The maze-like tunnels took me much longer to explore and clear out than I was expecting. I have to admit, I was shocked at how much underground space could be used for building and decorating. The premise of the DLC is that it gives players the freedom to turn a network of underground tunnels into a personalized Vault-Tec vault, and it does deliver. Other content, such as Wasteland Workshop, Contraptions Workshop and the new Vault-Tec Workshop serve as expansions to the crafting systems in Fallout 4, rather than being story-focused adventures.īecause of the story-free nature of the other Workshop add-ons, I was surprised when Vault-Tec Workshop opened with a quest that led me to a brand new Vault in the Commonwealth Wasteland - Vault 88.Īlthough Vault-Tec Workshop features several quest missions, they merely serve as stepping stones to introduce players to the new vault-themed items that are available to craft.

Some content, such as Automatron and Far Harbor were story-based with new enemies, locations and questlines to accompany them. I’ve been playing each of Fallout 4’s DLCs as they’ve launched, and in the interests of full disclosure, I was given a season pass from Bethesda to write about them. I’m hijacking his column to offer my impressions on Fallout 4‘s latest DLC - Vault-Tec Workshop, which is developed and published by Bethesda for Xbox One, PS4 and PC. It’s an exercise in offering a quick recommendation (or dismissal) after spending enough time to grasp the ideas and gameplay of a thing without necessarily playing it from A to Z. In it he discusses general impressions, ideas and thoughts on any given game he’s playing, but not reviewing. Brad Gallaway recently rolled out a new column titled This Is Not A Review.
