Fallout 4: Game of the Year Edition includes the base game and all the following add-ons:
- Far Harbor - A new case from Valentine’s Detective Agency leads you on a search for a young woman and a secret colony of synths. Travel off the coast of Maine to the mysterious island of Far Harbor, where higher levels of radiation have created a more feral world.
- Automatron - The mysterious Mechanist has unleashed a horde of evil robots into the Commonwealth, including the devious Robobrain. Hunt them down and harvest their parts to build and mod your own custom robot companions.
- Nuka-World - Take a trip to Nuka-World, a vast amusement park now a lawless city of Raiders. Explore an all-new region with an open wasteland and park zones like Safari Adventure, Dry Rock Gulch, Kiddie Kingdom, and the Galactic Zone.
- Wasteland Workshop - With the Wasteland Workshop, design and set cages to capture live creatures – from raiders to Deathclaws! Tame them or have them face off in battle, even against your fellow settlers.
- Contraptions Workshop - Machines that sort! Machines that build! Machines that combine! With Fallout 4 Contraptions, use conveyer belts, scaffolding kits, track kits, even logic gates to construct crazy and complex gadgets to improve your Wasteland settlements.
- Vault-Tec Workshop - Build a brighter future underground with the all-new Vault-Tec Workshop. Create a massive Vault and attract new Dwellers using pre-war industrial kits complete with retro-nostalgic furniture, lighting, and art.

Not having the creation kit is a bummer.
The game itself is fairly decent, not the best title in the series but far from terrible. It explores new territory in a variety of ways. For example moving away from the system based on GURPS is controversial but I believe it's good. It made sense for the old Fallout titles where chances were solely determined by chance with respect to the characters skill. It made little sense in the 3D Titles however except for VATS which many players never even used. In Fo4 however VATS gets a lot more attention and you're missing out a lot of mechanics if you're not using it. This is a mixed blessing but it's a step in the right direction. A voiced character however is not. Especially not in the way it is implemented with only having a vague info about what the character is going to say and more often than not saying something you did not expect or wanted to say. That's a terrible idea. Also limiting everyone to just four options in any situation is taking away a lot of the RP aspect of the game. And of course whenever you command your character to say yes, the character says yes but whenever you want the character to say no, the character says maybe. It's clear Bethesda left behind a lot of the RPG aspects and shifting more towards action. I didn't appreciate this and many other didn't either. The most annoying thing in the GoG release however is that we do not get the creation kit. Same as with the Skyrim version on GoG. This is a real bummer. It's good we can use mods but why those buying on GoG are not allowed to make mods is beyond me. I've purchased the game anyway for two reasons: 1. To show Bethesda that DRM free games do in fact get sold and to hopefully get their future games on GoG much earlier than this one. 2. Because the game is certainly enjoyable. It's just not the best title in the series but still a decent game.

Far from perfect; lots of hidden details
Thanks Bethesda / GOG - if you want the rest of my money, release Starfield on GOG ASAP! TLDR review: Each time I play it I find minor hidden details items left and right - quite the experience! Bought Fallout 4 day one on PS4 - Nice FPS features versus previous installments. Other than the 30 FPS cap on PS4 it was actually more enjoyable as a console game with controllers than on PC for some reason. I have hundreds and hundreds of hours logged with at least 15 -proper- character builds (tons more to test and fool around) and I never completed the main quest for any of my characters – too bland - but the game is still great overall! 5800x3D + 6900 XT (unlocked @4K 120FPS) and still see FPS dips in Boston - quite sad to see this was never fully fixed... - Preston with his radiant quests can get quite annoying... Sad that these cannot be controlled via game options or via in-game dialogue! - Also, forcing a Charisma of 6 to get workshops is one of my majoor pet peeves with this game! - No native widescreen support and no FPS / FOV control make no sense for a recent game! P.S. I don’t understand why people complain about the HD Texture pack - the difference is SO obvious - in particular in 4K - HOWEVER some textures take around 30 seconds to come up - hope this gets fixed eventually!

Bland
After New Vegas, this is several steps back. Like Skyrim they stripped down the RPG elements to a bare minimum. Quests are generic, the open world huge but boring and bland, and the Creation Engine his hopelessly outdated. Want a great post-apocalypse simulator? But S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Shadow of Chernobyl, install the Autumn mod and forget you ever heard about Fallout.

An engrossing but shallow ocean
While I really enjoy Fallout 4 and have put a ton of hours into it, it really can't compare to previous Fallout titles in terms of story-telling or RPG-elements: It's more of an open-world looter-shooter (with mild RPG elements) than a proper RPG. This is emphasized both by the much simplified perk system and the infamous conversation wheel. However, if you avoind going into the game with the wrong expectations, you will still find an extremely worthwhile title: Bethesda's penchant for environmental story-telling and attention to detail are still very much around, so exploration and looting are a real joy. While there is some copy-and-paste for scenery going on, the environments are still huge and overall extremely varied. Both marked and unmarked side-missions are my main drive when playing this game, whereas the main story is easy to forget about (or put on the back-burner). Both major DLCs (Far Harbor, Nuka World) are great extensions - in very different ways - adding a huge amount of new content to explore. Survival Mode in particular feeds that masochistic STALKER-streak I suffer from. Other players may find endless hours of joy in building and pampering their settlements. It's important to note that the large amount of freedom also comes with drawbacks, such as a lack of direction. A ton of enjoyable content is also pretty shallow: Most optional dungeons or areas come with little side stories, like the one about a pre-war serial killer displaying his victims in the tunnels below Boston, or the hunt for a legendary historical treasure. But while these are great, they never lead to anything bigger. Haunted ruins or Lovecraftian quarries hint at greater mysteries, but never amount to anything. Similarly, many awesome little quests like the one about a Raider-killing murderer with an artistic streak end with just a little bit of loot - where an entire quest line would be warranted instead! Fallout 4 suffers from a lot of missed potential from not going deeper.
