also one of the specific reasons that Playing The Actual Game (or watching videos of the game) is that the nuance in line delivery is often very important. A lot of dialogue lines get discoursed to death on here and then when you actually hear them in-game it's like "wait a minute". Like in text form the nuances of a VA's delivery are often lost.

#my friend blondie is often a victim of this #like yeah i guess when completely pulled out of context and in the form of text only you could argue that's what he means #but the VA very much did not deliver it that way and when you actually hear it the actual purpose of the line is quite clear.#this makes sense right #also like. look im going to be honest the sole survivor's voice acting is often quite bad #but also there's a lot of conversations. especially with companions. where the nuance in the delivery surprised me.#like there was actually something very specific that was being communicated here. that you would miss if you were just reading the text #plain.#like. the supportive dialogue options in maccready's affinity dialogues are all delivered in an overtly naive way #which makes it obvious that mac's responses back are supposed to be read as manipulative #which is very important context that most people miss!!!
