It’s going to be on July 2[6]th. I am… mildly anticipating it, I suppose? I mean, I’ve only just started up now with playing with the stuff that was in Contraptions, although now that I actually have an ammunition factory I can see where one would have been massively helpful earlier in the game. But while I find some of the crafting options useful I’m still more fond of the story DLC, which is why I’m looking forward to Nuka World.
Although I may not get everything out of Nuka World. Apparently you may be able to lead your own Raider gangs against settlements, which is frankly absurd to me. They’re MY settlements, you see. Sure, some of them may not have formally transferred oversight over to my character, but that’s a technical formality. You see, I play the kind of character who monologues to her current companion about the growth possibilities of whatever dungeon she’s currently in: Look at this place! It’s got good choke-points for defense, that house over there could right off the bat hold four, six Settlers, easy, and that patch of dirt can probably fit enough Mutfruit if we were careful. These idiot Raiders were wasting this site.
It’s a quirk.
