Fallout: New Vegas
KvP:
More apparent deets:
- It's unclear now as to whether the Big Man in Vegas is called Hughes or House.
- Big Man doesn't deal personally with the Casinos. There are apparently various faction that control the different Casinos and one of them is named the Chairman, a dude you don't want to mess with apparently. I wonder what color his eyes will be...
- All factions respect Big Man's rule. They still have their own purviews though. There are some casinos that you cannot enter armed unless you hide your guns with a very high sneak skill.
- There is allegedly a place called Gomorrah. Not clear whether it's a town or a casino, but it's sure to be debauched.

So the Big Man could be voice acted by Hugh Laurie then? Awesome.
As for the 4 different currencies...as long as the exchange rates are reasonably static and simple (as in, simple decimals and not 3.44758838 caps to the chip) it should be OK. The only problem will be that these currencies will probably be difficult to find without killing people who already have some. At least, they SHOULD be difficult to find, unless the Big Man has a large mint and printing press.
I hope killing the Big Man and taking over is an option.

I've thought of that possibility in a lot of RPGs, but it's not easy to implement - see Morrowind/Oblivion, where you could do this with pretty much any faction, but the result was only that you could go by once a week and pick up cash.
It could be fun, but if NV is anything like Fallout 3, the roaming part is what you want to do, and you don't want to go back to town every day to give orders. Maybe if you could do something like setting up a middle man who ran the day to day business, and then be able to pop by and make the big decisions. Think the Solstheim colony in Morrowind, just with more choices and more fun.

But there was nothing wrong with Inon Zur's work, what (I mean I know there were people who said it was too dramatic all of the time but seriously the ambient music was fantastic and perfect and stands up on its own)

The best part is that I could imagine him doing this.

Knowing what quests and sidequests are in Fallout, this could most definitely happen. Most likely they'd do multiple outcomes with multiple different awards.
Which brings me to the karma system - are they going to just recycle that from the previous games, or have they mentioned any sign of change?

There may not have been anything 'wrong' with it, but there wasn't a whole lot right either. Replacing it with the original soundtracks was a huge improvement in most cases.
