  • CDPR knows how to write a story and convo. Bethesda writes like theve never had a normal conversation

    Cait: a long monologue about her hardships the game: you are carrying too much! you can't run! I died

    I got a feeling this is gonna blow up, its in my feed after only 5 hours and I'm not even a subscriber. Great job dude.

    Fem V's Voice Acting also was just one of the best performances i have ever heard in a game, she really nails the emotions.

    I preferred 1.0 Cyberpunk 2077 to any version of FO4 all day, every day, despite both of them having absolutely terrible 1.0 releases. The reason is simple: It was clear CDPR were upset with themselves and their 1.0 release, upset with the cut content, yet the content there was clearly hand-tailed and filled with a genuine care for the spirit of the franchise. FO4 is just terrible joke after terrible joke, with atomic-bomb related songs being the only thing to have survived and no one in the world picks up their trash after 210 years.

    I don't think blank slates have to be you, they can be any character you want to put on them. Like the table tops, you could make a character like you, or unlike you.
  • Its more fun when you try to play your V like youre actually Johnny, silently influencing V's conversation nuances and shows how he starts to influence everything as the chip issue progresses. They kinda do this with the cigarette option which is fun.

    It’s because v wasn’t meant to be us. V is v we’re just like Johnny along for the ride able to choose and change some outcomes Nate thou is ment to be us. Not Nate. The actions taken are ours yet Nate dos the talking.

    Naming the Witcher chapter "Winds Howling" was truly an inspired choice.

    0/10 video. Too compelling to fall asleep to. Now it's 1am and all I want to do is download Cyberpunk >:(
  • @reconghost5
    Oh my god. The way you cut in Nora getting her skull ventilated when Nate was like "I don't think I'd be happier with anyone else"
  • Cause Emil Pagliarulo is an awful writer and the best thing he's done for the Fallout series is unintentionally make Nate a war criminal
  • God damn, I only just realized how much thought the writers put into that first optional dialogue when you romance Panam. Her struggle is always between family and keeping herself emotionally invulnerable. At this point in the story you are part of her family but she has also developed feelings for you, so when you tell her what is going on, her first reaction is to tell you that you are family and nothing can tear you apart, but she realizes, that that would also make her vulnerable so she interrupts herself to restart the sentence in a more „matter of fact“ way. Clearly still offering help, but also scared of emotional commitment.
  • To me, I believe it's due to the fact of how they're written. V is, while a vehicle for the player yes, is still shown to have their own character outside of what you, the player, input. Whereas Nate or Nora, while there is a bit of that, is still a blank slate
  • @reina70000
    I died at the “not you” to River cause he is LITERALLY the worst to romance.
  • @09spidy
    I'm loving the well deserved comeback that Cyberpunk 2077 is enjoying, every video, article, or comment has turned from extreme negativity at release, to complete and utter adoration. Hopefully, CDPR have learned from this experience, and can knock it outta the park with their upcoming projects.

    I think another big part is that in FO4 the characters just feel lifeless to talk to as well, I mean they don't show a lot of expression or move they're bodies a lot where as in Cyberpunk there is lots of little details like subtle facial expressions or slight twangs in the voice with they way they deliver they're lines, the characters just feel more like actual people to talk too.
