charwo Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 This game is a disgrace. Is anyone working on/planning any total conversion or overhauls like Enderal or Requiem for Skyrim? Someone ambitious want to redo the atrocious writing of the main quest? SOmeone want to do a 2077 game where you fight through the apocalypse? I've heard of Fallout Cascadia and Lone Star, but it'd be nice to know if there's something more Boston related on the horizon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charwo Posted September 19, 2016 Author Share Posted September 19, 2016 Well, I 'm going to have to in any case. It was four years of work to make Enderal, so I'm not expecting anything right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RS13 Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 (edited) I am working on an overhaul of the dialogue. I'm trying to give the player more bad or neutral dialogue options, smooth over some inconsistencies in plot and tone and maybe add a dash of humor here and there. Unfortunately, there's not much that can be done about NPC responses. Yes, I can splice together new dialogue, but it's rarely enough to build whole new ways to resolve quests. There is no ETA on the mod. That's nowhere near Enderal ambitious, but it's what I'm working on. Edited September 19, 2016 by RS13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will tell you that the writing was SO BAD on the main quest I will take an-unvoiced version if necessary. A word of advice, you may be a better writer than me, but when I tried to make a compelling story out of Fallout 3 (to hone my writing skills), I found I could only put so much lipstick on a pig. 3 and 4 are so violent, so utterly consumed with combat and destruction it was hard to make time to flesh out the characters and create a good story. I think Fallout 4 will prove as difficult. If you could add in perk checks and some bonding conversations with Father, that'd be awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to make this sprawling New Vegas-esque dialogue system, but it's just not feasible. The first father conversation is one of the ones I intend to drastically revise. I make no promises about how it will be revised, but it will be noticeably different if and when I ever get to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EveningTide Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 While I'm not working on a "total conversion" I'm working on something in the game that is rather weak, but it'll take a long time to complete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
