Fallout 3 Walkthrough

Welcome to the Walkthrough section of our guide. Here, you will find information on getting through Fallout 3's main quest, from your time as a child in Vault 101 to the game's ultimate conclusion far, far away from your early environs. The walkthrough itself is self-explanatory -- simply use the links below to head to the part of the walkthrough you need (the items below are listed in sequential order).

Each section will have the in-game name of the quest or quest part you're on. The two lists follow the name of the quest will explain the steps that must be taken to get through the quest successfully, as well as the items, equipment and other gear that will be found en route (under the all-encompassing moniker of "items"). Two screens accompany each paragraph of text. Please keep in mind that the items we list, both in our items list and in the walkthrough itself, will not necessarily reflect what you find! We created these list and mention the items as we acquire them to give you a general idea of what you can expect to find in any given locale. It won't always be accurate! Additionally, if an M appears in parenthesis next to an item in the item list, it means that you can find "many" of those items, so listing the exact number is hard to do.

And now, without further ado... our walkthrough.

* - The "Rescue From Paradise" quest is a mandatory quest only if the mayor of Little Lamplight refuses to let you in to the settlement. If you can't convince him to let you in, you have to undertake the Rescue From Paradise quest in order to rescue members of the settlement to convince the mayor you're trustworthy. If you're let in right off the bat through you power of persuasion, however, than Rescue From Paradise becomes an optional side quest.
