Is the character creation system similar to Oblivion?
GC: Visually speaking, character customization is very similar to Oblivion, with the ability to push and pull and prod your character’s face into any shape you desire. You pick your character’s race, and then have a host of options for skin tint, hair color and face shape. We also want to provide a number of pre-made faces that have been lovingly massaged by our artists here, so people have more palatable options to use as starting points. As far as customizing your character’s stats goes, it’s very different from Oblivion. You distribute points to your SPECIAL attributes, as well as pick a few skills to boost. Traits and perks then allow for further customization with interesting effects. AT: Is it possible to know, at this point, how many quests we will see in the final version of Fallout 3? GC: Giving you a specific number wouldn’t paint an accurate picture. Each quest has multiple paths to completion, and how you choose to complete one quest can affect what quests are available lat
