Man every year that goes by people glaze that game a little harder.

Well, besides it just being really just that fucking good, I think there are a couple of reasons.

First off, anyone who doesn’t like it probably hasn’t been playing it for 15 years. It’s a natural effect of time. People who talk about something for that long either really love it or really hate it, and those opinions take up a greater part of the conversation as the less fanatical folks fall away.

Secondly, while many great games have come since then, nothing has done what New Vegas did as well as it did. So not only does it keep looking better every year, just by comparison, but the conversation has also gotten stuck. Since there’s no real follow-up for fans to move on to.

Compare this to another amazing game from around that time, like Dark Souls. People love and glaze that game to death. It’s a timeless classic and cultural landmark in gaming. But fans have been able to move on to sequels, spiritual successors, and knockoffs, so the conversation has been able to move on with them.

I disagree on the point about Dark Souls. I don’t think people have moved on. I still get new videos on it pretty frequently. This is because, like FONV, nothing has done something like it sense. Sure, the gameplay has been replicated and improved, but the world hasn’t. DS1 is still, in my opinion and many others, the best designed world in the Souls genre, and possibly in gaming as a whole. There’s a very good reason it hasn’t been replicated though; it was a bitch to design. I hope we get another world like it though.

Linux on proton-GE, never had a Problem

Apparently Linux is running windows stuff better than windows now

Until you try to mod it in Linux

It’s way easier now than it ever used to be.

Engine still crashes plenty though.

I found that when I followed the Viva New Vegas modpack/guide that it was quite stable for me, like only one crash in 20 hours or so, until I started added even more mods on top.
