New vegas is just a bad game like that. It's very boring. The entire game revolves around finding a magical poker chip. It takes you like 20 gameplay hours to get to it and then you're just dealing with typical bad guy thugs. Yawn.
The whole game takes what could have been a really cool Sci-Fi Post Apoc setting and throws that out of the window, and instead replaces it with Cowboy Bravo Macho Man setting. Instead of a 'Vault Dweller' you're a Delivery Man. Instead of coming out of a vault into a desolate nuclear wasteland? You get shot in the head by some casino gang punks and buried alive. You then wake up and seek to take your revenge western style. Yawn!
The fallout games in general, don't have the best gameplay. That's actually true for Skyrim as well. But new vegas makes it even worse by making you mess around with your inventory even more, balancing enemies around you having armor peircing and such ammo types. Of course, it's not simple to know what type of ammo to use against what, so often times you just waste a lot of bullets.
Despite all this, and believe, many more problems, a lot of people will defend NV to their grave, because like a single guy from the original games worked on it. A single guy that barely had anything to do with the original games, but was indeed in the credits... Fallout 3 didn't have that!!!! (omg)
But if you ask me... you want a more interesting, if not-so-canon-but-who-cares-fallout-games-are-ridiculously-old-by-now-and-we're-lucky-anyone-even-makes-sequels-to-it-anymore version? Just play Fallout 3.
