  • Oh, I've seen those people before. Hard to take them seriously when they know nothing about the lore.

    Sorry, I just encountered some people on here a few months ago who were vehemently arguing that the bombs fell in the 20th century :P

  • Well, I've preordered.

    I mind sound like an asshole for saying this in a hype thread, but I actually thought the wait flew by really fast. I pretty much completely forgot about the game between E3 and about a week ago. Kinda odd, since I was hyped about Skyrim for ages before it dropped. I'll just chalk it up to mind-numbing minimum wage labor.

    Will probably get hate for this but I'm a bit disappointed there are apparently 7 male companions and 2 female ones, not including mr handies or dogmeat.

    I'm seeing some varying reports on that.

    One guy claims it works similar to FO3 and NV

    Yep it kills RPing. I was hoping it wasn't true, but reading through the thread it seems it was confirmed by a player whom got the game earl

  • Doesn't really matter, at least it's better than the five I originally thought we would get.

    Plus, a lot of people won't even travel with a companion.

  • I forgot about it till a month ago, now I can't stop thinking about it.

    Yeah, I probably won't. I used companions in NV because Obsidian's character writing is so good, but outside of that I've always preferred being the lone wanderer sort in Fallout games. I'll take Dogmeat though.

  • The only reason I would have to travel with them is: They're invincible and you can romance them.

    There is only 2? Seriously? Jeez

  • Same here. That and my Fallout 3 companions tended to have high mortality rates.

    Stupid exploding cars!

  • Yes. Atleast according to the wikia page.

  • Damn, I was hoping you'd keep the before edit. It was a grand comment.

  • I changed it because I know it would have brought forth people complaining and saying how wrong I am or something like that and I could really deal with out someone going on some rant or speech about equality or something of the sort.

  • But that was why it was so great! Flog complains about the "sexism" in companions and you respond with a funny and honestly witty remark to it. Oh well, I still thought it was pretty good. True too.

  • Oh gosh, she's so perfect.

  • Just a lack of variety really. lots of human males and people who look like human males (the AIs). We've never had a female ghoul companion before, etc, just lack of variety is my main problem.

  • I said nothing about sexism? Also barely complained, just said I was 'a bit disappointed'.

  • She's easily one of my favorite VG characters.

  • I do tend to exaggerate.

    Nor I, I'm hardly going to cancel my pre-order! Just a minor quibble.

  • After previously looking at quite a few leaked videos, it seems that companions will actually comment on certain dialogue choices you choose during a conversation - which mainly depends on how you treat the npc you're talking to, of course. And loading screens are similar to Skyrim, you can rotate the item or model you see slowly spinning around.

  • Saw this on another forum, had to share because everything about it screamed badass.

    Awesome Rap! Dan is so great.

    enter link description here Dan Bull has released a rap.

  • Welp, it's happening. I dreamed that I was playing Fallout all night tonight. Woke up happy that glorious experience was still awaiting me. It's preloading rn on the PS4.

    Tomorrow night.

    Actually, the amount of hype I'm feeling could be hazardous to my health, I'll probably have a breakdown if it disappoints me. But that's impossible, so I'll be fine :)

  • Be careful around the youtubes lads. I've seen let's plays going up already.

  • My name is on the list confirmed not to work. My brother's is on neither. The worst part is that on the confirmed list, there's one name that is basically my name without one of the letters.

    And Atticus works, but no NICK?!?!?!? What?!?!?

  • Stay away from the steam forum, not sure if i complained about that. but spoilers in topics. Also anyone want to discuss builds.

    So far mine is, I don't plan on upping my stats with training in my first run, unless the game forces you to do so.

  • I still can't decide if I'm going to be male or female. I want to try female because I never usually do and I like the voice actress, but now I know I can use my name.

    I'm gonna end up flipping a coin at this point
