On the flip side, the nuka cola world dlc? probably the most stinkiest piece of shit dlc i've played in my whole fucking life and i hope whoever designed it lost their job because holy shit... the moment i was told that i could ignore the whole questline and just murder everyone i went for it, and the best part? its not even morally reprehensible to do so because by doing so you're legit freeing slaves from a bunch of slaver factions...

No offense, but I feel like you could take a cue from your own advice here and not focus too much on the dogshit writing. Nuka World is a microcosm of the game as a whole - weak premise, (mostly) bad writing, but a very fun worldspace to explore. Having had to actively go out of my way to avoid or put off the main plot in both Fallout 3 and 4, I find it perversely liberating to have a Bethesda game finally encourage you to literally wipe out its driving plot element and just explore the worldspace at your own leisure.

Of course your mileage may vary. I went into Nuka World expecting some generic amusement park, and was quite pleasantly surprised to find that they'd gone full-blown Disney World parody; I love going to Disney World, so it was easier to notice and appreciate all the references great and small, from the sci-fi movie drive-in down to the Spanish-language 'please stand clear of the doors' announcement in the monorail. And to be fair they blew most of their creative energy on the Galactic Zone, but the other areas are still plenty fun, and the Kiddy Zone has a pretty decent sub-story by Bethesda standards.
