New Vegas was the best rpg out of them all.
F4 was the best shooter.
I only recently got the dlc to new vegas - played the game multiple times before but without any. If you don't have them, get them. Seriously. The ultimate edition can be bought online for less th an 10$, it includes them all, get it if you don't already have it.
It is possible I posted about it here before, but when it comes to fallout 4, there is a mod.. that changes everything. Well, not literally, but enough to get excited about it. And when it works, it works REALLY WELL. It's called sim Settlements and you can get it here. As an added bonus, it doesn't clash with achievements, most game changing mods do.
Generally town building is very fun, if rather clunky. With 30 settlements available around boston and several more with the DLC, there's quite a bit of building to be done, but.. well,after a while it really gets old. With Sim Settlements, your settlers will build their own homes, fill them up with clutter and will keep upgrading them if they are happy enough and/or employed - there's a hidden system for that.
Here's a couple of photos of my spectacle island settlement, created 100% with this mod - by designating plots for specific businesses/homes/agriculture, and leaving them alone for a while. Most homes are lvl1/2, when they get to lvl3 they get cool upgrades like they're suddenly built under a huge billboard, or get a 2nd story. The stores work, the clutter inside the homes is generated by a script and no, you can't steal all their aluminum and adhesive
Spoiler for spoiler - rather large pics:







Generally it's super fun to visit your settlement to see how much it has developed.. assuming everything works correctly. This mod is constantly updated, fixes are being applied etc. a friend of mine has no issues, for me there were some, for example Far Harbor settlements wouldn't build anything on commercial plots.. don't know why.
Oh and naturally, you can mix this with the old settlement building method if you want.
Anyway, it is really worth a shot.
