He's already got power armor after only a few hours of gameplay. FFS.

So stupid. (Them, not you.) I related so much better to my Skyrim characters because they let me project my own motivations onto them. Somehow I imagined they'd learned their lesson after "You care deeply about Liam Neeson ... shut up! Yes you do!!" didn't really fly; but instead of sticking with what worked in Skyrim - the blank slate - now they've compounded their mistake by voicing the protagonist in F4. Not only am I supposed to be invested in finding some kid I'm told I have, I'm also supposed to be excited to play as Blando Everyface, the Character With No Character.
Agreed. As horrible as the story was in Skyrim, you could essentially ignore it; with enough mods (*ahem* Requiem), you could actually have a little fun with the gameplay. I don't know if I'll be able to scrape enough of the Todd Howard out of Fallout 4 to get any kind of enjoyment from it.

watching him play makes me understand why games are streamlined until even braindead moutbreathers can play it.
and it still isn't dumbed down enough, amazing, really.
Nothing wrong with having a baby in a story. My problem is their naked desperation in trying to motivate you by appealing to your familial instincts. See this baby? It's voiced by Jason Statham! And it's your baby! And now it's gone!! Go find it!! You care dammit!! Just give me a situation and let me decide whether and why I care. That's part of what a fucking western RPG is supposed to be about. Leave the premade PCs and their heartstring backstories to JRPGs.

I'd care a lot if my baby had Jason Statham's voice.

There was speculation to that effect awhile ago, that because the suits now have finite energy supplies Bethesda figures they're okay to hand over earlier. Do you use it now, or wait a bit for a tougher situation?

He'd be right, should the rest of the game have any depth to it. Of that, however, he will not convince me -- I've been listening to too much Fleetwood Mac lately.

I know some of you have seen the entire plot of the game (Basically Fallout 3 except now you're the daddy)
But don't worry.. the magic of watching Dogmeat jump off an elevator is seeing it for yourself!!!!

In practice though you're gonna end up with more resources than you know what to do with, if not be able to manufacture the resource outright.

Oh yeah, so many ways to play. You can either mindlessly kill enemies or pretend you're playing the sims.

Your Story™ will differ from other people's stories in that you might visit the locations and kill the enemies in a slightly different order to your friends.

I'm literally and actually puking out black substance which I guess is pure hate.
Of course, there are those of us who refuse to ever drink a Potion of Light Healing, because I might need it more "later"!
Not that I care about Power Armor anyway, only serves to dehumanize my awesome character. Oh wait.

There are even perks built around the Fusion Cores powering them. Remember that bit in T3 where the T-850 ejects a fuel cell and turns it into a grenade? Yeah.
People were talking about it on page 187-188. May have some references before then but those were the first ones I found in search.

Well then in an alternate universe 1:29 and onward is going to be you with that perk.
Because turning previously stable cars into nukes wasn't enough.
