Or use the day 1 mod that disables the player voice :V

Then the day 7 mod that includes elongated text boxes ala New vegas and F3.

Then use the day 10 mod that replaces the player voice with out-of-context voice clips from the Macho Man.

I WAS annoyed that the character will be voiced, but then I realised that I can still make him/her look how I want AND choose from one of 'a thousand' names for them (apparently the 1,000 most popular first names in the world) which will also be spoken.

Okay, I'm not American - that accent might break my immersion a little - but I can always just pretend I'm a naturalised American citizen hailing from another country originally.

It's no biggie.

The thousand names was referring to the procedural baby that is made after character creation and presumably does not survive the bombs.
So don't worry, you can still call your character "POOPLORD EXTREME", if you want to.

...and the fact that a thousand of the most popular names were voiced by the characters, so if you pick one of the names people will say it. Codsworth, for example.

Beth just sucks at everything but world building. Let us hope for mods.  However, maybe FO4 will break the trend? Let us hope.

The world building is pretty much the part they're the worst at. Hence Kidville, Teenage Vampyre Gang and Village-upon-Bridge, Posh Upper Class Tower, and all the other things about F3 that makes no sense at all.

Allow me to rephrase that, then, they suck at everything. Truthfully speaking, the only appeal I really ever see in their games are the mods. The plot is bad, the dialogue is bad, the immersion is bad, the gameplay is bad, the engine is bad, the graphics are meh, so on and so forth. I can't understand why everyone loves them as a studio so much, probably the nostalgiagoggles of the Elder Scrolls days of yore.

Xpost from the WTF thread, but without the link because mobile, apparently Fallout Shelter is now making more money than the candy crush BS.

[SOLDIER First]

How many days has it been, now...?

[forsaken1111]

I'd love to play it. Have they said when it will be out on Android?

I probably won't spend any money on it though.

Hopefully in a few months[/quote]

Though the fact that it's been making a few million each day since release might be incentive to get it out sooner, while the hype is still fresh.

[forsaken1111]

By then I doubt I'll remember to check.

Then again I don't spend money on mobile games, as I said, so I'm probably not the intended audience.

I don't think Beth games suck as a whole. Open world dungeon runner action games are just damned fun by default and if you look at any of those games at my steam you will see I have spent over a hundred hours in all of them. But still, if you were to look at any individual aspect of the games you will find that they are shoddy and not particularly refined. Hence, I think, why people think Bethgames are so much potential and so little deliverance. It often feels as if they had so much going that they couldn't really commit to any thing.

I'm looking forward to F4. I'm not sure I will have a computer that can play it even at the lowest settings in autumn, but if I did I think I would buy it immediately or very soon, even if they do something horrible like monetise mods. But I also have no problem speaking about things that I think was bad about the old games or what think will be bad about this one.

No it wasn't. Where did you get that idea? It's very clearly for the main character, thus Codsworth repeatedly calling the main character by their name.

It's only for Codsworth, though.
