My Fallout 3 Karma

[The Man With the Soap]

I did every quest (bad ending) before I killed every person in a town, and generally got a lot of loot. I finished the game with 30,000 caps. Do you think I'll ever make that much in my good play through? NO!

I never, ever killed a Slaver however. I loved those guys.

In my second playthrough I have the highest karma level possible, I have almost every unique item in the game (including the stealth suit, gause rifle, and the power armor that never degrades), I killed every slaver, and I have 100,000 caps (I shit you not).

My first playthrough began as a good guy, but then I found Paradise Falls and spent the rest of my playthrough trying to recover my karma (I only managed to bring it up to evil).

 

[The Man With the Soap]

I didn't play to far through on evil because frankly it wasn't as interesting. Having said that I did end up quick-loading alot during my good play through, due to irritation at an NPC resulting in power fist death. Is there anyone else who after a couple of hours of playing a game like fallout 3 feels prone to killing rampages? (in game obviously, i mean if its the other kind maybe you could check in with your local psyche ward). Also why is it impossible to kill one member of a town without the rest noticing?

have you seen how few people there are in these towns? they'd have to be pants-on-head-retarded not to notice when one of the twelve other people in the town not to notice

Firstly.... check your grammar.

Secondly, you shouldn't have blown up Megaton at first - recruit Jericho, slaughter the town, loot the town, then blow it up.

Dude, that was totally me. I have never had more fun than headshotting the sheriff after challenging him to an arms race...Then I fatmanned three dog, because I didn't think it was possible to kill him. I have never been so happy.

But to answer the original question, no, I do not find Evil boring. I have never had so much fun. Sure it can be boring after a while, but just go to rivet city and blow everyone's nickers off, then it becomes fun again.

Ok now i was playing Fallout 3.. enjoyed it ... while i was playing did the average you know find dog meat diffuse the
bomb kill mr burke
the sheriff dies oo and the useal play around with corpes.

but some how my save file gets deleted so i had to start all over again not much of a problem since i only had about 3 or 4 hours of playing time. but the next time i started to play i was smart i made one "good" file and one "evil" file so i decided to see whats it like being evil and ya i basically blow up megaton kill lots of innocent people and steall lots of stuff and you know What ?????


BEING EVIL IS BORING!!!! seriously when i was playing good it was fun i got lots of stuff and was really immersed but when i played evil it just got more and more boring

i really tried to have fun being evil but it never help anyone else got the same thing ??

i skipped the details on purpose so i can ansewer questions (not sure if that makes much sense though)

that's because you didn't find the evil joys, the game has, like paradise falls, and the tiny slasher bit, priceless

I think it's really easy to be evil. Break into every room and steal from everyperson and blow people up by slipped live gernades into their pants. It's really easy

Sure but why make the leap that it was me that killed them? there are plenty of other shifty characters and why do they do it hive mind style, where I kill someone quietly out of view and next thing I know the entire town is instantly hostile.

You either weren't out of view or didn't kill them fast enough. I've killed/enslaved dozens of people and they only notice if you do it in front of them.

It would seem my methods require a little more precision. Perhaps punching their arm off was a little noisy.

In just about all RPG's I play an evil character and love every bit of it. But for some reason I didn't enjoy being "pure evil" in Fallout 3 as much as I'd expected. My first play-through I just did whatever the hell I felt like at the time. So, on my second I decided to go all-out evil.

Maybe it was because it was my second play-through and I was bored of doing the same quests over again, who knows, but yeah, I definitely found it boring being evil ALL the time.

hmmm very true

I went neutral. I kill and steal everything outside of the mayor cities, but my evil deeds are always compensated for by the quests that I do (I'm a sucker for completing quests). I did dabble in both good and evil though, but in the end neutral was the easiest way for me. I'll go evil next time though, maybe I'll put some points in energy weapons this time.

I can never bring myself to take the evil murderous path, I just feel too damn bad. I even felt bad for killing the raider merchant to get the Terrible Shotgun.. ok so he was an evil raping pillaging ************ but he was kinda friendly to me...

I felt the same, but in the end that gun is so totally worth it.

Yeah, once i got it and combined it with the entomologist perk it made the giant radscorpions finally feel less terrifying.

I had a great time deciding this. My first run through, which was on ps3 mind you, started with a good character. My brother had come over to try it out, and had saved and started a file, which overwrote mine. So I created one again. I decided to name this person Lust, a female, and embody everything that would entail. Immediately I destroy anyone I can. Rough neck Burke into giving me the max amount of caps. Kill most everyone, except be nice to Gob, I love that guy. I sit there and beat the piss out of Burke until he snaps. Blow up Megaton. Kill everyone in Oasis. Tell the kid in Rivet City to go outside and run away. Oh and what to do with that cyborg, tell him he is one, turn him in, get his gun and the perk, then kill them both. Tenpenny tower, kill Burke in his sleep, take his glasses. Kill tenpenny and everyone else inside then let the ghouls in. I let them live.. for now.

Now what has truly trade marked this for me.
How many people will buy everything from a merchant on the outside of town, just to kill them and get it all back? Total satisfaction of beating a bramin for 20 minutes.

Also, the homeless asking for clean water...

Oh I give it to them.. I do..





...Then I blow their head off.

Don't ever ask me for water.

I have a sneaking suspicion that, if F3 had co-op, you and I would get on very well in it.

Haha well I hear there is an MMO in the works. Team-Homeless killer 4twwwwwwwwwwww
