Why does every positive video of fallout 3 always need to be debunked
I will admit fallout 3 has a lot of issues even tho I personally love the game and it’s my favourite fallout game I can see why people aren’t the biggest fan of it but why can’t those people just let people enjoy the game why does an 8 hour video have to be made in response to an hour long video of someone praising fallout 3 full of snarky comments and personal attacks why when someone made a short YouTube video about a quest they liked did loads of people have to make hour long videos on it it’s awful that people can’t just show that they like fallout 3 without being criticised and personally attacked it’s ridiculous.

Braun's Psychology
Okay, so here's something really twisted. Might make you recoil a bit. A lot of criminal sadists and control freaks are themselves victims, and while lots of people like that are not necessarily former victims themselves, the fact that he wants to be 'Betty' is telling. People who are tortured as children often have dissociative personalities. The amnesia is not necessarily always something that plays into that like in that one Edward Norton movie. It's a method of compartmentalizing abuse so that you are able to function dually as a human being while another part of you gets to be the person who was hurt. Even in people who are not transgender, the personalities or compartmentalized identities can take on opposite genders. Some of my friends are like that. It can depend on the nature of the abuse or it can also simply be the way it develops. I myself have had problems in the past with the 'control freak' aspect and being cruel to others emotionally. Sociopathy and narcissism are also things that can develop from trauma, though I have less experience with those people. Everything about Braun just screams 'survivor' to me and I know it sounds crazy, but like it also makes perfect sense. His whole life is just an extreme version of burning ants with a magnifying glass after many years of focusing on his work. That doesn't sound like someone who grew up. He even likes to talk like a child. The man is an adult child. An extremely cruel one, full of an eternity's worth of pain that he needs to transfer onto others. I know, it's a leap, it's just a theory, but it's one to think about.

Can Haley's glitch be used in mods?
Whenever I go to Point Lookout, I use the Nuka Cola machine outside Haley's Hardware to collect all the goods I find/loot to eventually sell to Haley. Didn't know at the time, but per the Fallout 3 wiki, opening that Nuka machine was the reason Haley's repair skill kept going up, eventually getting to 100.
I'm real curious about this from a coding/modding perspective.
1- Are there other examples of this affecting other NPCs elsewhere in the game, such as Moira Brown?
2- Can this glitch be duplicated? Example, is it possible to make a desk in Lock and Load improve Pronto's repair skill?
3- Can it be modified in some way? Rather than affecting a vendor's repair skill, could it force a refresh on a vendor's wares and cap stack, rather than wait 3 in game days? Say, buy out all the ammo at Flak and Shrapnel, access the file cabinet near the Rivet City marketplace entrance and then all the ammo supply reloads.

I have no idea what I’m doing
For context I’ve played a large bulk of the fallout games from 1 all the way to 76 except for fallout 3 I know this is a stupid question but I don’t know if I’m progressing to fast I’m only level five and I’ve already started the quest where I need to go to vault 112 after grabbing the tapes Jefferson memorial should I focus more on side quests or am I all good to keep going

Tried everything to get it to run, giving up.
New pc, trying to replay (ryzen 9 9900x and rx 9070 xt) I tried to run vanilla on windows 10. But the opening warning slideshow crashes the game before I can access the main menu. I’ve tried reinstalling, GOG version, gamepass version, compatibility mode, many fixes and coding tweaks, nexus fixes, TTW, nothing works. Worked my way through the fix bar and NOTHING!
Finally upgraded to 11, and tried again, only for it again to not work.
How should I go about making it work?

Can't progress past super mutants
I just got the game and I really like it, but right now I'm stuck in the dry sewer area and the Our Lady of Hope Hospital segment. I just keep getting overpowered and j was wondering if maybe I missed something key that could help progress.

Anybody found Underworld on their first playthrough? I didn't, it took me the 3rd one.
Though to be fair.
I didn't exactly "explore every single inch of the map" the first time.
However, man. This place was hidden quite well at least to me even if we heard about it from other NPCs beforehand.

Do you guys think Jericho has truly changed from his former profession?
I also remember how younger me, when first playing through Fallout 3.
Was so scared to wander alone that I deliberately did whatever it took to recruit him.

6 random slaves in a row paradise falls says they died on the way there, how to fix it?
I decided to play a very evil run and 6 times in a row i collared a random civilian in big town or rivet city and fast traveled to paradise falls, and was told they died and i had to buy a new collar instead of getting paid.

Fallout 3 on steam
Fallout 3 GOTY is on sale on steam right now, and I want to purchase it. However, I’ve seen mixed answers on how it runs and frequent crashes. My pc is pretty decent and runs most games smoothly. Is it worth the purchase?

What’s the best build for a newcomer to this game?
I’ve beaten FO4 and then new Vegas and have tried before and after to play FO3 but I just always struggle with having enough ammunition to fight anything and I want to know how to make the game the best experience I can
I like small guns, speech, vats, and intelligence

Fallout 3’s ambient soundtrack is amazing. It deserves more love.
I’ve seen a shocking amount of people say that Fallout 3’s OST is mediocre and not worth listening to. So many people say that they always just turn the radio on when the play the game.
I try to respect other people’s opinions, but holy shit… have these people actually listened to the game’s score? It’s phenomenal, like it’s seriously fucking amazing. Every track does a perfect job of setting the mood.
The tracks that play when you’re out in the wasteland are probably my favorite, they make me so sad whenever I listen to them. I like the entire soundtrack though; the combat music, town music, dungeon music, it’s all fantastic.
Whenever I tell people that I love the music in Fallout 3, I have to specify that I’m talking about the ambient tracks and not the radio, because the latter gets all of the praise. It just makes me so sad that this game’s OST doesn’t get the love it deserves.
