hey folks, i just grabbed fallout 3 goty edition, and was wondering if i should play the game vanilla first so i would appreciate the unique new bits added by DLC, or install all the DLC at the start and get the whole thing right now?

Well, the DLCs don't add to the gameplay, they add to the gameworld, so not installing them would make you miss out for no good reason.

Operation Anchorage gives you better equipment, and the simulation you run can be undertaken at any level, so I suggest at least doing that first.

all you're gonna do is replay it again with DLC, so skip the first step and go directly to "Play first with DLC"

It'll just fudge up your experience without the DLC any ways.

You could install it now and just play the game without using it?
Of course, i would at least recommend doing operation anchorage first so you get the winterised T51 power armour that never degrades.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3xla3OqL4m8 this also tells you how to keep the weapons and armour you get in the anchorage simulation
It doesn't really affect the outcome of the story or anything so i would just say install it now and have fun

If you wanted answers, you shouldn't have put Pie in as an option on the poll

If you have the option to add everything off the bat, why not. Get the whole game right away.

Some of the DLC, like Anchorage, actually fixes a few bugs with followers disappearing. I'd install them now.

The only thing really changed in Colonel Autumn's Laser Pistol, which is no longer fully automatic when you install Brohen Steel.

You don't even notice any changes until late game around lvl 20 when your cap expands and they add harder enemies. Besides maybe heaing about hearng about the DLC.
