Fallout 4: 10 Most Important Mods Every Player Needs

Armour mods, better weather effects - even a proper dialogue system!

When the bombs dropped back in November of 2015, it was safe to say that, whilst the critics obviously praised the latest entry in the post-apocalyptic role-playing series as the greatest thing since ice-cold Nuka Colas or cybernetic dog companions, not all the fans felt the same way.

Many considered it to be a step-back in comparison to Obsidian's Fallout New Vegas, which offered crafting, more factions, challenging moral decisions, and much more. Not to mention the plot and blurring of moral decisions as well - the Brotherhood of Steel, for example, are portrayed not as the last bastions of hope, but technology-hoarding xenophobes stuck in an underground bunker, unwilling to help anyone but themselves. Even the dreaded Caesar's Legion insists their dictatorship will ensure protection for the essential trade caravans.

That is not to say the latest game does not have some brilliant inclusions. Crafting, making settlements, combat, V.A.T.S aiming; there were many features that received a vigorous polish. As for the others? Well, it's never too late to apply some mods to enhance the experience, add some twists to it all, or just add a bit of humour to this dark game.
