From Josh Sawyer's Tumblr

Why didn't General Oliver have a unique voice actor? You couldn't find somebody to do a quick Patton impersonation? "Generic Bethesda vaguely African-American voice actor" is not who should be saying the last spoken lines in a game before the ending slides. Fallout: New Vegas had ~65,000 lines of spoken dialogue.  To record all of the lines, we/Bethesda had four studios recording VO concurrently for a few months.  It was a huge undertaking and unfortunately a few actors/parts got mixed up in the process. Would you ever consider setting a Fallout game in the South? Charleston would be cool. My exposure to the American south is pretty limited, but I think there are a lot of places in the south/southeast that could be cool Fallout settings.  Nathaniel Chapman always thought New Orleans would be a very cool setting.  As a Yankee from a family of Yankees, I’d be concerned that I don’t really “get” the vibe of the south enough to it, personally.  Still, I think the right group of people could make something great.

The Gunslinger has passed on

Goodbye My Friend

On 8 February I was contacted by someone claiming to be the sister of Gunslinger She has informed me that Gunslinger sadly passed away on 18 January. This initial contact was from an anon on this wiki linked to an IP address used by Gunslinger in the past, and communication was continued through follow up emails - as such we believe that this information is reliable. During his time at Nukapedia Gunslinger served time as a Chat Moderator and Patroller. Although we did have a “cool” period, and he did come and go at times, but I was always proud to call him my friend, and I for one am going to miss him. If you’d like to leave a few words, you can do so On his talk page…
