A Quest for Heaven 3 - Deep Blue

Mod review may contain spoilers

Continuing the unbelievable and thrilling atmosphere of the first two parts, AQFH 3 is well scripted and designed - however there are still several bugs that need to be fixed in order to allow a console-free playthrough, as some enemies in the reactor, the Shrederk World and prometheus are bugged and CTD the game when killed, which can block the player from continuing in the main quest line (mainly the added mutants from SoC and later on even vanilla-mutants, the first are prone to freeze and crash the game when killed, the latter start to act like these as well later on). Also as in AQFH 1&2 some textures still won't work correctly and therefore make the custom gear sometimes unusable (i.e. glowing meshes, random textures, scope bugs etc.) - other than that, the mod is supremely done and visually and atmospherically stunning and at least on par, if not better, with the main game.

The story is superb and extremely lore-friendly, a lot of effort has been taken to intertwine AQFH and the Fallout universe, and a lot of additional information is provided via in-game notes and terminals which explains the story's background and those of several characters.

All in all the mod is a solid one, the only drawback being the heavily bugged mutants which can severely impact main quest progression or even make it impossible to complete without console.
