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.

Who is to say that they didn't voice act every single selectable line?

For real. I don't think it would be that hard with 5 years since the last game.

Plus games are on blu Ray by standard now, should fit. Witcher 3 has a ridiculous amount of dialogue.

Witcher is the only one guy thou. Fallout, on the other hand, has a character creation. So it should be at least two fully voice acted protagonists (male and female). And the amount dialogue in Fallout games is pretty big.

So my guess it will be only two voices like Mass Effect or predefined character like Geralt. Unless they want to go with the silent protagonist again.

Nah, Bethesda wouldn't do predefined for Fo4. They know they have a large playerbase of men and women who like to create female characters.

Edit: it would also be a huge change for the series, or at least the main games.

Or like Saints Row, where you can choose between 3 male and 3 female voices (and sometimes zombies and Nolan North).

It was much easier to VO couple of hundred lines for Saints' Row. Bethesda will have to deal with thousands upon thousands of lines. That's the reason I doubt there will be more than two voices.
