It's honestly not as good in 2024 but people do view this game with rose tinted nostalgia glasses above any other

Tbh I'd disagree. I played NV for the first time last year, and it was a great experience. It definitely shows its age a bit, especially needing to use the pipboy to swap to grenades. That being said, the architecture of the game is amazing. The map, story, and gamedesign is superb, and now that I'm playing fallout 4, I'm enjoying the new game aspects but I'm missing everything that's great about new vegas.

You can hotkey weapons, including grenades. They'll be the number row or d-pad, but it's a lot better than opening the pipboy every time.

I disagree. I'm not much of a Fallout fan, but I picked up New Vegas for the first time because of the show, installed the Viva New Vegas mods mentioned in another comment, and this game absolutely fucking rules.

It’s not as good now, and also in the past?

I remember playing this game in high school when it came out, and it was an amazing game at that time for that time. It had bugs, however the branching storylines and care put into that world is pretty evident when compared to fallout 3

It might be a bit aged but it's still the best 3d Fallout

You are all heathens, blaspheming against the Sacred Game, get smited with all the fury of an angry nerd (with a downvote, the extent of my rage and power)

New Vegas, praise its name, martyred on the altar of Bethesda coding
