| @Acekiler Yes that is the Arlington Memorial Bridge. I do remember that part and even checked to see if the raiders and their gear would be their. Mainly to cause a battle between Liberty Prime/BOS and a couple of raiders.
@AshurForrester I forgot all about Oasis. That was really cool to see and I was so surprised when I saw it for the first time. Every time I went to Oasis and saw Harold I would get so sad knowing that he was stuck in that very spot for so long. I always kill him due to him wishing for it but I hear their is this other option to put Harold at peace with himself and Bob which I might have to try. Also it was really cool to see Harold come back from past Fallout games not made from Bethesda.
@c4in Yeah I love the Vaults and the backstory that comes with them. Though my personal favorite has Vault 108 with with all the Gary's. Funny but also possibly creepy depending on where and when you meet him. I also loved Operation Anchorage and the unique environment you could only find there. I also like how it gives you a look into how bad Anchorage actually was but it would seem that simulation was enhanced by Chase to glorify Anchorage. Still really cool environment and setting that I really enjoyed. |

| @DontKnow42 Yeah as I said before Oasis was a really cool and unique location with an envoirment and story that included the past Fallout games that Bethesda didn't make. The only other Vanilla location(s) that I know of that is like that would be Mount Charleston though Charleston has Pine trees and Oasis has oak, pine, and birch (I think). |

| New Reno.
I felt so out of my depth when I arrived there in Fallout 2. It seemed so huge and expansive, it had so much going on. Mobsters, boxing, drug dealers and porn stars. Trying to decide who to join was excruciating because I wanted to do it all and see it all. But that was also what made the area so memorable, you had to make some hard choices. _________________ |

| Going to have to go with Rivet City. One had to walk halfway across the map to get there, there were vendors for everything; not to mention the introduction to the Institute and the city's unique structure. It felt like a really unique place; not quite as unique as Oasis but unique nonetheless. |

| @Waffenbaum New Reno..... Fallout 2...... I have never played the old fallout games but maybe it's time to try them out. Seems like interesting games.
@roflcopter117 Personally I love Rivet City just due to the fact that it is an Air Craft Carrier. But also due to how awesome and Post apocalyptic it looks with the bow of the ship driven into the shore and ripped apart from the rest. I also enjoyed doing that Institute and Railroad quest as it was very interesting though in FO4 an Institute operation like that would of involved a Courser and if it did involve a human they would of been wearing their Hazmat suits to avoid Radiation exposure. Other then that I loved the characters, shops, and generally the setting of the ship and just how post apocalyptic it seems to live on a beached Air Craft Carrier. |

| Vault 87 from Fallout 3 was a very disturbing place and I was pretty jumpy during my first time there, I didn't know what to expect around every corner, plus the ambush surprised me too, wasn't expecting the capture at all, that whole experience was pretty memorable. |

| @Spazcakes Ah yes I was very spooked going into Vault 88 especially with no companions. I would get scared when I would crouch and turn the corner to be met with this tall huge Super Mutant. My most scary part was when I did the Emergency fire alarm unlock which I unknowingly caused every cell door to open. So when I walked out and turned the corner I was startled to see a Centaur wiping its tongue at me. Another thing that was really cool about the vault was the backstory and how only the science staff knew about the FEV and the normal members of the Vault did not. Then to their surprise were overrun and either killed or changed into those Abominations. Though when I found Fawkes and saw how he was trapped in their for so long I felt really bad for him and decided to give him a chance at a somewhat normal life. I think Fawkes and Uncle Leo would be a great fit as they see things very equally. Anyways I see Fawkes as one of my most memorable and favorable companions and also see Vault 88 as one of my most memorable but very spooky locations. Tough there is almost always something memorable and favorable about all decently made locations in Fallout. |

- @Visible Earth I don't know if you could really call it a failed experiment as the experiment was completed and the only real goal of this experiment was to gain data on what they would do and how they would react. After the experiment was completed via resisting the Vault Mainframe orders they were free to leave and do what they wanted with their life as the Vault no longer needed them. At least this is how I've understood it and don't know if this is completely right. But anyways for me it was also very interesting to investigate and explore Vault 11. I was at first unable to completely understand the story and was driven to find out the whole story. Though not one of my all time favorite locations it was a very interesting and intriguing location and definitely fun to explore the backstory and fate of the dwellers.
Failed in the sense that everyone was dead by the time they finally decided not to sacrifice someone. I guess I'm meaning it more in the sense that, they failed the test, but sure, I'm sure the information gathered was very useful to the Enclave somewhere. _________________ "It's 106 miles to Arroyo, we've got a full fusion cell, half a pack of RadAway, it's midnight, and I'm wearing a 50 year old Vault 13 jumpsuit.

| @c4in The vaults were always super interesting to explore and definitely a memorable area of any Fallout game. Do you have a particular vault that you favor over the rest that was the most fun to explore? _________________ This is War, Survival is Your Responsibility. |

| Hands down Lane of Tranquility in Fallout 3. Whenever I think of the game my mind mostly goes to this location. It is interesting in both it's look and lore. I also read an article (I don't remember where it was), about how the images and happenings within it, correlates with psychology. Specifically with the psyche of the Lone Wanderer. _________________ "I am not existing, nor am I lifeless." |

| @Visible Earth I see what you mean. The vault program was successful but the Vault dwellers were not.
@Grimmex my personal favorite Vault has to be hands down Vault 108. All the Gary's in there are great and hilarious especially when you have like 10 Gary's just saying "Gary" in different ways.
@MotionlessGhost that place was very interesting. I would of liked to been able to pull out Dr. Braun with your father and talk to him for the answers, then either kill him or lock him back up. Though since he was in there either before or shortly after the bombs dropped he would probably die due to him being on some sort of life support to keep him alive. Way off topic but I usually get off topic. Anyways Tranquility lane was really fun when I had to murder people and then kill them all. But the Chinese Liberation thing was really enjoyable as it actually kills the Vault residents when they die due to cardiac arrest leaving Bruan alone in his own little hell forever. |

| Hidden Valley Bunker in NV
Purely because I'm a huge fan of the BoS but played NV for months before I realised they were actually in it, so when I discovered it I was so excited _________________ - My YouTube - |

| @Lucianhector I remember finding the BOS early on in the game. Was I ever surprised to find them taking me prisoner and making me do their dirty work. But it was really interesting to encounter them and see how policies and ruleshange through chapters. Hidden Valley was also a very interesting location though it would appear that the majority of the bunker has caved in or been sealed. |

| @MrEggs0925 I love that vault, the Gary thing is definitely creepy. I enjoyed Vault 11, the one where they had to sacrifice someone every year and if they didn't the life support would supposedly shut down when in reality the vault would just open. _________________ This is War, Survival is Your Responsibility. |

| Vault 11 was very interesting for me because the program was successful but the dwellers were not. This is true because the dwellers passed the experiment and the info was gathered. But the dwellers all committed suicide. Also you can tell through pre-recorded messages that originally the Overseer was not to be this hated individual but ended up becoming that. very interesting and unique from almost any other normal vault.
But personally during my first time exploring the vault I was confused but also intrigued about what was going on in there. Once I was at the overseer office and raised the desk I was surprised to see this pristine hallway. I got really spooked when the PA was like walk to the light. Then once the video ended and I was ready to go back to exploring the walls just disappeared and I got mowed down immediately.
In conclusion Vault 11 was a very interesting location with a sort of basic story made interesting, intriguing, and for me personally also a little confusing at least during the beginning. |

My favourite would be Vault 106, the one which is filled with psychoactive drugs. I like all kind of obscure stuff, so I find it entertaining to explore that certain vault since you see all those hallucinations of your past. |

| I think the whole metro area in Fallout 3 was such a good mix of spooky, atmospheric and exploitative. Going in there in the early game made it feel like the whole wasteland was connected, and I really like the idea of needing to sneak your way through a dark, ghoul infested set of abandoned, crumbling metro stations to get to where you need to go. Bethesda really did them well in my opinion, even dotting them here and here with survivalists that can sell you stuff and give you their stories @"MrEggs0925" Vault 11 is my favorite Vault! Usually when I'm exploring the wasteland normally I let my mind wander and I end up missing things, but I always concentrate on what I'm doing when I start to explore a vault. Figuring out the secrets of Vault 11 and figuring out how the whole system/story worked was defiantly one of my top 10 Fallout moments. The propaganda posters on the walls were such a nice touch as well! |
