For me it's killing animals, I try to avoid them as much as possible until lvl 10.

Too bad I have to kill the dogs near the washington monument otherwise they'll just damage the BoS soldiers and slaves nearby

Spoiler
Despite the early story hinting at it, you can't develop a relationship with Amata or take her out into the wastelands and be her 'protector' while she explores the harsh world outside the vault.


I have to admit, I'm a bit of a svcker for things like that.

Spoiler
It also was a bit heartbreaking that you never got with Alyx Vance in Half-Life 2

Hearing that Optimus Prime has demolished Raven Rock.
I conducted mass murder in the Wasteland for this?

Well I'm only about a third of the way into the game so far but two things stand out so far.....the "Little Moonbeam" scenario with Sydney is quite poignant....and even moreso the scenario with Marcella in Point Lookout which was one of the most surprising (and sad) things in the game so far for me....

What broke me first time round after having played FO3 for 4 weeks solid was that my charcater had died and I couldn't play on, it was the only game were the ending had made me depressed (for 3 days after...honestly I was emersed so much in it, 1st 3 weeks 16 hours per day, 4th week 12 hours per day playtime).

But usually watching Dogmeat get killed isn't a happy occassion, I to avoid dogmeat in my games unless I'm looking for the Firelance or need the Alien Blaster (after MZ was added). I don't like Doggie getting killed but when he does die hes no more my responsibility.
