There are stories hidden everywhere in 'Fallout 4'

Bethesda Game Studios

I genuinely believed that, if I played enough "Fallout 4," I would see everything the game has to offer.

I was wrong. 

Bethesda Game Studios, the developers behind "Fallout 4," added so much detail to the game that I'm bound to miss something no matter how much I play, no matter how hard I try to find everything.

One Reddit user's experience with a small side story in "Fallout 4" is a perfect example of just how jam-packed the game is with stories.

The Reddit user's captions says: "I heard a settler fall into the water while working on the Warwick Homestead. I thought he just walked off my unfinished building." 

That's totally something that would happen in most other games, and you wouldn't think anything of it. The artificial intelligence programmed into a game's characters can malfunction. It happens. 

Not in this case, though.

The Reddit user discovered that the settler, named Bill Sutton, "actually committed suicide. :( " Searching the body revealed that Bill had a "Goodbye Letter."

And what's in the goodbye letter? It's from Bill's wife, who left him due to...well, you'll see:

And here's page two:

Pretty devastating, right?

There's an entire, rich story going on in the background here that you could've easily never experienced. This is the level of detail that Bethesda puts into its games, and it makes all the difference. It's a big part of why I can't stop playing "Fallout 4."

Anyway, if you thought you were the only one with problems in the nuclear wasteland, you're not. Clearly.
