Getting back to other older games I still have yet to finish, I resumed playing Fallout 3 tonight. I hadn’t really gotten very far before, but today I managed to explore a bit further and ran across two more towns, Big Town and Arefu, where some besieged survivors have been holed up and tasked me with helping them out, of course.

Getting around has been rather dangerous since I went with a high-INT/CHA character who’s not so good at the whole fighting thing, and I died a few times to relatively weak monsters, but at least once you’ve reached a marked place you can fast travel to and from it without having to risk traversing the wasteland again. I also ran across a couple of super mutants north of Big Town, one of whom had a rocket launcher. I’m not quite ready for them yet…

I found one of the bandit settlements harassing the towns in a cave, took out a few of them, and saved for the night while still in there. There’s a few radscorpions I still have to kill, and I’m running a bit low on ammo…
