    No, I’m playing with the one that isn’t labeled “classic” in my GOG library. As far as I can tell, it may have cleaned up how that game interfaces with modern displays and maybe not much else. I’m level 7, and I just got to NCR with my posse of three companions. I had some encounters in the Wanamingo Mines and Vault 15 that wiped the floor with me, so I left them for now, though maybe with some guns I just picked up, Vault 15 would go better at this point. I’d love to get some better armor, but I have yet to find any in drops from enemies.

      From looking at the GOG store it doesn’t seem to be bundled with any patch, which is actually unusual for GOG. If you’re interested I heartily recommend Restoration Project, Updated or RPU for short. It’s a combined unofficial patch/cut content restoration that’s very vanilla friendly and tidies up a lot of stuff left unfixed in the last official patch.

      Yeah those Wanamingos are scary in the early game, definitely a place to come back to later. Armour can be tough to get as it doesn’t typically drop as random loot. There are two leather armours for sale in Klamath I think if you’ve gotten a bit of money now.

        The quest bugged out a few times, but with a bit of reloading old saves, I managed to transport some brahmin for about 3k caps, so I think I can afford that armor now.
