Something I thought of regarding the My Tenpenny Tower Suite

Post » Fri May 13, 2011 3:49 pm

This is probably a random unimportant topic I'm making, but I thought it was a cool idea and some people might find it interesting.

I perfer the Tenpenny Tower Suite to the Megaton House because it seems more fitting for evil characters who only care about money and it gives you themes with cooler decorations. However one of the things I didn't like originally was that the suite didn't have a fridge for storing food the way the house in Megaton did, so I thought there was no real way of keeping your food and drinks fresh. However my friend pointed out to me that you can store items in the Nuka Cola Machine when you buy it, and since it's a working vending machine that turns nuka cola ice cold it gave me the idea that you could store food and drinks in there and pretend that the machine keeps them nice and cool so that they don't rot.

What do you guys think? That's a really interesting way to roleplay how your character stores his or her food huh?

Tenpenny Tower Suite is nice and certainly better than Megaton shack but I felt awful when I had to destroy the whole Megaton just to get it, not only did destroying it impoverished the game itself but such act was a steep price to pay for a nicer apartment.

This dichotomy was just a bad lazy design.

You could easily have had an option to just kill the owners of Tenpenny and become the new owner and payed the security and shopkeepers to stay(and as an owner kick out tenants you didn't like and bring in tenants you did like from other parts of the world).

This would neutralize the fact that money becomes quickly irrelevant in Fallout 3 by paying a high price for ownership and security guards in mid-game, so basically, Megaton would have been an entry apartment and Tenpenny would be an achievement for all the work you did in accumulating money later on.

See, isn't that better than what we got?

Fallout 3 is full of such bad lazy design decisions.

There's one thing I don't under, how do you keep food that's been rotting for 200 years fresh?

You're talking about the pre-war food, and that's not the only type of food in the game you know. There's also meat from various mutated wasteland critters and animals that have survived the war like mirelurk and dogs, and there's fruit that comes from mutated plants like the mutfruit and punga fruit. So I'm pretty sure all that food is still fresh and can easily be stored in cool containers like fridges and vending machines.
