They’re extremely fiddly to construct, the settlers are more like wallpaper than people, and the cosmetic customisation side is somewhat lacking. There’s a lot to like about settlements but only the most loyal Vault-tec employee would say Fallout 4 got it all right. Players want to make their own space in these worlds. Those are the facts, but here’s what we can glean from them.Ī major focus for Fallout 4’s development was settlements, inspired by the fact that in previous Bethesda open-world games players have always enjoyed creating their own little dens anyway. Then in May there’s Far Harbor, a story-led expansion that adds a new location and focuses on Nick Valentine, easily the game’s most charming companion. April sees the Wasteland Workshop, which adds more customisation options for settlements and what is basically a Pokemon mode, allowing you to capture enemies and make them fight each other.
The first, Automatron, features “robots, robots and more robots” and arrives in March, introducing – yes – a robotic overmind to the wasteland and a range of new enemies, as well as the ability to build your own robots from their scrap. The post-launch plans show a development studio ready to run with that success – and fix some of the stuff it didn’t get right first time. Fallout has always been a popular series but the fourth entry has now sold more than 12 million copies, making it the most successful game in the company’s history. T he first downloadable content (DLC) for Fallout 4 has been announced and, reading between the lines, it’s clear that the game has been a hit beyond even Bethesda’s expectations.
