I've had enough shimmying along ledges and squeezing through cracks sideways to last me a lifetime

I was always under the impression that these were here specifically because loading screens broke immersion and were just as disruptive. And honestly I prefer it over a loading screen myself. God of War 2018 was one continuous camera shot with fade-to-white only when fast-travelling, it was immersive as fuck. And that was only possible because it wasn’t chucking a loading screen in my face every time an area loaded.

If they’re only there to bloat playtime they can get fucked, for sure, but I am a sucker for immersion.

Yeah I mean does anyone really want every game to become fallout? It is unbelievably irritating having to redo a level that has like six loading zones within 2 minutes.

Tbf, a lot of games with loading screens aren’t as bad as Fallout and co.

Bethesda is just inept.

Fallout 4’s loading speed is tied to the framerate. You can download a mod that uncaps the framerate during loading screens and they’re over in 1-2 seconds.

It’s sad how much money that company and its developers make off of shitty products. Just goes to show you don’t need to be competent to appease the average consumer.

Absolutely. It’s insane to me how much a clout a studio still has, that hasn’t made a good game in now 15 years.
