What did you learn about yourself from playing FO3?

What did you learn about yourself from playing FO3? I know it's an RPG, but we always take ourselves into the game.

So, serious and not so serious, good things and bad. Did you like what you saw?

I'll start the ball rolling with a couple of things that I picked up about myself.

1. I enjoy being the good guy far more than being the bad buy (I didn't think I would!). I just couldn't get down with selling little kids into slavery and being responsible for genocide.

2. I may have substance "issues", judging by how many times I got addicted.

3. I do really believe that dying an honourable death young is better than living a long wasted life.

4. Pretty girls have a lot of leeway, even if they're completely crazy.

5. I don't want to join up with any large organisation (BoS or Enclave or anyone else). I'm a free spirit, man!

6. I'm a cat person, but Dogmeat may have turned me...

How about you?

RPG can mean many things really. It can mean that you put yourself in the shoes of someone else. It doesn′t have to be all about your character living his own life and you only manage the controls.

I play a role I call mirocu (yes, that′s my name in Fallout 3 as well) and in the wastelands I′m a good guy through and through. I help nice people when I can and I feel they deserve it. No wonder I got the Talon after me so soon :P
I like to explore alone. Companions can be nice but they are mostly in the way. I collect whatever stuff I find collectable and only do quests I find enjoyable.

All in all I′m doing what I do in most games :)
