Fallout 4 is going to be a huge game, and we don’t talk about the size of the area that we can discover, or about the amount of hours needed to complete the game. Instead, the amount of lines that will be in the game. One hundred and eleven thousand lines. 111.000. It’s instantly more than what Fallout 3 and The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim had together. This was announced by Bethesda themselves on Twitter.
Out of this, 26 thousand lines are by the heroes (male and female together), and NPCs got 85 thousand. How much time did it take to record all this? Well… roughly TWO years. The game’s director, Todd Howard – who also overviewed the development of Fallout 3 and Skyrim – said that Courtenay Taylor and Brian T. Delaney (the voice actors of the heroes) recorded 13 thousand lines each, and it took them two years to do so. Let’s face it, that is incredible. If these were all uncompressed, a big amount of the space would be taken up by them on the Blu-ray disc.
So there will be a lot of speech. If there’s going to be several voice actors, then there will be variety too. Fallout 4 will be out on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC on November 10. We’ll see how and what will the characters talk about…
Many years of #Fallout4 voice recording complete! Just over 111k lines. More than Fallout 3 and Skyrim combined. pic.twitter.com/hwNu2GNg5m
