I NEED Developer commentary for this game.

Post » Wed Aug 03, 2011 6:57 am

So I forget what I was doing, but was up to something in OWB when the thought came to me. "I NEED to hear the developers and cast give comments on parts of this!" Can you imagine hearing what James Urbaniak (Voice of Dr. O/Dr. Venture) has to say about some of the testing areas? Or what the voice for Dr. Mobius felt while prattering off his gibberish?
I want to know more about the work that went into planning Mr. House's part in the game.
Where there any inside jokes behind the H&H tools setup?
Who the hell named "Easy" Pete?
The stealth suit is cute and amusing with it's silly comments. "You're my best friend forever" What was the inspiration behind it? DOES IT INVOLVE CUBES? THAT ACT AS COMPANIONS?!
Where do Deathclaws come from? Is it when a daddy demon and a mommy goat love each other very much?

They are weaponised Jackson's Chameleons created to fight the chinese before the war. And like most lizards they come from eggs :hehe:

I do love hove Valve includes developer commentary in their games, and it's always a pleasure to hear what was the intent behind the things in game. In Fallout they could be just holotapes found lying around in the wasteland.

I think Easy Pete was named Easy Pete to demonstrate how 'easy' he is to kill. This is probably in reference to the quest 'Run Goodsprings Run' where you have to kill everyone in Goodsprings while helping the Powder Gangers. I guess he was easy to kill, therefore 'Easy Pete'. But I don't know, maybe he was supposed to be an old washed out male prosttute or something and got cut from the game. :shrug:

I'd actually love that as a bonus for Fo4.

Maybe a few hours worth of video+Commentary from the all of the developers, talking about how they designed everything, what came to their minds for the story, etc..

I'm gonna go Copypasta that to the Fo4 suggestions :D

Easy Pete is just a nickname. There are a lot of nicknamed and one-named characters in this series. It shouldn't be that hard to figure out.

XD a LOT of you have taken my joke questions seriously.

I only asked them to flesh out my post, It's not like THOSE things are my biggest curiosities or what-have-you. I'd just love to hear some bethdesda dev/com.

The holotape idea isnt bad. Would still probably be better to require it to be a unique option to activate, so someone who is trying to have a super srs gameplay doesnt need to break the fourth-wall with a really strangely placed fart joke.Under any circumstance... commentary!!!

Dude, Easy Pete is one of the stronger of the Goodsprings settlers, he usually kills most of the PGs for me.
