Just saying, you should all lower your expectations for Fallout 4 - you are only setting yourselves up for disappointment.
I'm not putting 100% faith in it it being an amazing game, but I'm still excited for it since I love the series and I've wanted another fallout game since I replayed 3 years ago.

Same here. Fallout is one of my favorite series of all time. But you gotta be realistic.

I am being realistic, but I'm also excited because I'm bored as hell because I've beaten every game I own a million times, and Bethesda games have a lot of content so I know that will keep me content.

I'm waiting to hear how the speech stuff works. I'm annoyed they put that minimalistic radial system in when they previous text stuff was just fine.

Hopefully it isn't too bad, but it'll be a major drawback if the fuck up a fundamental component of the series. This is literally the only thing I want spoiled for me.

You'll probably enjoy NV more, it does most things better than 3 does

Well hopefully Fallout 4 will take all the good stuff from New Vegas, and I'm sure they listened about what made it great.

I hope the Vertiberds replace fast travel entirely and does away with the old fast travel entirely.

Yeah, I'll probably just play NV, too bad my current character is not high enough level to do Old World Blues. Cause I would love to play me some Old World Blues.

Old fast travel is still in the game.

Damn. I mean it's not required so it's not too bad, but I just think fast travel like that kills the point of the game.

Yeah, it's a bit of a horrible temptation for laziness.

It's better to not fast travel, but equally when you are slogging forwards and backwards to move a lot of gear it can be horrendous without it <.<

Super Irish · November 04, 2015, 12:16:23 PM

Damn, speech checks have returned back to the % chances again. Only now, it's colour coded, so I can't even tell what the exact chance is.

Now I'm just saying, but because I'm psychotically paranoid - I'm always expecting it.

Yeah but now I can just save and keep reloading until I pass the speech check :')

I'm going to force myself to not reload if I fail the check

It's a shame they had to go back to percentages, but I suppose with the removal of skills I dunno how else they'd do it

Honestly they could just do it with Special points. Like a speech check would become x/10 Charisma required

It's the same as pick pocketing someone in the game really. You have a certain percentage you will succeed or fail. It's up to you, the player, whether you'll honor the outcome/consequences and keep going, or re-load the save.

At least that's how I see it.
