4. Interior Loading & Seamless Exploration

Something of a small bugbear that makes all the difference (just ask Yakuza 6), past Fallouts instancing every part of the world separately lead to a LOT of load times, when it would be remarkable to have interiors ready and waiting on the other side of a doorway.

According to Bethesda, Fallout 76 is 16x more detailed than Fallout 4 - though whether that means open-world detail, texturing or that work has been done when meshing the world together, we'll have to wait and see.
