A line of dialogue might be insufficient to judge the writing as a whole.

 

[orcinator]

Signs point to "bad FPS but hey look there's a stat check here and there"
Maybe they'll surprise us but I seriously doubt it given every game Obsidian made by themselves.

 

[santino27]

real dialogue choices

altho the phrasing is weird

The line that's already been spoken (You're powerful free with...) could come straight out of Firefly... space/western pastiche.

music was cancer
Someone has been playing Bulletstorm

It's Danny Brown. Show some goddamn respect

This will be a Space Western. The idea is starting to grow on me.

For me, just not having a voiced protagonist is an incline

 

[RK47]

Some ideas to throw around:
Companions are nice, but isn't it time to add the ability to swap control to your companion?
At the very least that will allow players to experience a different playstyle without rerolling.

E.g
I took charismatic pistol guy and bring along a sniper companion.
Prior to engaging, I switch control to the companion. And snipe a few guys off while ordering my protag to 'stand ground.'
At least that'd be something than Boone doing the whole 'the last thing you'll never see' routine over n over again in FNV.
Or maybe bringing a super hacking guy lets you take control of him to sneak around and hack a turret instead of relying on retarded AI to do proper pathfinding.

It is good to see that writing in this game lives up to the highest standards of the game industry.

"You're are powerful free with that tongue of yours" is almost as good as "So you fight the Good Fight with your voice on Galaxy News Radio"!

Yeah its weird at first look but its written for VA. I can imagine hearing it & it being not weird

 

[deuxhero]

so basically you trade a permanent (?) debuff per for a free beneficial perk. i hope this really encourage specialization

The idea is interesting, but I'm pretty sure the implementation will be shit.

 

[Life of the Party]

Monsters called Raptidons sounds a bit cheesy! Makes me think of this

But then I remember that film had this

So by extrapolation this game will be a masterpiece.

Obsidian cannot into hair.

How about bushes?

Obsidian, Obsidian never changes. They finally got the chance to make their dream AAA game and it's a cross between Fallout 4, Borderlands and No man's sky. What a banal, boring art style.

 

[Sykar]

Women characters look a bit

Where's my waifu ?

Turn off your PC and go out into the real world.

Oh and clean your room.

I love the idea of post-Microsoft Obsidian making an RPG about the original settlers being pushed to the fringes by a rapacious corporation. RPGs have been waiting for their Shakespeare, and may still wait, but at least they have their Solzhenitsyns!

You're powerful free with that tongue of yours.

I'm pretty sure you like cocks.

[Intimidate 20] You going to do something about it?

 

[Oracsbox]

So will it have the fashion and combat of Starcrash ?

I share your sentiment. However, IHaveHugeNick is right in that they guessed right what the general audience might like now, especially given the complete disaster which was Fallout 76. Chances are high that the game will sell very well. Feargus should be happy.

 

[Seethe]

FreeKaner what does the prophecy say about this game. Will it be a dumpsterfire?

Spot the tranny.

Spoiler

It's blonde

Who are all of this... creatures?

 

[Goral]

For those who missed Cain's and Boyarsky's intro (it's nothing worth watching but it should be something holy for Troika fanboys):

 

[Whisper]

Watched the trailer. Same old shit. They ran out of fresh ideas? Will pass on it.
