    A few corrections I need to make:
    - BoS Outcasts weren't added by the operation anchorage DLC, and were in the base game. Got mixed up in my research and forgot this fact lol, so disregard my statements saying they were added as a response to criticism to 3's Brotherhood. Ill try to remove that part from the video.
    - When I combine all these videos into one, Ill be sure to go over the Broken Steel side content, as for this video I stuck only to the main questline
    - Ill also give more expanded thoughts on the Pitt's choices and reasonings, a few commenters brought up some info I missed, so ill talk about those too

      Another correction is Broken Steel absolutely does start even if you use Fawkes to start the Purifier.
      I can't remember if maybe this wasn't a thing when it first came out and was patched but I just did a playthrough of FO3 this past week, had Fawkes start it and went right into Broken Steel.

    The Outcasts not having a pip boy isn't a plot hole, there is actually a dead gary in the bunker, with a lobbed off arm. They definitely tried getting a working pip boy, but it apparently doesn't work if you steal it.

And then the one time they do anything, it's because someone else might control the biggest resource in the region.

    I just wanna say the Steelyard quest for The Pitt has some of the best rewards in the game. You get good armor sets, a suppressed AR, a lazer shotgun thats better than the tri beam, and an auto axe with a unique effect. For anyone thinking about skipping it, the rewards are insanely valuable, especially for an energy weapons user.

    I appreciate anyone covering Fallout 3 in 2023 but there were some mistakes.
    -The Brotherhood Outcasts were not added by Operation Anchorage, they're in the basegame in several places along with multiple patrols.
    -Broken Steel doesn't just add an "endgame combat gauntlet", it also adds quite a lot of quests around the wasteland based on the new Aqua Pura distribution.
    -You only mentioned the Winterized T51-b despite the fact you get the Chinese Stealth Armor at the end of Anchorage, which is the best armor in the entire game for sneaky builds.
    -The slaves in The Pitt aren't freed if they win in the arena, they're just allowed to become residents in the upper area. Most still address you as a slave.
    -The Infiltrator isn't a 'weaker Chinese Assault Rifle', it's a silenced automatic weapon and one of the only silenced weapons available in Fallout 3.
    -The NPCs you can release in the Mothership Zeta DLC are Elliot's former companions, not just random soldiers. He has dialogue for it.

    • @sciarpecyril
      @sciarpecyril Год назад +16

      Infiltrator also has unique version named Perforator which is given to the player by the Everett for turning over 90 steel ingots. Perforator provides higher damage, critical damage and accuracy at a cost of lower rate of fire and durability. Pretty good for stealth builds, especially in combination with Chinese stealth armour.

You have two radiation immune companions (both of which are the best in terms of gameplay, so a player would be more tempted to use them) and nobody thought "Hey, what do we do with these guys?" You don't even need to think too much of an excuse, just have them hold off the enemy or something.

You're fired!
      In truth a lot of the people who worked at BGS even said in interviews that Todd basically only let his buddies have his seats and his highschool buddies could do anything and they wouldn't get yelled at, whereas they had to beg Todd or Emil about other things and because Todd didn't come up with a good idea first, the petty little twat fired the guy, then immediately turned around and said "yo check out this great idea I had!"

    Anchorage saved the game for me during my first playthrough. I got F3 near launch and wasn't able to get into it due to the immense difficulty as someone who had never played an RPG like Fallout and had no idea how to optimize their play. I'd gotten to the Mall and ended up quitting for several months after being completely outmatched by the super mutants with no ammo and no health items.
    I came back after seeing two DLC's advertised on the Xbox Live marketplace: Operation Anchorage, and The Pitt. I chose to get Anchorage, and am glad I did - the separation from the wasteland and massive weapon/armor boon received after completing it, not to mention all of the experience and leveling from getting through the DLC, reinvigorated my interest and made me become a fan of the game. Every subsequent playthrough of F3 for me has been starting Int 9, bee-lining for Rivet City to get the Int bobblehead, and immediately jumping into Anchorage.

    You're opinion on The Pitt's morally gray story is wrong. Ashur is a lot better than you claim. If you side with him you can talk to him more afterwards (which you complained about not being able to) and he says the only reason the slavery is going on, is due to low manpower that's constantly getting weakened more due to the virus, if you side with him, the cure makes it so that slavery isn't even necessary anymore. Also Werhner doesn't care about the slaves at all, you can speech check him to get him to leave peacefully, while siding with Ashur and he says pretty much "f the slaves, f this city, I'm out of here", he's only in it for power. Midea also feels guilty about kidnapping the kid and can be talked out peacefully. just because it's not spelled out for you by an ending slide doesn't make it as bad as you claim. Also Ashur has a full, thought out plan for the Pitt, Wernher doesn't.

    • @YouWinAFREEiPOD
      @YouWinAFREEiPOD Год назад

      But literally why do you need a cure if nobody is trapped or forced to actively live in the city poisoning them anymore?
      My reading of the situation is that it's not exactly clear why the slaves themselves would possibly have the same vision to motivate them whatsoever into so passionately continuing to get back to work in a place killing them, a place so dangerous that its prohibitively impossible to have families or so isolated to make conducting trade and contact with the outside world wildly inconvenient at best. Its very strange because after the quest is done I would presume that post-Ashur the more obvious solution would be to leave Pittsburgh altogether.
      They never allude to this during the conflict itself but if the slaves truly were similarly entranced by the potential of the steel mills they could simply devise a way to return from the safety of the city limits rather than keep up a settlement in the safety equivalent of the inside of an active volcano. They could probably at worst continue using the city as a source for prospecting. The idea of there being any kind of urgent crisis needing resolved is totally artificial and self-caused at that point.

      I think that that's forgivable at least since anyone can make a RUclips video claiming something based off of their opinions and mistaken memory, but it doesn't mean that it's always true or that it makes them a voice of authority on the subject matter. But that still is okay since it doesn't terribly detract from the video's purpose of sharing what made these outings special.
      It could have been a detail worth double checking when putting so much work into publishing the video, but I appreciate it would be difficult to remember the underused role of the Outcasts pre-installation of DLC for a game that was released so long ago.

      Fuck ashur and fuck anyone who uses slavery, especially if they try to justify it with some abstract lofty goal bullshit. If Wernher doesn’t change the system then I’ll kill him too. At least people can LEAVE the toxic city when they’re not slaves anymore. The whole "Wernher is actually evil!" was just added to make the decision seem morally gray but slavery isn’t morally gray. Slavers get the boomstick.

    • @mewacyboi
      @mewacyboi 7 месяцев назад +3

      It’s a lot worse than that. Wernher isn’t forcing anyone to stay and labor (for now) but he absolutely doesn’t care about the potential cure after it’s out of ashur’s hands. The “promise” of a cure in development is enough to keep the former slaves in place despite having the freedom to leave their hellholl before the only bride out eventually collapses.
      Ashur’s promised cure isn’t guaranteed to pan out either, so if it turns out his daughter’s immunity can’t actually be replicated or shared then the decades of slavery are all for nothing. (Plus you know the 50+ raiders under his command absolutely aren’t going to give up the position they have over the slaves, inevitably leading to a bloody power struggle)
      Wonder how many generations of Pitt people it will take for them to realize the only cure for radioactive iron-smog is to FUCKING LEAVE THE SHITHOLE

    If you don't mind exploiting the game, OP Anchorage should be your top priority after leaving the vault.
    If you look around the simulation facility, you can find a dead guy named Gary in a room. You drag his body to the simulation pod, prop it up in the end of the pod a particular way, and start the simulation.
    Fun fact about the ammo in the simulation, you can only have so much on your person at once. This little barrier can be bypassed by dropping all your ammo before requisitioning more. So what you gotta do is requisition ammo, drop that ammo, requisition more, and repeat until you're satisfied. Be sure you've collected all the weapons available to you as well.
    Finish the simulation, and as the screen turns white, start spamming tf out of your interact button. If you placed Gary's body in the right spot before starting the simulation, you can access his inventory before all that simulation gear and ammo is stripped from your own inventory. This will allow you to make off with the simulation weapons and all that ammo you hoarded up earlier. Special trait about those simulation weapons, they don't break.
    So if you've done it right, you finish the OP Anchorage DLC with a myriad of unbreakable weapons, all the ammo you had the patience to hoard, and a nigh unbreakable set of T-51b power armor. Needless to say, this exploit trivializes the rest of the game.

    One of my favorite "The Enclave aren't just stupid bad guys" is in Fallout 2 when you have to steal vertibird plans for a couple of factions. (you can basically choose for who you want to do the quest)
    One way to get the plans is to just walk up to the gas station and convince the guy there that you're a new recruit, he gives you a password and you can walk into the base. The soldiers inside even tell you to get power armor from the armory. There is actual conversation with the Enclave members that goes beyond combat barks. They are shown as real people.

    Operation anchorage is a huge chore , but there's an exploit glitch in there where you can get approx 10 weapons that never deteriorate that includes : Gauss Rifle , Jingwei shock sword , 10 mm,, silenced 10mm, assault rifle , mini gun , sniper rifle , combat shotgun, rocket launcher , also 10's of thousands of rounds for all weapons.. I've done it and it works. There's a video that shows you step by step, but briefly,, the first step is there's a Gary clone corpse in a room that you have to carry and place on the chair of the simulator, in a certain position. Last step is as you exit the simulation press the search button at the same time you're logging out of the simulator and transfer all your inventory in the Gary clone corpse, that DlC sucks , but you get sooo much stuff. And that stealth suit you get is better than the winterized power armor in my humble opinion

    I'd say a good excuse for the reason the Enclave hasn't used the Orbital strike in the past is just that the thing needs to be passing the area you are aiming for pretty closely which is why its not used before as the Liberty Prime robot must've been out of its range at the time but When it was in range they took the shot. Same reason they don't hit the Pentagon as they aren't in range until the final battle.

    My guess to why you lose Karma for killing the Alien workers is because they aren’t of the same species and are probably supposed to be a different species of alien but they probably didn’t have time to make a new model so settled with using existing Alien models. Or the simpler one, not all aliens are evil and are probably ruled over by some overlord of sorts, and if aliens don’t obey under this rule are either enslaved to work against their will or killed. Since if all aliens were outright evil, it wouldn’t make sense to lose Karma when killing one’s that don’t attack back and flee from you, especially when the idea is that all aliens are “supposed” to be evil.
