I think the fully voiced player character is a great thing and the times of silent protagonists are kind of outdated and boring.

Inn really loving the stuff they're putting in fallout 4. I can't wait to build my own settlements. Also gun creating looks amazing.

You know what a conversation is right? People talk back and fourth, so if the protagonist is talking in every conversation that means there can't be much more NPC lines than protagonist lines. If Fallout 4 is to have as much dialog as New Vegas it means that every NPC would have to speak four lines for every one line the protagonist speaks, which I don't think is likely.

You know with the newer consoles and PCs their limit of things to put in the games has risen greatly. Also your excuse is pretty dumb in general.

Where did they say you can bone every companion? Also so what if you could, you don't really have to. I found the romances in skyrim pretty bad so I never did them.

Either you had to go in yourself and Ron Perlman would praise you for following your father heroic example during the ending. Or you send Sarah Lyons in and Ron Perlman would call you a shithead. I suppose there was a third option in that you could simply do nothing and Project Purity would explode with you in it.
Broken Steel added the possibility of sending in Fawkes, Charon, or Sergeant RL-3, after which Ron Perlman would still call you a shithead.


You can go in yourself with broken steel and it would have you wake up 2 weeks later and recovering from radiation poisoning. At least that's what I remember.

Keyboard and mouse controls suck. Just face facts.

I recently played New Vegas on pc with mouse and keyboard and everything except the inventories and menus was perfectly fine. Skyrim on pc is perfectly fine with the keybaord and mouse except the UI. My point being is I have great faith that the game play will be fine, what I'm hoping for is the UI is improved. If not then mods will help.

Voiced protag, dialogue system similar to the one in ME series, romanceable companions. Like those are supposed to be bad things :rolleyes:

It's not like mass effect invented these things.

And so what if there's romances, if people don't like it they don't have to do it. People are acting like the dialog selection was better before, honestly it wasn't. And I'm glad we have voiced protagonists.

It was incredibly well made and very fun. It was magnitudes better than the single player. I hope they don't gently caress it up for the next mass effect.

A small bit of news out of QuakeCon

IGN says: The mod tools won't be out until sometime next year. So we have a few blessed months of The Real Fallout(TM), before the net explodes in nudity mods.

Yeah I doubt there will be big project nevada styled things for the console. No MCM and such. But like I can see the console mod workshop letting console users browse through the PC made like, guns and followers and stuff.

That's the least I expect of the console mods. I imagine it would be on par with Stream Workshop at least if not worst.

I was watching a gameplay breakdown video where they paused the video a lot pick out tiny details. One i found interesting was just looking at bodies will show a quick inventory and you can loot without going into the inventory transfer screen.

It also looks like RAD will take away overall health. Severe rad poisoning might leave you with only 25 hp for example

Do you have a link? It sounds interesting.

The gameplay looks exactly like Fallout 3's, which is even more disappointing considering that I thought at least the gunplay was gonna be better. Maybe I should hold my judgment for when I see footage of them fighting people with guns, but none of the enemies really reacted to getting shot. Compare this to F.E.A.R., where enemies will get knocked on their rear end, stumble, and get knocked off balance when you shoot them.

Man, you suck.

I don't quite get this. Ghouls aern't magical zombies, why wouldn't losing an arm or leg put them into shock and make them bleed out like any other living creature? It's not like we see any Ghouls with missing limbs in other Fallout games.

The npc ghouls that talk maybe but the ones you find that attack you for no reason are pretty much mindless zombies.
