Caponi/Meet the Fallout 3 devs Specifically, Caponi worked on freeform content that was not tied to a particular quest in the base game.Vaulting ambition: how Fallout 3 changed the game Some specific areas that Caponi contributed to includes the character of Charon,Fred Zeleny on Twitter: "@q0rt @leighalexander Once, @DoctorSpooky found a CL fantasy-hookup request for Charon, the ghoul he wrote in FO3. He considered responding." Leo Stahl and his unmarked quest, in addition to serving as one of the main narrative designers on The Pitt add-on, alongside Fred Zeleny,Fred Zeleny on Twitter: "@mpacholik @BillZoeker Please save at least half of that love for the other main narrative designer for The Pitt, @DoctorSpooky." as well as the main quest line of Point Lookout.Fallout 4 Point Lookout Mod with Joel Burgess and Nate Purkeypile (13:00)Kenneth Vigue: "What about some of the particular quests that you started putting out, how did that process come about? So when you put together the Blackhall quest, Plik... was that from that initial pitch that you both kind of picked around, or did you develop the quests as you went along?"Joel Burgess: "I think Blackhall and all that stuff kind of came as we went. Y'know, obviously to say that Point Lookout is Purkey and I would be a gross injustice against the team, right? So as we started working with more folks and it became more clear who the Point Lookout team was that we could collaborate with, a lot of the quests shook out of... y'know, I think it was Fred in there who we were working with on the quest side. So we had some ideas, like we knew that we wanted to revisit the Dunwich horror. We had some various points of interests that we were interested in. Nate and I are very world-first people. So we kind of knew points of interests and locations that we were excited about. And then like we're working with Fred in there on quests and story stuff to try and weave those into like, the mansion and the boardwalk and the internment camp, and all these things sort of started to shake out of that creative process. [...] The central storyline I think really was like, maybe a 70-30 split? With us like being the 30% influence onto I think it was Erik that did the main story for Point Lookout."Nathan Purkeypile: "Yeah, we were just kind of guiding it, I would say."
