Longest Playthrough? : Fallout: New Vegas

» Fri May 04, 2012 10:23 am

Just curious as to how many hours is your longest playthrough in FNV. Just a small thread thats probably been done before but who's keeping track of all the threads.

I am at 52hrs and still going.

About 130 hours is my longest, but I do have an ongoing one that is at about hour 120.

I've only played through it once and that was at launch, no DLC. My playthrough was 80 hours. I got the Ultimate Edition last night and can't wait to get back into the Mojave and the DLC.

My current one is around 73 hours and it will probably be many many more. I haven't completed any DLC neither any faction-related main quest, except that I killed Mr. House because of my own reasons.
I should also mention that I never fast travel and almost never run, I wanted to deserve a title Walker of the Mojave.
Sometimes I also spent in-game doys doing "Nothing" but relaxing, like spending 4 or 5 days on a vacation in Jacobstown. Of course I don't just press wait and then wait for 24 hours in game, I mean that I don't do quests etc...

Good stuff man! I hadnt played new vegas at launch I was waiting till I had the money to go out and buy it and than convieniently enough the ultimate edition was announced and subsequenlty released so I bought that have been playing it for 3 weeks and still got tons of stuff to do. 52hours without dlc so far and so much still to go. Yea I believe i got the bang for my buck.

My longest took about 6 months and 500ish hours

» Fri May 04, 2012 7:59 pm

awh, my longest is 61 hours, but in steam i have 280hours... i like to "restart" the game, fallout have a large tree of choices that really modify the game.

I don't think any of mine has reached 100+ hours.
I think the longest I have is 92.

On my pc its 46 hours, granted not much, but enough to have done the majority of the quests and all four dlc

46 hours with majority of quests and all DLC? It's that short? Yikes.

I think he means main quests or something. There's a crap-load of sidequests and free-quests.

My Legion playthrough was a little over 100 hours with all DLC and my Indie one is already past that and I'm only on the first of the DLC (Dead Money).

My House ones are always the longest so I'll answer again after I finish as NCR and then House.

It can be as long as you want it to be, but the real time spent is the masses of replayability.

My longest fast-travel enabled playthrough is at 65 hours, and my longest on-going no fast-travel playthrough is currently and 48 with all DLC's completed except for LR, another no-fast travel character is at 16 hours right now but I think eventually it will the longest one.

» Fri May 04, 2012 2:05 pm

48 hours with all DLC and no fast travel?!

» Fri May 04, 2012 8:29 pm

My longest playthrough is with Ruin on 360, 742 hours and counting. :cool:

» Fri May 04, 2012 4:25 pm

742 hours with one character on console?

» Fri May 04, 2012 9:10 am

Yes, I roleplay a lot with my characters, often creating scenarios for them to participate in. I always give myself something to do.

to be fare the main quest really only takes about 20 hours per character, and the dlc can be done in about five to ten hours a peice. I've also beaten nv five times so i'm sure i've done every quest at least once

And no there are still quite a bit of quests that i could do on my longest save, i only did a few of the companions quests and avoided helping the ncr too much

I'll have to check, but it was somewhere between 300 and 500 hours. I'll check that tomorrow to get an exact number...

It was my first "Tycho" playthrough (Desert Ranger playthrough) and it was on ps3. I didn't fast travel at all, and I tried to make it realistic by walking to locations rather than jogging/running all the time. It was my primary playthrough from June 2011 through November 2011.

Sounds like what I did.

Though, I have to admit I was feeling lazy at one point and FT'd once. :sadvaultboy:

How big was that save file? Any technical problems? I just got the Ultimate Edition last night for PS3.

I did at the beginning, before I decided to make it a no fast-travel playthrough. Then I did a few times to get to the Strip since so many damn quests lead back there.

12 MB. Yes, many technical problems. It froze up approximately every 40 minutes by the end.

What? How was the framerate?

» Fri May 04, 2012 2:01 pm

18 megs, then again my last save is Save #1680. No technical problems associated with save file save for me. Though I am playing on 360 so that may have something to do with it.

Exactly what I did :rofl:

, then I decided it would make more sense to be a NFT playthrough as a Desert Ranger.
