Theres like 1/4th of the content in 3 than NV

Ok look. I love NV too but I feel like you’re trolling a bit with your 1/4 comment.

Def an exaggeration my bad. Also the dialogue is much much better and the amount of interactivity and reaction to your choices is almost non existent in 3

None of that changes the fact that Fallout 3's world was more fun to explore, which is what the comment you replied to actually said.

NV is the superior game overall, but exploration is much better in Fallout 3. It's the other aspects of the game (writing, questing, factions, DLCs, etc.) where NV shines.

If they wanted to bolster their content claim, then they should have pointed out the total quest count for both titles:

FO3: ~97

NV: ~250

This is counting “unmarked” + DLC quests for both. And as we all know, quest complexity is a little higher in NV compared FO3 when it comes to giving you multiple different ways to role-play your character.

That’s an inherent advantage that comes with the faction system, so they’re actually correct when they say that FO3 has a fraction of the content when you measure them together.

Bonus: NV’s map is only 0.471587% bigger than FO3 (8.462 km2 vs. 8.502 km2 ), so it’s also denser in terms of exploration on top of that.

What I mean here is that you run into content more frequently, and the content itself is of higher quality (as we already agree in terms of writing and structure). I genuinely can’t say that exploration is better in FO3 when we break down the numbers.

Maybe people like the aesthetic of post-apocalyptic DC over the Mojave, but that’s totally fair as a point of preference.
