I didn't know how/what tag skills did.. so I picked some random crap like, ooh gambling! and doctor..hell I didn't even know what the stat points did. Take into account I was 10 and this was the first RPG I ever played.

Yeah it worked until I got to a random encounter where I had to fight.


In FOT I didn't know how to get a person out from under a car so I had to OD Rebecca with drugs =]

I tried passing my game on to a friend at work, and he said when he tried to install it, it crashed his computer, and he got pissed at me. The game was made in '97, how shitty of computer could he have?

I've saved AFTER unsuccessfully stealing from them (My finger slipped... Or my brain), so because of that, in FO2, I had to kill the entire Courtyard population of Vault City with a Hunting Rifle, Metal Armour and Vic backing me up with a shotgun, and I can't pass the Mordino casino without getting shot at. Tommy Gun bullets hurt.
"When conversing about oligarchy, you must consider this point: Many children are taught from an early age that monarchies are primarily benevolent, and are given very little to discourage this opinion until at least adolesence. Even more prevalent are stories about the supposed benevolence of heirs to the throne, symbolising a cycle which they are taught is good."

Well, everytime my car got stolen in New Reno, I would murder T-Ray and his troupe without twitching, until I realised they could get me the upgrades I needed.

I'd have to say i'm experiencing mine at the moment, around mid game Dogmeat is propagating himself and everytime I zone there are about ten of him around. This wasn't a problem until I entered Necropolis and now whenever I go into the sewers the game ultimately freezes if I enter combat because it has to cycle through the turns or 30 or so scattered Dogs. Can't kill the thing(s) either. Anyone have any idea what is up with this?

You are aware you have to finish the game before T-ray upgrades your car.

Yeah, I think there was some bug if you wanted the upgrade before you've finished the game. You might not want to leave the car in New Reno or it'll get stolen. I never patched the game, so I'm not 100% sure if the bug was fixed in the patch. Probably not.

Ah well, patched up and started a new game, now I have a Bigger much more irritating problem. When using repair or even the terminal it will say the force fields are going down in the military base but no such luck, I can't get anywhere In here and as a result cannot beat the game. So in conclusion I suppose my dumbest fallout moment was playing it eight years after the fact.
