Alternate start?

[Traveler]

Wonder how tied to the character shown in the previes will the game be? One of my favorite mods for Skyrim is Live another Life. Your still the Dragonborn but you get to start with a completely different backstory and spawn no where near Helgan.

Will a mod like this work in F4? will there be so much flexability that it won't be needed?

I can't think of any reason why it wouldn't.

I'm guessing there won't be much flexibility in the intro (aside from a few dialogue options). There will almost certainly be an alternate start mod.

It would certainly work. After the bombs fell and you be out for 200 years. Your new life is just that. A new life.
Starting in the vault 111 or another place should not matter much.

Even if it did.
The new mod could just say they dragged your "lifeless" corpse out of the vault and you woke up another place.

There will always be a way.

However. Something for fallout 5.
Different "races" and factions.
You can chose the lone wanderer and start in a vault. Or you can chose to be a ghoul and start another place with radiation and the likes.
Or a bandit and start the game in a bandit camp.

Different starting zones kinda like you have in world of warcraft.

That would be something

Alternate Start in NV was lacking though....it didn't have the same impact the Skyrim one had, which was far better done IMO.

New Vegas didn't really need Alternate Start as much as Skyrim or Fallout 3 did (the intro is very short for NV).

I've always wished developers would try to do something like Alternate Start in their games from the get go, Fallout and Skyrim style games are especially amazing for this kinda thing, just such a huge bonus to the RP experience.

It would be cool, but I understand why they tend to stick with one beginning, since it's a lot easier to tell a story if you only have to work with one intro.

One thing I liked about the Alternate Start mod in skyrim was that it disabled the plot flags. This meant no annoying dragon fights unless you wanted them. After playing for a decent amount of time they became really more tedious than anything else, so having a good chance to just tell them to bugger off was great. I assume there will eventually be a mod like that for FO4, that just tells the plot to go away until you want to do it.

Im the same. I dont want to start the game as a married couple. Infact I'd rather play as the baby! an OP genius baby at that !

I'd be genius if bestheda has "multiple backgrounds" we can shoose from when starting the game. That be pretty neat. Our background has an effect on how people reacted to you in the the wasteland would be pretty nice.
