It’s fun, but it sometimes sucks, and would probably be a lot easier if you just did it differently. I’ve always felt that the crafting system in Fallout 4 is a lot like playing ice hockey with a spatula. It is a workshop DLC after all, so be prepared for another injection of parts and pieces to play with in Fallout 4’s notoriously awkward crafting system. Which brings us to the key feature of the DLC. Perfect for Diamond City Radio and Chill.
However, the materials you can scavenge are pretty abundant, and you’ll be getting started in no time. Sprinkled with relatively high level enemies, most of the early starters will have trouble getting anything done, and survival mode players will probably want to plan their every move. The cavern/settlement’s total limit is unlikely to allow the player to use all that space anyway, so a lot of it is probably going to go to waste when building a vault, unless you’re smarter than me and figure something out. Probably a few times bigger than Sanctuary Hills, the area could easily be accused of being just too big, if it wasn’t for the abundance of scrap and materials scattered throughout it. Housing Vault 88, the cavern itself is the biggest buildable area we’ve seen so far. See where this is going? – Vault-Tec Workshop gives the player access to this giant subterranean jackpot and challenges them to finish what Vault Tec started by building Vault 88 as they see fit, albeit slightly behind schedule.
Vault 88 was still being constructed when the bombs fell two centuries ago, and the enormous cavern it was supposed to be nestled snugly inside of is still there, vast and full of sweet, sweet resources to plunder. Well, it seems ‘another settlement needs your help’, and it’s a brand new one at that. So is Fallout 4’s final workshop DLC up to regulation standards? What does it add to Fallout 4 that we haven’t seen already? Let’s dig a little deeper (get it? It’s a Vault joke. Fallout 4’s newest workshop DLC is the biggest workshop yet, and even comes along with a cheeky little quest line to sweeten the deal.
