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.
Bethesda Game Studios, the award-winning creators of Fallout 3 and The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, welcome you to the world of Fallout 4 – their most ambitious game ever, and the next generation of open-world gaming.
As the sole survivor of Vault 111, you enter a world destroyed by nuclear war. Every second is a fight for survival, and every choice is yours. Only you can rebuild and determine the fate of the Wasteland. Welcome home.
Key Features:
Freedom and Liberty!
Do whatever you want in a massive open world with hundreds of locations, characters, and quests. Join multiple factions vying for power or go it alone, the choices are all yours.
You’re S.P.E.C.I.A.L!
Be whoever you want with the S.P.E.C.I.A.L. character system. From a Power Armored soldier to the charismatic smooth talker, you can choose from hundreds of Perks and develop your own playstyle.
Super Deluxe Pixels!
An all-new next generation graphics and lighting engine brings to life the world of Fallout like never before. From the blasted forests of the Commonwealth to the ruins of Boston, every location is packed with dynamic detail.
Violence and V.A.T.S.!
Intense first or third person combat can also be slowed down with the new dynamic Vault-Tec Assisted Targeting System (V.A.T.S) that lets you choose your attacks and enjoy cinematic carnage.
Collect and Build!
Collect, upgrade, and build thousands of items in the most advanced crafting system ever. Weapons, armor, chemicals, and food are just the beginning - you can even build and manage entire settlements.
Please note that the DRM-Free version of Fallout 4 GOTY does not include the Creation Club feature. For a premium modding experience, we recommend Nexus Mods, which provides free access to tens of thousands of amazing modifications, and hundreds of curated collections.
As someone who has played most Fallout games, Fallout 4 is far from being the worst one in the series, especially when Interplay fumbled with the IP and conjured the abomination that is Brotherhood of Steel as a last desperate attempt to cash in on the PS2 hype.
That said, the game is not without its problems. The main story and the voiced protagonist severlely limit the amount of roleplaying that was present in the series, Bethesda's overreliance on radiant quests for one of the main factions: the minutemen (which I recommend to avoid on every playthrough since they're optional) puts a damper on the overall enjoyment of the game since said quests tend to lock you into a very boring gameplay loop. Still, I found myself greatly enjoying the rest of the side content, DLCs and main story by just choosing other factions.
It's a very controversial entry for the franchise but, personally, it ended up being one of my favorites along with FNV and Fallout 1.
There was one game that has kept me locked on Steam and that was Fallout 4. While Steam is all nice as a library, I prefer to not have DRM in my games as recently a bug of 'cannot verify ownership' errors have started to occur with Ubisoft games.
I did not even blink twice fetching the GOG version of this pup.
I presume that CK does not work on the GOG version of the game, but if we got it to work with Skyrim, we get it to work with FO4 too.
I am sure the actual game reviews have been posted 100 times over by other people since 2015 already. It is a good game but comes with all the classic Bethesda weaknesses and strengths. My Steam shows 1500h on this game, and twice as much in Creation Kit.
He, he... but Starfield, when? ;)
I have over 480 hours on Steam in Fallout 4. I have been replacing my games on Steam with ones on GOG when they become available. I don't like having to run the Steam client, here I don't have to run Galaxy, and I like that. As I understand the Bethesda "Mods" won't be on the menu, that's fine, I use Vortex for my mods, which I have downloaded already in a folder. At least I won't burn up my data having to re-download the 93GB of it from Steam several times because of a problem. I have a 1.4TB data cap per month, and I had to download the game so many times getting it to work right, it about had me reach my data cap. No more of that.
Bethesda left this in a really bad buggy state, and GOG have not to date fixed some awful problems with the game ..
But the public community have fixed everything that needs to be fixed.
So once fixed (see more below), this game is a blast. I love Cyberpunk 2077, but I still play this old time distopian themed game because it has really good atmosphere, some genuine scary moments, excellent modding support still being developed today, and heaps of fun. The comedy situational details are wonderful, like Super mutants comments when they have detected you, Bethesda did do a good job on the humour.
Fixes which I think are essential :
UFO4P - https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/4598
CFM - https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/74945
WMF - https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/11130
(Also if using WMF you will also need a patch from CFM files)
F4SE - https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/42147
You need F4SE for the following two F4SE Plugins ..
High FPS Physics fix - https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/44798
And if you have an NVidia GPU ..
Weapon Debris Crash fix - https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/48078
HFPS Physics fix solves quite a few things Bethesda & GOG have not fixed, some awful long loading problems between "worlds" (going indoors and outdoors), and mor FPS problems - Be warned though and be sure to edit the .ini file, for all the FPS settings set them to 60, otherwise the game will be free to try and melt your computer.
Weapon Debris Crash fix - By default the GOG Game does not have Weapon Debris selected in the Games Launcher advanced setting, but the moment you set it (and if you have an NVidia GPU) the game will crash when you load it without this mod being installed.
Mechanists Lair Pathfinding Fix - https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/68417?tab=posts
Without this, when you enter the Mechanists Lair and after so far in you will eventually crash.
There is another Mechanist Lair overhaul mod that also fixes the same problem, but it has a deleted Navmesh so personally I would avoid it. This mod solves Companion / NPC pathing inside this area.
Previsibines Repair Pack - https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/46403?tab=description
This solves some pretty complicated precombined meshes and occlusion (previs) problems.
Thats all that I would recommend as essential for a bug free / crash free game .. Read the descriptions carefully for each one .. Anything else you install is your problem.
With just the ones I have linked the game is bloody marvellous :).
Oh one more recommendation : BethINI - https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/67
It gets rid of a heap of ini settings which dont really apply (something else Bethesda need to take a good review of, seeing as they use all these settings from one game to the next Oblivion/Skyrim/Fallout but never weed out what is not relevant anymore). On modern machines the Ultra button is still a bit too much imho, especially for Laptops :
click the High button ..
Enable recommended Tweaks,
Enable Windowed Mode and Borderless,
Set Anisotropic Filtering to 16x,
Select the resolution you want to display the game in,
Edit the other settings to your liking, such as the FOV value or if you want to have subtitles,
Save and exit.
After all of that .. Enjoy a superb game.
Bethesda / GOG .. You are lazy shits leaving it in this state.
