In this article, we shall go over the five best Fallout 4 mods that you should check out and install right now.
Bethesda’s games have earned plenty of goodwill and a positive reputation over their longevity. A big part of this longevity is tied to the developer’s unending support for its modding community, who have consistently breathed new life into their games, and the same is true for Fallout 4. As Fallout 4 comes close to a decade since its release, the game has seen a variety of mods over the years.
These mods include bizarre character models, graphical tweaks, performance fixes, and many more. If you’re a new player looking to enhance your first playthrough with a mod or a returning player looking to freshen up your experience, our list should help you. In this article, we shall go over the five best Fallout 4 mods that you should check out right now.
1) Place Everywhere Mod
Something that immediately stands out within the first few hours of Fallout 4 is its brand-new settlements. The game lets your creativity flourish by letting you create large settlements with your signature touch. However, as much as it lets player creativity flourish, it also restricts and annoys you by flashing red.
You can’t place your settlements everywhere or at any angle. It feels restrictive after a while. The Place Everywhere Mod by TheLich on NexusMods fixes this issue, allowing you to build your settlements everywhere without restrictions.
2) Improved Map with Visible Roads Mod
The Fallout 4 world is incredibly vast, one that you can lose yourself in for hours. No I mean, like, literally. This massive map has no roads, meaning you can literally get lost and get Vietnam flashbacks to those times you had to navigate around mountains in Skyrim. The Improved Map with Visible Roads mod by mm137 on NexusMods fixes the game’s map, adding roads to it that let you navigate better. We highly recommend this mod for first-time players as it makes the map more intuitive, and the experience smoother.
3) Full Dialogue Interface Mod
One of the biggest criticisms lodged at Fallout 4 was that its RPG dialogue mechanics seemed half-baked. You have perhaps already seen the countless memes surrounding the game’s dialogues. You’d be presented with dialogue options and select a seemingly friendly dialogue choice, only for it to be ridiculously hostile.
The Full Dialogue Interface mod by Cirosan and Shadwar on NexusMods fixes this issue by showing you the entire dialogue at once, e.g. how it used to be in previous Bethesda games. This mod greatly improves upon the game’s role-playing elements, and we recommend it for a first playthrough.
4) Project Valkyrie Mod
You’ve sunk hundreds of hours in Fallout 4 and its DLCs already, navigating and conquering the wasteland with all there is to see and know. Now, what do you do? Well, you install the Project Valkyrie Mod. This mod by Thuggysmurf Sybsidian and Formado721 on NexusMods adds a whole new adventure to the game.
There are several new quests to undertake, all fully voiced with new companions. This breathes a whole new life into the game and can help you sink in another 10 or so hours easily. We highly recommend this one for players replaying the game.
5) Fallout: London
The most ambitious mod ever made for Fallout 4, Fallout: London is a mod disguised as a whole new game. This mod takes you to a post-apocalyptic London 160 years after the bombs dropped. This mod brings in a whole new map of London, over 200 fully voiced quests to decide its fate, new factions, and so much more.
Created by Team FOLON, Fallout: London can take you well over 20 hours to complete and is a must-have for any Fallout fan. Installing this mod affects your Fallout 4 save files, so we recommend running through the base game once before you decide to step into a post-apocalyptic London in the mod.
