×10.įar harbour and nuka world are by themself msp wize (new places) so they don't affect the main story much. Maybe saw 2 robot groups and a few dust after I finished it (when your going to the last place takemeds and ammo. The robot dlc is the one that may affect the game map the most with the rust devals and random bots around. the bace building ( let me mark that on your map). but then there's the other 3 groups you can side with. Thanks again and hope all of you have a great day! I'm definitely uninstalling them again the way I was playing before this last game. But for now, thanks to your feedback and my experience so far. Then, once I beat it (if I ever do lol) then I'll go ahead and experience the DLC's (maybe 1 at a time). Definitely going to uninstall all of the DLC's again and play good 'ole F4 by itself again. Originally posted by OldFatGuy:Thanks guys very much for your feedback. Problem is, the Minutemen are essential to the ending of the main quest. Depending on how you handle it, it can cause tons of problems and annoyances. Without spoiling too much, if you want to experience the entire DLC properly and see most of the quests and rewards, you have to make a decision that severely harms your standing with the Minutemen. None of the other DLCs add encounters like Automatron does to the commonwealth.Īs for do any of the DLCs make the game 'less fun', all I can think of is Nuka World, as it's designed against the interests of the players. So I fail to see how this is 'a different game' to you just because you have more fusion cores, when they were already plentiful in the base game, even without any perks to prolong them or find more ammo. The vanilla game throws them at you like candy as your level increases. I don't think them giving you fusion cores is causing a new problem of managing your usage of them. If the game is any less fun for me, it's only because they are hostile to all factions and end up starting fights (and often ending them) before I even get a chance to explore an area or engage enemies on my own. but literally everywhere you go in the commonwealth. However yes, it's one of the things people always point out, that starting the DLC's quest results in nonstop attacks from Rust Devils, not even just on your settlements. When you finish the Automatron DLC they attacks aren't as frequent. though I did at least listen to the distress signal from Vault 88) could you also tell me now if any of the others do as well? (I haven't 'activated' any of the others yet. If there are others out there that feel this DLC makes the game less fun.

Sorry for the length (commone problem for me. But maybe if I give it more time? I dunno, would just like to hear others thoughts. But it's another entirely when the DLC makes the base game itself less fun. I mean it's one thing for some DLC to be sort of crappy. Do you guys feel like the Automoton DLC makes the game less fun? Especially if you're Lone Wanderer (I never, EVER, travel with companions) and don't take advantage of the opportunity to build your own robots? Now maybe I haven't given it enough time to make a definitive decision yet. not enough Fusion Cores to use it all the time (which I think is the way it was intended). I had to plan when I wanted to use Power Armor. I think I've got 27 fusion cores since all of these battles began. let's just say rationing Fusion Cores is a thing of the past. Plus, with the loot you get from the encounters with robots. In fact, since finding the caravan and Ada, the only encounter I've had that wasn't robots was the 'scripted' one in College square (which is all Ghouls). I mean, it seems like every darn encounter now is with robots. disappointed? (might be too strong a word). lol, Ive still never beaten the game so I decided to try this game with all of the DLC's included.Īnd I'm. I wanted to beat the game, plain vanilla with no DLC's, and then try it with the DLCs. no mods) but almost ALL of that was without most of the DLC's (even though I got the Season Pass at the same time I got F4).
