How big is the map compared to Fallout 3/NV?
Not as big but much more dense.
does every single image have so many things going on

it's stylistically designed to be that way

I can't even use my fucking helicopter because it counts as fast travel.

So now I get to walk from Prydwen back to Sanctuary to dump all my crafting shit, yay.

If I'm required to go to Institute again, I'm royally fucked.

Already have. In and out of power armour, tried vertibird and so forth.

I could just revert to my save from just before I went into the Institute but effort...

I've just got past the 'issue' with paladin danse and I've done too much to go back.

Well you've got the choice of forced immersion/unreal tedium or making up a few hours of lost time now.

Kinda shitty either way, but if it was me I'd just revert and put that down as a loss. A bitch now, but consider marching from sanctuary to the tip of the glowing sea later on.

I ended up reloading and now I'm trapped in the institute. Yay.

So now I'll have to reload my save. Won't be fun having to make up over a day of progress.

Edit: turns out I had ti finish the quest before I could go. 3 hours vs. 24 isn't as bad, thinkibg about it.

FO4's map is significantly larger than FO3's, and a bit bigger than Skyrim's.

It's smaller than Skyrims actually.

His eyebrows sparkling, his white beard hangs down to his chest. The thatched mats, spread outside his chise, spread softly, his splendid attos. He polishes, cross-legged, his makiri, with his eyes completely absorbed.

He is Ainu.

The god of Ainu Mosir, Ae-Oine Kamuy, descendant of Okiku-Rumi, He perishes, a living corpse. The summers day, the white sunlight, unabrushed, ends simply through his breath alone.
Skyrim takes about 2 hours and 10 minutes to travel from corner to corner; Fallout 4 takes about 41 minutes.

It's hardly a fair comparison when considering that fallout is pretty flat and skyrim has a fuck ton of mountains.

Unless these were done by no clipping

You sure? I could have sworn they said it was bigger. Just like how TW3 is supposedly a bit bigger than Skyrim.

Map size comparison between fallout 3, 4, and Skyrim.

To be fair here though, while FO4 is smaller than Skyrim it's a lot more dense.

Bethesda refused to say anything other than "they're about the same size".

Oh, cool.

Still, skyrim had a lot of areas with nothing happening. Fallout 4 doesn't really have any of that, so I'm not complaining.

A straight walk.
YouTube


You can also see in the video that the majority of the time, he's walking on semi-level ground and every time that he encounters a mountainous area, he just drops off the side instead of walking to find an easy way down. At worst, climbing mountains would add a half hour to the time; still quite a bit longer than FO4.

Not saying it's a bad thing; I'd rather have a smaller map with more to do than a larger one with nothing in it.
