Wonder if they're going to have something like the Boston Naval Yard had a surplus of armors in storage or something.

Oh, so he's sprinting? That makes the time more reasonable than the "11 minutes to walk across the map" that someone said earlier"

Velen is also 80-90% empty space dude.

That's not a criticism, Witcher 3 just really spaces out most of its content.

That's definitely fair though it actually is mostly brown and green, being forests and fields. They're just much nicer used browns and greens.

I'm sure Novagrad will still be a far more convincing city than anything in a Bethesda game though.

You can run across the entire fallout 1 map in like 45 seconds if you don't hit any encounters.

I wasn't going to get Fallout 4, but now that I know that you can have pet cats and have stylish sunglasses my opinion is beginning to change.

No. He plays God who you meet at the end after your character makes a really dumb "heroic" sacrifice.

random encounters are probably out from bethesda games for good because nobody even kows there were hundreds of them in skyrim because you only encountered them if you didn't use fast travel

In 3 certain areas could spawn a random encounter from a few prefab scenarios. Like a Deathclaw chasing a raider, or a pack of ghouls guarding a fridge full of water.

The alien ufo would explode over random places at random times too. Sometimes it would make the alien blaster or the Firelance impossible to obtain since they can fall somewhere you can't reach.

they spawn randomly when you're out on the road not at a landmark, ie not using fast travel

Just because it was in Skyrim is reason enough to expect it in Fallout 4.

It's like in the other game. Get the reference? I get it, and I'm mumbling various memes to myself as I get it.
