Season Pass Worth It?

[GrungeBro]

Yeah i am wondering if the season pass is worth the money

[BGratz]

Never considered to buy it, so probably not

Fallout 4 GOTY is on sale (at least here), is cheaper than the season pass and contains all dlc. You want all dlc because most good mods and overhauls require all dlc.

[Zekiran]

Yeah you'll want to choose either the Season Pass version or GOTY based on which one is cheaper. They are the same in the long run, goty is the packaged deal, while Season Pass came out while the DLC was still being released. But they both cover the exact same stuff.

You will want the dlc for modding purposes, as well as the fun additional content.

so since no more DLC's are in the works just getting the GOTY is a better option?

[Zekiran]

Yeah if it's the better price. I think it's on sale right now? Winter is a great time for that.

But yeah it's the same set of products but bundled differently at different times during the 8 years of Fallout 4's life... GOTY is the best easiest way to go!

Also remember - this game has trouble with rendering weapon debris on RTX 2, 3, 4xxx and beyond and nvidia 16xx model video cards. If you have one of those (and you probably do) you need to turn weapon debris off in the settings before trying to start a new game. It will cause an almost immediate crash, so removing it is wise anyway. You won't miss the feature, my card CAN run it and I don't bother.

If the deal is right, get whichever is cheaper, but the Season Pass was originally a deal intended to provide you with the DLCs automatically as they came out. It still works if you've already got the base game, but the GOTY edition is actually designed to give you everything together in the first place.

I don't actually know how season pass works, it's a time-limited access for lower price i guess, since the word 'season' is there.

If that is so, i suggest you to buy goty, because you might play this longer than you initially plan.

The season pass is the same as goty at this point.

When Fo4 was new, I bought it, and the season pass. The seasons = the dlc. As they were finished and released, the season pass guaranteed me access to them.

It's mainly for folks who already have the base game.

No. Season pass does not mean for a limited time. It means you get access to everything in a "season", which for most games means permanent access to all the DLC that ever came out. Some games do limit access to all the DLC from a specific time period, but its still permanent access to the DLCs covered.

Subscriptions are time limited. Season passes are not.

Currently both are on sale, but the game of the year edition is cheaper where I am so I'd get that if it's the case for you.
