By allowing you to become a raider, Nuka World takes Fallout 4 down a, interesting path it’s never been before. Whilst this road may not suit all play styles, overall the DLC still offers an enjoyable and unique Fallout experience. With the addition of new craftable items, enemies, factions, weapons and more, Nuka World delivers a strong finish to the Fallout 4 franchise. If one thing is clear from Nuka World – it’s that you will live long enough to see yourself become the villain. And if you’re already one, this is the DLC you’ve been hoping for.
Overall, the game is far from perfect, but if you take it at face value as a standard beat ‘em up game, it will surprise you with its deep story and unique Nekro system. If you’re looking to kill some time, pop some skulls and have a spare $20 AUD, I’d definitely recommend giving it a playthrough.
My main issue with this DLC is that having to hop between Far Harbor and The Commonwealth to help out my settlements made it difficult to stay truly immersed in the story. One of my favorite things about the Fallout 3 and New Vegas add-ons was that you could leave the main campaign behind without a worry, and just have fun with the DLC storyline. This decision lowers your engagement with the story and at times is downright frustrating, but that being said, it fit with the Fallout 4 style of the world still turning without you.
