I would reccomend checking the vanila game out first.

If you have a good video card I would put in cosmetic mods only.Like NMCs textures and retextured foods.The fun of fan made quests and armors is that it gives you a reason to continue playing the game after you have beaten the main story+dlc.

The only thing I can suggest is that you manually save alot.

I'd suggest using the Updated Unofficial Fallout 3 patch

I also recommend a save game mod like CASM, or an equivelent if you don't want to deal with the slightly esoteric nature of FOSE. :)

But yeah, play Vanilla, and then play mods. Try an alternate start mod later, as well, for better testing purposes.
Don't worry about mod balance when you do play mods, just try different ones, one at a time.
This game gets a little cranky. :)

Download graphical mods. I'm playing it for the first time, and downloaded a whole lotta mods to enhance the graphics, as I don't know if you noticed but the textures are crap. I've modded Skyrim for years, so it wasn't any different. Just get Nexus Mod Manager and enhance the ♥♥♥♥ out of FO3!

To be honest, I've never seen any bad textures in this game. Texture mods I enjoy very seldomly, except for female body replacer mods. :P

But still, the game is a bit old, I'd not recommend texture replacement mods if your computer is not amazing. :)

The vanilla ones... in 1080p they realy look bad. With the NMC Large text pack the game looks a lot better.

I don't think I played this game in 1080p. But I would imagine that they wouldn't look too good there. :)
I don't know that much about texture packs, all I know is they are a bit resource intensive. If I'm wrong about thatl, let me know.
I know they have mods for Morrowind that make it look better than Oblivion. :)

It all depends on your hardware. Don't forget it's a 2008 game!
