Why all the arguing about fall out 3?
The game is Oblivion with a new skin.
Oblivion/Fallout3 is not for everybody.
A lot of people were dissapointed with what alot of games like mass effect and fable1 promised which is game altering consequences in an expanse deep open world. Those games were great if all you want is rich fleshed out cinematic dialogue, a great linear story but with limited exploration.
Other rpg gamers want a game that throws every option and possibility in a giant world with endless opportunities and re-playabillity with the sacrifice of quality voice acting, and story (FO3 trys but i do agree i dont give a fuck about my fathers whereabouts/situation)
Also the quick travel can only be used once you been to that location already. So the game developers do in fact force you to see the huge world they created. And not everything is on the map and available for quick travel.
Imagine if everybody who bought GTA3 only wanted to play it for its missions and never have the urge to explore and fuck off... Game developers have an idea of what way they want their audience to be entertained. Sometimes that misses the mark and you shouldn't take it so personal.
I never blamed Capcom for making me hate a great series like resident evil. I understand the game is popular for a reason, but my gaming style just does not work with that games formula. (I will shamefully admit that Nintendo's infamous "Super Mario Bros." is in the same category)
Fallout3 is a great game, when in the hands of its intended audience.
