    Fallout 4’s Automatron DLC let me wreck evil robots, cannibalize their corpses for parts, and use their severed limbs to create my own mechanical monstrosities. It’s a Frankensteinian fantasy that’s just as fun as it sounds, and it more than compensates for the flimsy story and characters that come along with it.
