Shit, now I understand how happy I am cause I'm not a picky person.

I'm just glad that the game will come out and I will play it.

The narrator sounds like he's mocking the script. No one sounds like that. Other than that, it's really cool.
I dunno, that's the same person used for General Vargas throughout the game. He pretty much just sounds like that. :P

The intro looks and sounds like a Nuka Break episode. Not a good thing, but whatever. It's the game that really matters.

I thought similar, although I didn't think it a bad thing, people really like Nuka Break. And I heard the second season wasn't as shit as the first once they got away from the Fallout 3 shit vibe.

I like the intro with all it's flaws, because it has a B-Movie style, just like all the Post Apoc. movies from the 80s -90s. But Vargas should have a little more greyed beard and hair, he looks simply to young, also Angela. Also one neat thing is the 13 on the prisoner's back.

Intro sucked. Made me not want to play the game at all. Either shoot the prisoners or take them in. Lame ass speech for the burial. Have a party, tell stories, and actually honor the person if you give a shit. Fuck platitudes.

Existence is cruelty.

:hmmm:

It's a wartime funeral. Their lands are under siege and they are in the middle of an active campaign. The PCs have to go fight immediately after the speech. Should they have had a festival too?

I liked the fact that they used an FMV intro, but the narrator indeed tries too much and the script was bland and uninspired. It fails to excite me in any way about the upcoming game. Dammit, while the game looks fine, there's nothing about it I've seen so far that is more than just... OK. Let's hope that in the end it will be more than the sum of its parts.

I still don't find it convincing. Maybe it works better for the character in game. I'm waiting for the release to play it.
