Let's Play: Fallout 3

[Mr.Bookworm]

Huh, I never noticed that before.

Probably because every time I see Butch, I'm either too busy insulting his mother, beating the shit out of him in a fistfight, or shooting him. In the face.

Until he's dead.

EDIT: Coolio.

Er, I'm gonna say "Megaton".

Not the Main Quest.

Just Megaton.

[Krylo]

Fun fact. I shot him dead, and then reloaded, because it seemed too far out of character.

Edit: Fixed some of the pictures.

[Solid Snake]

I really want Lucy to destroy Megaton but if she goes to Megaton now, she'll develop connections to the people there and she's just too nice a person right now to backstab the people of Megaton if she meets them. So she needs to meet someone else first, be properly corrupted, and The Family might just be the ones to introduce her to a bit more of her darker side. The Family's a good easy(ier) quest to do at this time, and I don't think Lucy's strong enough yet to fight her way through DC, which would be the other natural impulse for anyone leaving a vault (held towards what looks like civilization.)

So I'd have Lucy head northwest, perhaps under the flawed assumption that DC was actually nuked and thus would be over-radiated.

What can I say? I don't really trust Fallout 3's ability to make an Elvis-like adult properly scale down to his maybe-childhood look.

Alas, it does not matter. If you are indeed correct, then Elvis was an ugly motherfucker as a 10 year old.

I vote heading north-northwest-ish towards Big Town/Arefu.

Note I haven't even come close to finishing the game though, so there's plenty of locations I've never heard of. Just recall plenty of stuff to do in that section.

[Krylo]

Yeah, they don't scale children down very attractively:



It is only the dark and the angle that keeps you from retching, I promise.

[Nikose Tyris]

I also vote Arefu next.

No Megaton means no Wadsworth, so you can just go straight to hell. That said, I say we venture east to seek the guidance of Dong Fang Qing Long. The gods wouldn't have abandoned us in these times.... right?

[DFM]

Fuck it, I say east towards Ten Penny Tower.

Stick with the Neutral/Evil sliding scale, it's a lot more interesting to read about a character who's constantly having to balance survival with at least a little bit of moralizing instead of DARTH LUCIFER, EATER OF WORLDS AND OF CHILDREN.

I want Dogmeat, so head for the scrapyard. I don't care where else you go or what you do there, just so long as Dogmeat accompanies us.

[Jagos]

Dammit, in almost every movie, the black guy always dies first. Why do they HAVE to put this in games also? >_<

Seriously, I don't know the directions but getting the dog sounds like a good plan.
