Fallout 4 Voice Actress Says Writing Is Exactly What You'd Expect From A Fallout Game But Better

Fallout 4 is going to be with us in a week's time. Many gamer's are battening down the hatches, getting ready for a several hundred hours of gameplay.

What we don't know much about though, is the game's main narrative. To be fair, I found the central narrative of Fallout 3 to be one of the least interesting things in the game, with the side stories providing a lot in terms of your digital life in the wastelands, but it will be interesting to see how Fallout 4's plays out on that front.

Speaking to IGN, Voice actress Courtenay Taylor seems pretty excited about the level of storytelling in the game at least. After recording 13,000 lines that made it into the game, Taylor said it is the level of detail that elevates the game:

I've never worked this long on a game and I think that does affect my excitement but also the material is great. The writing is great. It is exactly what you would expect from a Fallout game, but better – it's more immersive. They've taken it to a new level. There's no stone that's been unturned. It's like – I went to Pixar, in Emeryville once. And they were talking about the movie Cars, and the level of detail in Cars. In every car, they would know what was in the glove box, even if the glove box is never opened, these creators would know exatly what was inside. You couldn't just say "oh, I have no idea". Detail is fleshed out completely. And it rung the same for me on Fallout 4. Even if the camera never goes there, we know it's there. And the effect of that level of detail is going to be apparent.

I really am fascinated by what Bethesda Softworks have done with the story o. Seeing how deep the central narrative is, is one of the things I'm most excited about. And there really is so little time until we are off to the races.
