I think hangmans alley can serve a purpose but not as a settlement, the only use I've found for it is a place to capture and eliminate gunners with traps and a handful of bots doing scavenging for some passive resource generation but even then almost any other settlement can do it better 🤷‍♂️

Alright, lemme break it down for those with less braincells like me. Described via a shitty "apartment complex" analogy. Institute - Smart as shit and putting on a school fair project by making people. Brotherhood - Hate their downstairs neighbors for the completely bullshit school project, and want to burn it in holy fire. Also Socialists, because they don't like the idea of classes. Railroad - They're the lower-class and hate their upper-class roommate and want to sabotage their school fair project by kidnapping them, coercing them, and throwing them into the tea-filled harbor. Minutemen - The janitor of this weird-ass apartment complex, working on getting both apartments emptied and repairing the other ones because they all sucks. Now, another apartment needs your help, I'll mark it on the map. Perfect blend of everyone in the wrong way. Atom Cats - That one old guy living in the next-door apartment who listens to sixties records all day. That's the Atom Cats. Raiders, Mutants, Ghouls - Other residents of the complex (or, at least, 99% of them). Most suck ass, deal drugs, and are probably the reason rent's so low. Everyone hates them, everyone wants them gone. Gunners - They think everyone's out to get their cash, and thus trust nobody. Even when beneficial. Islanders - The next-door apartment building. Rent is higher, but it's worth it. Children of Atom - Live in both buildings, with more in the next-door building. Don't complain about their room being shit because they're weird. Acadia - Lives in the highest apartment in the Islanders' building. Don't care about anything else, just want to be left alone.

I've never played any other Fallout (or Skyrim, for that matter) game other than 4 and its DLCs. After watching this I think that's given me a whole different perspective. I came at this DLC from an entirely different point of view. In Fallout 4, no matter which faction you side with, Garvey and the Minutemen are suffocating. They so completely permeate every aspect of the base game that it sometimes feels like you don't really have a choice but to play as Garvey's stupid butt boy. It took me a while to figure out Nuka World, but the beauty of it is that it finally gives you a chance to break out of the vanilla Fallout 4 and not have to cater to the Minutemen quests. In my current playthrough, Garvey and his forlorn crew occupy the Red Rocket in a modest, barely sustainable farm. The rest of the map is my raider empire. Nuka World is the anti-Minuteman version of the game. It's the chance to NOT connect the dots in the normal way. The Castle is owned by the Desciples and Sanctuary is securely the domain of the Operators. As for the other factions, I play them against each other. If you want more vanilla Fallout 4 and more Minutemen, then yeah, it's gonna suck. No, you're not going to reform the raiders. Seriously? In the hierarchy, you're a tool, a figurehead. It's more like a pirate captain than a general. You're in charge while you're useful, just like the last guy. In that mindset, most of the DLC's logic is sound, though maybe a bit overly forgiving. If I have a complaint, it's the DLC didn't go far enough. You can't simply go to war with the Minutemen. That's the missing element... I wasn't a fan of Far Harbor. It's just more Fallout 4 vanilla wrapped in too many rads for me. The story is a bit more interesting but it railroads the player too much for a satisfying RPG. Anyway, just my 2 cents...

Yes

Reasons to be evil: Fallout 3 enclave- We are evil because the world needs to be purged of any mutagen to allow pure humanity to flourish Fallout NV Legion- The world is a hard place. It needs something so brutal to come together to survive. No freedom but safety (well for some) Fallout 4 Institute- You just don’t understand why we are evil and I won’t explain it.

pretty sure minutmen/institute alliance is the canonical and best ending of fo4!

The best ending is the one where Brotherhood and Minutemen remain. It is too satisfying to see the Institute go up in flames and Railroad butchered to pass.

Commenting for the algorithm

I always go minutemen and railroad. Railroad have a solid point (synths are literally just mind-controlled people), and minute men actually care about the commonwealth

I would’ve loved a “restore” function. I loved customizing but I also had playthroughs where I just wanted a house with some lights and furniture but didn’t want to do all the busy work of just being able to do that. Just restoring some pre existing buildings would’ve been fine for me.

19:23 this actually happened irl in Russia. During the 90s crisis people who had the means to farm basically had to do it to live somewhat decently and not spend all of their money on food

Recently found out the you can stick nuka world sentry "legs" on a mr handy torso and still have the mr handy arms

Damm. Rly great essay. I loved it. Got my sub buddy 👋

unga bunga ron pearl man would make a good super mutant...

They should have added to options to the ending of this DLC 1 Attack Nuka-World the same way you did the castle alongside an army of Minutemen and free the traders Or 2 Finally be able to side with the Gunners and take over Nuka-World with them and then start not taking over the commonwealth like the raiders did but getting them to buy Gunner protection from fleeing raiders that ran from Nuka-World which is the option i would choose because the Gunners should have been a yes man option for the game

One of my favorites isn't the best at combat, it certainly holds its own in a fight but it doesn't excell is basically just Geodude from Pokémon. It's just the Mr. Handy body and thruster with sentry arms swinging those hammer saw weapons and I removed the eyes so it looks more like the right shape and will only engage in close range combat. He mostly just tends to the farm but when the settlement is attacked and the enemy is inside the "wall" he kind of destroyed the raiders I was encountering around lvl 30 but that was the last time I saw him fight and im 53 now so he could be trash but I don't care, I like him how he is lol.

Now we need these solutions as a mod collection or a mod entirely

The only explanation I found for this lore is that the nuclear war never really ended, and the environment is a product of constant nuclear warfare, not past. One could argue that because they still using mini nukes and nuclear power sources wich are often blown up or thrown away

I don’t really like the idea of a longer prologue tutorial. Any gains to story would be offset by UGH TUTORIAL feelings. I also don’t like giving the Shaun story even more narrative centrality. I don’t need a mandatory grieving scene thanks. That said, Having Shaun’s trail go cold early is a great idea, especially if clues are scattered across the commonwealth in a way that integrated with other quests and stories. Something where we’re given in-game options to pursue Shaun or let go would be cool as well. I love love love thé Kellogg idea Your “Fixing the factions” continues to be your strongest overall ideas imo and would 100% make FO4 a much stronger game if implemented

Where is the 4th video

The reason the power grid works in Fallout 4 is because the Berillum Accelerator supplies the entire Commonwealth with energy so when the Institute took this they stole the Commonwealth's energy grid which is in exact contrast to what Doctor Fallie Filmore said that they only take what they need when they tap into the energy grid on the surface because they took with this literrally evrthing

That "political correctness" bit was out of nowhere, and I really take issue with it. I really liked the rest of video, but I think the way we talk about the people we disagree with is important, and the political right is famously good with language that snowballs into genocidal rhetoric as they become braver with how they dehumanize others. "Political correctness"/"wokeness"/whatever buzzword is in right now is the right wing's imaginary fight against ghosts they created, and if anything, the co-opting of language by the political right (overuse of the term "grooming", for example) is much more harmful. I fail to see how the social punishment against genuinely harmful language that is used to lie and bring about harm upon vulnerable populations is "censorship". I hope you come to understand how this way of thinking harms others, and how even the meaning of the term "censorship" is being twisted for the sake of genuinely fascist aims.

Shame they added a bunch if dogs instead of bring back old guns or armor

Bing bong

the only faction with missiles and fatmans, use of explosives are the gunners, so its possible THEY had been responsible for the attack on sanctuary

Unpopular opinion but institute is the futur I mean they created a civilisation they have plan and try to improve humanity with technologie so for me minuteman and institute end are the best

How to remove oil from oil based paints: Considering that you already have the appropriate equipment. Simply take the Oil based paint and heat it up very, very slowly. I'f done in appropriate flasks the oil will actually separate from the "paint" which is usually solid mass materials like Iron or Sulphur(sulfur) and other pigments. Then you can strain these materials out using appropriate means/uses.

I was told by someone at work, "I side with the Institute. They seem to be the only faction that understands how to use a broom." I'm starting to see their point.

its the world of refreshment it's such a wonderful place.

Codsworth for Sanctuary Mayor election!!!

That RadKing shout out ❤😂

4:00 Are you an idiot? They were clearly threatening to destroy the power plant.

This is awesome information. Since I don’t care about building, the amount of effort is not worth my time. Moving on to another game.

my fav part about this dlc is that theres more enemy patrols around the commonwealth, makes the open world more dynamic and random

You should consider doing concord settlement mod

Btw you can put ballistic weave on the Chinese stealth armor

The fact you can go from lvl 12 to level 185 in about a hr was more then worth the 5$ I paid for it lol. Seriously fastest way to lvl in a game. I could spend another 2hrs n make lvl 300 probably.

I would just love to see what you could do with the prison in the beyond the borderlands expansion that opens the area to the North of Sanctuary Hills

I liked Gaige until he tried to fuck me

I think that far harbor is a kind of shitty dlc bc no new weapons other than the harpoon gun and radium gun no power armor that damn puzzle that could have been made 10 different times and still would be shitty and doent bring any new factions its like an add on for an institute if you side with dima you can also side with the adom but who does its fun to nuke them i do like most the story but to say the BEST has to be wrong on different reasons (this is my opinion and you have one to)

7:29 you wouldn’t develop scurvy if you have been eating animal organs like liver.

Ron Perlman. Yeah, I would have liked to play a better Minute Men story arc as well. I mean, we start off literally building a better Commonwealth…why can’t we continue that to its conclusion? Where’s that option? 🤷🏼

Conquest mod was perfect for this.

I only hate nordhagen because I can’t get rid of that stupid kid

I agree it’s the weakest non-workshop DLC. Feels like it needed a lot more to it than just like 3 quests, a couple interiors and the robot workbench. I feel like the robot workbench justifies bothering with it though. I love having the ability to make my own provisioners and companions.

23:11 Combat Armor is made out of cast steel? I saw rusts on it.

I hadn’t watched any fallout settlement building videos when I started playing this game nine years ago However I found every settlement I built was just the same to those for noobs😂

Thanks for the explanation of thing and designs

I think instead of memory pods, the minute men should take over a location that is dedicated for training like the national guard training yard, or a new location. Then use the area for training and afterwards the minute men are higher level or have better gear. Edit: another part of the quest could be convincing someone to train them, like FNV’s sheriff in primm

Great settlement. That must have taken ages. I keep forgetting about removing the cores from the power armour. We had a radscorpion attack earlier and Carla now has one of my sets of armour ! Ill leave it with her for now just in case the scorpions come back and Im not around
