Do you think J.E. Sawyer did a good job?

Do you think J.E. Sawyer did a good job of singing in New Vegas? I thought his take on the hit song "Home on the Range", "Home on the Wastes" was music to my ears. I enjoyed going to the Tops and listen to some good songs. If I don't have NV, I at least have the songs bookmarked. ( I bookmark things) He seems to have a knack for music. I guess if video games doesn't work out for him, he could always fall back onto music!

I just wonder if these songs are available on the radio......

Cobwebs and Rainbows was great. I wish there were more like it. Honestly, considering how his voice, I am surprised he sang those. It just doesn't fit.

I'd heard a few of those songs before but I never made the connection with him. I usually don't like that type of music but even I have to give kudos where there due.

There were more good things than bad things from what I've heard so yes, he did.
Only things I'm annoyed about is the Tesla Cannon/Beaton not having AOE and Cazador's supposedly being slightly nerfed.

It was just the removal of COMANNNNNDOO!!!!!! style stinging, not actual stats, I think that were "nerfed"

He sang them? If so he has a good voice. Gregory Alan Williams does the voice of the Lone Drifter and his voice sounds is what it sounds like when he sings. Sure it was not just the instruments that were played by Sawyer?

I know he wrote the songs. He did a great job. I vote for Streets of New Reno.

So?
Shouldn't have been tinkled with at all.
I'd have given them +20% speed and +1 PER instead of nerfing anything about them.
I like enemies that present a challenge, cazador's did that.
There was no need to nerf them at all.
If anything they should have focused on beefing every single enemy up. /imo ;)

I do agree with you, I like challenges, nerfing the Cazadore at all is silly, but when you think about it, Cazadores are flying versions of Usain Bolt on Turbo, does the extra foot mean anything since they are so flipping fast?

Although they should have been given something as a trade off maybe.


Back on topic, Styles: Yeah, it wasn't the instruments, he sang them. I always thought something was fishy about the Lonesome Drifter when he sang.

I was never stung in an unnatural manner. The things are 6ft. long and they would twist and roll to get fully extended. I saw no problem with them what so ever.

When I heard Streets of New Reno, I immediately thought of The Smothers Brothers. Their brief comedy version of the song is something I grew up with (thanks mom & dad). :D

And yes, I think Sawyer did a fine job of singing.
