@Heisenberg You know, the first time I played Honest Hearts, I could've say it was the worst, maybe a tie with OWB. I didn't like the tribal theme at all, I found Zion to be so tedious to navigate, and most of all, I didn't find a reason to care about what was going on there, because the rewards are trash. But every time I play it, I actually enjoy it a little more and now I actually like it.

What is it about Mothership Zeta that you dislike so much? Because I mostly just found it underwhelming.

@gavin gold Where to start, really? Mothership Zeta is just such a piss poor attempt at DLC that it's a struggle for me to even play through it more than once or twice.

The element I despise most about it is how it sort of screws with the lore in monumentally absurd ways. If I remember correctly, MZ effectively implies that the Great War was started by aliens. Aliens! Haha. No, I'm serious.

It just ruins all suspension of disbelief. It's full of awkward cliches and alien references and it feels like it should've been cut from being DLC in the first place. There's characters you can revive from the cryopods, who seem like they could've been written only slightly better to be actually interesting characters. But no. They're just boring shells of characters that will likely end up becoming goo anyway, either by the aliens or by me having enough of their shit.

It also sort of ruins the Lone Wanderer's story. They don't end up walking off into the sunset or helping the Brotherhood of Steel grow. Instead they just sit in their new comfy UFO with a bunch of nobodies for the rest of their life. No cool epilogue like the Courier, no becoming king of raiders like the Sole Survivor, they just literally end watching Earth from afar.

Every area of the DLC is the same. Just monotonous copy/pasted hallways of absolute agony. There's no interesting map design, no fascinating lore. It's just one of those DLCs you do for the sake of doing it. It's filler.

Old World Blues is the best Fallout DLC. Fallout is not 100% serious. It has a few humorous, wacky slant to it despite the grim wasteland it's set in. You should always play with the Wild Wasteland trait enabled. Old World Blues is better than the entirety of Fallout 4.

@DrCube First of all, other than the fact that Wild Wasteland makes the YCS/186 (which is arguably the most powerful weapon in the game, certainly the best rifle) unavailable, having like a couple dozen sci-fi and pop culture references, most of which I don't even recognize and need to look up on the wiki, doesn't make the game any better.

"Oh look! Dogs playing poker! A skeleton inside a fridge! Grenades with white crosses on them! An obscure reference to an 80's sci-fi film that no one ever watches anymore! This is HILARIOUS. Best. Game. Ever." - is something nobody has ever said (and if someone actually did, that person is a moron).

Let's say you disagree and that's actually funny to you. Fair enough. The game isn't a comedy or even a tragicomedy. It has jokes, of course, a little more of them if you pick Wild Wasteland, but these are sparse and designed to break tension in an otherwise very grim setting.

FNV is a story of war, poverty, slavery, torture, child abuse, and the dehumanization of entire groups of people. And in the middle of that, there are still moments when the funnier side of life still manages to shine.

Fallout 4, in terms of gameplay is the best of the franchise. In terms of story it's OK; I've seen similar premises before, and there are some glaring plot holes, but overall it works. OWB is pure, never ending ridiculousness thrown in your face. There's no real story, nothing going on there, nothing to care about, and even if there was there's not even a moment to pause and appreciate it. The scientists aren't characters, they're jokes. it's just one massive, over the top, unfunny joke, like an Adam Sandler movie. There's no comparing FO4 to OWB. OWB is trash.

excluding F4 workshop DLC as I imagine anyone who plays F4 think that those are not DLC but more like patch or mod or something, I think that F4 automatron DLC is worst DLC ever, it is boring and long for reason that it knows not. F3 had a operation anchorage that did not have satisfying ending for me but at same time it is better then a Automatron

Worst Fallout DLC is Fallout 4 and after.
Change my mind (You can't coz truth can't be changed ; ) ).

Point Lookout, it was wasted, introduce a new faction the gunruners, swamp folk, lovecraft quest and the location feels empty, boring, even the main quest is just two npc trying to see who is more capable of kill the other, thats why always i kill both at the end.

I think using any of the settlement DLC's might be a bit of a cop out so I'm going to say Nuka World. I didn't like Fallout 4's DLCs that much and Nuka World was quite forgettable to me. I know a lot of people wanted to be a bad person in some of their playthroughs, which this DLC provided, but it just felt flat to me.

Some previous DLCs like Honest Hearts or Mothership Zeta might be worse gameplay wise but to me they were more memorable.

Wasteland Workshop hands down. The rest from Fallout 3 are quite memorable even for those with pointless plots or gameplay wise.

In my opinion, in the years the fallout series released good dlc and bad ones. Being a fan of the serie, i remember enjoying every one of them more on less ( i steel remember years ago when without internet connection i buyed fallout 3 dlc in the boxed version XD)
But if i must choose the worst fallout dlc ever, for me is Nuka World. Especially because it comes out after far harbor, a dlc that give me old school fallout vibes ( with skill check and morally grey decision!)
Every time i played nuka world, i see a wasted opportunity: give the player only one choice, being bad, with a good alternative feeling more like burning away all the content of the dlc, leaving a empty space with some side quest and place to explore. In this case using mod for fixing nuka world is almost mandatory. But still, a wasted opportunity.

I love fallout series but i didnt like one dlc. Dead Money. i dont like it because its little map and this collar ......ugh.....

Damn, you dislike the best dlc

for me, it's these goddamn workshop addons for 4

Can I just ask, how the hell are people saying that MZ is short? i find it takes me two or three fucking days because i hate navigating the interior of the fucking spaceships. Now, while I do like stuff like the weapons, armors, and consumables, i cannot stand the interior of those ships, the best parts of that DLC, in my opinion, are the death laser (that does shit all I know but looks cool), the spacewalk, and the ending of it, just being able to go home.

The FO4 workshop add-ons. It just adds stuff that I will eventually forget. Bethesda could have added the workshop stuff for free to be honest.

Other than the FO4 workshop dlcs and FO3 Mothership Zelta for obvious reasons, personally I'm also not a fan of FNV Old World Blues. There is something about OWB that make me feel unbreathable, gotta be the dome.

For me, I'd say each of the games has one "worst".

Although I didn't dislike any of the FO3 DLC, I found Operation Anchorage to be really weak for what it could have been.
Honest Hearts was disappointing for New Vegas, even though Joshua Graham was pretty awesome.

I'd say the one with the most disappointing DLC is Fallout 4 though. With a lot of mods it becomes infinitely more playable, but the DLCs are pretty much all missed opportunities, whether the workshop packs or actual DLCs. The actual story DLCs disappointed in both storytelling and interesting locations (the same could be said of the main game, but that's another topic entirely).

Take Nuka World, I know it would be a bit of a retread of New Vegas, but entering the dam would have been fun. They also could have come up with all manner of new weirdness to uncover but most were instead just gimmick locations and another Enclave conspiracy. Kiddie Kingdom and the Animal Safari or whatever it was called were fun, but the rest of the locations in it were just dull to me. Plus the lack of settlements and lack of good choices beyond "Kill all raiders, that's all).

Though the return of the Hubologists was okay I suppose.

I absolutely hate Operation Anchorage, it was such a slog to get through.

Hated Old World Blues and Dead Money when I was younger but grew to love them over time.

Fallout 4's Automatron Dlc was cool but the quests were repetitive. Ending was cool, especially when wearing a certain costume when talking to the boss and getting the dialogue options.

Honestly was not a big fan of Automatron from Fallout 4.

The characters in the quest are all really annoying to me, and the storyline is super predictable. I understand that Bethesda wanted to make their first DLC just a "taste" of what was to come but honestly as a first impression it sucked. There were no new areas in the game, and if they are new they're just revamped with robot enemies or new raiders. The robot building is... okay... it's more shallow than anything, and super buggy. On my most recent playthrough I had to go through the final dungeon with ADA crawling because her legs were broken and my repair kits weren't working. The DLC basically boils down to; go here, kill robot, loot robot, install robot part, rinse and repeat. At least Far Harbor and Nuka World had SOMETHING genuinely new to bring to the table. Albeit shallow or repetitive.
