blah blah i cant believe a game studio would be relying on mods for things that should of been in the game already
Sure you can mod New Vegas but actually New Vegas wasn't relying on mods. They tried to make sure EVERYTHING was in the core game first. New Vegas developers actually asked the modding community on what they think should be in the core game instead of just ignoring them.
Bethesda just takes too many lazy methods of developing and have this mentality that "the modders will just fix it, haha"
I'll tell you this, no amount of modding has ever fixed the essential NPC problem in Fallout 3. Sure there were mods to make these essential NPCs killable but no amount of mods could fix the fact that you can't complete the game if one of those NPCs died. So where is your "just mod it" attitude for that?
