For sure, the best DLC for Fallout 3.
It definitely has more stuff to do than most of the other DLCs despite being really short but the biggest selling point of the DLC for me is the vibes and the environment.
If the gamebryo engine wasn't so dogshit, I feel like this is what a lot of the rural areas in The Capital Wasteland should've looked like. Even in the dlc which is a pretty small landscape, the framerate tanks a lot because of the engine, regardless of what hardware you're playing on. Too much foliage and trees.
But this DLC's environment is much closer to what it could've been and its really cool to see. Instead in the base game we just get a desert devoid of any life to make the game run better and to try and capitalize on the aesthetic of the first two fallout games.
Anyways, this DLC also has a lot more weapons that are actually useful like the lever action and the double barrel. The enemies are very unique too and the fact there's a side quest that connects to a location in The Capital Wasteland is pretty awesome.
This DLC still suffers from the issues that every other Fallout 3 DLC has with shit writing and being way too short but I feel this one is definitely more enjoyable than the rest.
