Definately looks better than those horrible perk trees. Should make each level and perk pick interesting rather than making players pick a perk just to get to the cooler ones later down the road.

That said, why does a charisma perk increase carrying cap by 50 and grant a 15% damage reduction per perk rank?

Thats a lone wanderer perk... only activates when you have no companion. I think the charisma choice has to do more with the loner status... and they had to give you a carrying buff if you dont have your mules.

Strong Back is still under strength.

On a side note... Charisma looks like its pretty good this time. Will need at least five to get that killer Party Animal perk.

Yup, but that perk has little to do with charisma.

Being alone is not something I would associate charisma with.

Not that there is no soft cap. You will eventually run out of quests and content. You will likely hit a wall, estimated level 50-70.

That is only 70~ out of 280 perks.

Mods, DLC, Random Encounters

It will be possible and viable, just like it became with Skyrim after they added Legendary Skills.

Then there are also 100 magazines in the game. Its too early to jump to conclusions. But if they give you existing perks, that will result in even less choice.

Looking at the announced perks thus far...

Man, most of those perks feel uninspired, or mostly pointless towards affecting your overall playstyle.

  • 5% extra damage against members of the opposite sex.
  • 15% damage reduction and 50 carrying cap alone.
  • 25% bonus damage in VATS
  • Improve your weapon for more damage
  • somethingsomething bonus damage
  • yet another damage increase.

Why do all these perks feel so samey? Seems like once again, everything will revolve around violence rather than problem solving. You know, what made Fallout 1 so great. Using your characters abilities to solve the problems of relatively well realized world.

So glad to see "Perks". Scared me for a second when it was first announced.

I'll get the amazing looking fallout anthology soon.

But I think I'll just jump straight into 4, that looks like the game I'll enjoy the most anyway.

Quick, everyone throw your gaming PCs in the trash. PC gaming is officially dead.
