Dude…Where’s my car?
Sweet! What does mine say?

Damn, that’s crazy…accurate.
Yes
Playing F4 made me realise more than ever that the draw of the Fallout universe for me is the ability to uncover hidden dialogue options by tweaking your skills the right way.
I never finished it and it makes me sad.
Finishing F4 wasn’t worth it, imo
Not many players know this, but you can unlock a secret alternate ending to Fallout 4 by pressing Alt+F4 while playing
You have to do it right before the end, though.
Yeah I went with the science dudes and didn’t even get to subjugate the wasteland with a robot army afterwards. Lame.
Bro you missed the point
You already did that!
The MITechnocracy rules the area. They control everything but those weirdos in Goodneighbor, and those guys are too busy getting high.
Yeah but you’re never really in charge like they say you are.
Eh, that’s just the state of things when the Tech Fuhrer declares his heir and dies within a relatively short period, there’s still a political struggle that would happen after the events of the game.
I choose to believe my version hacks/gains the allegiance of the Coursers and murders his enemies in their sleep. Knowing Bethesda though, if that end does end up being canon the opposite will happen.
there’s still a political struggle that would happen after the events of the game.
Yeah, I wanted to participate in that.

What a save!

I wonder if they could fix that by having 4 options that align with whatever archetype you’ve selected.
Then you don’t need “ridiculously good” “meh” “ridiculously evil” “… Just continue the story” options
Pick if you want to play ridiculously good, meh, or ridiculously evil at the start of the game, or if you want to be a passive observer. They’d have to write 3x more player dialogue, but that’s really not that much (have the responses barely change, you know they barely change anyways)
That blows up the conversation trees by 4 times how many archetypes there are. You can do the smart thing like bg3 or fallout new Vegas and add options to the more generic ones based on archetypes
I tried to address that by 1) having the silent protagonist option where the story unfolds as it would without the flourish before the canned response so now it’s only 3x as much, and 2) all of the response dialog is the same because they were going to reply the same way as they would to the good or bad option anyways.
This will triple the amount of PC options that need to be “written” but the rest of the writing (NPC dialog) doesn’t have to change at all, and that’s where most of the writing goes anyways.
△ Ok O Ok X Yeah □ You’re right
In theory my dialog choices are better and more plentiful, but in practice that timer is real short and so my answer is to always stall, “Um… hmm.” Telltale hard mode out here
You should try it with lowered perception (hearing issues). You spend half the timer just trying to figure out what they said before you can even begin to craft a response.
