Thank you Todd Sempai for blessing us with this wonderful NPC!

Look at the concept art and you'll be even madder
What is the practical purpose of gen 3 synths?
Seriously, if you need slave robots, you can just stop at gen 2. Making them look like people and giving them independent thought doesn't help anyone
>>322016880
And thank you for giving us Marcy, to bitch about her death long after we kill her.
>>322016880
In a couple months there will be a mod that fixes her into a complete GILF on the nexus.
>>322017662
"I can feel the hunger for cock, but I'm gonna need some Jet first."
>>322017619
They needed them to slip into society to push their propoganda.

WHY DOES THIS CHARACTER EXIST
WHO GREENLIGHTED THE VOICE ACTOR
>>322017951
"The Institute is evil and will kill you in your sleep and replace you with a robot" is an incredibly bad propaganda message. Even when I was put in charge of the Institute I don't know their priorities.
>>322018094
>WHY DOES THIS CHARACTER EXIST
Bethesda wanted to have a psychic character because Fallout has always had psychic characters.
>>322017315
>Look at the concept art
>instead of just posting it
>on an imageboard
You're a special kind of nigger.
>>322018094
All the voice actors from the power armor demo content suck ass.
>>322017951
Why don't they just provide the people of the commonwealth with useful shit instead of people snatchers?
Like better medicine and chems?
New types of food?
Better weapons and defenses for fighting raiders?
Build new housing and structure?
Or cybernetic implants that make people live longer?
The Institute is helping no one.
>>322018589
Don't worry, I'll post instead
Can you the heartbreak the Bethesda art team went through?
>>322017619
Basically they needed smarter machines to perform more complex tasks, and accidentally ended up giving them something approaching free will.
>>322018390
You're confusing Nazi style propaganda with Soviet Cold War style propaganda using hysteria and mutual distrust to damage their oppositions quality of life enough that they can slip their agents (Gen 3s) in for social engineering.
>>322018829
Thanks for bringing the quality. Also
>drug addled old black woman you can push to overdose
The useful idiots would've had a field day with that one. How much of the original Mama Murphy do you think got pushed off onto Tinker Tom?
>>322018829
>originally we were going to make her have unique features, but that would take work so we made her a regular NPC instead
This picture sums up everything wrong with bethesda
>>322018791
Vault 81 was a better institute than The Institute, and they had like two people there that could be called scientists.
>>322019812
>originally we were going to make her have unique features, but that would take work so we made her a regular NPC instead
Literally this
>>322019534
Another concept art of her
>>322019812
It sounds more like the art team had a ton of great ideas that got butchered
I don't have it but there was a guy that posted a link to the full artbook
It's depressing to see
>>322020167
T-t-thank you bethesda
>>322020167
>the art team had a ton of great ideas that got butchered
welcome to real video game dev "dreammbois" daily reminder that todd read this and let it fly.
>>322020167
Wow that looks fucking retarded.
>>322020272
>>322020298
>>322020351
>>322020167
these ideas do nothing to the world though.
floating mama murphy? with her horrible "visions" is it even worth it?
the rocketman? probably dlcs.
ghouls are the most disappoiting thing though. they look horrified in the art without being f3/nv potatoes but bethshit must have family friendly sentient zombie in the game. Just a texture can change them closer to the orignial vision.
>>322020351
That looks great, fallout-friendly tbqh.
How to turn a great concept as an obnoxious character : the thread
>concept art is better than final version
what else is fucking new
>>322020601
Fuck I wanted to kill birds so bad. Fuck birds
>>322020864
you can kill birds in f4. you have been able to since nv. they are just not vat-valid,
She started out a rip off of Mother Abagail from The Stand.
>>322020601
Those seagulls are in the game and look identical to that concept.
Their "AI" is fucking godawful and I don't think shooting them does anything though.
>>322016880
>Tinker Tom
Did this game seriously need a stereotypical funny black guy?
>>322021142
you can kill them.
http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Seagull
>>322018829
Why is she white in the game?
=*
>>322020601
>the institute makes extremely advanced synth creatures to spy on the wasteland
>they make horrible spies because they are perfect copies of pre-war creatures and can't blend in with all
Would have been a funny quest line within the institute.
Where's my shitty Chinese AK Todd?
Should have been a unique weapon you get form the Chinese sub at least.
>>322021870
Anyone else notice how the Chinese sub was covered in English signs? Fucking laziness, even Fallout 3 had more thought put into the little things like that.
>>322018829
>>322020167
>>322020601
bethesda gets all these original concepts and just shits on them
what a fucking disgraceful company
>>322018829
Ho-lee-fuk. I always thought Mama Murphy had really weird earrings and design in general. I mean why would an old white Bostonian lady dress this way; were they trying to make her look like a gypsy?
But this explains everything. She was a fucking Africa-themed black person that they made into a white person at the last minute to avoid PR issues.
>>322021413
Because an old black woman as a drug addict would've been super racist, you fucking shitlord.
>>322024191
They should've just called her Mama Mubuntu then, she could've derived her psychic powers from voodoo magic acquired from her days spent on Martha's Vineyard.
>mfw let her OD
>>322022092
Dude this whole game is a missed opportunity from the broad strokes down to the smallest fucking detail, just a rousing disappointment.
Bethesda has totally spent any good will they've earned now, only drooling faggots will buy their 'games'.
>>322017619
Infiltration & Subversion
Requiring a machine that can think and act on its own
Push the boundaries of technology
People who like Fallout are like people who have a sick pet and they keep thinking it'll get better when everyone knows it's as good as dead, but they can't say anything because then the owner will lose their shit. Yeah it's like that.
>>322026707
people who like big budget video games in general.
>>322027003
people who like video games in general.
>>322026707
It simply comes down to there being no other games of that particular ilk. Same reason GTA games are so big, there is pretty much no competition for what they are offering. if you dont like it there isnt an alternative.
>>322021413
Because Bethesda decided making her a drug addicted lazy New York Jew would be less racist than a far more realistic drug addicted lazy black woman who practices negro superstition.
>>322026501
Couldn't afford it on your Christmas money, NEET?
>>322027750
fallout itch is scratched by isometric turn base rpgs in post apoc settings, not the newest rooty tooty open world rpg.
