Depends what you mean by gameplay, I love the storytelling, the role-playing, the rich tapestry of New Vegas. You can get engaged, feel like you have a real impact. It's very well done.

Very true, I was referring to more the actual running-and-gunning combat aspects, which are…well it’s Fallout 3, more or less. And I have gripes with Fallout 3’s combat.

I also love the RPG in New Vegas, and you’re absolutely correct that you feel the world change around to reflect your choices more so than any other Fallout game. In my mind that’s categorized under “storytelling”, but really it should be under “gameplay” because it’s responding to player input. I don’t know why my brain didn’t consider that.
