Piper does grow on me after a while. I like that she's concerned her sister would grow up to be like her lol.

Nick Valentine the synth detective! So glad you picked up my favorite companion. How could you not love Nick Valentine? Best companion story by far.

I haven't actually traveled with him yet. But I'm excited with all these glowing praises lol.

Diamond City is really fun area especially since there aren't many in the way of actual cities in Fallout 4 unfortunately. Check out Goodneighbor if you're ever in the area. That's where the dapper gang is based also.

Yeah, I checked it out. Went on the heist quest as well with Bobbi and Mel (RIP Sonya :( ). My first attempt at breaking Mel free was really bad, the guards saw me and everyone in Diamond City is out for my blood...even Piper. Ouch. Then I reloaded and since the guards didn't see when I picked the lock they just turned a blind eye when Mel waltzed out right in front of their eyes.

I love the twist that we were actually digging under Hancock's saferoom all the while!

I tried ambushing Fahrenheit but man that lady doesn't play nice. Then I tried to actually talk to her and it worked really well lol.

Except for the part where she gave me a unique weapon and I was already encumbered. :( Nothing a dollop of Buffouts can't fix though.

I'm currently traveling with Hancock. A pretty cool thing is that he actually uses the weapon I ask him to equip. Piper seems to always default to her basic pistol when I'm not looking.

Goodneighbour is a pretty cool place. Ghouls and outlaws and robots (KLE0 reminds me of that feminist robot from Siki).

I also retook the Castle.
MAN that was an exciting mission. I swear the Mirelurk Queen looked like a kaiju from far away...but it was actually a fair deal smaller.

And...well, the missile wasn't really effective after the first shot since it takes a bit long to load and the Queen can move quite quick for its size. I just barraged her with my shotgun and handgun while running away and consuming Stimpak like there's no tomorrow lol.

Still, I'm excited that we took the Castle! Reminds me of Suikoden. And it's located, like, opposite of Sanctuary so now we have two major bases in the two corners of the map. Now if only I can get that supply chain perk...

The settlements are doing okay. It gets kinda repetitive if I make recruitment signal towers on all of them so I just turn them on for a few places. And even that I have to scramble a bit to get the necessities needed.
Also wow it's kinda weird they don't tell us what the randomly appearing Brahmins do, I had to Google dive to know.

I did some more tinkering with the guns and man I love it. The handgun is pretty cool cause it can shoot really fast with 20+ bullets and deal decent damage. I also learned that you can actually replace a gun's part if you have it in your inventory (for example, Long Barrel Handgun Mod) instead of making it from scratch.

On the money side, I make a lot of it by selling the ammos I don't typically use. Hurrah for 0 weight. ...well, not enough for getting the 10,000+ caps OP equips, but it's good enough to last me.

I found some armor parts that actually give stat boost (STR, END, and LUK). Wow. Now I just need to pimp them up a bit.

I'm happy that I can take on smaller groups of Super Mutants. But the ones occupying places like that Satellite Array and Water Treatment Plant are still too much for me. Especially if a Legendary Glowing Mutt spawns with them. >_>

And...just what is the Swan? I'm terrified. It has that skull next to its name.
