I'm still finding ammo a knob to find and I look everywhere.

Currently carrying round a scoped magnum,chinese assault rifle, hunting rifle, combat shotgun and sniper rifle and never seem to have enough ammo. I don't really like the assault rifle but the ammo is necessary. Even took that perk where it means you find extra ammo.




I think Fallout's biggest achievement is avoiding the cookie cutter characters Oblivion had. The characters often seem very real and force you to make moral decisions.
In the cannibal/inbred town quest I was genuinely stumped as to the right course of action:
On the one hand, these people are just trying to feed their kids. Many people would do the same thing rather than see their children starve.
On the other, they are killing innocent people.
I was confused as to what to do. Paused my game, sat down in the sitting room and worked it out in my head. Eventually decided that too many people would die and killed the adults/
I then had to feel guilty as the kids and old man would probabaly starve given that they lived in the middle of nowhere with only a geriatric to care for them. I felt so bad, I left a shotgun and some cartridges on the floor.

For me, that is why this is such a great game. You actually care about some polygons. God help me if they were eating raiders rather than wastelanders in the basement, then I'd probably still be trying to figure it out.
