For example, the beginning of the DLC is very, very talky and without skipping furiously it will take you a while to get to the exploring. This is also where my problem as a callous reviewer sets in, as every single thing I want to complain about has a “yeah, but” to counter it. This is the point where you realise that Old World Blues isn’t to be taken seriously, possibly just after the Think Tank say “penises” more often in ten minutes than any other game does in its entire length. They’ve scooped out your brain, spine and heart, replaced them with synthetics, and accidentally flushed the brain down the toilet to end up at the lair of super-villain mad scientist Dr Mobius. This is the Think Tank, formerly some of the greatest minds in science, now exactly the same just crazier and minus the bodies. Heading downstairs you’ll find yourself talking to floating monitors attached to brains that seem surprised that you can talk. You have an apartment filled with interesting appliances (more on them later) although all appear deactivated.
You find yourself staring out from a tall tower in the centre of a huge crater, filled with all manner of weird buildings. Here’s where things go from strange to totally bafflingly insane. You head to the drive-in at midnight, activate a weird machine that projects an eye onto the screen, and suddenly find yourself teleported to a place called Big Mountain a.k.a. It’s not only the best Fallout DLC, but one of the best add-ons for any game ever.Īs usual, it starts with your character receiving a mysterious radio message (with jazzy undertones), this time inviting him/her to a midnight movie screening.
Consequently the latest DLC, Old World Blues, had to do a hell of a lot to impress me. I loved the main game, but both Dead Money and Honest Hearts felt decidedly lacking. I wasn’t that impressed by the previous two DLC packs for Fallout: New Vegas.
