In many of the Fallout games - including Fallout 4 - you’re put in the role of a vault dweller who escapes their bunker and ventures out into the big, wide post-apocalyptic wasteland.Īt the outset of “Vault-Tec Workshop,” you’re investigating a distress signal sent out by Vault 88, located in the far south of the Commonwealth, Fallout 4’s version of Boston and its surrounding area. Mostly, though, vaults were isolated laboratories, perfect environments for scientists to mess with people and see what happens. Some were home to machines that let residents live in virtual reality utopias, while others were meant to test the prolonged effects of cryogenic stasis. And each is distinct from the next, thanks to Vault-Tec, the company that, in the fiction, built the vaults and used the apocalypse as an excuse to conduct vast, often bizarre psychological experiments on their dwellers. While on the surface the world has gone to hell following years of nuclear war, these underground bunkers remain isolated little pockets of humanity. Vaults are an integral part of Fallout lore. In the game’s latest add-on, called “Vault-Tec Workshop,” the entire experience is centered on this mechanic, but with one fascinating twist: you can finally build the twisted Fallout vault of your dreams.
With the crafting system, you could build homes, shops, and entertainment, providing residents of the Commonwealth a safe place they could call home.
Since its launch last year, one of the biggest additions to Fallout 4 has been the ability to construct small towns, little beacons of hope amongst the post-apocalyptic desolation. I didn’t realize how fun settlement building in Fallout 4 could be until I started working on an underground bunker filled with elaborate psychological experiments.
