Ian's Phrase...

[EvgeniBuzov]

Im not sure if anyone has asked this before.. If you talk to Ian in Fallout 1, click"Ask About" and then Type in "Tandi". He says that she's a pretty sweet girl, but he has someone waiting for him alredy.

Does anyone know more about this subject? Iv'e read some parts of the Fallout Bible, but didn't find abything about that.. cept that he catches a bullet in Necropolis.

That's probably just a reference the developers forgot to remove. A remnant of an unfiinished story.

 

[EvgeniBuzov]

Yer, I actually kept typing all sorts of phrases in the "Ask About" menu so he would talk some more about himself, y'know tell us his story and who is waiting for him.

Meh...

 

[Duckman]

I never really took this into consideration before... But it would be good to see who is waiting for.

I never usually found that "Ask About" button too useful, apart from the obvious quest questions and that.

Which is exactly why they removed it in the second game. It took a lot of time to add the keywords for each NPC, and add valid keywords, and very few people were using it.

The "Ask About" button was pretty useless, but I found it amusing when I was a twelwe-year-old retard (and a munchkin).

Me: "Ask about... YOUR ASS! (tee-hee-hee...)"
NPC: "Don't know anything about that."
Me: "Lolololololololoi."

Oh yeah, and it would be nice to know more about Ian's special someone. Too bad he died all the time and never met her.

Or him.

Ian might have been gay. You never know.

Wow something about Fallout I never knew! Will there ever be a day when there's nothing left?

The "Ask About" button was pretty useless, but I found it amusing when I was a twelwe-year-old retard (and a munchkin).

Me: "Ask about... YOUR ASS! (tee-hee-hee...)"
NPC: "Don't know anything about that."
Me: "Lolololololololoi."

Me too.

Sincerely,
The Vault Dweller

I actually loved the button, it allowed for much background info to be dispensed (especially when looking through the files - LA had four levels of knowledge intended for inhabitants.).

I miss it.

That reminds me of the time when I asked The Master if he wanted to have sex with me or something like that, and I got the answer 'Maybe sometime' or something like it.

A very disturbing vision passed through my thoughts...

(On the other hand, I'm not so sure if it was the Master anymore, but the vision is still there)
