What Does Karma Do In Fallout 3 Start

Jan 22, 2016.Sponsored video. In the past, the Fallout franchise has been quick to judge by using the 'Karma' system. Good actions are given 'Good Ka. Karma on fallout is basically just like a good and evil system (similar to Fable I and II: Awesome games) If you have bad karma people will more or less hate you and vice versa for good karma. Another interesting factor is that people with bad karma are hunted by bounty hunters and people with good karma are attacked by evil assassins. Jul 30, 2010 Unlike like Fallout 3, in NV there are different factions throughout the fallout world. Your karma affects which factions will let you talk to them, do quests, etc. And depending on which factions you choose to help, others factions will not help you.

Karma

Fallout 3’s Karma system was pretty straightforward. Do good things, get positive Karma. Do bad things, get negative Karma. Various companions will follow you based on your Karma rating. High Karma characters will even leave you if you start making bad decisions. Some towns even offer benefits based on Karma while different factions may pursue you based on the same. Fallout 4…kind of does this, though it’s more tied to a companion’s approval rating than anything else (which can then open up their respective side quests). Your choice of faction is more straightforward as well – pick one that’s opposed to the others and usually, the others will be opposed to you, sooner or later. Are the two systems really all that different? Probably not but the Karma system in Fallout 3 did at least give some illusion to the impact of your actions. Plus it netted you a nice little title or two.

Karma is the reflection of all good and evil choices you make during the game and how they are perceived by the inhabitants of the wasteland.

Karma levels

You begin the game with a value of zero, which increases or decreases based on the players actions. There are 5 levels of karma:

Your karma status is defined by a 'karma title', depending of your karma points and on your level. Karma titles above level 20 can only be reached with the add-onBroken Steel.

• Giving away scrap metal to Walter in Water Processing Plant, Megaton for free:+10 karma per item
• Giving away purified water to beggar characters like Carlos outside of Rivet City:+50 karma per item

What Does Karma Do In Fallout 3d

• Devour a corpse (Cannibal perk required):-1 karma per corpse
• Stealing from a non-evil character or faction:-5 karma per instance (note that when stealing from owned (red text) containers, such as cabinets or lockers, the karma change applies once per activation of that container. Meaning, if you open a container once and steal two items, you lose 5 karma, but if you open the same container twice, stealing one item each time, you will lose 5 karma each time, which means you lose 10 karma). Items can be replaced in owned containers after being stolen, and then stolen again and again with the same karma loss each time, making for a useful method by which console gamers can decrease their karma, although repeatedly hacking an owned terminal is a faster way of doing this.
• Repeatedly hacking an owned (red text) terminal (Classifies as stealing, but can be done over and over again)-5 karma per hack attempt, NOTE, even accessing the terminal will result in negative karma
• Selling ears taken from the corpses of good characters (you killed) to Daniel Littlehorn via the Contract Killer Perk:-10 karma per ear
• Killing a good creature:-25 karma
• Performing an evil action in a quest: At least -50 karma
• Killing a non-evil character:-100 karma (although, this can be gotten around by shooting them once, making them hostile, then letting a follower kill them.)
• Giving psycho to Paulie Cantelli in Rivet City: -100 karma each time so long as he's alive
• Enslaving any character with the Mesmetron:-100 karma
• Causing Mister Lopez to commit suicide (either by pushing him or insulting him):-500 karma
• Letting the feral ghouls into Tenpenny Tower in the Tenpenny Tower quest: -600 karma
• Blowing up Megaton in the Power of the Atom quest:-1000 karma
• Infecting Project Purity with the modified FEV in the Quest Take it Back!:-1000 karmaBroken Steel
• Blowing up the Citadel in the Who Dares Wins quest in the Broken Steel add-on :-1000 karma
• Taking the Devil's Highway perk in the Broken Steel add-on:-2000 karma (essentially, it resets your karma to the minimum -1000)

Effects of karma levels

Good karma

• Access to Star Paladin Cross and Fawkes.
• Talon Company Mercs will come after you.
• A citizen in Megaton will reward you for your good-doings with ammo and other random gifts.

Neutral karma

• The use of the Impartial Mediation perk, the single biggest skill boost in the game.
• Access to Sergeant RL-3, a good early-to-mid game follower, and Butch.
• Neither Talon Company, nor the Regulators will come after you.

Bad karma

• The Regulators will be after you.
• Access to Clover and Jericho, good early-to-mid game followers.
• A slaver in Paradise Falls will reward you for your wrong-doings with ammo and other random gifts.

Companions and Karma

In Fallout 3, some companions have a karma level requirement that must be met if the player wishes to enlist them:

• Clover and Jericho need a bad karma to be recruited. After being hired, they will follow the player regardless of changes in karma level, although they will often mention how boring the player is, should he become good.
• Butch DeLoria and Sergeant RL-3, both recruited with neutral karma, are similar to Clover and Jericho. They will not leave if your karma becomes good or evil, but unlike Clover, you can't get them back with a high or low karma level when the main story separates you.
• Players with high karma may hire Fawkes or Star Paladin Cross. They are not slaves or servants like Clover and Charon: they will follow you of their own free will, without any cost, if you ask them and have good karma. Be aware, however, that being good characters, they will leave your side if you become evil after hiring them, and will refuse to follow you again until your karma is high enough.
• Dogmeat will follow you regardless of what your karma level is.
