What evil lurks in the hearts of robots?
Reactions toFallout 4‘s first piece of DLC,Automatron, have been mixed. Jordan wascool on the experience, enjoying some of the new locations, but was disappointed by a fairly short run time and that the DLC only seemed to account for characters specifically specced towards it. Personally, as a big fan of clunky ’50s robots, and with a workbench stocked to the rafters with glue, fiber optics, and steel just waiting to be turned into an army of loyal kill-bots, I loved it.
I have a feeling I would loved it more if I’d been wearing my Silver Shroud costume though.
To go hand in hand with the pulp vibe of the DLC, players who confront the Mechanist wearing the Shroud’s trench coat and scarf are treated to special dialog responses and options. It’s silly, dumb, and exactly the kind of thing I love about the series.Falloutis at it’s best when it can make you laugh at the post-apocalypse.
you’re able to watch the standoff between the two hammy, pretend comic book characters in the video above thanks toFluffyNinjaLlama(spoiler warnings obviously in effect).
