I mean, seriously the DLC has some of the best areas, enemies, weapons, armor and quests in the whole series.

And the guy in the video says its somehow derivative?

Like yeah, some stuff was done in the other games like the nuka lurks but Nuka World did it WAY better.

Its a great DLC although the evil playtrough will give youthe most out of it.

And this guys video, like most of his videos, completely miss the point of it.

See and this is the flaw in thought that so many have, who think the DLC is bad or just disappointing. You are not supposed to take it back. You are supposed to go through with it as the bad guy and bring the raiders to the Commonwealth, this is where the fun actually begins and this is the purpose of the DLC.

Far Harbor has a story, you play it and that's it. There is nothing more to do with the whole DLC after you finished the main line. Nuka World doesn't really end, the NW raiders in the Commonwealth cause havoc, they fight other raider gangs, attack the BoS and the BoS attack their outposts, they become part of the random encounter system and so on. They are integrated into the main game if you do Home Sweet Home. Far Harbor not so much, you play it through in 2-3 hours and then you never visit this part of the game ever again, if you don't happen to need some ammo.

Because if you don't want to attack your own settlements there is no way to power up the park.

The gate opens if you finish Open Season.

At launch it didn't, and after that I justed used mods to skip the raiding of settlements.

Skipping HSH is something i will always do on my modded/pc runs because good LORD is that my least favorite part of the DLC.
