Fallout 4 may be the best game in the series as far as mechanics are concerned but fans who want to embrace the role-playing elements that made Fallout: New Vegas so popular ought to check out this impressive mod. While factions play a massive part in Fallout 4's story, the Sole Survivor's impact on them feels almost negligible when compared to the dynamic system that governs how NPCs respond to players in the Mojave Wasteland. It's a feature that was sorely missed but thanks to the modding community, it's back in a big way.
Posted to Nexus Mods by creator bp42s, the aptly titled "Reputation" mod adds a system similar to that seen in New Vegas to Fallout 4, providing a better simulation of the Commonwealth's factions and how they might treat the Sole Survivor. The mod is described as "highly reactive and dynamic," resulting in rewards and consequences that hinge upon how players interact with the game's groups. It even implements a new dynamic Pip-Boy tab with custom animated and static icons to make its implementation feel even more organic.
Depending on the decisions players make in Fallout 4, the various factions will shift...
