And it's still done WAY better than ME.

Disagree there, there aren't really any nested options you pretty much get the same response in FO4 no matter what, at least what you said in ME had consequences.

The dialogue in FO4 is idiotic, and it makes your character sound idiotic.


I find it honestly hilarious that you said that ME is a game with consequences.

I mean it's true, but they aren't consequences to what you do.

I mean in this world there's tech schools that teach people how to create synthetic people that can murder people so it wouldn't be too far-fetched to have a law school that teaches people how to dish out some Enclave-style law & order

If you're talking about what I think you're talking about, that I was the first time I really looked around and said "well, shit." in FO4.

Of the two companions worth having, one of them is the same species as power armor and the other is an intellectual and thus would likely know how to operate one anyway.

To be fair, it doesn't look that hard to operate. Just crank the back until it opens, step in, auto close? press a button?, walk around and shoot things.

I may not want to play a drooling imbecile or a wasteland Nazi, but I want the option to play as a drooling imbecile or a wasteland Nazi, dammit! And I wish they'd included skill, perk, and SPECIAL checks in dialogue, too. One of my favorite moments in New Vegas was successfully tricking a protectron into leaving you alone by shouting "Ice cream!" with seven luck.

Recovered pre-War documents suggest that only wizards were qualified to pilot power armor, on the grounds that they were the only ones capable of getting out of it.

There are like 4 or 5 companions that fit that definition.

pardon
Where must we go, we who wander this wasteland, in search for our better selves?
In Egypt's sandy silence, all alone,
Stands a gigantic Leg, which far off throws
The only shadow that the Desert knows:—
"I am great OZYMANDIAS," saith the stone,
"The King of Kings; this mighty City shows
"The wonders of my hand." The City's gone,
Nought but the Leg remaining to disclose
The site of this forgotten Babylon.

We wonder, and some Hunter may express
Wonder like ours, when thro' the wilderness
Where London stood, holding the Wolf in chace,
He meets some fragment huge, and stops to guess
What powerful but unrecorded race
Once dwelt in that annihilated place.
