It's... okay. I hate to complain about things that already saw plenty of outrage early on, but the game really is hurt by having the NPCs grafted on after release. I didn't play until after their addition, but they still don't play a sufficient role in making the world feel alive because they're so poorly integrated into the fabric of the game. It feels incredibly empty, meaning your focus is drawn to the gameplay - gameplay that isn't good enough to carry the whole experience on its back. It's Fallout 4 with even more jank and even less to do, but it's entirely possible for it to be a more enjoyable experience for someone who enjoys collecting scrap material and building cozy campsites with the settlement mechanic.
