Alright, so when I played fallout 3 it wasn't too bad, I liked it fine and replayed it here and there, same with new vegas. When I came here though I noticed most people didn't really like fallout 3. I didn't really get that many answers why, mostly stuff like: "why is moira alive after a nuke?", "lol, why is there a quest to blow up a town?", "the beginning is dog shit!","super mutants are retards now, wtf", "the main quest is a joke", etc...

So, I don't suppose anyone wants to discuss this further? Like how/why the guy is wrong, or how/why he's right?
