A lot of entertainment for the money
Fallout 4 does some things really well and other things not so well. But, in my opinion, the good things outshine the bad and, honestly, the bad things aren't really "awful" but rather "disappointing". The gunplay feels great, exploration & discovery are rewarding, the settlement building is brilliant and the companions & their backstories are, mostly, well done. The disappointments were the shallow dialogue options, the bad gun design (the famous "assault rifle", for instance), the lazy way the enemies scaled up (spoiler: they just become more bullet spongey) and the fact every single playthrough felt the same regardless of how you played. I never got the feeling that I was affecting the world in any meaningful way, positive or negative and I couldn't play through the game as an antagonist, selecting evil dialogue options. But that aside, I've had a tonne of fun with FO4 over the years, which I bought on Steam at release. A lot of folks seem to hate on this game simply because "It's not like Fallout New Vegas", which I'm not sure I fully understand. FO4 is a stepping stone in the evolution of the franchise and bridges the gap between FO3 and FO5. New Vegas felt like a separate, arguably superior, game in its own right and F76 was simply an MMO experiment which, for the most part, failed. Even if you're on the fence and only considering the base game, it's still worth buying the DLC for no other reason than because it's a pre-requisite for installing and running Sim Settlements 2. Sim Settlements 2 is a community mod with extraordinary production values and boasting some first class voice acting and extremely well-written storylines. It's so good and there's so much content to be found, that it could shine as its own separate game. Think along the lines of the relationship between DayZ and Arma 2... After 1700+ hours, I can't really grumble about my time in FO4 and the GOTY edition is a bonkers price. I can whole heartedly recommend it.
