You’re right. Obsidian had a very tight timeframe for developing this game and it was a buggy mess when it released. as is anything based on the creation Gamebryo (creation is skyrim onwards and is based on gamebryo) engine.
Once it was polished up a bit though it was recognized for the genre defining game it is
I’ve never really understood the hyper around NV but admittedly my memory could be tainted by time.
I loved Fallout 1 & 2 and when Fallout 3 dropped I was delighted to get 1st person modern graphics in the world I loved. Then NV came along and the novelty of the new perspective and graphics had worn off, and there were these 2 new groups I really didn’t enjoy. Take me back to simpler times of raiders and brotherhood.
Then Fallout 4 came out and I was happy once more…back in the world I loved with fresher graphics.

It was released in 2012 or something. Back then it wasn’t greeted with such positivity and I hadn’t checked since.
The reviews do look pretty positive now.

But nothing can replace 1 & 2 for me.
