I remember in fallout 4 I died and there was a clipping glitch and my body was sent into the distance at MACH 100. Nearly crashed my Xbox

Uninstalling Fallout 3
having a death claw that is a quest target to launch into the air a despawn permanently in fallout new vegas
being an actual retard who can't form coherent sentences but still has high enough science skill to fix HELIOS 1 and shit talk Fantastic is pretty high on my list
and that time the Brotherhood of Steel came complaining that i had "violated their Codex", so i threw some plasma grenades in their power armored faces. i see enough of that shit in Warhammer already, didn't feel like dealing with it in the Mojave
Kellogg's memories from Fallout 4 are my favorite fallout memoriea

Going into Vault 22 in New Vegas without knowing anything about it beforehand. Seriously, what a terrifying experience. My favorite Vault so far, and I think it's gonna be hard to top it, for me at least.
Never
The first time this played and I started zooming across northern California

I think another moment I should probably mention was the moment I realised just what kind of game New Vegas was for the first time.
I bought the game on day one, but I went in almost completely blind, having only watched the ED-E trailer, and one trailer that aired on late night tv.
I'd played every Bethesda Game since Oblivion, and while I thoroughly enjoyed them- I never cared about their worlds, and the way the story worked in those games brought me no end of frustration.
"sorry, you can't kill this random guard! he has to speak one line in a scripted conversation later in the main quest!"
"Please stand exactly on this spot while the more important characters talk about the plot you aren't really invested in, in fact, we will just go ahead and disable player controls for this particular bit of exposition!, ur welcome!"
"what do you mean you don't want to work with the brotherhood of steel? ofc you do! they are the good guys! your character is a good guy right!? lets just make all the important ones immortal just to be sure you don't kill any of them by mistake!"
So when I found myself in this new wasteland where I could literally be anyone I wanted to be, free to kill anyone I wanted, work with anyone I wanted, approach the main quest from whatever angle I wanted- and the game would never step in and be like "lol sorry you can't do that simply because we didn't plan for a scenario where you did". When I started talking to NPCs and they were detailing this world with a rich history that I found myself actually caring about, mentioning events of previous fallout games that actually made me want to know more about the setting and become immersed in the world. When I found out I could make my character canonically bisexual by taking certain perks.
In that moment the biggest grin in the world spread over my face and I knew I was playing something that would go on to be one of my favourite games of all time.
I'm at a party and one of the friends is playing Fallout 3 for the first time while a bunch of us watch. He's seemingly alone in the streets, as he walks to a crumbling building in the middle of Washington DC. Going into the ruins (no interior, just world ruins) I hear *plat plat plat plat plat plat*, he stops at a doorway and brings up the Pip Boy. I see it, a hand on the ground in the corner of the doorway, he doesn't see it, he's busy paging through his inventory. I whisper to one of the guys "this is gonna be good", and right after he closes his inventory the Centaur comes around the corner and whips him. He screams WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT and fucking bolts out of the building and halfway down the street into a Super Mutant encampment.
I miss Centaurs.
It was the first time I ever played a Fallout game, it was Fallout 3. I'd seen my ex-step-dad play it here and there and it peaked my interest. I started the game, I'm a little boy in front of a huge big screen, and the title music plays. I was super intimidated. I played it for a few hours, got through the intro, megaton, and Moira Brown sends me to super duper mart.
I go inside the super duper mart, and the eerie music starts playing, I get absorbed into this post-apocalypse atmosphere, and then I fucking die. I quit the game go to the main screen and just breathe it all in, I was so intimidated I wasn't sure if I should keep going. Pretty good memory imo.
the first time I ever played New Vegas and got to Nipton, I immediately opened fire on the Legion.
problem was that I wasn't used to weird Bethbryo jank combat and the whole thing turned into a huge clusterfuck of bullets and explosions
eventually it was just me and Vulpes 1v1, with both of us on the brink of death and me only barely short of completely running dry on ammo, when I managed to disarm him with a stray lucky shot, steal his Ripper, and kill him with it
Purest post of all time
I have a Nipton story too.
First time I played, I was rolling up on Nipton. The lottery guy ran up to me yelling about how we won at all that. I didn't know what he was talking about or what happened, but all I knew was that whatever he won, I wanted it. So I shot him in the back of the head. Found nothing on him except the ticket.
Boy, did I feel silly when I went like ten more meters up the road.
You didn't get what he won, but you did take it.
Fucking Metzger to get a lower price on Vic then fucking Joey and getting mad that I didn't get anything out of that too

While playing Dead Money, a Ghost Harvester threw a spear at my head and it destroyed my hat

Some of the Fallout 2 dialogue just cracks me out.
