It's another way of saying "Fuck You" to the player.

There are no fun secrets in this game that are not annoyingly hard to find. You cannot find an area that is well fun at all come to think of it.

Nothing will beat the finding the Sierra Army Depo after having had the game for over a year and not knowing about it. Fallout 3 is shit and taking clothes from people is stupid.

Yeah that pissed me the fuck off. I was so stoked I found the Brotherhood. I remember finding the bunker for the first time in FO1 and I almost shit myself in excitement to learn about this batshit insane faction of technogeeks living in the middle of the wasteland, trying desperately to stave off the inevitable decline of technology by hoarding it all in a secure place rather than letting the dredges of society squander it away and leave the rest of the world stranded in the far future with the most advanced gadget being a pickaxe. So they send me to die in a heavily radiated crater.

In Fallout 3 they just look at me, repeat the same three lines of text, and the door just doesn't open because "Dad wouldn't like it."

As I recall, the only thing I couldn't figure out in the game was how to get to the door on the other half of the aircraft carrier. Also, the beams and shit that would have made up the support for the flight deck, on the ruptured side, 90% of the shit doesn't actually exist as anything but a visual. Running onto it involves falling several hundred feet down. One day I'll play it again so I can write a review. But that requires playing it again. So maybe not for a long time. Or, you know, ever.

It just summarizes the situation so well.

Pretty much my problem.

Perhaps we'll play some other FPS
