I'm pretty sure there are furry mods somewhere out there. That answer your question? |

No clue, but those would have been great...sans lack of Ron Perlman. |

I don't recall seeing any fanmade endings. Besides, it kind of seems like the whole quests thing-- even if they have the skill in making the aesthetics, most fan writers aren't worth shit, or at least don't put even a halfassed effort into their work.
The only exceptions are the collaborations where a decent writer is working alongside a decent modeller/skinner/animator. |

Main problem with adding quests to Fallout 3 is that, although the spoken dialog has repetitive actors, is that it's somewhat jarring meeting characters that have no voicework at all. |

Can't you mod in voicework? I've been thinking of getting FO3 for PC for the mod kit and starting my own massive mod project to turn Fallout 3 into the game it was ment to be. |

let's be honest - nobody wants to hear voice acting from 30 year old basement dwellers unless of course they're voicing Myron or his clone (which I wouldn't put past FO3 DLC in the future) |

Hammer would have made a great voice actor. He'd play the manliest character in any game. |

One solution would be to have the mod turn of all voices and turn on subtitles. So that it's all text. |

I'd play a Fallout game with all voices voiced by Ron Perlman. |

While I hear lip-synching is a bitch to do with the toolset, the main roadblock is finding voice talent. Remember how shitty all the voices in my Tactics mod were on account of the fact I voiced everyone but the one female character and one of the male characters?
Dicksmoker has the truth of it, and I was thinking about that as a work-around myself, but disabling spoken dialog in the game is probably more trouble than someone half-assing voice work. |

I know a couple people who've got some serious potential. My friend Eric does some really good impressions of both Tom Heartman and Ian McKellen, along with some others. |

You could always do like a text-to-voice thing to avoid all voice work. Also I don't think it would matter too much to have a few characters in the game with only text, it was like that in the others too. Important characters had voice and other had text. I wouldn't mind really. |

That's not the thing - it just doesn't mesh with how the swell guy that made Fallout 3 setup the game. |

As a non-native speaker, I actually prefer written English over spoken. I always turn subtitles on from the game's settings and often play games with volume turned so low that I can't make out most of the stuff the characters are saying anyways. I also like the way they did voice acting in, say, Republic or KOTOR for example: you add some incoherent gibberish (space alien language, 'East-European-Russianish'-language...) to play in a loop and the content is written in plain English. It feels like the characters are talking, but the point is to actually read the text. Saves time and money And a lot of gray hair. |
