Once those are answered, he gives the player a Rorschach test. After that, he asks players some word association questions. Soon after, Mitchell shows players the Vit-O-Matic Vigor-Tester. After the bullet fragments are removed and the wound is cleaned and healed, Mitchell asks players their name afterwards, he holds a mirror in front of the player and asks if he "left anything out of place," and this is where players create and customize the look of their character. Once players are back at the town, Mitchell removes the bullet pieces that were scattered in their skull.

Victor then brings the courier to the small, nearby Nevada town of Goodsprings, more specifically to the home of Doc Mitchell, the town's resident doctor. The courier is then found by Victor the Securitron, a robot who happened to see the murder attempt from afar and dug the courier out of the potential grave once the assailants left the crime scene. Players control a wasteland courier who, at the beginning of the game, is shot in the head by an unknown assailant in a checkered suit, and buried in a shallow grave while attempting to travel to the town of Primm. I have no idea if this works for Fallout, but it’s probably worth at least trying before reinstalling.Fallout: New Vegas takes place in and near its titular city, three years after the events of Fallout 3. It recommends holding down “A” when the game loads until the Bethesda logo appears which apparently clears some sort of cache, fixing the issue for some Oblivion players. I later came across this post which may have saved me the trouble of reinstalling. When I started the back game back up, not only were the textures and shaders correct, but I had also fixed an occasional crasher I got when the New Vegas launcher started up (which I believe had to do with the detection of DirectX). I fixed it by uninstalling New Vegas and Steam (I could have probably just uninstalled the game, but I wanted to be 100% certain), getting all my video drivers and settings properly tweaked (including the newest version of DirectX), and reinstalling.

As you can see from the picture above, poor Doc Mitchell was the first victim. Unfortunately, I installed both Steam and New Vegas before I finished tweaking my video drivers which resulted in some very bizarre purple/pink textures or shaders.

The first game I decided to play after building a new gaming PC was Fallout: New Vegas.
