Posted November 7, 2008 Haven't quite got into this yet. Only at level 3 or something and have only done one side quest in Megaton, but for some reason I'm struggling for motivation to get into it. Last night I was bored and instead of going to play Fallout for an hour I found myself playing Minesweeper. I know once I get into it I'll love it but I'm struggling to. Maybe fatigue from Fable or something, who knows. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 7, 2008 Yeah I felt the same as you when at that level, but things begin to develop quickly. Basically I had one mammoth session of doing stuff and now I don't want to play anything else. Just played this again for a bit, I have completed the Lucies message quest as well as the Big Town one - managed to save both Red and Shorty. Thing is once I complete this I always have to ask for a reward, which feels stupid but something that'lh help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 7, 2008 If you want a competent follower you should pick up the chick over at the museum where you get the declaration of independence. She has low health but is lethal with her weapon, can easily spray down a super mutant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 7, 2008 Just got this today and blow me, the sheriff is dead. The fool that I am, I told him about the bomb blowing plot, he goes all sheriff, turns his back on the plotter and gets some shots in his back. Damn. The bigger fool I am to run through the door after him, only to realise that the autosave is my most recent save! *Sigh* not a good start Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ah thanks for that. Is a MASSIVE weight off my shoulders (I know its a game but still, his son runs up to you and acts as a constant reminder. His coat looks good on me though :P) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 8, 2008 I'm now up to level 8 and 1/4. Just did the Ant-Agonizer quest, haven't dealt with the Mechanist, but may do if it bags me XP. The ant-agonizer was crap, I thought it would put up more of a fight but I guess the quest may hae been intended for true beginners. My character is a bit of a gun-nut. I don't really sneak and I've got lots of points on 'small guns'. When levelling up I improve most things, but a couple of skills I upgrade more. My barter is pretty low for my level.

Posted November 8, 2008 Just an idea...but I think perhaps some things in this thread need spoilers. Especially possible plot decisions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 8, 2008 just got a new weapon, now as long as im not rushed by them, even death claws are no threat. that said, i managed to get plonked into the middle of some raiders and anouther group of enemys when i tavled. was a nightmare, don't matter how high you level up, missles still hurt.
