About This Content

You may have dealt the Enclave a serious blow at Project Purity, but their forces are still out there, and still pose a grave threat to the people and security of the Capital Wasteland. In Broken Steel, you’ll continue your current Fallout 3 character past the events of Project Purity, and work with the Brotherhood of Steel to eradicate the Enclave threat once and for all. You’ll travel to new locations like the Olney Powerworks, wield destructive new weapons like the Tesla Cannon, fight powerful new creatures like the Super Mutant Overlord, marvel at the destructive power of Liberty Prime, earn new Perks like the devastating Nuclear Anomaly… and play Fallout 3 all the way to level 30!

I got this for free, a friend of mine bought it for me.
Im kinda sad for him.
Spent the DLC doing pretty much nothing.
Liberty prime was just killing people for me.
At one point I remember opening my phone to play some games when liberty prime got shot by an orbital laser,
''Oh cool, I can play the game now'' I think bethesda thought I'd be sad until I started t-bagging L.P's head
I was happy enough to forget about the whole ''We pulled an orbital laser out of our asses'' but then around a million brotherhood soldiers came behind me and killed pretty much everything.
I got to play the game for a while but it got me to realise: Nobody in this game gives a crap about me.
I spent the entire game being the side character to my dad and the doctor
It was like skyrim, nobody knew who I was.
Atleast in skyrim I was actually a hero. This whole game was an escort mission where I was the escort
Everytime I ask myself ''Should I download fallout 3 again'' I remember that time when a million brotherhood soldiers opened fire to the enemy when I was in the middle, not giving a ♥♥♥♥ if I die or not. And the worst part is, I agree.
Some people may like it, I can't blame them, you can't account for taste but I can't really recommend this DLC or this game. I would've recommened the game if it didn't force me to go through my entire computer to find a save file I did before entering the last mission.

It un♥♥♥♥♥ifies Fallout 3's ending somewhat. And it has a giant tank base. That's gotta count for something.

This DLC is almost essential since it removes the game's anti-climatic ending and allows you to continue playing after the ending.

***SPOILER***
Lets you continue the game when you "die" at the end of the story. Oh and you get blow things up, go to a military base, say good-bye to Liberty-Prime, finish all the side quests you left behind, includes even more side quests, and you get to see how the world has changed thanks to the pure water.

A great addition to an already great game. It is basically required because it's the only way to continue your save.
