we should play together then it will not be scary 

You, Jeff Mangum and me will show the capital wasteland who's boss


This morning I made an unarmed character and then I went out and I wasn't very good at unarmed at all and then I found Vault 106 and that was really scary because of the purple lights - ghost thing so I stopped playing once I found the way out and I am still not very good at unarmed.

[Kalahari Inkantation]

tfw the game loads too quickly for me to be able to read the loading screen tips

[Kalahari Inkantation]

aaand it just crashed again after attempting to reload a file

Maybe I will need to resort to an unofficial patch.

not really.


Which is why New Vegas is the better Fallout


Fallout 3 is the Mass Effect 3 of Fallout

whether you're good or bad is pretty well determined by your actions in the megaton quest. if you disarm the bomb, you're good for a really long time because you're karma goes up a ridiculous amount. if you blow it up,  you're bad for a really long time...for the same reason.

that early quest pretty well breaks the karma system lol

there is only one choice i can remember that is so evil that it can bring you back down from max good karma pretty quickly, and so as not to spoil it, i'll just say it involves burning something

the karma related stuff has no real relevance, it's the decisions causing said karma changes that matter more, ultimately. karma pretty well only exists for sparse dialogue choices and achievements
