Does killing Caesar in New Vegas ruin the story?

No way. The story of New Vegas is built around multiple paths and choices. Siding against Caesar allows players to explore a different aspect of the game world, interact with other factions in unique ways, and experience a distinct narrative arc that is just as valid and interesting as any other option in the game.

The story of New Vegas splits at the point where the player's choices significantly impact the game's narrative paths and outcomes.

It differs mainly in the plot. The original has its set storyline, but the alternate story changes things up. Maybe the main character's motivation is different. For example, instead of seeking revenge like in the original, they could be on a quest for redemption in the alternate story.

Definitely! Fallout New Vegas has a great story. It offers a rich and immersive world with multiple branching paths and choices that affect the outcome, making it highly replayable.

Yes, in a sense. Once you complete the main story, the main narrative arc is concluded. However, you can still continue playing in the game world, exploring, doing side quests, and interacting with the environment.

Yes, the game's main storyline concludes, but there's still plenty to do in the post-game.

The story in Fallout 3 is more about a personal journey of the Lone Wanderer in a post - apocalyptic Washington D.C. It focuses on themes like finding your father and dealing with the Enclave. In contrast, Fallout New Vegas has a more complex political web. You're in the middle of a power struggle between various factions in the Mojave Desert. The choices you make in New Vegas often have far - reaching consequences for the region as a whole.

Not necessarily. It depends on how the ending ties into the overall narrative and character development.

The story's lack of clear direction can be a problem. You start off with a goal, but then there are so many distractions and side quests that the main story can get lost. It doesn't always lead you in a straightforward manner towards an end goal.

It's hard to give an exact number. Generally, a straightforward playthrough of the story in Fallout New Vegas could take you 25-35 hours. But if you're a completionist and want to uncover every secret and do every quest, you could be looking at 70+ hours of gameplay.
