9 years later, I finally played fallout 4
9 years later, I finally played fallout 4
Having dropped New Vegas in the past due to lost interest, I decided to try this game out finally since a friend of mine was having a fallout 3 playthrough himself. It was it 8 bucks, so I figured why not. I have to say, I put way more hours into this game than both other Bethesda games I've played through (Skyrim and Oblivion) before even finishing the main quest line. The combat was excellent in my opinion, and I (seem to be in the minority of people who) really liked the story. The choices it forces you to make sometimes really had me feeling emotional at times. I also played it with some minor mods installed, just some custom outfits and real world guns for immersion. Nothing to break the story or anything, though there are a few DLC sized mods I'm eyeing up to play in the future. Overall I seriously enjoyed this game, I've noticed online it seems to be regarded as one of the least popular mainline games but I think it's become my favourite Bethesda game I've tried so far honestly. Seriously recommend anyone who hasn't played this yet to at least give it a try. It really pulled me in.
Edit: Since I'm done with F4, got New Vegas running with some nice mods to add gritty aesthetics and real world weapons. Giving it another try 6 years after I initially tried it and so far I'm way more into it!

I definitely plan to get the season pass in the future if I can catch it on sale as well! I definitely wouldn't say I'm done with the game as a whole, but for the time being I am just waiting to pick up the DLC.

Do a Child of Atom playthrough, if you haven't already.
Rush to Far Harbor and acquire the Robes of Atom's Devoted and end the DLC by destroying FH for the perk. Wear the robes, get irradiated until almost dead (above 900 rads) and congratulations, you now deal double damage, are immune to radiation and ignore the effects of rads on your HP bar.
there I go installing again
Nuka World is a ton of fun and
Thematically, I prefer Far Harbor. And Nuka World's big selling point was letting you play as a raider, which didn't appeal much to me. But I'm pretty sure that Nuka World has more stuff.
I've never been able to make myself play as a raider. I free everybody every time. I really love the environments and the combat in the different faction camps is intense there's so many of them!
Yeah...I guess I shouldn't be so negative. I mean, I had fun with it, and I certainly think that it's a worthwhile purchase, along with the other Fallout 4 DLC. Just that I didn't want to play through a fair bit of the content, whereas in the base game, I was fine playing any of the "faction" routes.
And, I dunno. If someone does want to play as a raider and enslave settlements, they can do that. I don't have a moral objection to someone else doing that, and I know that many people do feel like they don't get to play "evil" routes enough in games. Just wasn't something that I wanted to do.
