A cornerstone of any good RPG (or for that matter, any game with certain RPG elements) is the loot that you get. This is true whether it be Borderlands and it’s infinite variations of weapons, Destiny and it’s large array of perks that can fundamentally render a weapon useless, and most recently, Fallout 4. Unlike other games however, Fallout 4 ...

What’s In Fallout 4’s Nuka-World DLC and is it worth it?
One of the largest (and most valid) complaints about Fallout 4 is that the game didn’t really give you many opportunities to be evil. Sure, you could go around insulting people and killing somewhat indiscriminately, but your options were rather limited when compared to the things you could do in Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas. With Fallout 4’s Nuka-World DLC however, this ...

With just two DLCs left for Fallout 4, it should come as no surprise that the last two are intended to be the biggest DLCs for the game. In Fallout 4’s Vault-Tec Workshop DLC, it is advertised that you can build your own Vault however you like, letting you basically create your own underground settlement from scratch but with clean looking ...

At almost half the price of a full retail game, Fallout 4’s Far Harbor DLC is unquestionably one of the more expensive DLCs for any game in recent memory. Although it was advertised as the largest singular piece of DLC that Bethesda has done to date, it isn’t really much of a comparison when all of their previous games were ...

Automatron is the first DLC release for last year’s brilliant Fallout 4. When it launched, we gave the game a 9 out of 10, calling it a “must-play.” With the game already being quite good and previous Fallout DLC being some of the best around, Automatron has a high standard to meet. While it doesn’t add too much in the way of story content, the ...

Originally, Fallout 4’s Survival difficulty simply modifies how much damage your enemies can do and receive; a fairly primitive method of making a game more difficult. Soon, Survival difficulty will be revamped entirely so that you won’t simply have to deal with shooting someone a bit more to kill them. And in the near future, Super-Survival mode will push the ...

In Fallout: New Vegas, you could choose between several fairly standard difficulty settings. If you wanted to, you could also choose to turn on Hardcore mode, a setting that can cause you to question your life choices. Among other things, Hardcore mode made it so that your character can suffer from dehydration, hunger, etc., and best of all, each individual ...

If you’ve played Fallout 4, then you probably already know of the greatest companion ever, Preston Garvey. To the enemies that you meet in the main game, he goes by many names: the Settlement Sergeant, the Colonial Crusader, the Boston Boy Scout, and on the list goes. That may be all fine and dandy for the existing enemies of the ...

Following up on one of the largest game releases in recent history, Bethesda has just announced that Fallout 4 will receive a substantial amount of DLC content. Among other things, you will get to go to Maine (to exterminate some dirty synths, if that’s what you’re into), fight the Mechanist and his robots in the Commonwealth, and capture some of the Commonwealth’s ...
