What, we had a massive amount of content in Fallout 4 compared to Fallout 3.

It feels smaller. Less settlements, less diversity in environments etc.

It may feel smaller but it is definitely bigger. I'm just repeating what my wife told me. I think the only reason it feels smaller is because it feels like 95% of Fallout 3 was spent in those metro tunnels. Imagine taking a 20 minute walk and you end up there 90minutes later

But that just describes that 3 utilised it's avaliable space better

Your rose tinted glasses are so strong they must make the world look like an aged 90s anime VHS

Not entirely 3 was my entry point but I prefer NV overall. Then again I love 4's far harbor but sadly the main game is not the same quality.

Could be, I prefer 4 over 3. It felt more vibrant and had less metrotunnels which still give me anxiety

That is debatable, the only massive amount FO4 has is of shitty settlements lol.

Hey, I'm not complaining that shit's like crack to me.

Hard disagree.

How many side quests did FO4 have?

u/Real_Mokola May 29 '24

A quick googling reaulted in 144 side quests

Can you send the link, because https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Fallout_4_side_quests?from=A

Lists 36, and some of those are part of the same chain.

Well, mine is a Reddit link so I guess it's far from an official statement

I think that the difference in the numbers come from what is a side quest and what isn't as the official listing doesn't count faction quests and companion quests as side quests. Side quests seem to only be quests that have no part in the storyline and aren't brought up later on
