Omnicarus posted:I always wondered why games didn't have a list of first and last names, say 200 or 300, and just let you mix and match and fit in dialog to accomodate. I suppose that it would really throw off the cadence of the voice acting. Would be a good place to start experimenting on, but it'll take a lot of work for technology to mold a minor voice actors to pronounce CRUNCH SLAMFISH and Your Mother as naturally as the rest of their already recorded speech.

eating only apples posted:Me and a friend were just talking about this, how he's noticeably a bit rubbish especially compared to the other big faction heavyweights. On the other hand, you do only meet him very briefly, and are likely to spend more time listening to, say, Hsu or Kimball, who have unique voice actors iirc (well you don't spend much time with Kimball but you get the idea). The dude who does Oliver supposedly does a whole mess of other NCR characters, but his Vault page doesn't even list Oliver, so has there been a mixup there? It really does weaken the Mr Houses Champion moment of the game when the dude sounds so bored. Seriously, I just proved you wrong with words and killer robots man! show some emotion! rage! something argh!

Actually, it is a pretty much needed skill. He still was a over inflated Jack rear end who needs a better VA to make his much more satisfying when you correct him into signing that smug treaty.

Beaumains posted:On the flipside of the "who do you always kill" discussion... who do you always pay a visit to even if it's unnecessary/out of the way? Doc Mitchell is my pal, I go to him for all my medical needs and he gets all my caps. He is such a bro he patched your head up for free without even a scar and doesn't even mind if you take stuff from his house. Compare that to anyone in the NCR, who will bust a cap in you if you just touch an empty soda bottle, even if you've saved their republic a dozen times over. I wish Doc had a questline, just cause he's a cool dude. I could never kill the old Doc too. I'm also glad to see I wasn't the only one who shot Follows-Chalk at the start of Honest Hearts. He came out of nowhere just as I was ambushed again oh god! My only complaint really about HH is that the Tribal stuff for the three tribes should have been a lot more unique looking.

Francois Kofko posted:The future of the legion after Caesar's death really is an interesting affair; regardless of whether or not the Courier won the dam for the Legion, with Lanius at the helm, it would definitely soon become another group of raiders. Kind of sad because that would basically turn them into the new fiends were they to be used again They could always write about a Roman Empire-esqe split, the dickheaded shallow raiders going one way and some reformed Legion Senators going the other.

Hey, even if a crazy assed fifties sci-fi computer is going to need to know which direction to vaguely go. It is a big ocean, now full with drifting big rear end ice bergs and crazy sea monsters. Plus that chart thing would work if your wanting to go in on low-tech, assuming people took the time to pass down how to read and use the drat things whilst not being killed and eaten by raiders. And while we're sperging, what you and the crew going to eat in the next weeks or months at sea?

You are joking, right?
Reveilled posted:You don't need a computer to cross the atlantic. You need a wooden ship with a sail on it. A navigation chart would definitely help, and given that we've got a load of people in vaults with books I'm pretty sure there'd be someone who could learn to read one. But you don't even need a navigation chart, the first time we did it we didn't even know America existed. And how did they know? with experinced sailors learning it, practicing it and passing it down through word of mouth or book. And that is just basic navigation. It'd be a pretty tough feat to organise man, even assuming there is a whacky Nautical themed Vault kicking around somewhere in the Wastes. Personally, I'd rather keep most of the single player stuff in the United States. They'd need to write so much new lore to cover what happens with Europe and China and catch up with the US. I'd love to see it though.

Reveilled posted:How did they know what? That sentence doesn't make any sense. To read navigation charts and other navigation skills as well as practice them, not to mention adapt the old ships or build new ones with the crazy limited resources and train the crews of these ships. Even if a computer does most of the stuff your still going need some human hands so it doesn't merge with a tentacle monster when the special nuclear fuel tanks burst and creates a hybred wanting to rule the Wasteland. Not saying it'd be impossible, but it'd require a gently caress load of work, time and effort to sail across a possibly damaged monster soaked Atlantic where only a handful of ruthless bastards like the Fallout 3 guys mentioned above might just make it. Maybe they should just ride Airships instead  . The NCR or Brotherhood could pull it off with some Tribals but I think soldifying the frontier is a higher priority right now. Speculating in Fallout sucks though, somebody will always get mad no matter what. I really wish they'd consider doing some sort of Fallout comics over seen by the original writers. The universe is still frustratingly blank outside what we know from the games.
