I honestly would’ve thought that an orifice to release waste products came first, but I’m not an evo-devo-nist.

Anxious, but in a titillating sort of way.

Bonus!

Ah yes. That’d be luck. And sometimes, just seeking refuge in audacity. Just stare the doctor right in the eyes and say: “What? Don’t pretend you haven’t done it too.”
Doesn’t matter if it’s true or not. He’ll pretend it is - if he knows what good for him.

Okay, I’m gonna be honest here: That’s one thing that’s never happened to me.
Lots of other… things, yes. But not that one.

Well, yeah. Except in the sense that they’re shit at it. Like everything else.

I suspect the wanna-be autocrats in the country where nothing can seemingly get the populace off the couch might be projecting a little bit.

Well, that was… Profoundly disturbing in a way I haven’t seen since dodging a Reaper on foot in ME3.

Thing is, I really don’t see how that’d work for any useful scenario. Even in this very limited case natural language processing and response generation is definitely off-loaded to a remote server farm, and isn’t running on the console. TTS for a single characters voice could - but likely isn’t - be done on the hardware, but as I mentioned elsewhere, the voice models for modern text-to-speech synthesis are very, very large. Typically gigabytes of data - per voice. Completely unrealistic for any meaningful game.
Even if all those trained models existed (they don’t), I doubt any consumer would be amused by a multi-terabyte download.
Even as it is, the response latency is hilariously bad. I players having to wait seconds for each NPC response would fly as well as a lead brick.

Interesting point, although I don’t see how you’d manage to run modern TTS (the models can get very large, and that’s per voice; as an example Parler-TTS’s mini model is 800Mb, the HQ model is 2.3Gb - for one voice) + a LLM for content synthesis on any personal hardware, console or not. The storage requirements alone would make that grossly infeasible.

Does anybody actually want that, ever?

I don’t disagree, but my problem is the ways in which is clearly isn’t Fallout. Specifically, FO has some deep lore that justifies the existence, mannerisms and internecine postures of the various factions, but here it’s apparently just… Waves of nutters take the first opportunity to move into a radiological quarantine zone and set up shop as conveniently thematic gangs for… reasons.
“Just think about it lads! Not only can we live in a place that’ll kill us on the cellular level, but we can wear theatrical facepaint - don’t ask where we’re getting a steady supply of that - like a 24/7 Kiss revival concert! It’ll be awesome! There’ll be matching top hats for everyone. Millinery is a real growth industry in here. Mind the mercury.”
But other than that, it looks fun enough.

Well, that’s true. It’s driving us all straight into the ground at velocities more typically associated with railgun development or orbital mechanics.
