Fallout 3: Game of the Year Edition

America will never fall to Communist invasion.

I can't say much more than what has already been said. I love the look and feel of the game, gritty. The way you can repair a weapon with parts from another of the same type is superior to having a weapon that never needs repair as in FO 4.

Fallout 3 is a game (great on Steam Deck)

Fallout 3 is my favorite RPG of all time. The main story is good. It does its job, and has some memorable moments. But it's also linear compared to what the rest of the game offers. What elevates fallout 3 are the DLCs. Point Lookout is pure atmospheric perfection, blending Fallout's post-apocalyptic world with creepy backwoods horror (my fav). The Pitt presents one of the most morally complex choices in the entire series . Broken Steel lets the story continue when it feels like it shouldn't end. Operation: Anchorage is a fun change of pace, and Mothership Zeta is exactly the kind of bizarre Fallout nonsense that somehow works. People often debate whether Fallout: New Vegas is the better RPG, and I understand why. But when I think about which Fallout game gave me the most unforgettable adventures, discoveries, and DLC experiences, it's always Fallout 3.

Muy buen juego, me gustaba más la jugabilidad del 1.° y del 2.° pero el cambio a un mundo abierto y a shooter en primera/tercera persona es más que bienvenido, y un cambio positivo para la saga. También lo veo como una buena experiencia para adentrarte en el mundo de Fallout.

i paid for the game, but can't play the game

Fallout 3 is truly a game of all time. Oh boy is that true. I can't really understand why I like it so much even if it stumbles doing the most basic mechanics of an RPG. Consider myself impressed! The good: The open world is a lot of fun fight me. It's 40% abandoned subways, 20% condemned houses, and 20% barren wastelands. I like looting things and finding ammo, food, and useful items. It tickles my monkey brain ok! The story is Jedi poodoo but there are a couple levels where it takes you where it's actually interesting. There's a ton of cool side missions I guess. The gameplay is weirdly fun? I think? Uhhhhh I also like Fawkes? I don't know man I'm really trying here. The game is surprisingly immersive for how bad the story and RPG mechanics are. Speaking of which... The bad: Basically everything else. I hate to be a debbie downer but what was the story about again? It's a load of nonsense that takes itself way too seriously. In a way that it loops back around to becoming ironically hilarious that Bethesda thinks your actually invested in it. Todd, my boy, I don't care! The obvious elephant in the room is the poor RPG stuff. You get: Be a goody tooshoes, Be a mercenary, be Hitler! There's no in-between and it sucks. The world can sometimes be tedious too, with just lazily designed structures. The dlcs are also buns (except the Pitt). Overall it's fine. I have WAY too many hours in this game to call it bad (despite what Steam may tell you). I prefer it any day over Fallout 4 but it's nowhere near as close to the quality as New Vegas. Whatever who cares. This is my first Fallout game. Viva la Fallout 3 suckers. Suck my fat one 6/10. "You think the metro is your ally? I was born in it, molded by it. I didn't see the wasteland till I was a man. By then it was nothing but BLINDNESS" - John Fallout

Barely an rpg

Just one of my favorite and best RPG's of all time.
