Want to Be Evil? Head to Tenpenny Tower
Written by Brian on November 25, 2008 – 10:19 pm -The second time I played through Fallout, I wanted to be evil. It was different, and it let me pick up Jericho as a follower from the get-go.
Unfortunately, this turned out to be harder than I thought. There is one simple way to get pretty evil pretty quickly – blow up Megaton. I just couldn’t bring myself to do it, though. Got kindda attached to the residents after living there for one play-through. I wouldn’t feel right blowing up Moira’s little shop.
I did kill Moriarty, tho. That felt good.
Without that giant push into evil territory, it was hard to stay evil. I did a lot of stealing and I killed Moriarty, which put me just inside Evil. That let me pick up Jericho, but over the next few hours of play time I drifted back towards Neutral.
Then I got back to Tenpenny Tower. The first time around, I was nice and I persuaded the residents to let the Ghouls live there. No such luck this time.
I unlocked the entrance to the tunnels and the feral ghouls came streaming out. I followed them inside, put on the Ghoul mask, and started massacring the residents of Tenpenny Tower. They were all a bunch of snooty punks anyway, so it didn’t seem so bad to kill them all.
But it certainly made me Very Evil.
So if you’re lookin to sink your karma rating, head over there. Let the ghouls in, and enjoy the slaughter.

Lol it’s a lot easier to be evil than good,unless ur willing too pay a lot of caps for it or wasting many Purified waters,I’m playing to get the achievement for getting lvl 20 now on good,but without the guy worshipping the bomb I’d be very evil again xD
I’m almost lvl 20,then on my last playthrough I’m gonna have to stay neutral…wonder how the hell I’m gonna do that >_<
I found being good to be pretty easy. There are many side quests that you can complete that will grant you bonus good karma. If you don’t go out of your way to lose karma (kill/steal non-stop), then it’s not hard and you don’t have to waste money and water to get good karma.
Since Tenpenny Tower I’ve found it really easy to maintain my Really Evil status. I think it’s just that initial boost – either to become good or evil – that can be difficult.
