I think the ending was sad in two ways (edited due to end of game spoilers - BSD)

but overall it was a great game, the AI wasnt perfect (and annoying sometimes) and I hate those kids in lamplight cavern.

btw. i wonder if uncle joe has to do with a quest or something?

Having started playing again after a fairly long break from the game, I have a few notes.

1. I am enjoying the hell out of the atmosphere. From the dusty wasteland, to the gloom laden interiors of crumbling buildings, and the utter darkness of The Metro, the atmosphere is just on point in Fallout3. Fallout4 may have better graphics and some interesting mechanics, but it doesn’t have as much to offer in the atmosphere department, IMO. I had forgotten just how much that impacts my playthroughs.

2. Weapon/armor/clothing degradation is just too rapid for my taste. Not a problem if you are playing on pc because you can mod this to be slower or nonexistent. I definitely think removing it was a good move in Fallout4, though honestly, I wouldn’t mind it being a thing if it were slower. I just went from Megaton to The Mall running the first leg of “Following in his Footsteps� and “Galaxy News Radio�, and man, continuously having to repair my gear annoyed me a bit. I’m not sure if a character that didn’t have a decent skill level of repair would even be viable in Fallout3. Sure, you can pay people to repair stuff, but that would burn through early game caps pretty quickly.

3. I remember the Metro being a lot worse than it is. I actually enjoyed wandering around down there this time around. Poking around in nooks and crannies and finding Chinese assault rifles and such is pretty satisfying.
