Modder “ToxicWhiteout” has created a new fan expansion for Fallout New Vegas called Dry Wells – Legion Expansion. This expansion gives you over 6 hours of gameplay with more than 20 quests. It also includes 35 fully voiced characters, new minor factions, and more, so let’s dive in and take a closer look at what it offers.
Dry Wells – The Legion expansion rebuilds the Dry Wells from the ground up, allowing you to visit them before nuking them on the Lonesome Road. This new area has new assets. It also expands the Legion lands in Arizona.
The mod includes over 20 quests, both marked and unmarked. These quests range from small tasks, like delivering items, to larger challenges like large battles. You can also explore medium-sized dungeons. Players can also expect four quest lines. Each of these consists of several parts. Two of them focus on the main story of the Legion, while another is about freeing slaves. There is also a short quest line where players can make decisions for a new group called The Hunters' Guild.
The modder claims that your choices will also affect the main quest. This should also increase the replay value of the mod. At least that's what ToxicWhiteout claimed. I don't have it installed so I can't comment on that.
Additionally, players can look forward to over 35 voice-acted characters. Additionally, players can find a new home by completing the main questline. Additionally, you can learn more about the Twisted Hairs tribe and see where they were betrayed through hidden notes on the map.
In short, this is a cool fan addition that many Fallout NV fans will appreciate, so if you're currently playing it, we highly recommend downloading the mod from this link.
The expansion also includes three optional files. The first adds desert weather climate to the Dry Wells area. The second is an audio mod that adds radios to Dry Wells that play Imperium Radio. The third file adds a chest to the player's house where you can find Gaius Magnus' armor and other rewards. Of course, you should install these as well.
If you like Fallout: New Vegas, you can also try these other mods for it. For example, this mod adds real-time reflections. Another changes over 1,000 features to make the game run smoother. Oh, and there's a mod that reduces texture seams in the landscape. Plus, there's a mod that makes the game's characters even smarter. Another must-have mod is this one that improves collision accuracy and fixes/optimizes meshes. Earlier this week, we also shared this mod that updated the movement animations in first person.
In June 2024, we released a mod that adds some STALKER-like anomalies to the game. Also, you can get this mod that adds physics-based vehicles to the game. And if you love quests, there's a mod that gives you an endless supply of new ones. Let's also not forget the Visuals Improved Content Expanded mod. This mod fills the environments of Vegas to make it feel more like a real city.
There are also some cool fan-made expansions for New Vegas. Four of them are currently being made. These are Fallout: Broken City, Fallout Van Buren Remake, Fallout: Nuevo Mexico, and Star Wars Open Worlds. On the other hand, we have these DLC-sized mods that you can grab and play right now. These fan expansion mods are Fallout New California, Fallout: Free Cheyenne Demo, Fallout New Vegas: Out of Bounds, and Fallout The Frontier.
Have fun and stay tuned for more!
