Like most Bethesda games, the mechanics behind almost all of the game are garbage. I don't know how these guys keep doing it, but they take all that junk, mash it together, and it somehow becomes one of the most addicting games you'll play for the year. They do excel in world design and background storytelling, though.
Seriously: shitty story, dialog, dialog options, characters, quest design, building mechanics, choice/consequence, animations, graphics, performance..... I don't know how I made it through ~100 hours, but I did, and I enjoyed it.
So yes, you should get it.

I disagree with some of this. The game has some pretty cool characters, Deacon is one I enjoy having around.
Quest design is also similar between quests but some of them are really fun. I had a lot of fun doing the great dig quest last night.
As for performance, it runs really well on PC. I can't speak for console.

Load of crap. The fact you played 100 hours means most of what you said is crap.
I think the graphics are fine other than the character animations.
performance hasn't ever been an issue and I've played an insane amount of time getting to level 114 and now I have a level 44 character.
I don't think the story is totally weak, however I agree the choices and the consequences aren't up to snuff. Not nearly enough options.
And in reality, I really didn't like any of the choices.
I think there should be a way to avoid or turn off radiant quests. However, I wouldn't turn them off because I use those to collect loot to build settlements. Especially like the reset for Medford Memorial so I can get bones.
I enjoy the piss out of settlement building. It needed some tweaks, but the mods have made it much better.
People whine about quest design in absolutely every RPG I have ever played. Maybe not Witcher 3 but they were wrong, witcher 3 had just as many go there get this quests. Nothing like recovering a frying pan.
At the end of the day, I will have spent more time on this game than any I have played that wasn't a life sucking evil MMORPG.
Hell, you hated everything about the game and played 100+ hours. They did something right, and the components you listed couldn't have been as bad as you are clamoring.
