SPOILERS - Number of Side Quests?

Post » Wed Dec 02, 2015 6:04 pm

Hi folks

"Gun-for-Hire" - Complete 10 Side Quests.

This gets me a bit worried. I was and am expecting a huge world, why do you think they only limited this to 10 side quests?

Are there no more real side quests? Are the rest dynamic fetch-quests? What do you guys think?

The info is not sourced or cited. Also, that wording suggests you have to complete 10 side quests to get the achievement, not that there are only 10 side quests. This is a Bethesda game, jeez dude.

It says "complete 10 side quests", not "complete ALL 10 side quests".

skyrim had the same thing, it has like 35 quests that counted as side quests, but you only needed to do 10 to get the achievement

You are basing your "worries" on unsubstantiated achievement titles and descriptions? Good luck with that.

Well considering you get an achievement for killing 300 people, are you going to ask if there are only going to be 300 enemies total in the game?

Lol.

Fallout 4 should have more side quests, actually i hope so...

On the other site, there is not any trophy to complete 30 or 50 quests for example. !!!

...but there is a trophy for: Complete 50 Misc. Objectives.

So i thing the OP worries are a bit justified, isn't so ???

I changed the topic title - labeling your thread as "potential spoilers" isn't much help if you also put the "spoiler" in question right there in the topic title. :)

On topic - like has been said, it doesn't say "complete ALL 10 side quests." One thing Bethesda has never lacked is a nigh-overwhelming quantity of quests. I highly doubt this will be at all an issue...

FO3 didn't have a lot of side quests. At least not if you compared it to FONV or Skyrim. Presumably Beth will be moving forward and not backward though.

Let's be nice, though. It never costs anything to be polite (though being rude can cost you warning points...)

Those aren't 'side quests'; they're miscellaneous tasks'. They're kinda like very short side quests (generally of the 'fetch' subtype); Skyrim was full of them.

Consider Fallout 3 for a moment, the game had a ton of side quest, some of which didn't have achievements to unlock for nearly all of them. For a game that's been in production for nearly ten years, I highly doubt that would merely have ten quest for players to explore or enjoy. The quest with achievements are merely quests which are "vital" or very large.

There was plenty of side quests in skyrim so I would hope fallout 4 would have as much if not more to do.

Didn't Fallout 3 have the same? Consider that Fallout isn't The Elder Scrolls. A Fallout 3 side quest can take a day to complete. They don't tend to be hundreds of fetch quests where you go to a dungeon and bring back an amulet, they tend to be very long with multiple objectives. Tend could take a very long time.

Also, consider that it says 50 misc. objectives, which is probably what you think side quests are. In Fallout 3, they were basically Elder Scrolls side quests.

I'm not worried. There are achievements/trophies for killing 300 humanoids and 300 creatures. That doesn't mean I'm not going to vaporize many times that amount of raiders and feral beasts.

Don't be worried. The dialogue doubles that of Skyrim, so we can assume that there will be just as many quests if not more.

If that's true, four hundred and fifty would be forgettable fetch quests. Fallout 3 had much fewer, more memorable side quests that were ech memorable and amazing. Miscellaneous quests are not side quests. If we get twenty side quests like in Fallout 3, I'll be happy.

This.

Misc objectives are not quests, nor they are not counted as quests by the game. Misc objectives are given thier own tally in the stats menu, seperate from side quests, becuase they are not side quests, nor are they meant to be counted as such.

No, She/He is not justified.

Skyrim had 2 trophies just like that:

SIDEWAYS: Complete 10 side quests
HERO OF THE PEOPLE: Complete 50 misc objectives

So Skyrim only had 10 quests?
