Critic Reviews for Fallout 4: Far Harbor
Fallout 4's Far Harbor DLC offers 15 hours of content that improves on the core game's storytelling, but introduces a new puzzle mechanic that may scare away the purists.
Fallout 4: Far Harbor adds a large amount of great quests and content within its gloomy but distinctive island setting. Thanks to some well-written, morally ambiguous characters, its choices are as gray as the weather, and much more interesting. Though the new companion isn’t the strongest and the supposedly ruinous radioactive fog is more annoying than threatening, all of the adventuring and new gear absolutely made it worth my while to return to Fallout 4 for Far Harbor.
A great setting, a good story, and more dialogue-based solutions than the base game provides.
Far Harbor takes Fallout 4 to the blustering coast of Maine with mixed results.
While saying that Far Harbor is Fallout 4‘s best piece of add-on content to date isn’t the highest piece of praise in the world, it’s an absolute must-download for anyone who enjoyed the sprawling post-apocalyptic role-playing game.
If you made the trip to Far Harbor at all then you know what you're hoping for, and it's safe to say you'll find it. Just don't expect a radical departure from what has come before.
Changing aesthetic from 'Dry Urban Dilapidation Chic' to 'Irradiated Sea Fog Realness' is refreshing.
The best and worst of Fallout in one giant-sized new expansion, with better storytelling than the main game but even worse graphics.
