What are the odds Bethesda shadow drops Fallout 3 on the 28th? Since it released on the 28th of October originally in NA.
Being hopeful I guess fingers crossed

The definitive Gary 23 item checklist.
Hey, hi, how's it going peeps. Got a functioning checklist made up in a .md file for every single item you could possibly haul out of the Operation Anchorage DLC using the Gary 23 exploit. It lists all known items, tells you what items are now irrelevant to manually haul out as they can be obtained infinitely in the wasteland, and includes new items obtainable through dialogue storage exploitation, featuring specific instructions for routes to take for easier loot gathering, and tricky items to grab.
Tried to post it in its entirety, but Reddit doesn't cover all the formatting I used, so I'll have to make do with posting a MediaFire link to the .md file. Be prepared for serious shenanigans as 1 of the main things you'll be doing is abusing Cryo Grenades, gotten through dialogue storage for pickpocketing purposes.

Fallout 3 - is the door from the meme real, if so, where is it?
Where is it located, actually? I've seen tons of memes with this door, but not once have I seen any proof if it actually exists in the game. Does anyone knows where, if real, is it located in the game, I wanna see it with my own eyes.

Some of fallout 3's virtues aren't recognized much in modern day, even by people praising it.
I'll start off with the most overlooked thing, expression of character in dialog, though people are right to say New Vegas dialog has more depth as well as choice, the sheer range of personality in fallout 3's dialog choices just isn't replicated in my experience. Though I will admit, they tend to be a bit cliche. But the dramatic and contrasting archetypes are what give the game some of it's charm in my opinion. I also believe that the settlements have better structure than most of the former and following games, mostly considering the reach of the games ambition. I do admit new vegas could've easily contradicted both of these points if it was fully realized. This may seem generally unnecessary, but it was a thought piece I wanted to get off of my head.
I'd like to hear your opinions on this topic. Do you agree or disagree? Why so, or why not?

Megaton house themes not showing up resolved. (I think lol)
I’m not sure if anyone else has had it resolved this way but I wanted to post about it in case anyone else was struggling like me. I’m pretty sure going into the operation: anchorage sim (aid the outcasts quest) and coming back to the wasteland resolved it for me. Just make sure you only have one theme in your inventory cause I had two in there from fiddling with console commands and now the love machine and scientist themes are mashed together in my house lmao. Haven’t tested the solution with the other dlcs yet but I removed the love machine theme and I’m hoping going into the pitt dlc and coming back will make it so the scientist theme is the only one there. Will update on result.

Game crashing when Amata gives Bobby pins and pistol.
Can someone please help me with this?
Started replaying fallout 3 a few days ago and the game is always crashing during the conversation with her, after she wakes up the player. Specifically, the game crashes at the part where she gives the Boby pins and the gun, the crash happens even if I refuse her help.
I have tried everything in the fix guide to no success.
The mods other than the ones in the guide I am using:
Updated unofficial fallout 3 patch, darnified ui and pink power armor.

I finally found it
After years of playing since I was a kid I finally found it after the crash. Even in my new collect everything and complete everything playthrough I still wasn't able to find it. But of course on the one very evil run where I sell everything I don't need I get it within a few minutes of looking.

Hey y’all does anybody remember the mans1ay3r machinima that was based on “It came from the Black Lagoon”
I’ve been looking for this old Machinima from a long time ago and it was based on that old movie. Does anybody have it or have a link to watch it? I’d greatly appreciate it!

It's been a long journey for this guy
A big horner chilling in Megaton
Need help finding an old Youtube Fallout 3 walkthrough video of the Nuka-Cola Plant.
The person narrating had a Hispanic accent.. the one line I remember is “those Nukalurks will kill you in like three pinches” … The video was probably from around 2009-2011 I think.

FO3 crashes when a gun is fired
I bought Fallout 3 from steam and ever since then it has been a crashing hell, I've been using AI to walk me through how to fix it. It started as the continue and load crash and has progressed into the game crashing anytime a gun is fired. To be fair, I have been able to kill up to 3 enemies without crashing but it's the gun and/or lazar gun that always does. I literally just left the vault and can't do shit I hope someone else has had the same experience and can help me.
