The difficulty bar goes up drastically in this mod, and your only goal is to get out of the Mojave. Rather than giving you the traditional Fallout: New Vegas story experience, this one lowers the focus and transform the game into a survival game with bits of horror thrown in for good measure. It’s survival of the fittest in the wasteland, and Dust highlights this. While it is a base building mod, you expect plenty of trouble to happen in your town, so you better prepare for it. If you’d rather not play Fallout 4, but enjoyed the base building system, here’s your solution.
It might look a little familiar because Bethesda used the system in Fallout 4. You’ll be able to find a spot of land to lay a foundation, create a little village where you can harvest food, water, invite inhabitants to live with you and develop a town with its own trade. When you want to play something different in the Fallout: New Vegas setting, the Real-time Settler mod gives you a bit more of a unique challenge.
