It might have something like ME's [Investigate] option though.

Besides, I'm expecting this is more for console compatibility and making voiced dialogue somewhat easier.
What causes concern for me with this is mods that add dialogue. They won't have voice (not the same anyway, unless they use cut content or whatever), which will be in heavy contrast with the main game.

Ah well. We'll have to wait and see how it goes. For now, I'm interested in any changes to what the SPECIALs effect.
Eh, mods that added NPC dialogue in both NV and FO3 didn't have spoken lines most of the times so it's something that won't bother many people. Just turn on the subtitles I guess.

Either that or horrendous amateur voiceacting. Which, to be honest, I kind of want.

Actually, there've been a fair number of FO/TES mods with fully voiced questlines and companions at a fairly high level of quality, so I'm confident that there'll be the same for FO4 given time.

I think, with the increase of Let's Players since the release of Oblivion, there are more people armed with good quality microphones to potentially do voice work for mods. I know there are a few voiced companion mods for Skyrim (though I haven't heard the voice acting myself) and there's some voice acting done for the Armada 3 mod. It's a big hurdle to overcome but I think things are getting there.

Project Brazil is pretty high quality. Guys making it are having to do a bit of travel to get all the voice actors they need, though.

NV had some wonderful voice actors. Like Niner, my favorite companion ever.

It's not really the NPCs having no dialogue that I'm worried about, but the glaringly obvious "this is mod content" vibe you'll get if suddenly your surroundings or your character go mute. It just breaks immersion. It's cool in FO3 and NV, I read everything anyway. But trying to imagine it in Dragon Age (minus Origins) or Mass Effect?

Anyways, as I said, better to wait it out, maybe it won't be a problem at all.

Yess, very amateur voice acting can be quite charming.

Yess, very amateur voice acting can be quite charming.

It has to do with the more natural aspect of amateurs. Hollywood has a very artificial grandness about how they act that is completely contrary to how human beings act that often shines through whether they are being serious or wacky.

Also its nice to have some variety. I mean there are a LOT of npcs in skyrim who use the same voice and it can be kind of jarring to hear belethor's voice coming from a random guy you pass in solitude.
