Now this DLC was hyped up really high! It was advertising itself to be a game changer and bring in mechanics that this game should've had from the very beginning!

-Play as a raider
-Fresh new location
-New settlement system around raiding

However, much of this was untrue or greatly exaggerated!

It's a interesting enough mission where you fight the leader of these raiders, defeat him and then become their leader.

Afterwards you have missions to explore and conquer every section of the park for one of the three groups. There's much more with interesting ideas, however, that's kinda where it ends making it a similar quality to Far Harbor.

The issue I have is the promises of becoming a raider were greatly over exaggerated. You need to do the main story missions in that DLC before you can lead the raider lifestyle.

The settlement system in this raider setting is where you threaten other settlements for bottle caps. Nothing else really goes on, your raider bases stagnate as raiders refuse to do any work (lazy bastards) and you just shake down these settlements for caps.

Despite claiming you are now a raider, there's no options for slavery which is odd considering that's one major thing raiders do!

To get a much better raider experience, download the mods. They can give you all the authentic and fun raider experience that you won't get here.

Typical of modern Bethesda games, they advertise that you can do anything, but strip away elements that were present in earlier iterations.
