B's latest masterpiece "Starry Land" borrows the character trait mechanism of " Fallout New Vegas ". Recently, director Todd Howard introduced this. He said they have also added a way to allow players to remove the traits of their characters.
"Role trait" is different from character perk. "Role trait" contains both a positive effect and a negative effect. When creating a character at the beginning of "Starry Land", players can choose up to 3 "character traits" or choose none of them. Some of the traits currently disclosed are as follows (translated as temporary translation):
Alien DNA: You volunteered to participate in a controversial experiment that combined aliens with human DNA. Therefore, your initial health volume is higher and your endurance is higher, but the healing props are less effective.
Dream Home: You own a luxury villa on a quiet planet, but you have to pay 50,000 credit points per week for it.
empathy: you empathy with others. Doing things your companions like can temporarily improve combat ability, but doing things they don't like can have the opposite effect.
Extroverted: You like to socialize with others. Walking with human companions can reduce oxygen consumption, but moving alone can increase oxygen consumption.
Free Alliance Resident: You have exclusive dialogue options for the Free Alliance faction, and there are higher rewards for the corresponding tasks. But other camps will increase their desire for you. (Other camps also have similar traits, these traits cannot be selected at the same time)
Hero worship: You are worshipped, fanatical fans will appear randomly and chatter at you, but they will also give you gifts.
Introverted: You like to be alone. You have higher endurance when you move alone, but less endurance when you walk with your human companions. (You can't choose at the same time as your personality is extroverted)
Good baby: Your parents are alive, you can visit them, but all the money income is automatically deducted by 10% and transferred to your parents. Before
"Fallout New Vegas" also had a similar "character trait" mechanism, but once the player selects it, the game cannot be changed in the middle. "Starry Land" has added a new feature that allows players to remove traits by completing special tasks. And judging from Todd Howard's words, it seems that different traits are removed through different tasks.
In addition, Todd Howard also briefly introduces the persuasion mechanism in the game, that is, to change other people's views through specific options in the conversation, so as to achieve your own goals. Todd said that the persuasion mechanism and dialogue of "Starry Land" have been integrated into one, and it feels more natural; there are fixed round limits when persuasion, and each sentence consumes a specific number of points, and they also have different effects.
It is worth mentioning that Todd pointed out that the number of dialogue texts in "Starry Land" exceeds 250,000 lines, much more than twice that of " Fallout 4".
Currently, "Starry Land" is expected to be released in the first half of 2023. Stay tuned ~
