While the Wasteland of Fallout 4 is, as always, awe-inspiring, large and full of things to do; most people can agree that one thing it lacks is... well that simple natural beauty it had before the War. Side-effect of nuclear fallout don't you know? It also lacks much in the way of the changing of the seasons as time moves on, even though there is a dating system in the game (which decorates Diamond City in festive cheer if the date hits December 25th in-game fyi). That might also be down to the nuclear fallout, but it's a little less clear.
However, it's been over 200 years by this point and obviously there are some modders out there who thought that Boston and the Commonwealth really ought to have recovered a little bit better than this. So a number of mods have been released through Steam Workshop and NexusMods for the game, and one person released a mod that not only brings some green life back to Boston, but allows for the cycling of the seasons as the days pass:
The video seen here demonstrates how the Seasons mod changes the game around you, with an apparently minimal impact on the FPS of your game depending on your machine's specifications. Imagine leaving Diamond City in its festively decorated form on December 25th and stepping out into the winter wasteland outside. A white Christmas never felt so awesome or felt so dangerous.
Of course, the video maker has used other mods in the video to enhance the effect. Those mods are the Subtle ENB mod that plays with the colour balance to make the colours crisper in the daytime and darker at night, the True Storms mod that enhances the weather effects of the storms that blow in from time to time in the Wasteland (rain, thunder, storms and radiation rains) and a character modeller mod called Caliente's Better Bodies Enhancer that gives your some more options to play with upon character creation. All four of the mods seem to work together nicely with no suggested framerate drops in the gameplay section of the video, which is always nice to see.
If you're aching to get a little bit more from Fallout 4, the mods are linked below from their NexusMod pages.
