About this image

Good news, we're in the phase of mod development where I'm no longer responsible for how long it takes to release! It's all functional (by my standards), it's written, it's ready to go! ...Except it's half-unvoiced. All the roles have been cast, but cast don't mean recorded and implemented. (This isn't me passive-aggressively needling my actors, I only opened casting a week ago. I'd be shocked if everyone was fully voiced in such a short span.)

I'm probably jinxing it and ensuring this character will be despised by everyone, but goddamn I'm happy with how this companion turned out.

    Well then, looks like another adventure of Overseer's quest mod series is on the horizon

    I'm interested to meet our new companion. Can't be any worse than Eliza :P

      My biggest problem with Eliza is that my intent to make her an independent character, with her own views and ideas on the Mojave, ended up manifesting as her just being really prone to complaining and refusing to humor any opinions and ideas that she doesn't personally agree with. I can say with certainty that isn't an issue with this one.

      If I were to predict any possible complaints about this companion, it'd be: "She philosophizes too much when I ask her about her worldview" and/or "Hey I directly asked her about her backstory, and she calmly explained that she's had a terrible life, and I'm choosing to interpret that as whining." I can safely file those away into the trash pile, along with the "Hey I was deliberately playing your mods in a really stupid fashion and I accidentally broke the mod, f*#@ you bruh" ones.

      people jsut like interpreting having a rough back story as whining. i never see it as such i have no issues with say carth from kotor 1.

      now what she does need is to go on a rant about how the legion as a whole isnt grey.

      Ironically, I think Eliza genuinely was whining. Her life was pretty idyllic, but hates pretty much everything just on principle.

      I think people interpret ANYTHING as whining. Eliza came across as strongly opinionated, but I think that was more to do with her just recognizing that the world she is in is a dumpster fire, despite her relatively comfortable upbringing (at least in the context of the wastelands, it exemplifies good general awareness imo). Don't think a good upbringing disqualifies someone having a generally negative/pessimistic take on things, nor do they necessarily deserve to be labeled a whiny c*** for it. Mostly. A little. She was only a little whiny.

      But that's just my "hot take" from the mod.

      I don't hate Eliza, I'm just not satisfied that she accomplished what I was aiming for with the character.

    Do you plan on Eliza making comments in your upcoming mod? Or is it already implemented?
