New Launch Trailer

Wow female protagonist looks good in a Vault suit. I may just keep her in it.

Looks like the Institute needs to go down. Can't have those abominations run loose on humanity.

I still am leaning towards Maxson being the commanding officer (not an Elder) of the expedition. The Wasteland is simply not a good place for a warrior. Now, to be fair, Bethesda also likes making pretty people. ^_^

If I where you I would strongly avoid to be confronted with such a bad writing.

What a wonderfully ironic typo :lol:

But yes I meant to write sentiment, and not sentient (damn you Freudian slip).

Wait, what? They don't have "anything to do." I'm talking about the rhetoric, tone, and imagery. Strong words, enemies at the gates type of stuff.

Wow, you are just a very pessimistic person. But your opinion is your opinion. Don't you want to play the game before judging its story?

I honestly believe I could, but alas I'm not furnished with unlimited funds and 100+ developers to aid my efforts.

And anyone with a pencil could write lines about

>LE DEMOCRACY IS FLAWED!

>LE DICTATORSHIPS AREN'T TOTALLY BAD!

Which is what NV was wholly based around, yet you seem to think something everyone who finished high school knows is top tier writing.

Or is it because Obsidian wrote it rather then the actual quality of the writing?

Judging from the trailer the writing seems better than past BGS games, or at least it makes it seem like they're trying.

Not great, but, definitely an improvement, especially if they take ques from NV and have actual factions.

Though, it's not exactly like I play these games for their stellar main quest, I enjoyed FO3 and Oblivions a lot and their main stories were rubbish.

Not needed it's a Bethesda game. He already knows. (At least he thinks that he knows, it's called preconception.)

That's true (on both accounts) and I intend to play it before ultimately condemning or condoning it.

But it's not irrational to be disconcerted with the writing in the trailer, though I can't expect much lucidity in a storm of hype.

I understand that and there is nothing about any of those lines in the Fallout 4 trailer that is specifically evoking them. If you like the lines that is great but there is no attempt there to call back some sort of 50s mentality as you were asserting.

This video showed more people talking and confirmed the bad animations for all characters. I was holding out hope it was just a strange thing with Piper.

How about destroying Megaton?





Akul, you're not wrong:

Files in the Pip-Boy app point to Faction Quests for the Institute.

They kind of did though, many NPC lines in NV were almost directly copied from the books about various forms of government I had to read in high school.

Yep. We predicted this a long time ago, Blade Runner FO. My only hope is that it is the MWBoS come to deliver righteous justice to these "robots".

Can't be because it's a Bethesda game. John Henry Eden explained it already :) .

Yup. Just as i know to expect poor mechanics and non-existing balancing.

I've dared them to prove my preconceptions wrong trough out the production, but they ignored me :(

I'm not sure why people hate those two quotes i mean they are a bit cliche but they suit the fallout universe really well. They both recognize that people and war seem to be inseparable in the fallout universe i mean humanity almost destroyed the planet they called home pretty much proving the enemy line, also the protagonist being a veteran before the bombs fell gives them a unique perspective on how war exists alongside people no matter what catastrophic events are caused by humanities obvious penchant for conflict.
