          i’m pretty sure on one of my attempts to play through (honestly happens every 3 years or so) that I started to play with ENBs along with other well recommended mods and I literally managed to just corrupt the entirety of the game files lmao. pretty sure i was bluescreening too.

            Depends on the mods, most mods pre-2015 were horribly made but through a much more active playerbase have enough endorsements from back then to show up as “top mods,” like Project Nevada. ENB is also buggy and pretty broken for New Vegas, it was never finished as well.

        It’s funny I think I’ve been blessed by the mod gods because I just go wild with installing a bunch and it’s never done anything to the performance of the game.

      As a certified NV head, there’s a lot Fallout 3 did better, like the economy, repair limitations, atmospheric audio cues Obsidian never really implemented, NPC conversations, and more. New Vegas is much better, but it could have been way better.
