All these accents in Diamond City are what worries me. Seriously, this is smack dab in the middle of Fenway, and the only guy who actually talks like he's from Boston is the weirdo with the violent fixation on baseball? Meanwhile, the doctor, the gun merchant, and the bartenders talk like they're from places that, as far as anyone knows, only exist as radioactive rubble. Is it any wonder that people are concerned about synths?
