[quote=@Thayr] Could be interesting, but to be honest I have a few questions. [list][*] Do you anticipate our characters being natives or not to the local commonwealth? [*] If they can be natives, would you allow our characters to begin as members of a faction? [*] Where would the applicable starting location(s) be? [*] Do you anticipate keeping our characters together throughout the game? [*] Are you running the game with the aesthetics of Fallout 4 in mind (As far as Assault Rifles, tanks, Combat Shotguns go) or with Fallout 3 / New Vegas in mind? [*] What sort of Super Mutants do you have in mind?[/list] [/quote] No problem. 1) While local is preferred, if you have a good enough backstory then you don't have to be strictly from the area. With the previous NCC being a beacon of stability and relative prosperity prior to everything hitting the fan, people came from all over to make some caps or make a new life for themselves. In the time since, mercenaries and wandering soldiers have likely also came through looking to side with one power bloc or warlord. Of course you can also start as a faction but I'm going to come out and say that the BoS isn't going to have a large role, they're mostly sticking to their firebase. The others are more open though. 2) On starting location and cohesion of the group, I was planning on having people all start together on a ship being attacked by river pirates. I'm looking for more of an adventuring group style of play if only to keep things easier to keep track of in my head. As for why you guys are all sticking together, I'm working on it but the current idea is that each person has a piece of a macguffin related to the GG. 3) On aesthetics, I am thinking of somewhere between 4 and 3 but leaning towards 4. The F4 Assault Rifle would be more like an LMG and the F3 Assault Rifle would be base. Combat shotgun is F4's style where as combat and pipe rifles would still be around. 4) Super Mutants in this case are a lot more rare as they're actually mostly from the West with the leader of the Unity Crusade being one of the Master's creations. The Unity Crusade is actually mostly comprised of other raiders and mutants with some Super Mutants acting as the elite. Some might have wandered in from Appalachia, but for the most part Super Mutants aren't "native" to Philly. They have Fallout 4's aesthetic for them though.
