In Lonesome Road you are contacted by the original Courier Six, a man by the name of Ulysses who refused to deliver the Platinum Chip at the start of Fallout: New Vegas. Ulysses promises the answer as to why he didn’t take the job, but only if you make one last journey into the hurricane-swept canyons of the Divide, a landscape torn apart by earthquakes and violent storms. It's up to you whether you take the job or not.

The final New Vegas DLC is also the most stripped back. It's essentially New Vegas as a linear shooter, which sounds potentially disastrous since the shooting mechanics are definitely not what excel in this game. While the lack of interesting NPCs and RPG mechanics/choices is certainly a hinderance, the team used this linearity to craft more interesting combat encounters than the base game with a great deal of challenge as they fling tough enemies at you in varying combinations and circumstances

Brave and well-done resolution to the game, some people like their main characters to have an ambiguous story but I think this adds the perfect amount of context while remaining mysterious. Beautiful world design, characters, and as per usual with obsidian, lore.

I didn't find Ulysses' motives very compelling, nor the retcon. I liked the atmosphere though.

Probably liked this one the least of all the Fallout: New Vegas DLC's. Still decent.

Lonesome Road is linear as all hell and the enemy encounters leave a lot to be desired. It also suffers from some head-scratchingly bad writing. I don't care about the Divide or even understand why I should care; the intro of the base game made it clear that your character's past doesn't matter. Also, Ulysses is supposed to be the quiet, stoic character but he simultaneously only talks in riddles and never shuts up. This is a sad end and a low point for an otherwise great game.

I didn't have much of an issue with the linearity of this DLC and the enemy encounters were pretty fun. But at the same time, the plot is completely asinine. So you're telling me that I'm a bigger asshole than Ulysses, someone who on multiple occasions intentionally set in motion gigantic travesties in the wasteland, because I simply did my job? What, exactly, was so special about The Divide? Why should the player care? Ultimately the writing in this DLC is utterly pretentious and disappointing.
