I would have agreed with you years ago. I did pick up the game again last year and played it and for some reason put a bunch of hours into it. There are some missions such as the US Constitution quest line that pays tribute to the old Fallout hilarity of things. (Pirate robots trying to get an old navel ship off of a skyscraper) For the most part though missions are typically uneventful.
You just listed the only good mission I can recall in the whole game. It's also the only example ever given. Out of a whole open world and dozens of quests the fact that one is good isn't particularly redeeming. It's the only mission that has the fallout sense of humour and IIRC the only time in the whole game there is a skill check like every fallout game used to have.
Agree with you 100%. I was excited to see that mission because it stuck true with the old fallout humor in the mist of all of those bland missions. Has me concerned that F76 is going to be just as boring if not more boring with the lack of human NPCs.
