First up is the news that Fallout 4 will include 12 companions who can join you on your journey. You can even romance them, regardless of their gender.
(－‸ლ)
I'm getting Bioware flashbacks.

Couple that with the dialogue wheel and I think we know what games they've been playing researching.

wow 12 whole companions
that's nearly double what we got in nv

[ShoesandHats]

Oh jeez, that explains why they're featuring the protagonist and Dogmeat together so prominently in the game's marketing.

Joke in poor taste aside, I'd rather have the option of doing that (not with the dog, of course) than not have it. That said, I doubt it'll add much depth to the companion system.

[Gunner-Chan]

I figure they're just doing it since people are going to mod it or write about it anyway. Someone made a fucking mod where you could get the dumb girl who to be a ghoul and killed herself in radiation in new vegas as a companion, and even romance her. People will want to romance and fuck nearly anything.

Not to mention power armor mechanics and animation very nearly ripped from Mech Assault 2 (with prettier models, I admit), and heavy weapon third-person cam animations that are almost visually identical to Halo 3 (yes I know that there are only a few ways to carry a heavy weapon, but it even includes the slowed-down walking.)

[SOLDIER First]

Are you able to do a light jog while carrying a heavy minigun?

[NullForceOmega]

I don't have power armor, so no.  Though that would depend heavily on several factors, with the large minigun that FO4 uses, no one without power armor is going to be moving quickly, but with an actual military minigun or microgun, yes, I could move at actual combat speed.

[Elfeater]

Can you romance dogmeat? Thats the real question.

[SOLDIER First]

Well, they did say every companion was bisexual...

Guys I know you're joking but toady was JUST here because someone reported us arguing or something. Dogfucking may not be the best topic right now?

[Graknorke]

It's not a dogfucking thread, just a dogfucking tangent. The rules are far from being violated.

[ShoesandHats]

It's a crass joke, but a joke nonetheless.

Any word on whether there'll be official footage of the demo?

[Teneb]

I believe Toady was here because people were getting antagonistic towards each other. As long as everyone is being sarcastic about the Dogmeat romance, I don't really see a problem.

EDIT: And... ninja'd.

For me the most annoying guard thing in Skyrim was the comments on your skills and equipment. It's an impressive feature that obviously took a lot of writing and VA effort for something that most people just ignore, but its get grating the 50th time you hear "Favah da bow, eh? I'm moah of a sword mahn myself" or "Da best offense ees a good defense, amirite?"

Or all guards accusing you of being a cutpurse because your sneak is high.

I think the best thing about it is that, barring weapon degradation, INFINITE POWER-MUSKET

you can see them losing ammo when they wind, so no

Interesting, it makes more sense that you have to cycle the powercells (like cocking a shotgun) rather than slowly twirling a small crank twice gives enough power to vaporize a person

The rules weren't being violated before and someone still felt the need to push report. Feel free to ignore me then.
