Just confirmed via Erik Todd Dellum's twitter.

Eh, we pretty much knew already, but I guess its nice to finally have it confirmed.

Plus I don't expect any noticeable character from 3 appear in 4 anyway.

I'd say that Arthur Maxson is a certainty personally.

Well, I can't say I won't miss him. But, I can only hope there will be new characters for me to love and enjoy.

Something at last that we agree on

Possibly, tho still, if so he will most likely conviently not talk about the protagonist from 3, nor any details of the main quest events.

Damn, I was really hoping he'd be in it. This is a pretty sizable disappointment.

Well, maybe not the protagonist but I'd say his presence and the Brotherhood's would be indicative of the ultimate outcome of Fallout 3's events. Enclave loss

At least we have One Dog. He may not be a very good DJ but he makes a mean side-kick!

Not a big loss. Sure, I'd still love to have Erik in, but Three Dog's character was a little too over the top for my tastes. Mister New Vegas was like a breath of fresh air when I first heard him, hopefully FO4's DJ is reminiscent (not a clone) of New Vegas' DJ.

Damn! Oh well. Mayhap a new radio dike jockey that's just as awesome will be in.

Good. Not that I don't like Three Dog, I'd just like to see new characters for a new game.

(and plot-wise, if the timeline is close to when Fallout 3 happens, I couldn't see him abandoning the "Good Fight" / the people of the Capitol Wasteland / his station. Wouldn't fit the character. Honestly, not even if it was a couple years after FO3.)

Glad to see Three Dog not returning, shame to not see Erik Todd Dellums return to voice at least one character. I had thought after his second role in Skyrim he would have to be a staple voice actor in a Bethesda game like Wes Johnson. Guess that's not the case.

Wes Johnson has been limited to one or two roles in the last 2 Bethesda games. Not like Oblivion where he was every Imperial you met plus Sheogorath (which was awesome).

Not entirely so. NPC wise, yes, his roles were limited. But he also voiced Super Mutants and Sentry Bots in Fallout 3, and once again the Dremora in Skyrim. He has always been good at those eccentric roles.

Regardless, I'm okay with him having less roles, but voicing unique NPCs. His talent really adds to what makes his characters so great like Sheogorath and Hermaeus Mora. I would hope he returns to voice another unique NPC in Fallout 4.

Hmm apparently I just learned something new. I knew about the dremora and Hermaous. I didn't know about Super Mutants and sentry bots though although now that you mention it the super mutants are quite obvious and I can't believe I didn't notice until now. Lol

He can't come back because I killed him.........he was saying bad things about me.

You should stop doing bad things then.

Hey man, that was just like, you know, his opinion. Shouldn't be labeling people as the Scourge of Humanity or Satan for having a different perspective of things!

Geez, take a joke, will ya? See the smiley in my post? Never tried to be mean or nasty. Take it easy there.

And good riddance too.

It'd make sense given that he went on and on about fighting the Good Fight in the Capital Wasteland. It wouldn't make any sense for him to pack up and head to Boston, even if Fallout 4 happens years after Fallout 3. His place is there at the GNR, and always will be.

You guys remember when Todd(3-dawg) said he had "permission" that more three dog may be on the way? Did he do something wrong and screwed himself out of a job. Why would he say that?

Wasn't that for the shoddycast ep he did or something like that.

I think it was on twitter...
