I bought the original Fallout today and almost immediately fucked up by taking out my knife in Shady Sands, at which point all of the townspeople converged on me with intent to kill. The dude with the rifle actually missed me and killed the guy I was going for in the first place, which made me lol.

I don't know if I can go back safely now. Please someone tell me I don't need to go there to get the rope for the Vault 15 elevator shaft. :<
