Current Events > Fallout 3's story is really awful

(+) Yeah! (+)

Morality basically boils down to be a genocidal maniac for no good reason or don't be a genocidal manic. Like what is the point of blowing up Megaton? The reward is nothing special. I think you get like 200 caps and a bed for wiping out the most important centralized hub in the game. The final choice boils down to give everyone water or kill everyone for no good reason. Again what is the point? You are shooting yourself in the foot for no good reason.

It's basically a complete joke like written by a edgy 14 year old. It seemed so much better when I played the game for the first time when I was 15.

Blowing people's head off in vats is fun though.

You know what really grinds my gears, forced rpg story. Fallout 4 and Skyrim both do this shit and it's dumb. In Fallout 4 you're married with a child and your whole story is to find your son after an nuclear event.
In Skyrim it starts out fine until the main story forces you to become dragonborn. It really kills any kind of create who you want to be and shape your own story in a true rpg sense.

You really don't think that in a post apocalyptic world some people would commit atrocious acts for a little bit of comfort/security/personal gain?

And as I recall ten penny tower is not only one of the most secure locations in the early game it's also the most lavish and comfortable place to be.
