Is Fallout: New Vegas more stable than Fallout 3?

Fallout 3 and New Vegas are both 32 bit, so with both games you'll get stutter frequently. But in Fallout 3 I would crash every 15-30 minutes, while in New Vegas I could play for hours without a single crash. I never understood why people had issues with stability. I've never had a crash in any of the Fallout games.

Does New Vegas run better than Fallout 3?

NV personally. While 3 might have better map design and atmosphere, NV has the better writing, plot, game mechanics, lore and DLC, making it superior, especially for immersion over a long period of time (3 is better for immersion on a shorter period, but is more intense). Also has a better modding scene.

Why is Fallout 3 so mature?

The game was very addictive and fun, because I loved RPGs. But because of the sheer amount of gore and violence in this game, it cannot possibly be suitable for 14+.

Is Fallout: New Vegas overhyped?

FNV is extremely overrated. 70% of the game is walking, 20% is talking, and only 10% is the enjoyable gameplay like quests, combat, story, dungeon crawling, etc. It doesn't help that you have to be like 30 feet away from undiscovered locations before they appear on the compass.
