Still my favorite
After Fallout 4 and New Vegas, Fallout 3 looks a little dated, but I still say it's the most fun Fallout, at least among the 3D ones. Not a fan of the old Fallout strategy games. Different genre/playstyle. These are first person shooters with RPG elements. Fallout 3 always was a buggy game on PC, so head over to the Fallout 3 Nexus (Google it) and grab the unofficial patch (in top files). It'll fix a ton of little things. In my opinion, you don't need mods for this game, but there are a lot of great options, like FWE (Wanderer's Edition) and Mart's Mutant Mod. Also, the bounties mods were fun. Here's a tip for your first game: When you get to Megaton, skirt around to the right, and look for a rock with 3 dead trees around it. The rock is actually a container with a new gun, and other goodies. It's a developer secret. Also, tag Explosives when you take the GOAT, or at least have the skill at 25 when you level up upon leaving the Vault. When you enter Megaton, run past the mayor and go disarm the nuke in the middle of town. You get a better reward for doing it without being asked first. (Unless you want to play an evil character, in which case you'll be blowing it up, but don't do that until you've done The Wasteland Survival Guide long enough to talk Moira out of quitting, and only then nuke Megaton (also recruit the raider as a follower, I forget his name, Lucas maybe? Hangs out at the bar by the nuke. Won't talk to you if you're good).
Is this helpful to you?
