I have been a strong Fallout fan since Fallout 3 and i have to say that overall Fallout 4 was a disappointing game compared to is predecessors. Not to say it was a bad game but i just did not get the same enjoyment out of like I did in Fallout 3 and Fallout NV. May contain SPOILERS.

Pros:
> You finally have a voice for your character.
> Base building
> Wide varity of weapons and modifications for the weapons.
> Somewhat of a graphic improvment from predecessors.
> Dogmeat
> Addition of 'legendary' weapons.
> Always have some sort of mission to do (thanks Preston Harvey).
> Multiple choices for story endings but its pretty much the same result at the end of the day.
> New power armor system.

Cons:
> DLC feels lazy compared to some of the DLC from NV and Fallout 3 (with the exception of the Nuka World DLC).
> most Special/Unique weapons and armor do not FEEL Special/Unique. Most of the time you can make an exact replica of a special/unique weapons by adding the approprite modifications at a workbench.
> Certain areas of the game can have major frame drops.
> Radio station have pretty much all of the same songs from previous Fallouts.
> Building Limits with base building.
> Preston Harvey
> Paid mods??

Overall I do recommend the game. Many of the Negative points of this game can be fixed with the free mods. I think my biggest issue is the DLC. I just could not get into most of the DLCs so can not recommend getting the season pass but instead individually purchasing DLC that look interesting to you. If you can pick this game up for $30 - $35 then you have a solid deal.
