Once I figured out that I couldn't confront Tenpenny's minion with the Sheriff (who I like!) without getting the poor guy killed, most of my characters just shoot first, loot hat and glasses later.  I really wish there'd been a "he gets arrested" outcome, too.

If you do go through with it, though, the explosion is spectacular, and you've got a great view.

It's been awhile since I played F3, but I could have sworn there was a Tenpenny solution that let the ghouls and humans live together in [relative] peace.  They talk shit about each other, but there's no slaughter.

Thrillho:
I don't know which solution that would be. I went to the people who live in the tower one by one to see how they felt about the ghouls moving in, and most of them were okay with it, a couple of them needed threatening to comply. Then they moved in and fucking murdered everyone anyway. That made me really angry, and I got good karma for that too.

de_la_Nae:
You actually *can* confront Tenpenny's Megaton minion with the Sheriff without getting said Sheriff killed, but it's like the Markarth market assassination in Skyrim: you've gotta be quick on the draw. Just like in Skyrim, it's a legitimate situation that the game recognizes and rewards you for though.

Neko_Ali:
I have to cheat, generally... Quick save right before the conversation so that the inevitable times Burke is quicker I can go back and try again. Of course, you could just wait a while till you have a bunch of levels under your belt and a better gun.  Then your chances of winning that quick draw go up a lot.

TheEvilDog:
Or you can get a shotgun, save and then VATS Burke in the head.
In the case of Tenpenny Tower, it ends up being a catch-22 situation, kill the ghouls and Three-Dog calls you out on it over the radio while helping the ghouls and everyone dies. Neither situation is desirable and so the only real solution is to leave the idiots alone.

As for the followers, in any Bethesda game, it's always hit and miss with them and more often then not, it's a miss. Most of the time, I tend to just solo games because followers either get shot, blown up or smacked to death because they get in the way.
