===Participation in the Fallout series===
Mercer grew up playing games in the Fallout series. Because of the secretive nature of voice recording at the time, and that actors were not immediately told what project they were working on, he was initially unaware of what project he was performing for when he began recording on Fallout 4. However, after reading a few lines of dialogue, he realized that it was a Fallout game because of his experience with the series.Fallout 4 Cast & Crew Reunion (reference starts at 17:30)Matthew Mercer: "I had the exact same experience as Peter. Same thing, like, grew up playing 'em all... including Brotherhood of Steel, eh. Not all of 'em can be winners. But yeah, same thing, we didn't know what we were going in, as soon as you get a few lines of dialogue, and those of us who had played the previous games, it clicked and... it was just kind of, like, all of a sudden all the anxiety that built up of realizing what it was and trying not to let it affect your performance until the first break came. It was like... walking into the break room, 'Is this... is this Fallout?' They're like 'Shh...'"
