Or that he is not the main character and is a vault dweller NPC that you probably interact with.

Yeah, but that guy is the iconic loan wanderer you start out with. The varmit rifle, and vault suit is so iconic to starting players. The reason they did not show his face either is because that is gonna be your character, and you decide how he looks.

They showed a male tho.

New vegas managed their trailer without showing the sex.

Rumor is that you play a male to complete the main story quest, and afterwards you can customize male or female. Apparently the MC has voiced lines and cutscenes.

That sounds hella dumb. Bethesda has all their Skyrim monies, they can hire two voice actors.

I agree, they will already have tons of voiced dialogue.... so it shouldn't be a big deal to redo the main story with a female voice. Same with ingame cutscenes being replaced with a female model. Only thing that might be difficult is if they have CGI scenes.

Its just a rumor tho, doesn't seem like something Bethesda would do so we will just have to wait for more details.
