I always hated that siding with Asher was evil. Kidnapping a child and giving it to a man who just wants power and has no lying to the masses that he will free them when he really won’t in the end is considered good

[@WiseFish]

Yeah it was a pretty horrible decision either way. I just sided with Ashur in the end mainly for the child and his wife who seemed friendly.

[@ulyssespulido9556]

Well no side is really good. Sure on one end you can side with Asher which provides a hope that maybe one day there can be a better future. Though on the other sure you freed the slaves but you doomed everyone there to die of disease as unlike Asher’s wife who is a scientist I doubt Midea who takes care of the child if you side of the slaves has any experience to find a cure. Also whose to say they won’t end up in the situation they are before? Unlike the other possible scenarios at the very least with Asher we know for the fact that it wasn’t a facade. He wanted to find a cure to make the Pitt into something more. There just needed to be hard decisions along the way.

The Pitt was honestly one of the only times in Fallout 3 where you had to make a morally grey decision something much more common in Fallout New Vegas style). I feel like most of the choices in Fallout 3 are purely good vs evil, but with this one the player really needs to weigh the pros and cons. Especially concidering that Wernher is pretty sketchy.

[@ShadowSonic2]

NV's choices weren't really grey either, you just had more options.

[@Sybrakos1]

Don't forget Tenpenny tower, V101, etc.

[@awkwardGardener]

You kinda lose some of the atmosphere of the Pitt by using a weather mod that overwrites the DLC's weathers. Also as far as I remember Pittsburgh wasn't actually directly hit by any bombs, and the radiation that settled in the city was mostly due to all the radioactive water and sediment flowing into and around the city from elsewhere thanks to the three rivers that merge there. Feel free to tell me if I'm wrong of course.

[@cognitivedisability9864]

Yep, the 3 rivers are the cause, was never hit by bombs

[@colddaze6680]

Underground spots was a toxic waste dumping ground for shady pre war companies as well . Why three rivers literally will burn you poison you to death in seconds with toxicity if you fall in.

[@apyrrhus0]

two rivers, the monongahela and the allegheny converge to form the Ohio. only two rivers merge

[@renalxdo]

To this day its my favourite DLC just because of the ambiance. Post apocalyptic but turned to 100

[@ProfessionalScofflaw]

Me and my cousin always had a theory that trogs and wendigos are derived from the same mutation. I don't know that trogs are derived from FEV like the wendigo; maybe it's a different strain that the Pitt's environment created. But you can see the similarities between the two.

[@udamthewaster9454]

It makes sense

[@fungisrock8955]

Yeah maybe it came from the people who settled Appalachia from the Pitt, it just developed over time and continued genetically through the population.

Asher has a plan, scientific knowledge, mass production, an eventual cure, power armour, and determination to raise the Pitt from a slave city to an eventual self sufficient city who's citizens arent effected by the miasma that engulfs the city. Werhners plan is sinply to free his people whilst using the baby as a hostage. while thats somewhat admirable, the potential that the Pitt and Asher holds brings a feint hope to the wasteland despite how "evil" he may seem.

[@Cothfotmeoo]

Never heard of this place but how brutal! Definitely some questionable ruling tactics but comes down to that "when in Rome" saying. At least Asher was trying to cure the disease while the smart raider, not sure if he would be THAT smart. XD Well played!

[@charles52able1]

My question is, does Marie actually hold a cure or is she the product of two healthy people that have lived outside the Pitt for much of their lives? Yes she gets some toxic exposure just being in the Pitt, but I imagine the living conditions in the 'palace' are alot better than the steel yards. Ashur is a good leader, but he really doesn't have a way to convert the raiders or maintain their loyalty beyond the next paycheck. He may have the personal strength and charisma to keep them in line, but ultimately his civilization will collapse with his death. Caesar's Legion has the same problem. Both strong leaders who sadly have no way to preserve their legacy after death.

​@giovannicervantes205 3 Luck wouldn't have much to do with it. A G.E.C.K is pure science. There's been so much condensed pollution and radioactive waste in the Pitt since pre war they might have to deploy more than one G.E.C.K to clean it up.

[@colddaze6680]

That's a good question I had not thought of before and definitely an option they could go with. Something they would need to do to fully clean and detoxify and restore the Pitt to some kind of former glory. I'm thinking Sandra would be the one for the job. She would monitor the environment,collect data etc. While Pitt raiders would physically remove ,clean and clear as much toxic waste as possible first. Then deployment of a G.E.C.K would complete the job . No idea if humans should be in direct area when it's deployed. Maybe the people should evacuate outside the walls when it is deployed?

[@arcane5413]

The Pitt is my favorite DLC in Fallout 3. Something about the atmosphere of the DLC put me in another world. Being in an industrial area already had it feel dirty but that on top of the super sickness, smog, radiation, slaves and trogs made the Pitt truely feel like a different part of the world. And on top of that the pitt has probably one of my favorite choices in Fallout 3. Kidnap a child, kill her parents and support system to free the slaves and potentially come up with a cure. Or let the raiders keep the baby and have a higher chance of a cure being developed but the people developing that cure using slavery as a means to an end.

I was always confused who to side with in the Pitt. But I guess I was right. Wernher is no liberator but another usurper. When I discovered Ashur's side of the story, I was convinced he is not evil. It didn't felt right to rid the Pitt of the one who kept everything in order. He's just doing what needs to be done so that the Pitt will survive & finally thrive, even if at the cost of hundreds of slaves.

I'd like to see a Fallout game, or just a DLC where most of the play area wasn't wiped out by bombs and horribly affected by nuclear fallout. Each game and DLC has shown how the areas they take place in have been affected and I think it could be interesting to see a normal looking setting affected by the influx of super mutants, raiders, ghouls and maybe new groups coming out of the vaults.

[@colddaze6680]

Zion in Honest Heart's was the prime example of how an area and environment could heal. The cleanest water and skies at least. Lots of animals and game to hunt. The vault 22 survivors brought the spore carriers contagion with them. Cause some were infected when they didn't even know it. The spore carriers are in one smaller area of the map , and one cave. The surviving vault dwellers moved on after Randall Clark killed over like 80 of them, for attacking ,killing and cannibalising the smaller group of Mexican refugees he was helping to show how to survive before.

One thing Wise got wrong. He's not an initiate, Ashur was a paladin. If you go to Fallout Wiki, always labels him as a paladin. Exactly right ,no BoS initiate is allowed power armour. Ashur is older ,way older than most initiates and has great organizational, military and leadership skills. He'd have to be an experienced paladin to organise a whole raider army.
