Unfortunately for Bethesda, something that is all too common in their video games is that they are full of unintentional errors that cause certain characters to show behavior that was not expected or somewhat implausible situations to occur. That’s what a Fallout 3 player recently experienced. has managed to break the game completelyalthough not intentionally.
The user in question, called Red_Machina, wanted to share this anecdote in a publication on Reddit in which he commented that he has been able to escape from Vault 101 when he was just a child. In principle, something like this is not supposed to be possible, but at some point the game suffered a glitch that allowed him to escape from the place and start living the adventure at such a young age.
All this happens in the first moments of the plot, when the birthday party is being celebrated, which makes it clear why his character is wearing a festive hat on his head. As he has commented, it is in this sequence when there is a door near Andy’s balcony that leads to the outskirts of the shelter, so an NPC passed by there and left it open instead of closing it with a padlock.
He himself has stated that It was an artificial intelligence error, because the NPCs wandering around the area are the only ones capable of opening these locked doors that are not supposed to be opened by players. That is why this situation seemed so strange to him, since one of the characters did not close the door, allowing this player to escape through it perfectly, breaking the game instantly.
Furthermore, to give it a different and even more sinister touch, he has admitted that in his previous game he always tried to do things well to get good karma, but this time it will be the opposite, which is why he decided turn the child into a cannibal without any kind of qualms. The only drawback he has encountered is that he has not been able to use a machine on Megaton that is essential to progress in the main story.
The reason is because the game is not programmed so that children are able to perform certain actions, this being one of them, so they had no choice but to use a mod to continue ahead. Of course, as a baby and as an adult there is no problem, since Fallout 3 Treat the former as if they were miniature adults.
