False Advertising
Reviewers some reason claim that this game runs on Windows 10 OS. As it is, it does not. Trying the run the game as is, this version is no different than the Steam version. I really don't understand how you cannot figure out how to make this game work on Windows 10 OS's. Fallout New Vegas (which is basically the same game engine, assets, etc. as Fallout 3) runs Windows 10 OS with the only glaring problem being the bizarre autosave-perpetual-loading-screen error that rarely happens, but can easily be addressed without losing progress in-game. Recommendations: 1.) Remove Windows 10 compatibility from the store page for this game. Having to do some corrections, trail-and-errors, and install seemingly non-associated software is not something as I, an end-user and consumer should. 2.) I would assume the only way to run this game as is from download is by creating a partition or virtual machine of Windows XP on my computer, which I am not going to do as it is a waste of space on my computer just to run ONE game that doesn't run on the native OS. 3.) Have the Fallout 3-fanbase and community figure out how to get this game to run on Windows 10 OS's as you seem to have no idea what you are doing as the same mistakes exists from the Steam versions of this game (Yeah. There is the standard version and GOTY versions on Steam with both being "not Optimized for Windows 7 or later", which should simply say doesn't work on Windows 7, 8, 8.1, or 10 at all). 4.) I have actually gotten this game to work with the Steam version after doing some corrections to trick the game into thinking the proper graphic card is working and more than 2 cores exist. The fact that the game CHECKS for these hardware parameters should not exist a modern incarnation of this game. For anyone thinking about buying this game on here, DON'T! Just buy the Steam version and find a YouTube video tutorial on how to get this game to run on Windows 10. If I buy a case of lightbulbs, none should be broken.

Does not work At all
Like the title says it doesn't work. It crashes when you click play and thats it. I tried guides, tipps, intructions from tech support and also some mods. Nothing makes this run. It's just a waste of money and time.

What a disgrace of a game this is
I'm surprised that GOG sells this game that I cannot honestly describe other than a PoS. I bought the game a while back but only tried to play it now - I spent hours getting recommended mods to fix the widely-reported issues with crashing, etc. and initially it worked fine, no problems. I only had maybe 15 mods installed (including the DLCs) and most of them were deemed essential to playing the game by blogs. After playing for a few days, at one point when my character leveled up, the game started crashing. I reverted back to an older save (losing hours of playtime) and it worked for another two hours and then it started crashing again during saving. This garbage is unplayable. I'll say this though: even if the game was technically perfect, it still wouldn't be a great game - most of it is just aimless go-around-and-explore, finding basically the same interiors everywhere, fighting the same enemies and looting the same mostly-pointless objects. There isn't much reward to exploration - some of the quests are decent but the game feels like a pointless walking simulator. It's good for a while, but like New Vegas and Outer Worlds, it becomes boring and repetitive. There is very little in-game motivation to play. I love the original Fallout 1/2 and sort of liked New Vegas and wanted to like this game, too but it's just too much. Not recommended.
