      I kill this guy.

      I kill the replacement messanger guy they send to you at the strip.

      I go to Cottonwood Cove and kill all the legion troops there.

      I take the boat to Caesars Fort and kill Caesar in the most unceremonious way possible.

      They are weenies

      I took these guys out with a bunch of dynamite. Then I spent the rest of the game turning and running every time I saw a kill squad coming at me from the horizon - those guys hit like trucks, although one time they tried to take me out while I was at the Helios station and the NCR protected me. That was nice of them.

      I never understood the hate 3 got. It’s not that bad. Sure, New Vegas was better, but so was Terminator 2. Terminator is definitely an inferior movie compared to the sequel, rougher around the edges, but it’s still a good time.

        I understand the hate, I just don’t think it’s warranted. I’ve been watching videos about fallout 3 and it made me want to play it again but with a focus on exploration instead of just trying to min/max like I always do in New Vegas and I have to say fallout 3 gives more of a survival horror vibe than New Vegas where even if you’re not trying you can dominate everything within a few hours relatively. In contrast I’m like level 8 rn in fo3 and I really had to decide if I wanted to fight this group of talon company mercs or run away because I’ve been exploring for a while and don’t have the ammo to really put up a fight.

          Yeah Fallout 3 has its own vibe and it’s bleak and I like it. The atmosphere is great and those exact scenarios of “fuck I gotta use a stupid gun because I’m out of bullets for a good gun” make for some nail biting experiences
