You mean like the kill cams in VATS?

These videos always remind me of ren and stimpy for some reason.

I wonder what crossed my mind as i watched the vid. Is it possible that crit's might do more than just bonus damage.

It sure looked like that was a bypass armor critical to me (hehe just saying from a table top gaming standpoint the bullets bouncing off before the head explosion put it in mind)

thats Gab heheheh - Edit just so you know buddy i was not calling you out, my finger slips while typing are so much funnier heh)

Also ok look there's Gk (thanks for being on the ball, and do you think that is it for the vids, or might we get one more showing a general all of what makes us Special in action ?

Indeed, that did look a lot like a DT-bypassing crit, but we know DT isn't in the game, sadly.

oh just release the game bethesda. are you really going to do a video for each special, and more? we know the game is obviously finished now... now it's just hyping on purpose..

No worries, I shouldn't have had that last drink at lunch. My work has been sloppy all afternoon.

As much as I enjoyed the Luck video - and all the rest of them - I am kind of glad to see the end of them.

We have almost three weeks left, and Bethesda may actually give us something more substantive to fill the time.

Heres hoping for a little more in-game video. Maybe from a trade show.

Not me. I've stayed away from all videos minus the SPECIAL & first trailer. Other than that no spoiling my wasteland journey!

Next set of vids
"As much as we all think we have what it takes to survive after a nuclear blast, the sad truth is the vast majority of you don't. To prepare you for the depressing future as most of the people you know, and probably including you, die in the aftermath of war, Vaultect proubly presents..."

What Makes You Not Special

This was my guess too, I thought it meant it might be Wild Wasteland. But we don't know if there's Traits in Fallout 4 or not yet, and it seems unlikely that Wild Wasteland would have such a high luck requirement (9 is sorta crazy high for it). Maybe it's like Wild Wasteland but much, much more expansive and impacting?

Based off the Perk Chart, my guess is that Luck 7 allows criticals to dismember targets while they're still alive and perhaps there's a blood loss mechanic associated with it. That would be cool. Or it just gives a much higher chance to cripple a target's body part.

Perhaps Luck 9 allows for random criticals outside of V.A.T.S.

I can't even begin to guess what Luck 5 is, but it looks so dumb haha.

I can't imagine they'd dedicate a perk for 9 Luck just to adding the possibility of random crits. It would have to be more exciting than that.

Good point haha, I just can't venture any better guesses on what it could possibly be, hmmm.

Rank 1: Random critical chance equivalent to your Luck

Rank 2 Level 20: Random crit chance = Luck x2

Rank 3 Level 50: Random crit chance = Luck x3

I'm thinking Luck of the Irish is the FO4 version of the Finesse perk.

Clearly, L5 is random seating encounters! With multiple levels to have several choices between a bench, ruined chair, ruined couch, etc.

OR, and this is a complete guess (obviously) - the possibility of finding items to upgrade the settlement. Blueprints, or the option to "breakdown" an item to learn how to build it, allowing for upgrading your house/settlement/defensive items?

All I know is that I'm staring with high enough luck to get a fairy luck mother that follows me around. Best part of any of the videos.

What if it's like Navi? HEY!

Already missing the series, it has been a blast! Well done, Bethesda! I hope to see more like it in the future.

It says in the luck description that it affects your chances of finding better items. You can read it here: http://i.imgur.com/okYe4i1.png "Luck is a measure of general good fortune. It affects the recharge rate of Critical hits, and your chances of finding better items."

Doesn't the luck meter for activating crits only appear in vats though?

Slow down the video to .25 speed and you'll see the meter is full before he activates it in order to execute a crit.

(I'm not discounting the notion that we can crit outside of vats, though. To my understanding, people at quakecon mentioned seeing crits outside of vats)

I watched the gameplay video and I never saw any.

Incidentally, though, the description for Luck in the more recent Character video omits the part about loot.

Good catch! But what's weird is that even though the description for luck says it affects your chances of finding better items during the character creation in Bethesda's official "https://youtu.be/D5esyZPt5Jo?t=8m9s" that was released on June 15th which is what your screenshot is from, that part of the description for luck is completely missing in their video "https://youtu.be/vsFpH4jm-QI?t=27s" which came out September 24th. Here's a screenshot of it: http://imgur.com/savf4vv

My guess is that it wasn't removed as an affect of luck, but that Bethesda made a mistake and either used old footage for the second video or it's just not mentioned in the description anymore for some reason.

I'm thinking that Luck never directly affected loot, but that was originally part of the description because of the Fortune Finder and Scrounger perks - which may have additional ranks now. I doubt the character video is actually older than the E3 footage.
