    I've always been a first person shooter type of gamer but liked fallout 4 as an RPG because of its excellent shooting mechanics. I have spent a lot of time building my settlements, and developing my character because I enjoyed the game and the unique companions, along with the perk system.

    Unfortunately this DLC seems pretty weak. I played it on very hard mode, not survival, but still was completed in around 3 hours. I guess if you compare it to the price of an "OK" movie, you won't be disappointed.
    Hopefully Bethesda steps up their game and makes it a little more challenging, along with more content in the upcoming DLC's.
    If not this will be my first and last Fallout    … Expand

    The DLC is about 1 hour long and it could of been longer if they not done a stupid thing with unlocking every single robot mod after final quest is completed which in my opinion was a stupid thing to do coz they could of made the DLC longer by letting the player go out and hunt for special/legendary or just simple robot mods that could of made the DLC longer and more worth its asking priceThe DLC is about 1 hour long and it could of been longer if they not done a stupid thing with unlocking every single robot mod after final quest is completed which in my opinion was a stupid thing to do coz they could of made the DLC longer by letting the player go out and hunt for special/legendary or just simple robot mods that could of made the DLC longer and more worth its asking price which is £7.99.… Expand

    Short and not interesting. To much fighting. Missions include cleaning another room and room. No decision, no interesting characters, nothing special...

    Mediocre Game and an Insult to every Fallout-Veteran. Still better than F76 tho. DONT BUY!

    Cant see enemies. Dont know where they shooting from. Dogmeat gets in the way while i am looting. Asking me to kill raiders in a factory or some crap but the raiders dont come to me! I must find them and then kill them? Grenade markers are worthless. CRAP GAME WASTE OF TIME. STUPID BETHESDA. EAT 0 NOOB DEVS. CANT EVEN MAKE GAME THESE STUPID DEVS.

    I don’t know what makes me angrier, that Automatron is a hollow and boring bit of DLC, or that it actually made me have to reinstall Fallout 4 on my PS4.

    A bunch of new items and weapons, with a new companion and a huge amount of exploring to be done, there’s little reason Automatron shouldn’t be on your radar.

    With Automatron Bethesda has shrewdly managed to zero in on one already compelling point of Fallout 4's experience, dropping in a new twist that solidly expands on that point in an interesting new way. As such, it's a perfect add-on for those either experiencing the wasteland for the first time or returning for a new play-through. It's simplistic and short story component means that it arguably doesn't have enough content to actually draw you back in on its own, and that's a shame, but if more Fallout 4 is on the cards for you already and you love customization, there's a strong argument for playing it with Automatron attached.
