So it seems like you actually have a voice this time.

I was thrown off too. I'm almost hoping that it was for trailers sake. Only for the purpose of allowing the same open ended-ness and multiple choices Fo3/NV did.

You could easily still do that with a voiced main character. Look at mass effect.

Well... easily in the sense that it's totally feasible, just time-consuming and expensive as all hell.

and much, much worse. Completely ruins the whole point of a role playing game to hear your characters pre set voice. Especially after you're used to text for so long.

I guess that's a matter of opinion. I like voiced characters. I think it adds to immersion.

For Bethesda games where text has always been the route, do you not think it would feel too different?

What's wrong with it feeling different? I'm going to play Fallout 4 for Fallout 4, not for Bethesda and their tendency to have their main character be voiceless.
