Guess I am done? 45 hrs.

[Snake]

I see no other missions. Good game.

???

45 hours all the way through until the end of the story is quite quick.

Have you seen the unskipable end credits? If not, you haven't finished the game.
Even after the credits there is usually some tidying up to do. Get the last few collectables, kill off a horde, just to clear it off the map, that sort of thing.

If you rushed to the credits, then its probably the end.

End of the story is not the end of the game and the end of the game is not the end of playing. in my case it was about 30%, so you can safely assume that you still have about 120 to 150 hours waiting for you

What could have possibly taken you another 120-150 hours to complete after the story?

looking at the sky, walking through the map, watching birds, useful stuff like that. have no clue how people spend 100 hours on games that can be beaten in 40

Simple answer for that: because of them enjoying the game.
And besides the main quest, there's still stuff to do in order to finish the game at 💯%

And after a few moths or years, people might have forgotten most of the story.
So, if being in the mood for some popcorn trash zombie movie (or game) they might a NG+.
Just for enjoyment.

Here is my progress. I am suppose to get Boozers Knife, but when I go there it's gone' I think I got it earlier in the game. Rikki is suppose to work with me, but does not response.

Well, doesn't look like you finished the story.
I still see a lot of open Quests.

Sometimes you need to continue and finish another storyline first before you may continue with your main quest.

Did you already cross the mountains to the wastelands?

[Snake]

I think this Boozers arm mission is stalling the game. In what direction are the wastelands? There is no knife when I go to the location. Thanks

"Wastelands" (not sure about the real name, but its the biome where everything looks burned) is in the south on your map.
But looks like you already uncovered it.

Select one of the other quests to follow. You've got plenty of unfinished ones.
And if I recall it correctly, those story quests are dependent on each other, and you can't finish a storyline in one go.

So if you're stuck on one story quest, because no new missions appear, switch to another storyline.
After you reached a certain progress on that, new missions fo other storyline will appear

I'm pretty sure that was what happened when I played it

[simon.pete15]

The knife isn't yet a knife, you have to find the various parts, take them to Rikki, she makes the knife from the various items you have to find. It's possible you found the parts earlier when searching the area for stuff you can use. If you have, they'll all be in your inventory.

If you're still only at that point, you're probably only about half way through the complete game story. Each of those open quests will reach 100%. when the game has been completed. You've still got another area to go to, with all the quests from that area as well.

Maviba is right. All the main storylines are intertwined. You have to finish some quests in other storylines to get to the point in the whole story where other jobs open up, to progress that storyline, which then opens up another storyline quest.
I thought that this was a fairly common style of programming a game. The Tomb Raider games use a similar style for example.

[Snake]

OK, made some progress. After searching everywhere in the town got all the parts. Gave them to Rikki, but nothing happened after that??? I have no idea where Boozer is located .Crazy game, but fun.....On my way again. Found Boozer. Thanks for the help from all! I would have given up. What a choke point in the game.

You can also play the challenges and get gold medals in all of them if you are interested.

Hunting down the hordes is fun, too. Some super-intense fighting there. Also there are a few secrets that can be found post-game. One of my all-time faves and I know it's unlikely but a sequel picking up at the end of the story has SO much potential.
