What is everything far harbor has to offer? Is it really worth as much as £19.99
What does it specifically bring to the already near-perfect game?
I've yet to play, but here's what I've gathered, until someone who has played can give you more:
Actual role-playing, rather than just "go here and kill"
Largest landmass ever, though actual content is lacking.
Other people I've talked to have stated its the best DLC of any game ever, not just Fallout.
It's main storyline seemed pretty intreging while I was going through it, but in hindsight it was really lackluster.
The entire island is currently suffering from a terrible frame rate issue.
The landmass is supposedly the largest DLC area yet, however it is pretty bare and uniform. I will admit though that I still find it interesting to fight through it.
There are around five new types of enemies that I've encountered (not counting variations of the same enemies).
Some interesting new weapons/ armor.
In total I think I've played it for about six hours total over the last four days so I may not be able to fully assess it's overall content at this time.
To be honest I really don't feel like any of these DLCs/ Add-ons have been worth their sticker price; not when compared to the previous DLCs from the predecessor games.
I’m impressed. I’m not a hardcore gamer and can’t comment on how it compares to the downloadable content for other games, however it’s revived my interest in Fallout.
It probably depends on the type of player you are. If you’re someone who wants to achieve and explore everything – or you’ve already completed everything and wish there was more to do – Far Harbor should interest you.
The Island is about a quarter of the size of the Commonwealth and that seems enormous – I was expecting something the size of Spectacle Island. It is sparse, however there are quite a few missions (spoilers below):
You need to do some investigative work before you head to the Island (you will want to use Nick as your companion)
You arrive at the Harbor and assist the Harbormen to fend off an attack
You have the option to assist the Harbormen – three side-quests from the Mariner (retrieving lost items) three from Dalton (killing monsters) one from the Doctor (killing a Mirelurk queen) and one from Pearl (investigating a murder at a Vault-turned-hotel) and presumably others once those are completed
You travel with Old Longfellow (possible companion) to Acadia (synth HQ) – along the way you meet a member of the Children of Atom who invites you to their settlement, the Nucleus
At the Nucleaus you have to undertake a task to join the cult – there are at least two side-quests I’ve discovered so far (hunting a deserter and repairing broken equipment) and presumably others. There seems to be a lot to explore (there’s a heavily-fortified command centre and nuclear submarine)
At Acadia you meet DiMA (Nick’s brother) and there are at least three more side quests (tracking a missing synth, retrieving items for DiMA, and assisting Kasumi) and presumably others
It seems you will then be asked to pick a faction as the Harbormen, Children of Atom and Acadia are in conflict so utilising the save option you can play all three endings
There are some new enemies – trackers, gulpers, anglers, fog crawlers, fog ghouls, hermit crabs. There are some cool aspects – DiMA reveals more about Nick’s background, the Vault-hotel is interesting to explore (though the quest itself is brief). Certain elements may change your perspective on the wider game - the synths of Acadia oppose the Railroad’s methods and makes the Railroad seem well intended but ultimately misguided (this was fine for me because I always thought they were dicks anyway) and the Children of Atom are fleshed out a little more.
It does freeze a lot and that’s annoying.
I'm never sure if you're serious with your 2 questions per day but here's my best answer:

Go there, and then crawl out through the fallout next to me....
And now you're gonna die, wearing that stupid little hat. How does it feel?share
