(SPOILER)So when I played my first time I totally thought there was a way to just a way to not take sides with NCR or Caesar, and use House's robots to rule the Mojave as a benevolent dictator. After a point, I ended up talking to Caesar, thinking I needed to do it to advance the plot while maintaining my neutrality.

Then he kept asking more, and I lost any chance of aligning with the NCR. I thought his story was cool, but the dude was cray, and I'm not down with slavery. So when I had the chance to subtley kill him via brain surgery, I went for it.

Then his second-in-command took over, and he was even worse. Caesar had something of a moral compass, even if he was battrout. This dude didn't smurf around. I thought I could make it good. I thought I'd have my chance to off him. Before I knew it, he had asked me to help attack the Hoover Dam, and I couldn't get out of it. I went for it, and ultimately won over the NCR, but I felt like I lost in a big way. I wanted to be Switzerland, and instead I put a merciless warlord in charge.

It was one of the most conflicting endings I ever experienced in a game. I had such good intentions.

I started on the PS3 but I just couldn't stand it after playing FO3 on PC. If it's what you have to play on, it's alright, but it lacks some serious polish. The game plays pretty well on PC with a game pad if you can get one hooked up to your TV.



I wanted to go back and play through the DLC that I missed - I only played Old World Blues after my first play-through. But after re-installing Windows, I realized I lost my old save. I kinda want to dick around and avoid the main quest if I'm gonna get a character leveled up prior to jumping into any of the DLC packs. Can anyone recommend some areas to explore? I stayed pretty close to the plot my first time through so I probably missed a lot.
