What happens if Dogmeat dies before you get the Puppies! perk?

10 Upvotes

my doggy companion has fallen in the capital fighting a super mutant behemoth. I’m not at the level yet where I have unlocked the broken steel puppies perk. So what happens? Does a puppy still respawn at vault 101?

Which DLC to do after anchorage/zeta?

10 Upvotes

Just finished ancorage, starting zeta tonight. Which DLC after that?

Pretty new to the game, only like lvl 10 on my first playthough but enjoying it a lot.

I did use the search bar before I asked this question, but everyone only recommends ancorage first then zeta, nothing after that. Any tips greatly appreciated.

Is Moira really hated? (Poll included)

8 Upvotes

I don't really engage with the fallout "community" at all. While replaying fo3 for the first time in a while, I decided to look up if choosing the snarky responses for her quest would make her upset and if so is there a way around it. Doing this I found all sorts of comments about how she's the worst character! Looking up videos about her ghoulification, everyone in the comments seem to share the sentiment that they wish it killed her! Is she really that hated? I absolutely adore her and have always considered her one of the best characters in the game. I just assumed that would have been everyone else's sentiment as well because her being loveable seems obvious to me. I'm not surprised to find out that different opinions exist, because duh, but is wanting her dead really the majority opinion?

I'm playing fallout 3 on ttw and I thought this mechanic of the "friend" deathclaws was really cool, even though I was VERY afraid of them getting out of mental control and ending up killing me

Why is Fallout 3 so hated among fans?

423 Upvotes

Before I begin, im a “new-gen” Fallout fan, I watched the show and it was amazing, so I played through Fallout 4, NV, been having some fun on 76, and thought, “why don’t I try 3?” I watched some Youtube videos on it, and there is like 8 hour videos about how it’s trash? I wanted to see for myself. I bought the game, and im not far in right now, but its stellar for me, im playing on a very old Laptop, so im not amazing at the game, but I love using the guns, and I love the atmosphere, the green tint is so beautiful, and I love the long, and scary Metro tunnels, I love the weapon designs (specifically the combat shotgun lmao) and all of that, so I just wonder why don’t people like it?

I have bought Fallout 3 on steam and every single time I press new game, it just crashes. I have looked up how Fallout 3 doesnt like intel graphic card, and even inserted the code. But it still doesnt work. Does anyone by chance know what to do. Thank you.

In terms of Fallout 3’s PS3 port

18 Upvotes

So I’ve first started the franchise with Fallout 3 and New Vegas on PS3 almost a lifetime ago, and relatively recently gotten New Vegas on pc, and I have to say had an absolute blast when compared to PS3, and even more recently have seen vids about development for NV where they mention the PS3 port having even more cuts than 360 and PC, is it the same case for 3?

Tl:dr PS3 new Vegas not as great as PC/360 due to further memory limitations, is it same for PS3 F3?

Want to do another FO3 play through - worth it to do it modded?

22 Upvotes

I’ve played at LEAST a couple hundred hours of fo3 on PlayStation 3 way back in the day, but I’ve recently had the itch to go back for another full run. Are there any mods that really help this game reach its full potential? I’d be open to anything. Thank you!
