Lonesome Road is the last of New Vegas' DLCs and the one that feels most personal to the player. The story is connected to the Courier's past and the Legion - NCR war.
Gameplay wise it's fairly linear, more so than Dead Money, as there aren't any sidequests at all and the main missions come one after the other. The map looks complex but it's in reality quite straight forward and the few side locations to explore are very small, offering only a bit of backstory into The Divide and the moments before the war. The atmosphere is dark and oppressive and you always feel on edge about what's going to happen.
Ulysses is a cool antagonist but feels a bit cartooney, and a player with high speech will convince him quite easily to get the "best" ending.
Overall I would say it's my second most favourite DLC, after Old World Blues, but before Dead Money, Honest Hearts being my least favourite one.
