Listening to this while watching Freeside just brings me so many memories...this game is pure magic. Hope Obsidian gets a chance to upgrade it and remaster it for the new generation, absolute masterpiece.
Obsidian is basically non existent now. Far as I know fell apart after it basically went bankrupt. Why Bethesda put New Vegas out instead of Obsidian. Some of what was left of Obsidian merged into Bethesda dev teams. Closest thing we get to remastered Freeside now is Freeside mods. Al Chestbreach showcases ,does a bunch of Freeside mod and New Vegas mod play throughs. He's silly a f, good for a laugh at times though, and you get to see what kinds of amazing new mods they have for p.c. There's one called High Desert for Vegas. It's a bit out there in places. But it's also so very New Vegas. Basically another alternative to Atomic Wrangler or whatever.
Hah. Man I think you are onto something here. Why is it Freeside has such a vibe, and a place in players hearts and minds? Considering the vanilla version was barely 3-4 blocks. It just had that special thing, some kind of magic that draws people,players back I suppose. It has everything from squats, squalor, grime,crime, addictions desperation. To ruthless thugs, to vigilante gangs like the Kings. And literal angels in white coats like the Followers.. It had, has everything. The white ,the black and grey in between. A retro futuristic post apocalyptic society struggling to get back to real civilization. House could of rejuvenated Freeside. But ultimately he only cares about what's his alone. But Freeside survived with or without him. Freeside lives on regardless. It resonates with us cause it resembles so much of the disparity in our own world. Where people fight the good fight and struggle on regardless I think.
Love how its kind of real time setting, ambience. Only thing I feel is missing here is some locals and Kings going about their business. Maybe one or two getting mugged lol Last time I played was on my old Xbox 360. Controller broke. God this makes me miss it.
@comfysavage you definitely can. New Vegas is still the most modded Fallout game there is last I heard. I've seen some excellent N.V mod reviews last few years. Mods to graphic overhauls, and full mission quests mods. I'd be onto it in a heartbeat. But money for a computer is something I just don't have these days. Literally left with a few $ after rent and food is paid for atm. But yeah , nexus and few others have some amazing pro dev style mods for N.V these days,even a few for F3 I think.
Just found your videos, love them. New Vegas is my favorite game and these videos are great, are you making more? Also, Bioshock would be sweet too! Like the burial at sea DLC where you're in a "new" Rapture 🙂
Thanks! I try and upload twice a week at the moment, maybe more when I get more time. I have thought about Bioshock, it's a good idea I'll do it eventually
You are right. Freeside is better than the Strip. The Strip stinks of vice, greed, alcohol , cigarettes, con artists outside and in the clubs. You can piss away a thousand caps in half n hour and would be encouraged to do so, while waiters and waitresses will top up your drinks. Freeside has none of the glitz and little glamour. It has maybe even worse crime, and definitely more squalor and dust and dirt. But what it does have that the Strip will never have. Is people like the Kings , and Followers, genuine good people who genuinely care about Freeside and its residents.
You just left this small town called Free Side and you are on your way to New Vegas you accidentally stumbled into this small town not sure what it's called to escape the heat of the desert for refuge and rest maybe water, food, a place to stay a job and of course female companionship yeah and hang around awhile because it's hot and miserable out there and without any wheels and gas you ain't gettin anywhere fast and on feet you ain't gonna get anywhere fast that is if you get anywhere at all before the heat burns black as coal, sorry but tend to get carried away when talking about being out there in the desert wasteland of nothing but heat and more heat. ........ You found the town a battle ravaged place after that war a few years back and the citizens there weren't as you expected as they were friendly and nice but you had to be careful not to let your guard down just in case its all an act because you've heard stories about some of these places that when they run out of food they substitute their food supply a little differently if you get what the meaning or you might end up their main course on the nights menu so you guess you don't have to say anymore about that. .................... Your a mercenary expertly trained in combat both armed with various weapons both modern and archaic weaponry and in unarmed combat and proficient in all fighting skills and much more mercenary training so you can defend yourself against this spaced out bunch here but you have gotten used to it sorta kinda and you slowly learn how to live and stay alive all over again and it ain't easy so just take it slow and at one day at a time. ........ You've found a small room and your resting for a while but your also staying alert and on guard against someone attacking you are rested now and to find water and food and then you'll be on your way elsewhere and you found some water and alot of it in bottles and you'll put as many as youcan get in your backpack and now find food you found some bread, candy, chips, crackers, pretzels, snack cakes and beef jerky and now your set and on your way back on the open road and the only difference now is you have a ten speed bike now and traveling will be a little bit easier now downhills will be good but the uphills might not be but at least you won't be carrying the backpack on but on the bike it will be easier. ........ The sun has started to go down and you'll make New Vegas by early morning without any problems that is the people here were so out of it that you don't think they realized that you were there, but you feel sorry for them and you pray they survive against whatever is the future of this town but you just want be here to see it as you'll be out in the middle of the desert on your ten speed, full backpack and on your way to New Vegas ........ Well your three miles out of this small town six miles from Vegas and you've taken shelter under a shade tree behind a bunch of boulders to hide you so you'll take a little nap and by tomorrow afternoon you will be in New Vegas so G'Night Y'all Take Care and God Bless You.
This has perfect balance between sfx and music

When I passed away and go on I hope and I pray that this would be my heaven
No seriously that hits me in the heart

'Come-on down to the Atomic Wrangler... We have quest mods 2 for 1"
YES THIS WAS THE ONE I WAS LOOKING FOR

You can probably run it on whatever PC you have nowadays, if you have one

freeside is better than the strip
Caesar, Crocker, Benny and Mr House don't want beef with The King
