But we wouldn't have gotten the great title if I hadn't. But fine I'll leave it alone for now. Don't want to derail the thread with argument.

Man, Tales from the Borderlands is just so awesome and funny. I was laughing hard about the Accountant shootout scene in Episode 4.

How is stating a fact bullying? :lol
Cause you appreciate that such a niche title that you enjoy was translated and made available to you?
Truth.
He got a title out of it? Hahaha, haven't seen that yet.
This.
I would be, if I was on mobile and had seen it.
Lucky stiff. Though I did have one just sell for 2.xx which felt like a miracle, as I thought it would just sit on the market forever.... still, it's not $8.

maybe right trigger shows you more dialogue options and left trigger shows you previously spoken dialogueIf anyone wondered what's the talk about the dialogue system in Fallout 4:

ONE OF THE BEST GAMES EVER.
That's the one you have gotten yourself into.
If the game crashes, just stay determinated and keep going. It's really very rewarding experience with tons to do.

Should the thread title be updated now cos of the CoD news?

Maybe we can get that S out of there as well. Even if it is grammatically correct.
For an RPG I have no interest of having stuff, even the dialogue, streamlined.

It might have. Despite having a demo for one, I know some people kinda ignored it because of the graphics and said the price was too high. Then another chunk said it's because it's a "Tumblr game" or something silly like that.
Not sure myself, as I had no interest in it.

oh come on the Fallout 3 intro was a drag you know you wanna streamline those parts

I mean, it's not impossible that this is just a tutorial/not so important NPC so there's not much to talk about with him, but I'm scared that they really cut back on the dialogue across the board. I don't think the fanbase will take well to that.If anyone wondered what's the talk about the dialogue system in Fallout 4:
Look closely, she's made of fish.
Yeah, not having skill check dialog choices is going to make me sad.

If anyone wondered what's the talk about the dialogue system in Fallout 4:
I called this out from the very first clip
http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=167944517&postcount=1887
Not that I was the only one
Okay, I can put the crafting behind me but let's talk about the dialogue wheel.
Kinda crazy how they have not 1 but 4 low INT answers for you to pick. I wonder how many there are for high INT characters, possibly more than you have buttons on the controller!
No wait, it's the same exact problem that this implementation always has: you pick a word and then your character says or might not say something in lines of the word or two you chose. I am playing Witcher 3 right now and it's bothering me to no end: sometimes what the character says is even exactly as long as the description text but just said differently. Wow much dynamic interaction. At least in Life Is Strange you can rewind back when the option doesn't do anything you expected it to do, unlike in Telltale games.
edit: going back to that thread, holy shit at the amount of denial

Not really.
People seem to think top sellers for an hour means the game sold like gangbusters, when in actuality most of the people that probably really want it buy it then and then the rest of the sells will be in sales months and years to come. Then again I guess it depends on the game.
Oh yeah you are right. That's a bit more terrifying lol.
That's my thoughts too.
Great article though I knew of most of it already.
About 20 hours in myself and I can really see how much care went into the writing in this game.

How is it grammatically correct? I'm asking for a friend.
Still hoping that this is a parody joke ala Saints Row, but if it isn't, yeah, that could be very bad for the core fanbase to swallow.
Sorry, Obsidian is booked in my soul for Bloodlines II., they'll be busy with that.
If anyone wondered what's the talk about the dialogue system in Fallout 4:
Yep, I'm going to hold off until there's a collected edition with all DLC. This is scary.
Obsidian need to come back and bring a fuller Hardcore mode with them. Derrick is probably livid right now.
i mean, whatever, it's bethesda writing, might as well have as little of it as possibleIf anyone wondered what's the talk about the dialogue system in Fallout 4:

Most of these games have niche appeal, are ports/rereleases of old games or are simply... not all that great - so I think it's completely normal that they're not selling super well and that's certainly not oversaturation, "Being a Japanese game" is not enough to sell well on Steam, and that's ok.Remember when japanese games sold on steam?
Hey, I think Grandia II and Mugen Souls did well, all things considered.
The oversaturation is real.

Are we sure this isn't like Mass Effect were it gives you a rough idea of the phrase and the voice line is more expanded? All the characters are voiced so it would make sense.

Haven't they said this has the most dialogue of any of their games? All of those lines have to be somewhere, lol.

The problem's the amount of choices, not that people think they'll actually only say the one word mentioned in the UI. Though that vagueness is a side concern for many.
MMBosstones86

Those choices don't necessarily mean less dialogue. Each choice may have a few sentences based in that direction.
Having less choices is a bummer though...
It's possible sure. Personally it does leave me a lot less interested if it is throughout the game. 4 way dialogue systems are fine for some games, where that is the expectation I have going in. For Fallout though, it's contradictory to everything I know of the game.
Maybe you can use the bumpers to get another 4 or 8? Maybe the responses are intentionally extremely short so that you don't have full control over dialogue and it is based on your characters previous actions and determined mentality? These are things I'm hoping for at this point
Indeed.
Mid-game I was having a CTD roughly every 5 minutes, especially when replaying a chapter to complete a sidequest.
But the game is so awesome that I pulled through and 100% it, and I regret nothing.
