    As difficult as the Tops is to navigate, Gammoroh is the real Labyrinth of Fallout New Vegas. Long deep red hallways and low lighting, random floors and rooms. Prostitutes and prisoners. Any time I step in that building, it feels like I've fallen down a rabbit hole.

      I just played through KOTOR 2 (another Obsidian game headed by Avellone) for the first time this past week actually, and that game is a fever dream when it comes to navigating, even when compared to KOTOR 1 (made by OG Bio-Ware). Basically imagine a game where every world area and interior is as convoluted the Gammoroh... without fast traveling or quest markers. Not exaggerating lol. Brilliant game though.

    Fun Fact: If you plan on siding with the NCR, you don't actually have to kill Benny. Considering that 3 of the 4 ending require you to have the Platinum Chip meaning you have to kill Benny, the NCR is the only Faction that doesn't care whether you have it or not. As long as you can find a way to deal with Mr. House, then Benny can live his life thinking he got away with murder.

      While he does know that you're the one that's allowed into the Lucky 38, I'm not sure if he knows that you killed Caesar. Everyone else knows that someone killed Caesar, but they just don't know who, so I'm assuming he's on the same boat, and doesn't know, and so he won't mention it.

    Stuff like this makes me wish there was some sort of massive overhaul mod for the casinos. As-is they have so many completely unused rooms and space in general that it's just sort of a waste.

    There's a metal box at the Great Khan hideout in Quarry junction that is impossible to loot without console commands, yet it's in plain sight. It's placed behind an invisible barrier.

      Could it be a merchant box?

      @@Petmyhead I'm pretty sure it's just a regular box that was accidentally placed beyond an invisible wall
