9 Reasons Why Automatron Will Make You Love Fallout 4 All Over Again

Unlike the upcoming Far Harbour expansion, Automatron takes place within the familiar ruins of downtown Boston, which initially seemed like a missed opportunity to add new areas into the game. It's not a complete swing-and-a-miss though, as the DLC actually opens up the map of the original game quite a bit, taking you to areas you might not have otherwise travelled to.

While much of the expansion has you going into newly created dungeons, there's a few points where you have to gather a certain amount of resources (for the robot building feature) before you can progress in the main story. Although initially an annoying roadblock, these missions give you a chance to look at areas you might have visited before in a new light, as previously unassuming buildings become gold-mines for vital loot that you would have happily overlooked before this DLC hit.

I thought I had seen most of the notable locations Fallout 4 had to offer, yet Automatron takes you to places that are right next door to undiscovered areas you might have otherwise missed.
