I finally became a cancerous pier of shit and preordered fallout 4.

But I also found an interesting perspective on it; that if you would buy a game, play it and enjoy it regardless of the state it comes out in, or the reviews it gets on release, you may as well pre order it. And that's how I feel for Halo 5 and Fallout 4, so eh.

I cant argue with progress, just you.

Also they better mention the NCR/Legion war somewhere in the game. .....the bear needs influence in the Commonwealth.
It's 2600 miles away and FO4 is apparently taking place before/during the time of FONV.

So uhh... no. It wouldn't be relevant in a world that was reset.
Was there ever a canon ending to FONV? Or is it just something that will never be continued? :c
I don't think there is a canon ending. I always go Independent. It probably won't be mentioned in detail in future games.

They're all the canon ending.

Now go wrap your mind around that.
But but my small little mind cant handle that.

Fallout 4 confirmed to have over 111,000 lines of dialogue, more than Fallout 3 and Skyrim combined.
http://uk.ign.com/articles/2015/09/04/fallout-4-has-more-lines-of-dialog-than-fallout-3-and-skyrim-combined

By comparison, Fallout 3 had 40,000, Fallout: New Vegas had 65,000 and Skyrim had 60,000. Over 13,000 of the lines in Fallout 4 belong to Brian T. Delaney and Courtenay Taylor, who voice the protagonist.

Bethesda's been good to me with their DLC for fallout.

If I get the game I won't get the pass, best to buy it on a case by case basis.

That was my favourite, although when I think about it damn near all of them were great.
It might just have been the uh... contrast... with Dead Money.

I mean at the time I absolutely fucking hated Dead Money but after I'd finished it and read that there was a subtle bit of moral irony behind the end vault I hated it a little less.

How if you tried to leave the vault with all of the goodies you would just die over and over and over and over again. You could cheat or glitch sure, but trying to leave legitimately was borderline impossible so it was something of a lesson in letting it go and not falling victim to greed >_>

This is the way the world ends. Not with a bang but a whimper.

A new feature to the series is the ability to build settlements and buildings. Players can select and scrap objects and structures for resources and building supplies, and use them to build their own structures ranging from fully-decoratable houses, towers, bars, labs, and more. The player can also construct more than one settlement across the Commonweatlh, and can send brahmin caravans in-between their towns. Towns can be powered with working electricity, using a dynamic power line system, as well as equipped water pumps and crops/gardens to keep a steady income of food and drink. Merchants and non-player characters can inhabit players' towns and help keep the settlements running as a community. Players can build various defenses around their settlements, such as turrets, guard towers, and traps, to defend the settlements, as they can be raided and attacked.
I came.

I hope the base building doesn't take over the game and is optional. I'm more into exploring but I'll still give the building a go.

Loving the assault rifle, too. It's got such a sweet retro look.

They probably put it in there to appeal to payers who tend to choose RTSs over RPGs.

Yeah, I'm liking the designs of a lot of these weapons. The Laser Musket is pretty cool.

I think Todd Howard said during E3 that it was entirely optional and you wouldn't be forced into doing it.

My bank card expires in October so hopefully my pre-order doesn't cancel itself when I change my card over. Spent a good few hours securing that Pip Boy.
