Gotta go with Underworld, it had a neat design and wasn't too hard to get around in. I especially love the holding pens for the radioactive feral ghouls.

This may sound silly, but my first time exploring the inner DC ruins (Takoma, L'Enfant PLaza, Seward Square etc...) was such an achingly beautiful, lonely, haunting experience for me that it almost felt spiritual.

Now THAT is immersion.

The Dunwich building. It's so peaceful there.
That the one where you find the tapes chronicling the demise of the dude as he turns into a ghoul? That's my favorite too. Not to mention the freaky chanting.

Tranquility lane had the most impact on me, personally. Revisiting Vault 101 was also...interesting

The Pitt.

Just the whole atmosphere, it's so damn wonderful. And then the Raiders wearing Iconoclast armour, the Auto-Axe, it's fantastic.
It's a pitty it freezes up so much, though.
So dirty and dark, you can almost smell the soot and steel as you climb up the steelyard tower for that amazing panoramic view.

Nice cheezy pun by the way, I agree technically it's a pice of pitt.

I can't rightly say stranger, but I can tell you this. I've been on a quest to find the loneliest, most desolate place in fallout 3. The kind of place where if your character just sat down and put a bullet in his brain, nobody would ever find them. I think it's the weapons cache in hamilton's hideaway.
There are a lot of utterly desolate, rocky areas in the north west that no-one really goes to.

Somewhere between Fort Constantine and Raven Rock, find a little alcove between some rocks and there's your perefct suicide spot.

Not even the radscorpions bother with most of that area.

The small city outside Point lookout, just next to the motel, and the motel itself ofc. It filled me with a mood that was brainwashing me in a may i have never felt before.

I like Arefu. It's like a little safe-haven on a bridge (ignoring the Family of Blood, of course :p).

The Throne of the Cockroach King.

Sometimes I go there just to sit upon his chair and gaze at the cess-pool that once held his reign.

The Pitt. Partly because it was my favorite of all the DLCs.

I do like the Spaceship, though; the one you can go inside, Mothership Zeta.

I'm going to have to go with Adams Air Force base simply because of the epic battles that took place there. It was fun as hell to traverse.

I haven't visited all the locations yet because of time constraints, but so far I'd have to say that the anchorage sim is my favorite. I thought the missions were fun and the environment was great, a nice change of pace from the dreary, post-apocalyptic wasteland.

also i like saying "anchorage"... 'cause sometimes it sounds like "anchor rage" xD

Andale. Such friendly folks out there.
Agreed. Always ready for a nice chat and a slice of something nice. Ah, it's as if I can smell the lovely hot meat pies through the speakers.

I love all the little random spots that you find scattered around that tell little stories about the people before and after the bombing, like burnt skeletons lying on a bed, or that house in DC with the robot you can give jobs to, like tell the (quite deceased) children a lovely bedtime poem. It's the little things like that where I can let my imagination make up the stories of the people before they died that really make it a joy.
There will come soft rains and the smell of the ground,
And swallows circling with their shimmering sound;

And frogs in the pool singing at night,
And wild plum trees in tremulous white;

Robins will wear their feathery fire,
Whistling their whims on a low fence-wire;

And not one will know of the war, not one
Will care at last when it is done.

Not one would mind, neither bird nor tree,
If mankind perished utterly;

And Spring herself when she woke at dawn
Would scarcely know that we were gone.

any way, I liked most of the city. I would clear out buildings and just sit there, staring at the destroyed metropolis for hours. It's kind of depressing, but it gives you the scope of what humans will go to, just to survive.
