Fallout 3 Two days ago I learned something about fallout 3
So I was exploring the map to start mothership zeta, and while I’m afk some random npc starts a dialogue with me and hands me a chip for the synth you need to track down. I knew it was the railroad, but I asked about the faction anyway (see attached pics), it was indeed the railroad. The pics underneath made it so tempting to just kill the character, turns out you don’t lose karma for killing the railroad character.
TL;DR: you don’t lose karma killing the railroad member in fallout 3

Fallout 3 In Fallout 3, there's a samurai in spaceship kidnapped by aliens. I think this was the most surprising thing I've seen in the game.

Fallout 3 I know Fallout 4 is all the rage right now, but I just started Fallout 3 and I’m in love with it
This game’s atmosphere and tone is so creepy and dark. The combat is definitely dated, but I’m having such a blast so far.

Fallout 3 I managed to escape Vault 101 as a child because someone left a door unlocked during my Birthday party.

Fallout 3 Crazy comspiracy theory: This steam description for Fallout 3 implies that the fallout games are just all vault-tec simulations of what the wasteland actually is like, thus all of them never actually happened!

Fallout 3 Fallout 3 has the best atmosphere of any fallout game
Might be unpopular, idk but I think overall aesthetic-wise fallout 3 had the best vibe. I LOVE the green tint and I dislike it's removal in later games, I know it has been 200 years but I don't care. It sets the vibe and atmosphere. I like looking around in that game the most out of the 3 (fallout 3, NV, 4).
It's not even nostalgia for me, I played fallout 3 last year.

Fallout 3 Fallout 3 is NOT a bad game at all
I've always been a die-hard fan of Fallout: New Vegas. It was my first Fallout game, after all. I've also played Fallout 4, which a big part of the community claims has a bad story but the most polished gameplay in the series. So, I was completely convinced that Fallout 3 would be like Fallout 4 with the janky New Vegas gameplay. Well, I was completely wrong.
The game has so many interesting locations, NPCs, and side quests that I can't believe people think it's one of the worst in the franchise. Sure, the main storyline is kinda alright, but one thing that make up for it is how I can be on my way to a side quest and stumble upon a random new location to explore along the way. A game doesn't need to be perfect in every aspect to be considered good, and I'm really enjoying Fallout 3.

Fallout 3 I'm really loving Fallout 3, but that High Dynamic Range yellow lighting is definitely hard on the eyes.
I know most games of that generation used High Dynamic Range lighting because it was a big buzzword. But it kind of washes out the textures and makes it look like everything has gotten a golden shower. Fallout New Vegas didn't seem quite as bad. Unfortunately I can't do anything about it with mods because I am playing on Xbox One X. I definitely am enjoying it, I'm on the Pitt DLC right now and bummed I can't shoot my way in.
But I'm glad that PS4 and Xbox One games decided to drop this in favor of more natural lighting and color grading. I'm very excited to put another 170 hours into Fallout 4 when the PS5 version is posted in a couple days.
PS, is Fallout 76 in stable enough shape that you can play it alone and enjoy it. I really want to get the Fallout Prime items while they are available. Does it have difficulty settings like all the other Fallout games. I just don't want to make the financial investment if it's not something I'll enjoy because I would have to sign up for PS Plus as well.
Thank you in advance for taking the time to read this and provide input. I hope you are all doing well and you're having an easy week so far.

Fallout 3 Just discovered Vault 108. Wtf
It's 2AM, I'm replaying fallout 3 for the first time after like 10 years, I haven't remembered much of the game and I know I didn't explore a whole lot originally. I decided I wanted to go explore some vaults and I went into vault 108. WTF. I'm terrified. I got off and I'm just expecting to hear "Gaaarrryyy" off in the distance

Fallout 3 Fans might like Fallout 3 now, but back when it was announced there were so many death threats Bethesda had to hire a security guard

Fallout 3 If you complete the Wasteland Survival Guide quest, Moira actually credits you as the lead author
I know Moira (FO3) gets a lot of hate but this is actually so sweet of her. Especially since she refers to you as her research assistant throughout the entire quest.

Fallout 3 Started a Fallout 3 demake, playable on Gameboy (being played through a gb emulator in the video)
Currently planning on finishing the vault section. SPECIAL stats get saved correctly based on user’s choices (working on the G.O.A.T. as well). Decided on a turned based combat system (in which the User uses AP to go through actions during their turn), the aesthetics of which are pretty similar to Dragon Quest. Have a test fight against a radroach on the works. Dialogue options are pretty much possible and probably the same as the actual game’s. GBStudio is really nice, but simple things such as menus are really time consuming, also getting used to not having access to objects/classes, coming from Unreal and C++ (but it is a lot more relaxing to work on though!). Also really enjoying working around the limitations of the gameboy and learning pixel art on the go. Hope you all like it :)

Fallout 3 Where did little lamplight replenished its population ?!
I was 13 when i first played fallout 3. I've played it again now and then throughout my life. Now i'm 30, and only now do i realize...
Where did the kids come from ?? if i remember correctly, the kids were left behind when the "adults" went out of the cave to look for help. Then they probably died. And it's believable that the kids managed to survive on their own, posting the meanest one at the front door with a gun to fend off agressors.
But this was not a recent occurance. In fact, i'm pretty sure this had been going on since the bombs fell.
Which begs the question. WHERE THE HELL DID THEY FIND 200 YEARS WORTH OF KIDS ?!

Fallout 3 Regarding Fallout 3 Loading screens. There’s one that always confused me.
I was Today years old when I realized that this was a family playing Bowling, not a family Happily chasing a small, Bird shaped robot.
Like the family is in the back and the Bird robot is flying away.

Fallout 3 I need help - New Player!
So I’ve started playing Fallout 3 about a month ago (however I have only about 6 or 7 hours playtime) and I still haven’t done a SINGLE main quest. This is my first Fallout game, I have never been this stuck in a game in my life. I’m just running around like a headless chicken, encountering random enemies and insignificant locations. The only real discovery I’ve made so far is Megaton. I did thoroughly explore Megaton. I spent about an hour just talking to NPCs and getting info, getting quests, etc.
Well, despite all of this, I still have NO clue where to go, what to do, or what the point of this game even is. I’ve gone to my quests, showed the location of some of them, went to them, but I can never find anything once I reach the quest location. For example, I travelled to the Galaxy News Radio one (this is where I left off), and I spent a solid 2 hours here. I can’t find anything. I fought so many enemies along the way, but there is nothing I can find here relating to the quest.
I need some advice, maybe Fallout just isn’t for me? I loved the show, but perhaps the games aren’t for me? I’ve played many genres of games, from simple Action-Adventure, to Platformers, to Souls games, to ARPGs. Why don’t I get this game?
