While Fallout 4 does have its fair share of funny moments – nothing feels quite the same as the many moments encompassing the craziness exemplified by stories from individuals like Moria Brown, which is something the game suffers for. These questionable, comedic moments have always been at the core of the franchise.
Moria Brown, one of the best characters from 'Fallout 3'. I mean, who wants to go run through a minefield for the sake of experiencing it? Nothing quite beat her dark sense of humor or the dialogue choices you could cough up as the player character in response to her ridiculous requests. Take one of my favorite quest lines from Fallout 3 for example, where Moria Brown hires you to go out into the wasteland and do horrible experiments in the name of science. These specific moments of dialogue have been one of Fallout’s biggest underlying themes are a franchise, often providing some sort of context for the horribly messed-up experiments and practices the game references within its post-apocalyptic world.
The modding project didn’t’ fix the lack of dark humor in Fallout 4’s dialogue however, which is a critical piece of the franchise this game seems to be missing. Granted, some dedicated modders worked hard to fix it by returning the system to the traditional full sentence model, which worked quite well. It’s a frustrating thing to experience coming from previous installments in the franchise - when you had absolute control over your character’s dialogue, especially considering how quickly the tone could change in conversation. The problem here? Bethesda kept the exact dialogue from the players when it came to choosing their responses, which led to many instances where players would choose an option to get an entirely different response from their character. The simplified dialogue sequences of 'Fallout 4' don't give players the whole picture.
