructible, or in a spot that you can’t destroy them where it doesn’t fucking matter, because it only effects back tracking, which you’re almost certainly not going to do, some specific circumstances excluded. And it’s a shame that the gameplay is so needlessly brutal, because I love the story aspect of dead money, the prewar story of Vera Keys, and Sinclair, and Dean is awesome. It’s so interesting and tragic. It’s just a huge shame that to get that awesome lore that you have to slog through some of the most trial and error, unfun BS in the whole game.

    Having a bit of sugar in there to bring out the flavour of the potato chips makes sense. When you eat the chips, enzymes called amylases in your saliva start to break down the starch into sugars right there as you chew on them so you get a bit of a sweet taste. After straining and mixing with cold water that isn't gonna be happening so you'd have to add that sugar to the drink to get a recognisable "potato chips" taste.
