I want this to be remastered so badly it would be so awesome, i honestly love this game more than fallout 4

That first time you leave the vault is the best gaming moment I've ever experienced.

You missed the hallowed out rock behind megatown for a free sniper and ammo

Fallout 3, the memories I had with that game are priceless. If you haven't played this game yet, then you are missing out on a new perspective of life. This game changed my life. Thank you so much :) Edit: can’t believe I wrote this 3 years ago.. I already graduated high school, times change man :(

“There’s a nice cache down here.... minus the bodies if he gives you the key” this got me laughing so hard bro. Very good video btw

Actually there are 3 time to get the first bobble head first time when dad is examining you before goat its sitting there and u can just grab it

Get the INT bobblehead before level 3 for more skill points. Get Dogmeat before then too because he levels up with you, unlike the other followers. This means he's goes into maximum bork overdrive and can one-shot most enemies in the late game. Great guide, this keeps the game alive! Lastly, but most importantly remember: tunnel snakes rule.

such a classic game. about 6 months ago i played this game to 100% completion.

Someone probably already said it, but you can get the bobblehead before the goat

Don't forget the lucky 8 ball in big town, it's a temporary buff (+1 luck) but as long as it's in your inventory it counts for perks

It makes me so happy that this game is still alive after so many years

I honestly almost just crapped myself, I was up to the bit with getting the strength bobblehead, I needed to pick the lock to the front door. I snuck in and went upstairs with no issues, I thought nobody saw me. I picked up the bobblehead and turned around to see some kid just standing in the doorway looking at me. I actually jumped so badly.

Started with 4, went to 76, moved to NV, never realized how horrifying the Supermutants were.

Just got this again as I’m bored due to the lockdown. so many great memories are flooding back. One of my favourite games of all time.

Dude i felt SO bad when Moira comes up to you as a ghoul 😢

Great video. I remember playing the beginning of this game thousands of times trying different builds. One note on Sheriff Lucas is you can tell him about the guy wanting to blow up megaton, and he will confront him and get killed if you don’t save him. This way you get his gear, silenced 10mm, key to armory and can still turn in quest to his son for payment and your new house. 🤘

Started playing again yesterday, I’m glad I found this video! Last time I played this was in 2013

Thanks so much dude. I started playing fallout 4 a month ago and have all the dlcs and almost completed it. (I have 4 days on it so far) This guide was great because on my first playthrough I visited megaton and then began the main questline and I had no caps and wasn’t doing too good. Thanks again!!

Amazing guide! I really appreciate this. I really love the tips for Anchorage to get the general's sword that's unbreakable. Like that's game changing because that weapon is actualy kind of op.

Awesome content man! You can enter the nuclear bunker without the 5 codes. You just need to go third person mode and pull the lever from the other side. :) Keep it up

It would be scary to think about the amount of hours ive put into fallout 3 and oblivion ive played both of those games for a decade...insane

Didn't find it in this video, so i'll say it. Talk to Doc Church about the people of Megaton, and he'll bring up Leo Stahls Chem Addiction. Talk to him about it and convince him to stop. He'll then give you a key to his stash in the water plant, it has about 100 caps, plus a big stash of chems

Just completed my first save of fallout 3 and i have to thank you so much and I couldn’t have done it without this video

Thank you! This guide has helped me so much, I used to play up until megaton and then stopped, this video has helped me so much. Much appreciated!

You can also talk butch into killing them on his own if you give him a weapon and then go with him and help save his mom. You get another speech check for xp and you can get him as a follower when you return to the vault later in the game. Something not many people know about in fallout 3 is that you can jump off of high locations without getting killed or even hurt as long as there's something you can target with vats at the bottom, jump down and target them with vats when you are close to them and punch them once then immediately holster your fists so whoever you hit does not turn hostile. Unfortunately this trick does not work in new vegas.

I remember when my brother introduced me to Fallout 3 on his xbox 360. Man I remember how often I'd fire that bad boy up when he'd go off to work then beggin for an "extra 10 minutes or lemme finish the quest!" This game is an all time favorite hands down. Its depressing to see where Bethesda went as a company having gems like this under their belt. The kids coming from 4 and 76 will never understand just how nostalgic it is to think back to New Vegas and F3. Of course I'm aware of the even older OGs but I was cemented in F3. Flashy online gameplay and graphics was not needed then to make a game great. Just a great concept and mediocre graphics was enough to do... games like F3, NV, GtaSa, Fear, and Fate games to name a few hit the nail on the head. To this day each I could replay over and over. Not many games today have that kind of replay value. Just focused on the initial sale and some live service update/ gameplay bullshit.

I was at about 4 hrs playtime by thr time I got the ghouls into tenpenny tower but I wandered off a little. Wonderful guide thanks man.

Thank you so much I can't believe how much stuff I missed while playing the game

I came from fallout 4 boy the difficulty of this game scales up a lot higher and I am struggling with this game so hard

your fallout vids are epic... very helpful... i always learn a ton from your vids... and i consider myself a fallout veteran, but your tutorials are a godsend... thank you!

So much to take in but awesome video none the less. Thank you, I will have to do another play through but with out a loot grind. Cant wait, thanks again for taking the time to make this video. I subbed too BTW.

great guide i played fallout 3 so much after my uncle gave it to me but 2 things where missing. Earlier in the vid both minor but at the street check the mail box and behind megaton there a rock with 3 trees sarounding it you can get a stealth boy, a sniper and some ammo. But still overall amazing guide.

10/10 will keep this in mind! thanks bro :3

Awesome video man. I followed your video step by step but messed up the gary 23 glitch the first time lol and had to start over but the sick loot was worth it 🤙🏻

Great guide! Been thinking about replaying the game again

"Theres a fat man the shoots 8 nukes at a time, but I dont think you need it"

Dude, your voice is so soothing. This vid is really chill and straight to the point - this game is no breeze and you've nailed it! Keep up the great work :D

Okay. I’m like brand new to the Fallout universe, having never owned a system that could play it back in the day. This video is so helpful! I struggled to get through some of the first few areas/missions, wandering about the wasteland with no sense of direction or even an understanding of where to start and what perks/skills to start with. I’m really not all that far into the game, but after watching just the first five minutes of this video, I’m totally starting over.

I am an old gamer and it took me a while to figure out the 10mm glitch, because I misunderstood “buy everything from Moira” because I could not do that, not enough caps even after getting ask the caps as you described... but by chance and frustration I did the 10mm trick and it worked! I thought the glitch would happen AFTER you bought EVERYTHING from her... what I realized if that you buy all you CAN and spend all your caps, so that you can recover all of it to buy the house stuff... (facepalm...)... thank you, man, thank you...!

Wow i can't beliv i enjoyed watching this long video xd. Tq for the tips man!

You can get the house accessories free. To do so, enter Craterside Supply then go to the wall in front of the stairs that lead to the upper floor. If you use the 3rd-person camera rotation exploit you will find there is a locker behind the wall. Inside are the house accessories. BTW I think it's a mistake to choose swift learner. XP is easy to earn in this game. Any of the other perks would be better

Ty ty man, loved your FNV guides and just recently picked this game up on sale. Cheers!

i just subbed because their is so much good information in this video. Keep the videos coming!:)

i love how no nonsense this is

You don't need the codes for that door (Keller Family Vault). There's a glitch. If you crouch by the right side of the door, you can actually reach the switch (on the other side of the door) with little difficulty.

Hey man firstly I want to say thank you so much for doing this, haven't dusted off fallout 3 in almost a decade now so to have a cliff notes version of a fresh start is noice! If I can leave one constructive comment for you is to level the audio for the game a little more, there are small sections where it was hard to make out what was said lol all good that's what the rewind buttons for.

This is as straightforward as it get. Big kudos

I’ve always thought swift learner is the worst perk you can get in fallout, it’s not that much extra xp and you level at a good rate in all these games. I’ve always seen it as useless, you could just kill like 4 more enemies lol

You missed the Lucky 8 Ball in Big Town, heal the kid in the clinic before the super mutant fight and he gives it to you after. It acts as a permanent +1 to luck meaning it counts towards perk reqs. which also frees up a point in the beginning SPECIAL allocation

Just finished my Skyrim best mage build from your advice on your other video. This video gave me so much nostalgia. I haven't played fallout 3 since my senior year of hs 2012 :/

@2:25 You can obtain the Medicine Bobblehead from your dad's desk beforehand. I swiped it before confronting the Tunnel Snakes/taking the G.O.A.T. ~hehe... Thanks for the helpful tips! Your hard work and dedication are very much appreciated ^-^

Don't forget to loot Springvale. Lots of easy stuff there and no enemies when you first start. Also you can get all the upgrades for your house for free. Its pretty easy but may take a few tries. You can speech 400 caps from Silver in Springvale, another 500 from Lucas Simms in Megaton, loot the safe in the cafe next to the bomb for another 300, fix the pipes for Wlater for 200 and sell all the stuff you looted from the vault, Springvale and your Megaton house for about another 300. That's about 1700 caps before your first nap. Way better than my first time through.

Beat guide I watched and the one that accualy helped me

Such a good guide I’ll have to go back and try this one!

Bro, I can't thank you enough. This is going to help me. I think Fallout 3 is the best game of all time. I will be getting the DLC's I only have the Brotherhood one. Thank you again man.

Don’t forget to run to river city before leveling up at all to get the intelligence bobble head more points or level if you’re at 10 also choose the educated perk ASAP and save all skill books until after you take comprehension perk

Love this game! Is there a way to heal Lucky Harith? Later in the game I see him limping, and has lot of damage. Then he's gone...

The last one took hours but it worked, thank you soo much

Thanks for the tips mate( greetings from Australia)

this video is a total nostalgia trip

Don’t forget to read the copy of grognak the barbarian that Amata gives you when you’re 10.

Thanks bro these are some really helpful tips

Great video. The gun glitch also works with combat armour, buy the cheap one and you get the full one instead.

You don't have to put your explosion to 25 , you can just pop 2 mentats

I think after you get out of the vault go to megaton by ammo and get abducted by aliens if you have the DLC and then get all their op weapons so that way it's really easy to kill everybody that gets annoying and if you complete all the other DLCs you can just get all kinds of different weapons that are really good and then you can complete the normal storyline easily

This is a great video dude, I killed this game back when it was first released along with all DLC's. I'm expecting the game of the year edition to arrive anyday now so this will be of great help although I think I'll go to rivet city first to get that intelligence bobble head apart from that I'll try to follow your advice. Thanks again.

Have to revisit this now. Perfect pace for the video. Skipping the hand holding.

Crazy how I failed both the speech challenges in that house and then with the sheriff

Yo nice video but u should do a guide for mother ship dlc as i get lost every time i play that

Great work 👍🏻👍🏻 thx for the tips

lockpick, science, speech. first problem is lockpick 50 in dads office, which u can do later on in the game. second is speech with butch. third is as soon as u first level up, put all stats into repair. because if u dont then u cant take and repair everything like weapons to outfits in the vault. fourth is exit the vault and level up and put all stats into speech. fifth is speech with woman in springvale. then sixth is speech with sheriff at megaton. first is do the water in megaton, then start survival guide quests and do radiation first, then food from that store then land mines. when u get to level up i focus on getting lockpick to 100 asap so i can get that lock picked in megaton at armoury and do everything in megaton befor i venture off out of there until further or when i blow up megaton if i choose. i believe there is a strategy but its also RPG role playing however u like. the thing i hate about most is u could have high speech and still fail which annoys me. i have high speech, 2+ speech outfit and drink beer and still fail like wtf bethesda! im getting back on this game and gonna start a new game. i platinum it on PS3 when it first came out and ive had it a while on PC but not played it long enough and ended up starting new games and getting so far then not playing on it for a while but i also downloaded add ons for this and still havent got that far yet lol i would love to screen record and post it like a movie and 4k and walk and eat and sit and rest and sleep and make it good ya know but its very hard work and ive tried it and fuck up and need to save at right points and stuff. like my first video could consist of an hours play until i exit vault. or it could be longer like 2 hours play with me make it to megaton and see people and do stuff till its dark and go to sleep and video ends. video 2/part 2 i wake up and start my day. howmany series would u like to see? ive thought of it and can do it but struggle. i wish i could do videos like use guys.

Good guide bro but there is an error:In the quest ''Ghouls''(tenpenny tower) if u convince the people to let the ghouls in, the ghouls will kill anyone 2-3 days later , and you can't take the drops from them.The best way to end the quest Ghouls (tenpenny tower) is to let the ghouls enter from the door (in the generator room), because you will enter with the ghouls and you will take all the drops for the dead people, and PLUS IMPORTANT YOU CAN SHOP ANIWAY THINGS FROM THE GHOUL MICHAEL MASTERS 2-3 DAYS LATER, HE WILL SPAWN IN THE SHOP OF TENPENNY!!! PS:I RACCOMEND TO DO THIS QUEST AT THE END OF THE GAME, BECAUSE YOU NEED TENPENNY IN ANOTHER QUEST NAMED ''YOU GOTTA SHOT EM IN THE HEAD'', SO END THIS QUEST AND LATER LET THE GHOULS ENTER IN IN THIS OTHER QUEST FROM THE DOOR.

Im still watching, but I know for a fact that silver in springfield has more caps on her body if you kill her.

Only things I feel like you missed was the infinite minigun and ammo from the simulation and maybe how to get the 3 bottlecap mine schematics because they are super overpowered for a starter item. The tip that was intentionally left out due to difficulty at low lvls was getting the +10 dmg from the two perks in point lookout because its just 800 caps and a quest away which is excellent value. Still it was a nice guide and fun trip, gj.

Love the video bro. 2021 and I'm playing fallout 3.

What do you do with that extra point when setting your special skills?

perception intelligence luck the 3 most important skillz to boost IMHO

Love the video thanks for the tips!

Dude these videos were awesome. Your new Vegas one definitely blew my mind lol

Thank you me and this helped me very much but I couldn’t get the weapons from operation anchorage

Ah crap i saved megaton. Haven't played this for years. I remember blowing the place up last time

I always do anchorage first just to get the power armor. Does not deteriorate. Oh and the guards rifle too. It's pretty good

I’ve been following this guide…I’ve had to go back to old saves a few times and I’m about half way thru

I gotta question ehow do you get to places if ur so weak at what level do you start pumping points into small guns n stuff like that HELP NEED ANSWERS

this guy sounds so deppressed

My favorite thing to do in the area with the monument and the Lincoln memorial is to go to all the places where in real life I put a sticky note of Garfield (the cat).

I bought the GOTY edition on ps3 when it came out and shelf'd it and unintentionally forgot about it. I just started 3 days ago during these sucky coronavirus times.

0:31 you still had 1 point left to assign 😔

I've played this game so much along with New Vegas and FO4. s Starting to feel the need to play it again.

Also if you're in the reserve depot, you can open the locked door without any passwords. If you go to the right of the terminal at the locked door, go in 3rd person, crouch and spin the camera around, you can press the electrical switch on the other side of the wall if you line it up right.

I love the Megaton safehouse much more then Tenpenny suite, cause i like being good guy.

Did you know silver the girl you talk to to get 400 caps if you kill her she has another 100 caps after the speech challenge amongst other things just saying

Just started this game. 5 hours later I'm addicted. Thanks for the guide

Bro! I've played a ton of FO4 and NV but very little FO3. Been playing and just watched your vid. Those caches are literally good enough to carry someone thru the game. Thinking about making a commando type build and making a bee-line for the National Guard Depot and just using that gear for the rest of the game. Gonna role play like someone gave my dude a tip I can find some good gear there to help me on my quest to find dear old dad. And since naturally you're a bit desperate for gear when you first exit the vault, that's gonna sound real good to my wanderer. He grew up in a Gunner vault, naturally he's not gonna feel too comfortable til he's armed to the teeth.

Don't forget the bobblehead on your father's desk in the beginning.... ooops never mind 🤦‍♂️

After you get out of the vault you should go straight to rivet city to get the intelligence bobble head. Also taking swift learner is a bad idea because there will always be ways for you to get experience so you are wasting a perk, your better off getting intense training.

2023 .still playing and enjoying this game 🎮 🎉 Thanks for sharing 👍

I haven't played this game in 3 years the memories I made with this game were memorable

Okay. Time for the 2020 edition.

Not bad but you did miss out some important stuff in the begineng
