Forum:Must haves or else it's not dystopic Vegas

Nonjoiner's list of things in dystopic wasteland-Vegas-gone-to-hell that should be in it, or else it'll feel incomplete:


 * Noon-day gunslinger duels


 * A huge betting arena, with melee-only battles, ranged battles, and free for alls. And with monsters occasionally thrown in, sadistic arena managers, and huge blood thirsty crowds. A "Ben Hur" type, final challenge would be awesome.


 * Lotsa Mafioso in control or wanting control.


 * Casinos, slots, card games


 * Strippers (or dancers), a cathouse, a prostitute-with-a-heart-of-gold as a potential follower


 * Fast wedding chapels complete with a robot minister of ceremonies


 * A bank, with a chance to rob it.


 * A few epic scale monsters.


 * Yucca Mountain -- ghoul & super mutant central


 * Area 51 (maybe as a DLC?)


 * Basically, Vegas-gone-to-hell would be like a combination of the Wild West combined with the Mafia and Rome.
 * 1950's Vegas was owned & controlled by the Mob, and it would flourish in the dystopic future. It's the Wild West because of the lawless nature of a free-wheeling criminal run area in a desert. And if there's a megalomaniac Godfather mostly in charge, then he'd love to have Roman style arenas


 * Pluses, for character:


 * Ghoul versions of:


 * Howard Hughes


 * Elvis


 * Sammy Davis


 * Possible, logical surviving organizations of the old USSA:


 * Enclave Intelligence Agency


 * Free Bureau of Investigation


 * It seems like New Vegas is rich with creatively intriguing possibilities for many expansions, if we're lucky.
