Fallout 3 Re-Animated, for example, takes the default game animations and adapts them to allow characters and NPCs to move more naturally. Additionally, there are several mods that improve upon some of Fallout's basic mechanics. Thankfully, with the installation of just a few mods - predominantly the Unofficial Fallout 3 Patch and the Fallout Stutter Remover - most of these issues disappear and the game runs beautifully. Repair and RebuildDespite all the critical acclaim it received, FO3 suffered - and still does - from a bunch of quirky bugs and weird glitches that could, at their worst, render the game almost unplayable. Here's a brief overview of how to get your own modded version of FO3 up and running for the next time you want to dive into Bethesda's take on post-apocalyptic DC. Thankfully, the modding community has come to our rescue once again, and while it may not be as beautiful as Skyrim, there are tons of visual updates and gameplay tweaks that make replaying Fallout 3 as satisfying as any of its current-generation counterparts. That said, the game was released back in 2008, so it understandably looks and feels a bit dated.
From its massive and detailed world to its extensive cast of characters, it's never a bad idea to revisit the Wasteland.
Fallout 3 is a great game - there's no denying that.
