I'm hoping they made up new factions that actually have a background beyond "They're good guys" or "They're jerks" like the Regulators and Talon Company in 3. Also I hope the Brotherhood isn't a bunch of white knights again that you have to side with.

Well they showed the player killing Brotherhood Initiates in the trailer so that's hopeful.

Oh gently caress, your avatar reminded me that this game won't complete unless every home base has a stripper pole.

if there isn't a stripper pole or pole object already available someone will mod it in, plus animations to boot

Looking forward to building a sweet neon rave house with turrets on it and shooting enclaves in the face with a big plasma gun that I stuck a bunch of poo poo onto to make it blinged out as hell, in a suit of gold plated power armor.

same, i seriously don't care how terrible the writing is at this point, all the other poo poo looks fun as gently caress and if it isnt, a mod will probably make it fun

I have one wish for Fallout 4: that when you get your weapons or inventory cleared by a scripted sequence it remembers hotkeys and equipment when the gear is returned.

I'd rather have essential characters than fail quests because of an NPC dying.

NV had a big problem if you went pro-Legion; if you went on a rampage inside Hoover Dam and massacred everyone there before killing Kimball, you'd instantly fail the quest to kill Kimball when you got it because you murdered a vital NPC for the quest that you didn't know even existed. There are also other instances where you'll instantly fail a quest you didn't know existed because you decided to murder a random NPC that was actually important in a quest.

on the otherhand, why would Kimball land at the Hoover Dam if everyone got massacred

Once you get a hang of it the hacking minigames aren't too bad, they're slow though and could be more fun.
Lockpicking in Fallout imo is actually pretty good, and it seems like they basically kept it the same for Skyrim too so I suspect that at least will return.

my problem with the locking/hacking minigames isnt that they're hard. they're easy as poo poo, i'd just rather not do the same boring minigame a thousand times and instead make it a skill check.

I'm still watching streams until tomorrow, but can you cannabalize/transfer weapon mods from one weapon to the other? There doesn't look like an option to unequip a mod from a gun in the crafting interface (at least watching people mod in streams)

doesn't look like it, if there is i haven't figured out a way to do it yet

ImpAtom posted:

You can. When you change a weapon to another mod the previous mod is put into your inventory. So to unequip it you have to mod the gun to its lowest base level. Sometimes this costs a minor resource investment and other times it is free. As long as you have a mod in your inventory it is free to equip.

this is the most bethesda thing i've heard

liberty prime is the only good thing about fo3 and if the game is like $5 then its worth it just for that

agreed, my favorite part about fo3 was the sequence that broke 99% of the time forcing you to replay it from the start 50 times until it decides to work
