One of the most exciting things about this game is when you conquer a difficult quest, or win a difficult fight. Bad players can use easy mode to achieve this, medium players can use normal mode, and really good players can use difficult mode.

But when you cannot die no matter what you do, as in God mode, it doesn't increase your real playing skills, it spoils any skills you have developed already, you become lazy, and it gives you no real satisfaction because you haven't really achieved anything. You know you haven't really won.

So I never use God mode and I don't recommend anyone else using it either.

Ha ok thanks for your imput I've beat the game twice on xbox just looking to have some fun and I just figured it out no thanks to this dumbass or anyone else, so far from what I'm getting out of steam blows I've bought 2 games, one does not work and no help from steam or any other Dbags on here. I guess its time to go back to xbox, O and lets see who the first person is to comment and say "Yea go back to xbox no one wants you here" or something in that form

So you paid, what, $20 so you could run around in god mode in a game you already own? Give modding a shot, theres plenty of free, player created content out there that will give you plenty of entertainment.

Also, is having to reload really that big of a deal?

Cheat in an RPG?

I feel sorry for console players who can't use mods. The mods are half the fun,and with all the mods out there you can add 100 hours more of gameplay to your game. Besides they add all sorts of new creatures, weapons, and dynamics to the game.

As for God mode, why would you need it? Just play the vanilla version for a while and you'll have so much ammo and caps that you'll never run out. Plus you'll be so powerful that you'll laugh at Deathclaws. I love punching Deathclaws to death.with my powerfist. That's why you need mods, to make the game challenging.

Why on Earth would someone want to use cheats? I've gotten all the achievements on the xbox version, and about about 50% the way threw them again with about 200hrs On the PC version. Game has never gotten stale nor have I ever felt the need to use cheats.

I utterly sympathise - Sonic Spinball and Peggle do not work and I have been unable to get help. I play Xbox a lot and also Vita, and all their games work fine.

Sorry about the whole 'replying to a comment 4 years later' thing, just wanted to make sure if anyone stumbled across this post in the future (like I did today) that the other side of the subject is discussed.

You know, I'll be honest, I play both Skyrim and Fallout a lot on god mode.
Reason being I have anxiety problems so severe that just the threat of being able to die causes me a lot of stress. I like to play games because it's an interactive story, but until I'm SUPER familiar and comfortable with a game I just can't bring myself to take away the cheats.
That being said, I do try to avoid main quests or DLCs when I have cheats on so I can eventually achieve something without any spoilers, but it takes a while usually.

I know that this post is like YEARS old and this is kind of silly, but even so I wanted to express my thoughts, because I think it's important that firstly people are respected and their questions are answered even though you don't like their methods, and secondly that you don't assume that everyone plays games just for challenge and achievement.

^ My first reaction to the OP as well. From what I've seen, many do it (e.g. God Mode or the equivalent using whatever third-party modding software). In faster paced ARPG's like the Borderlands series which wasn't even written to support modification, there are huge cults of fans that aggressively mod for an extra thrill. Still, the speed of gameplay in the Fallout series is so much slower and more civilized that I can't rationalize the kicks some people get playing it in God Mode.

Fact of the matter remains that someone was looking for an answer to a question about how to cheat, man. Personally I understand cheating in games like Fallout more than Borderlands, because Fallout has a compelling story and vibe, whereas gameplay is the only real good part of Borderlands (or so I've heard at least). That's just me though. I'm not in these games for 'the kicks'.

i know this post is from 11 years ago at this point. But typing out an essay to not answer the question because you don't like using cheats is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ dumb.

Literally every gatekeeping son of a gun just jumping on this thread like reddit vultures
Give the guy a break

I think you should always leave tgm off when you do your final quit save and enable it again normally when you log back in, there might be issues with it resetting something you leave on when it's something as game changing compared to just FoV tweaks.
Can't really help to fix it if you've already played over the working saves.
