It simply displays exactly how much your companions’ affinity changes through your actions and responses. Dogmetal is the apex version of what Dogmeat can only ever dream of being.Ĭheck out Visible Affinity in action here! It shouldn't be a surprise that robotic K9 jaws have a much stronger bite than a normal dog would. Very handy in irradiated areas with radioactive, especially powerful, and venomus enemies. Take that out of the picture and enemies like the stingwing or the glowing ones lose a good chunk of their attack power against their opponent.

However the replacement still functions and acts like Dogmeat but now it adds to the game in the following ways:Ĭustomizability is extensive and personalizable. The only arguable downside to this mod is the fact that it replaces the living, breathing Dogmeat. Whether it’s a cute, metallic, companion you’re after or a robotic, bloodthirsty, loyal, killing machine, Dogmetal leaves that choice to you. These robo K9’s are customizable, fierce in combat, and upgradeable. The classic survivor-and-their-trusty-dog is in full swing as it is but you can also add another companion to the duo thus making a small squad.ĭogmetal replaces Dogmeat with a robot dog or a pack of three robot dogs if you fancy. This is very helpful in battles with powerful boss enemies.ĭogmeat makes a great companion without having to worry about appeasment. The mod makes the game more enjoyable by:ĭogmeat can assist in combat per usual but then your other companion can then assist you in attacking the enemy. This mod allows an extra, speaking, conversational companion of your choice to accompany you and your trusty K-9 friend.So where Dogmeat slacks in combat and conversation or moral standing, your human friend can assist. Human and synth companions do of course and this makes them the most useful companions. However Dogmeat has no opinions on anything, no conversational skills (duh), no real goal or agenda. Which yes, he absolutely is a companion as all dogs are. That goof would be the fact that Dogmeat counts as an entire companion. Give them a little something extra with these top 10 best Fallout 4 companion mods.Ĭheck out Everyone's Best Friend out here!Įveryone’s Best Friend is a mod that fixes an obvious goof in the vanilla version of Fallout 4.

They happily (most of the time) follow you into whatever God-forsaken, radioactive beast infested building you happen to waltz into and help you fight said beasts and maybe even pick a lock on a door or crack the code to a terminal that you will then go in and reap all the benefits from.

A wonderful, and arguably central part of Fallout 4.
