Can we talk about the vaults?...
Gotta say I'm gonna be salty about this for a long time because to me this was probably my favourite part about any Fallout game, finding and exploring the Vaults and I feel Bethesda really dropped the ball with this since it only had 4 (honestly I don't count 111)
114 was just a stage setting for the quest to find Nick, besides those hollotapes there really wasn't anything to it. 95 felt like a typical dungeon to just kill Gunners in with a bit of back story on the vault which wasn't bad. 75 at least had a side quest tied to it where you got to explore it and find out what happened (but it was also another dungeon to yet again kill Gunners in) 81, the only vault I really liked because of how unique it was in the fact that it hadn't gone to hell and had actual living people (the look I had on my face when I opened the door only to be interrupted over the intercom by someone)
The greatest part was the eerily feeling you'd get as you activate the door and watch the hulking thing creak and grind open as you're about to be the first person to step inside in 200 years, yeah... there was none of that whatsoever in Fallout 4
All in all it was really lacking compared to previous games and I hope there are more added in future DLC's
