Looking for a game with base building like Fallout 4
I've been really wanting a game that has the base building like Fallout 4, but maybe even more extensive. Perhaps not just with burned up looking parts and a lot bigger base size. I did manage to get close to this idea with Fallout 4 with a base limit unlocker, but other than that, I'm still looking.

I don't know any such game, but Starfield will be released in the first half of this year, including base building.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance BUT with a construction mod that's NOT compatible with LOTS of other mods.

You have been warned.

OP you may not be aware that you can access a lot more building parts and accessories with the DLC, and even more with mods, So maybe the game you are looking for is: Fallout 4.

Mods.

Just mods. There are literally thousands of Settlement mods out there, I use hundreds of them.

Some games HAVE base building, such as No Man's Sky and Subnautica, but then again Fortnight had building in it i guess until recently I don't know I don't play battle royale games.

Tower Unite, Garry's Mod, any given city simulator... lots of options in various themes.

Lots of games have building in them, the thing of it is they are empty compared to Fallout 4 because they have no settlers.

Like Valheim and No Man's Sky have some great building features in it, but the bases feel incomplete because you have no settlers wandering around your creation.

Which I think this is the answer you are looking for:

Sim Settlements and Horizon are two overhaul mods that change the experience of the game but still has that same basic base building.

Maybe try Conan Age of Sorcery then... its dark fantasy survival rather than sci-fi RPG, but has pretty good building tools and you can populate your builds with people and creatures that you capture/tame.

You can build almost anything you want, anywhere, clean or dirty and any size with mods.

For example, some modern settlements by szeiger -

Mods used listed on the description page for each

The catch with big is that the AI in the game isn't smart or powerful enough to get all those settlers living realistic lives.

Sim Settlements 1 or 2 are other options.

If you are interested in modding checkout artstation.com for ideas e.g. topics to search on include fallout 4, bownstone, boston, building kit.

For example, I want to see if I can build something like this -

My character looks a lot like the one in the top poster -

If someone could do a mod where the junk you are carrying gets shown in-game that would be a mod I would chip in for.

Check out Medieval Dynasty if you want more expansive base building. Build an entire village populated by settlers that you personally recruit.

Only thing is, if you're looking for a game like Fallout 4, MD has very little combat in it and content is lacking, though the devs are working on it all the time. Also (I would think "obviously" given its name, but...) it's set in a fantasy medieval world rather than a PA wasteland. I think it should still be in beta, or early access at least, but it is playable and engaging. I believe the game uses the same engine KCD uses. The graphics look very similar anyway.

I like the game pretty much, and I never thought I would. I'm not a huge building fan, but I like it when there's a nice, violent game surrounding it. But other than fighting off the random anemic bandit, or grizzly bear, you'll be spending most of your time building your village and keeping your villagers happy.

Depends what you want OP.

If you want to build up your base/town/city and watch your people doing things,. there are a number of games that do that. Both modern settings and old. "The Settlers" being another one to add to pile mentioned so far by the others

But if your looking for a game that "plays like FO4" with a single player character with base building, your probably better off looking at mods for this game than trying to find another one.
There are ALOT of base building mods, so, id experiment with them...

Get Sim Settlements for Fallout 4 , there is nothing comparable on the market.
