I can see New Vegas unmodded, but that ain't Bethesda anyway. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] kieron115@startrek.website 2 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) Unmodded Fallout: New Vegas gameplay permalink fedilink source parent [–] kieron115@startrek.website 1 point 5 months ago I did use Neutral LUTs when I tried it, which at least made it not give me a splitting headache, but sadly it did nothing to fix the other issues.

As much as I can enjoy the planet sections they did overstay their welcome and actively annoy me. ME2 at least never pushed it's luck on that front. permalink fedilink source parent
