My main gripe, the main quest line is FAR too short. I had no idea the game was going to end when i typed in that code! Let me make this clear, i realize now that most of the game is side quests and exploring, im saying i am disappointed in the main quest line.
I am not a gamer at all, this is actually the first game other than wow i have given a try on the PC, i havent played any other games since super mario.
It just really sucks when i started to get the feeling of getting more powerful (collecting weps/armor/caps) and then i got the carpet pulled out from under me! I had some big plans dude, now i gotta start over. I was lvl 12 and had around 11 hours played into the game, i am sure i would have finished sooner hadn't i found side quests that distracted me from the main one (i didn't even realize what was the main quest until a bit into it, and definitely didnt know the game would "end"!).
Also, i purchased the game of the year addition and i just read somewhere that even after i type the code into the purifier machine, that there was more game to be played. Mine just went right to the credits. Are all of the downloadable content packs side missions, and are they already integrated into the game (downloaded the GOTY edition from steam).
I am not even 100% sure i am going to revisit this game now, which also sucks. I know there is a ton more stuff i could do, but with already knowing the ending it takes a lot of that away from me. I wish a dialogue would have popped up saying "if you do this quest, the game will be over" lol. I just have a lot of games on my radar that look good, and coming back to this game now is going to feel cheapened@!
Man i had such big plans. I was gonna buy all that stuff at tenpenny tower (had almost 5k caps already) that turns your room into a 1 stop shop basically. I was just astounded how fast that was when you just do the main quest, sheesh. Not to mention all the thought i put into the character system and was racking up skills and points and perks and just could not wait until lvl 30 to see how powerful i felt, i dont even know if i will see lvl 30 now.
I know its an old game but many people suggested it for my first real PC game. Bottom line is it is a very cool game but i feel the developers over there dropped the ball BIG TIME on the main quest line.
I am sure some of you are thinking "why didnt you look stuff up on the internet", in a bit of irony portrayed by my premature ending, i dont like surprises.

. But as others have said load up the DLC the load your last save ( it should have saved as soon as you walked into the last room but before you entered the code) and you can then play more. They did a real good job of making the BHOS DLC feel like it was in the original game
