I was around when Dead Money hit the market, and for that being the first DLC for NV, it was well worth the funds paying for it! Why? Because it was challenging in a different way by bringing in a different genre.

Suppose the same can be true with this DLC, but it's not traditionally what we are used to, rather with the sandbox aspect, many will put numerous hours into this feature. As for the traditional gamer, may no so unless they restrict there character to a lower level.

Again, Im not hating on Automatron in any way. I like it, although it's not the best first DLC Beth has put out, but the community should know that if you are going into this DLC at a high level expecting some GREAT challenge, you cannot go in being near invincible. =)
