^ I don't doubt it, sadly. Exploring is half the fun in games like that, but in FO:NV with every opportunity to explore came the question: Do I really want to spend the better part of two to three minutes at a loading screen just to see what is beyond that door or in that cave, plus another two to three minutes at a loading screen when I come back out again?

EDIT: Oops, thought you said Elder Scrolls V and that we were still on the subject of the next console gen being due. Not sure where my head is. Perhaps I should go to the Q&A thread and inquirer.
