So, I'm dumb as shit when it comes to computer now. I'm operating with some family Christmas money and would like to keep things under a grand if possible. Basically what I wanna do that requires power is being able to game up to running a dolphin emulator well enough, graphical setting higher than like 720p really don't matter to me, if I can run some sorta newish PC stuff at lower graphic ends fairly smooth that's perfectly fine just wanna play new Vegas on PC with mods for the first time level. Also being capable of some light video/sound editing would be cool. Plz don't get too into the weeds here, I'm so behind on stuff it's kinda funny.
What's the best thing for a more realistic hardcore mode? I'd like myself and enemies to die from guns easier, maybe having it make a difference if I travel by night or day and stuff, I don't want it just harder I want it better implemented.
sounds like you could get on with BLEED, maybe heatstroke for making shit harder but fair
one of the unfortunate things is those big overhauls like project nevada became deprecated a few years back, so you'll want Tweaks and Just Mods to make up the difference with lots of adjustments & mechanics you can configure for yourself. they seem intimidating but are very user friendly and ingame.
but before any of that, you want to follow the TTW install guide or a similar basic install with the patches, fixes and all that. typing this all out it doesn't seem nearly as easy as it is but Mod Manager is an excellent program these days
