Too little too late for Fallout 4 to start interjecting something approaching "moral choices" within its formula, but Nuka World still tries to do that, anyway.

Needless to say, Nuka World is a half-baked attempt to shake up a lot of the standard Fallout 4 formulas we were running with throughout the base game and the previously released expansions. This half-baked feeling runs throughout the entirety of Nuka World, providing a very bland, empty-feeling experience that drags even more than the base game and Far Harbor, combined. An increasingly ridiculous narrative, samey mission structures, and the over-reliance on faction work/settlement construction truly did not make me want to finish it.

If you really loved the base construction mechanics of Fallout 4, and you want to feel like a little scamp while you go and do """evil""" things in Fallout 4's stale-ass world, you might enjoy Nuka World. Otherwise, I wouldn't even bother.
