You definitely don't get the whole story from quest number. Shadow of Mordor is a much longer game than Horizon Zero Dawn if you play it properly and enjoy everything there is to offer from the Nemesis system.

Determining how long a game is by quests is stupid. Dragon Age Inquisition was filled with so many pointless boring filler quests

That'a a bit subjective. That's like saying Fallout 4 has the most to do because you can keep doing minute men quests endlessly.

Brave_Losers_Unite2583d ago

Infinite replayability! I never have to buy another game again!

_-EDMIX-_2583d ago

If you play anything a specific way it could be longer.

Quality over quantity for me any day. I like it when there are just enough interesting quests to ensure you visit most of the game world, without resorting to filler content.

Lord_Sloth2583d ago

Fortunately the Witcher has both. XXXD

Kurdishcurse2583d ago

Not at all. The witcher is one of the worst in boring quests. Bloated diologue beyond logic, many boring and half assed quests(escorting a goat? And piss off with your missing frying pan lady) witcher 3 to me, is the epitome of quantity over quality.

Takwin2583d ago

This other guy - Kurdishcurse - clearly has some issues. The depth of the quest system in The Witcher 3 is staggering, the dialogue is A+, and there is nothing akin to DragonAge/MassEffect with their fetch quests and boring padding.

Lord_Sloth2581d ago

You quoted 2 of the 405 quests the game offers, 1 of which (the goat) I found amusing and funny. Not terribly long regardless.

gametrotter2584d ago

How do games like Far Cry 4 and GTAV compare to this for content?

Kleptic2583d ago

Well GTAV definitely has over '100 things to do', so would make the list on that metric, but I guess the list only focuses on traditional rpg like mechanics or something.

Not sure of its accuracy, though. Oblivion has over 200 'quests', Morrowind had over 400...Neither are on this list...so...?

How nice of them to give us more control over graphical settings as a way to *completely* avoid taking accountability for the broken Xbox settings.

bondsmx23d ago

Well, I still crashed like 5 times last night within two hours. So there’s that.

anast22d ago

I had to stop. The game is not good. I'd rather play Skyrim and that game isn't that good either.

I Think It's About Time We Realize Fallout 4 Wasn't That Bad

Ahmed from eXputer: "2015's Fallout 4 received harsh criticism upon launching, but I think it was unwarranted and the game deserves more praise than it got."

helicoptergirl28d ago

It was totally that bad. I couldn't finish the campaign it was so bland and boring as I recall. Got so sick of it. 1000 stimpaks on hard. It is very rare that I play half a game and then just quit. I usually always finish it. But i was so bored with this game I just stopped and never went back and never regretted it. Just thinking about that game makes me shudder

Furesis28d ago

That's exactly what happened to me too lmao
Fallout 4 is not a fallout game period it's a bethesda game

Vits28d ago

The comparison with Skyrim is mind-boggling. Yes, Skyrim has streamlined many of the systems that Morrowind introduced. However, it did not tamper with the core of the Elder Scrolls franchise; it did not diminish the freedom and sense of exploration that made Bethesda RPGs famous. Fallout 4, on the other hand, did exactly that to the Fallout series. It eliminated what made Fallout such a beloved series to play. There are no consequences for your choices, no reason to explore, and barely any interesting set pieces in the game.

It's not terrible, but it's a painfully mediocre game in a franchise that typically doesn't produce such mediocrity. So that is why people see it as bad, the bar is just much higher.

anast28d ago

They both feel the same because they are, it's just that one has swords and magic and the other has swords and guns.

anast28d ago

I'm replaying it now. It sucks. I'm about 30 hours in and thinking about quitting again. I am so tired of the dialogue I just spam a random button because it doesn't matter. The upgrade just feels like a graphical mod, everything else is not good.

Good-Smurf28d ago (Edited 28d ago )

I couldn't play the game as-is it was insanely boring and grindy and the grind itself are not fun at all.
Mods helped me stomach the game a bit better but after a while I just stopped playing and uninstalled it because the game did nothing after the first few hours to give me any motivation to keep playing it, it just became a mindless looter shooter with obsession in settlement building and defending.
Compared to F3 and FNV, F4 was barely a mediocre game it wasn't bad but it's also very forgettable entry.

MrDead28d ago

It's not that bad after 300+ mods that fix it's issues and make the game fun... but lets not talk about mods right now as they are f****d.
