    unless you’re talking about lack of interactable npcs I’m surprised you feel the environment is empty. i always found it pretty dense especially in boston itself.

      Empty of meaningful things to do

      Sure there’s dozens of little dungeons to go into and scrounge for shit, but the only two actual towns are Diamond City and Goodneighbor. Everything else is just shooting raiders, ferals, super mutants, synths, etc. You can’t make any real choices or change much apart from the incredibly shallow settlement building bullshit, which I guess is supposed to replace the towns they decided to just not put in the game

        To each their own

        I fucking LOVE FO4 exactly because of that

        If I wanted a cringe grimdark backstory on every house cat in the game I’d play Divinity Original Sin 2 (good game, you should play it)

          Yeah what I mean is that all the scenery starts to look the same and fighting super mutants/synths/raiders/gunners/BoS/Railroad/Minutemen is all pretty samey, and all for samey rewards and through samey quests where everything is disconnected from everything else in a pretty boring way

        I’ve got my survival game set up so staying alive is actually kinda difficult, which makes the fighting and looting much more engaging. it’s the only way to play fo4 IMO
