What does that matter?
It's more a concern of how the games are advertised than anything. Skyrim was hyped up as this huge-ass, "do anything, your actions are important, quests are infinite" game and we get "You can only climb that mountain through following a designated path or taking advantage of terrain-planing, choice of dialogue with no effect, quests are only infinite because a number of quests just start over when you complete them."And NV being insanely branching is an over-exaggeration. You pick up to two sides (primary, secondary) out of four, giving you one of twelve (eight possibilities for picking two, four for picking one primary) epilogue slide-screens. It's not that difficult, Dragon Age: Origins had it for all of your companions.
Still enjoyed it with mods.

TF2 with sprays, but those aren't actually mods in the sense that you're talking about.
the one true God is Doctor Doom and we should all be worshiping him.
Fallout 3 is the best game up there. The main story is not the most important part of the game, the exploration and side content is, which Fallout 3 excelled at.

Wasn't New Vegas, like, really buggy?I stopped playing Fallout just because I like a sense of direction in games. Also, the combat is just... ugh, so bad. I remember in the beginning of the game, when you have a pipe or some other bludgeoning weapon (I think), which, when you press the button, there's this huge delay, the noise it makes isn't very loud when hitting stuff, and none of the enemies ever flinch. It's the least satisfying combat in a game I've ever played.
Bethesda sucks.
I mean, that's kinda not what I was asking, but whatever. I'm well aware that there's bad mods (I think they're all bad), but the fact that you can improve the game with mods is still one of those no-brainer things. So when someone says, "I think the game is better with mods," it's like... Yeah. Duh.
