Did I rush?

[bee]

I've finished the main story with the institute at level 41. What were your levels when you finished?

[★Brosef]

I unno....70?

[Alexoferith]

Are you playing at the easiest difficulty? I am playing normal and I am at level 72. No where near ending. Just got the quest to get into Institute HQ for the first time (got the chip from killing a courser).

level 56 not finished

[Mansen]

18...28 at the most.

From Youtube videos, I think people were using XP glitches to get to level 240 without finishing the game. Personally, this totally destroy the enjoyment of the game. Mind you, some people enjoyed finding and exploiting any glitch in any game. I did follow such thing for Skyrim. Totally reduced the enjoyment of the game. I mean I could build, oh, I forgot now, high quality armour just a few hours after the start of the game. Making killing too easy. got bored. so, in Fallout 4, I didn't do it. Well, I did, just once, testing out the caps glitch in Fallout 4. Didn't quite get the hand of it. But decided not to follow it up. Now, got to level 72 by building settlements. I have to say, walking slowing all the time did take a lot of patience, a lot of tea and cigarettes.

I was also level 45 or something however there is still lots to do however I didn't do any railroad or institute quests.

around 20...I tend to rush... :/

[Chop]

Yes, you rushed, I am level 51 and just under halfway through the story.

[Mumboejumboh]

I think I was ~64. I mostly just went "Enh, I can still wander around afterwards so I'll buckle down and finish the main story". So I did.

After the halfway point in the main story there's not really an imperative to finishing things quickly...and technically speaking there's never a real reason for your character to rush out into the wasteland.

Edit: Also you can't really "rush" the story. I mean you can just...go and do it. I think the only way you could even rush it would be if you ONLY did the main story and at that point you might wind up underleveled for the part where you get sent into the glowing sea.

Mid 70's, but I did alot of exploring. Was probably 55 before I even went to Diamond City.

like you say,, "personal enjoyment" is purely personal.
1 mans way of playing games is another mans poison.
personally for me, theres no need to waste time expoilting glitches when the console command system is so extensive.
i spawn and create my own mini games/checkpoint objectives in between 2 points of A & B.

60+ hrs of watching video footage of the game and preppin bat txt files before i even bought the game.
45+ hrs into the game and i still havnt "entered the museum" to meet preston yet.
i think im about level 20, which is basically nothing.

mods + high difficulty + "spawncraft" = epic open world gaming.

ive got over 2600 hrs in payday 2.
im so glad FO4 is a really great game.
ive been after something like this since the stalker series finished.
nice...

O.O

70 when I finished the main story and 80 when I finished my first play through.

If you finished at 41 and don't continue to do all the side quests then yes you have rushed the game.

[Brehagge]

28 i think...XD
