Fallout 4: Fusion City Rising

Author(s): Recluse and Thuggysmurf

Link: Nexus Page

Lore-friendliness: (not really)

Installation level: (easy)

Overall rating: (good mod)

Synopsis:

There is an underground city in the Glowing Sea, called Fusion City. Founded by Ini-Tec, a new faction/pre-war company not represented anywhere in the lore (at least not that I’m aware of) of the Fallout universe. Attached to that city is the Club Fusion, a giant multi-floored night club. Some parts of Club Fusion are NSFW, but only if you use a nude body (CBBE is required, but that has nude and non-nude models).

My impression:

Overall, I give this one a 4 star rating. The only downside, that cost it the fifth star, is, that without CBBE it looks horrendous (although the mod author lists it as recommended, in fact, it is a requirement). But be aware of the other recommended mod, Valkyr Face Textures – I won’t post a link to that one, as it’s faulty and can totally mess up your game. Don’t download it – the people look good enough with other face textures, even vanilla ones.

Why did I give the lore-friendliness only 2 stars? Well, first of all, that Ini-Tec storyline is unbelievable. It’s fun to explore it, to fight through the dungeons (by the way, those are really packed with enemies, so better prepare your graphics card for some heavy load). But it’s a load of… well.

And they included an old – since long disproven – fan theory about Deacon, that he is in fact the Lone Wanderer from Fallout 3. That has been disproven, because it’s impossible to fit that into the timeline of the Fallout universe. Deacon would have to be much older than he is. In fact, it’s so much off lore, that I really was considering giving an overall rating of 3 stars, but as the mod all in all is well done and much fun, I think, 4 stars are ok.

One thought on “Fallout 4: Fusion City Rising”

  1. I won’t review Outcasts and Remnants, the follow-up to FCR, here, as they just shrug off bug reports and it also meddles with vanilla quests (by giving you the option to kill Preston). Even worse is their third installment of that mod series, Project Valkyrie, it changes some parts of the vanilla questline in their favor, which makes both mods, that I can’t recommend at all.
    I don’t know which mod my next review will be, but definitively none that involves Thuggysmurf in any way.
