    Definitely the best workshop add-on so far simply due to the scale of it and the additional story.

    Fallout's new editing system gains a very powerful icon with the Vaul-Tec Workshop DLC, but for the ones who love walking on the irradiated ground what happens beneath them may be not so interesting.

    After the stellar, story-based content that was “Far Harbour”, “Vault-Tec” simply underwhelms. A handful of fetch quests pad out limited crafting content. While you can go nuts and design a Vault any Overseer would be proud of, the content itself only asks that you explore a couple cave systems and build four experimental machines.

    Et il en faudra du temps pour aménager et organiser un tel abri de la cave au grenier avec -cela va de soi- tout un nouvel ensemble de légos Vault-Tec à disposition. Contrairement aux autres "workshops" proposés dans le passe saisonnier par Bethesda, le Vault-Tec est ici scénarisé un minimum (même si ça se fait rapidement) avec de la construction et quelques combats, dont une attaque impromptue de super-mutants particulièrement vénères... Ne jamais sous-estimer la défense, mille tonnerres de sabords nucléaires !

    Quelques détails de construction ne sont pas documentés mais c'est aussi ça de se démerder avec des légos techniques sans le mode d'emploi, sans doute atomisé depuis belle lurette. En tout cas, voilà qui prolonge un peu plus la durée de vie du génialissime Fallout 4 !    … Expand

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

While not totally bad if you enjoy that, the game isnt a construction similutator and wasn't sold as that. Vault tec workshop, while not as bad as Contraptions (which insanely created complicated settlement mechanics which will satisify 3-4% of the fanbase, DLC should be for 97% to enjoy!!) does provide what I think a lot of people secretly wanted, their own underground vault! The questline is short and not fully fleshed out, but there is a lot of new settlement content. Unfortunatley by this point I have my mainbase of operations and spending another 10 hours creating a vault seems very tedious. Bethesda DLC with this game has really lost its way and is a far cry away from the quality from Fallout 3 and New Vegas. Betheda was once the RPG king and this DLC highlights its decline. It creates easy content and neglects what the fans actually crave. Here is to hope that Nuka World is a nice end to an overall pretty poor DLC package.… Expand

    In complete honesty i really did want to like this DLC, I truly did, as does anyone who played Fallout 3 for the first time in 2008 from running down the hallways of vault 101, to knocking out Jonas and your Dad with a BB gun during your 10th birthday. Instead when playing the DLC all i ended up feeling was absolute disappointment and frustration from the restrictions and limitations that the vault offered.

    When starting the DLC i hurried over to Vault 88 (The DLC's location) with the intention of building my Vault ASAP, instead what i found was a tacked on story and a grind of enemies that was already beginning to make me bored, so much so that after actually entering the vault I murdered the overseer on impulse to put a quick end to the story content. However in doing this i found that i permanently locked off building sections of the map leaving me only the initial areas to build off of in order to build my vault. Reloading a previous save i then decided that i was going to do things a little more legitimately by working towards expanding my perimeters to make one big vault even if it meant doing so called story content to get there.

    After spending 3 painful hours doing these quests I was ready to begin when long and behold found that i could not make the vault i wanted let alone achieve some of the basic features of vault such as connecting different rooms or even install a door between 2 rooms. After discovering this i then moved unto some of the of the other vault features which not so surprisingly were about as limited as the area in which your vault is built.

    In the end i only ended up playing this DLC for the achievements it gave and left an unfinished vault that will forever serve as a monument towards how unfinished this DLC feels    … Expand

    With this latest addition to their seemingly endless run of shoddy poorly thought out broken and forgettable releases bethesda has once againWith this latest addition to their seemingly endless run of shoddy poorly thought out broken and forgettable releases bethesda has once again shown everyone that they could not care less about their customers. Remember when todd howard told us that we could run experiments in a vault of our own? That was a lie. You build 4 small machines that do absolutely nothing and have one guy test them and that's it. You build the vault, (If you can get the garbage snap points to work that is). Do those four fast and simple things and you're done. And once you build the machines you can't build any others. even though in the teaser trailer you can clearly see multiples of said machines in use by vault dwellers.

    We can now add false advertising to the plethora of reasons why this company is complete trash. Todd howard and zenimax have turned this once proud studio into a worthless husk of it's former self that is staffed by the most incompetent coders on the planet. Don't waste your time or money on this piece of trash or any other bethesda products for that matter. This dlc is a joke, How these morons managed to take such a simple and easy to flawlessly pull off concept and utterly screw it up by making it a trivial boring and shallow crap fest is beyond me.    … Expand
