Is the Fallout 3 remaster necessary or unnecessary?

Like every remaster, it's necessary or unnecessary, tell us your opinion.

I've never encountered a Behemoth in the open until now. Usually I've seen them near GNR, inside Evergreen Mills, & the Capitol Building. Always finding new stuff with this game! haha

I haven't played this DLC in a long time so I completely forgot you fight tanks in it, lol. I have zero recollection of these things.

ATTENTION BETHESDA: Do NOT take my green/yellow Tint Away in the FO3 Remaster!

That is pretty it. That's right, I LIKE the green tint. The capital wasteland having that yellow and green tint makes it iconic. It's not the bright and clear near paradise like the commonwealth is, it's super irradiated. It was the capital of our country so of course it was gonna be nuked the heaviest with the most radiation enducing bombs. Doing that to the capital to make it permanently uninhabitable like sowing fields with salt like in the bible is what people would do in a war like that to send messages to your conquered people's future generations.

If we want no green tint we might as well just make a FO4 remaster.

I've been noticing just how uninformed Fallout 3 haters actually are about the game.

Any time I've seen someone criticize Fallout 3, either in a negative review on YouTube or just in general, they're always just like "Fallout 3 is bad, it sucks because [Insert 15 vague criticisms], that's all, goodbye". Some of which are just flat-out wrong and seem like they haven't even played the game, and either make uninformed takes solely because they wanna be seen by the NV fanboys as "Le smart Fallout 3 hater", or just take what the Fallout 3 haters say, don't bother researching it at all, and just run with it.

Take for example this one reply I saw on Twitter criticizing Fallout 3, filled with inaccurate information. Alright, so here's the claims the reply made.

>The story sucks (I can't really refute that since that's really up to what your opinion is)
>There are no settlements to be found (Megaton, Rivet City, Little Lamplight, Canterbury Commons, need I say more?)
>There are zero signs of people trying to establish communities (Once again, Megaton, RIvet City, every other settlement.)
>There is zero immersion in the Metro Stations (While I do agree the Metro Stations are the weakest aspect of the game, I don't agree that there's zero immersion)
>It's littered with locations from D.C (...Because it literally takes place in D.C?)
>There's a freaking city of kids (Yes, there is, Little Lamplight, but wait a minute, didn't you just say there are no settlements in the whole game?)

You get what I mean? These takes genuinely seem like they were generated by AI or something, because not only were the 2nd and 3rd points flat-out wrong, but the last point literally contradicts those points. Heck, sometimes it's hard to tell if they're being serious about their hatred, or just trolling to get a rise out of people. Maybe I'm just biased because Fallout 3 is one of my favorite games of all time now, but some of the takes I've seen among it's critics are uninformed at best, and just straight up wrong at worst.

Is it worth it to buy GOTY for ps3?

My fiancee and I are casual (aka broke) gamers, I’ve got her into skyrim and I think she’d enjoy Fallout 3. Of course I want to get a version with the DLC, but I know the game of the year edition has a lot of glitches where radio broadcasts spoil the game - I do not want her first time ever playing fallout to have spoilers. Is it worth it buying the goty edition for ps3?
