Psychotic Weasel posted:Rumour has it that the game does have a voice protagonist, but due to budgetary constraints they also had to have the guy voice all the other characters, too. He just throws his voice a bit for each one. Worse, it's the dude who plays Belethor in Skyrim

If this game really is set in West Virginia then I'm hoping you get to run into four ghouls named Justin, Travis, Griffin, and Clint who are all off on an adventure.

cargohills posted:I'd just like to say that until I looked at it on a map today I assumed West Virginia was in the South. This is entirely because of the song. West Virginia is the most southern of the northern states and the most northern of the southern states. It's this weird middle ground between the north and the south that has all the worst traits of both. Literally every single person I've ever met that's left West Virginia for somewhere else hates the state with the blistering fury of a thousand suns. Watching the trailer I very badly hope power armor works like it did in the previous games. Fusion cores were a dumb idea and having to repair power armor but not regular armor was dumb.

West Virginia is basically broken in two because half the state should have been in the South and half should have been in the North.

Rinkles posted:Sounds like ~influencers~ may soon or already have had a crack at the game. Hum... like a closed demo where they can run through some set pieces? Or a crack at the actual game? Could Bethesda try and pull another "oh, and the game comes out in 12 weeks" like they did with 4? Depending on what this game actually entails that could be a nice surprise.

Power armor was so bad in F3/NV it was basically a hindrance, 4 was the first game since 1/2 to actually make it a thing that actually makes you better in combat

I went to college in DC. We went to West Virginia because it had gambling. We sometimes bought moonshine, because we were stupid college students. West Virginia is a mountain state and has some natural beauty. It also has CIA headquarters, which should make a fun dungeon. I believe that West Virginia has the lowest nominal per capita GDP in the country, but GDP adjusted for cost of living places it in the middle or slightly above the middle of the country. West Virginia broke off from Virginia because it didn't want to secede from the Union. But my understanding is that this was less because of a principled anti-slavery stance, but because much of the white population was too poor to afford slaves and they resented plantation owners. There's a lot of natural landscape and history to explore in West Virginia, so I'm looking forward to seeing what they'll do. At the very least, West Virginia means we're unlikely to have subway mazes.

Agree that the scenery in the Appalachians is quite stunning. A shame the region is full of morons who want to ruin it for everyone else. Anyway - Bethesda stream starting now.

RealFoxy posted:As long as you're on the border to a much better state (Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania) it's not SO bad. But if you're stuck in southern WV, central WV, or Western WV you're basically in one of the poorest parts of the USA. It's also a terrible state because there's practically no economy except mining, especially coal, and coal mining is infamous as a dying industry that rednecks refuse to admit is dying. Mines struggle to stay open, towns get poorer, and nobody tries to really do anything except try to reopen the coal mines to get the jobs back. prometheusbound2 posted:West Virginia broke off from Virginia because it didn't want to secede from the Union.

There's a lot of natural landscape and history to explore in West Virginia, so I'm looking forward to seeing what they'll do. Slavery was mostly a plantation thing in the South, and West Virginia is too mountainous to have plantations. Even now there's not much agriculture because of how rough the terrain is. It's all mining and logging.
