   Thoroughly enjoyed my time, and got exactly what I expected. Its a $10 DLC so I did not expect it to be the size of say The Lonesome Road orThoroughly enjoyed my time, and got exactly what I expected. Its a $10 DLC so I did not expect it to be the size of say The Lonesome Road or Point Lookout. I expected something more on par with the Courier's Arsenal pack and was therefore very pleased to find the DLC to be a fair bit larger. It has a story with a rather fun plot twist at the end, and despite glitches and bugs Automatron still left a good taste in my mouth and has me ready for future DLCs to be released.… Expand

The quests themselves are short, but They all have some pretty exciting combat. The new robot enemies you'll encounter are downright savage at times. They pack a lot of firepower and can often take a lot of punishment. It's best you bulk up before tackling these dungeons.
   
   This leads to some really intense firefights that can be quite a blast. The final dungeon drags on for a bit and at the end forces you to go through a lengthy series of waves before it's conclusion, but for the most part battling it out with these robots were some of the most enjoyable combat encounters I've had playing the game. Even better is looting these robots afterwards and taking their parts to build your own robot companions.
   
   Now I'm not big into the crafting side of things, but just having the option to build and customize my own robot companions is really cool. It eats through your supplies to do so and you need the right perks to really see every possibility, but you can still get a kick out of customizing the DLC's new companion "Ada."
   
   Ada ties directly into the DLC's story. She introduces you to the new robot crafting mechanics and can be customized to your liking. However it's her personality and effectiveness in combat that quickly made her one of my new favorite companions.
   
   So you get robot building, a few quests, a new companion, and some other toys to play with. The question is whether the DLC is worth downloading. Admittedly people like myself who really don't do much crafting are likely going to find the DLC a little barren due to the short nature of the quests. However if you've got the season pass the combat and extra goodies are still worth a look. The $9.99 asking price might make it a little bit harder to justify for those without it. This is really one for the hardcore crafters. Those with all the perks can get a kick out what they can create.
   
   In the end it's some more options and quests for Fallout 4. It doesn't offer the greatest amount of content, but what it does offer is solid and fun. For those looking for extra stuff to do in the Commonwealth this provides more Fallout 4 to enjoy. Those who need something more substantial to justify returning to the wastelands might want to look elsewhere. Personally, even if it's not all the much I can't complain too much about more Fallout 4.

   Should have been in game from the start.
   
   A few hours of content at best for 10$. Generic story, generic villain. Buy hey, customizableShould have been in game from the start.
   
   A few hours of content at best for 10$. Generic story, generic villain. Buy hey, customizable robot companions and a couple new weapons that you'll probably never use are cool, right? Overall this gives returning players no real reason to play any more than the few meager missions it offers. I expected more from Bethesda.… Expand
