14 DAY TRIAL // Fallout: New Vegas is the next iteration in the post apocalyptic role playing franchise, and has been developed by Obsidian and published by Bethesda.
While Fallout 3 was a pretty challenging game, once you surpassed certain levels, enemies became extremely weak, no matter what type of weapons you wielded.
Supermutants, Ghouls and even the upgraded enemies that came in the downloadable add-ons like Broken Steel were extremely easy to kill, so you were just wandering through the Capital Wasteland killing anything or anyone that gave you a bad look.
In Fallout: New Vegas, things aren't that easy, as Obsidian really threw in some tough enemies, and, to really make sure you encountered them, scattered the Deathclaws or Cazadores right next to important locations in the game.
Deathclaws were present in Fallout 3, but while they only served as a bit of challenge in that title, the New Vegas ones are much more powerful.
One particular region, Quarry Junction, is filled with these creatures, as well as two specific versions, the Deathclaw Alpha Male and the Mother Deathclaw.
If you really want to test out your survival skills, try going there, but be warned that you need powerful weapons, lots of stimpacks and your most powerful companions to even stand a chance against these tough animals.
The second most dangerous enemies in New Vegas are the Cazadores, even though they don't seem all that terrifying when you first encounter them.
While these mutated insects may seem like regular Bloatflies from a distance, they can quickly turn into your worst nightmare thanks to their high speed, and the fact that they attack in swarms.
If you don't have good area of effect weapons, like grenade launchers or mines, the deadly venom of these insects can easily take you down no matter how many stimpacks you might have.
With these two enemies, Obsidian really made the Mojave Wasteland a more dangerous place, and added some fear into the hearts of those who explore it.
