Fallout 4's loading times can feel like an eternity, especially when you're eager to explore the wasteland. A major reason for the slow loading is due to the game's huge open world and the vast amount of data it needs to process. High-quality textures, detailed environments, and complex NPC interactions all contribute to longer loading times. If you're playing on PC, an SSD can drastically reduce these times. Also, reducing the graphics settings can help speed things up a bit.

It's all about the tech specs, pal. Fallout 4 is a beast of a game with loads to load. If your rig or console is on the older side, you're gonna feel it in the loading screens. Toss an SSD into your setup or dial back those graphics settings for a bit of relief.

Slow loading? Welcome to the future, where even virtual reality has traffic jams.

Honestly, just use the loading time to grab some snacks. One does not simply rush the apocalypse.
