Greeting my fellow vault dwellers!
So I said I’d post an update & here it is :). I’m 35 hours in now, absolutely flying!
I had dogmeat traveling with me for that bulk of those hours, but then I stumbled across this NPC called birdie maybe… 6-7 hours ago & made him my companion. He’s been a breath of fresh air, he’s funny & just adds some extra commentary as you venture round. If you find him give him a go.
Made it to diamond city, I’ve popped into the glowing sea & conquered multiple marque dungeons (corvega for example). The plan for the next 5 hours or so is to progress America rising 2 & smash out some of the modding for charity quests.
Absolutely loving Deadlights! The contrast between the sunny days and the… not sunny days is so stark & vibrant! I find a big issue I’ve had over the years with both lighting & weather mods is the dark, a lot of mods make it so you just can’t see anything whatsoever. I realise some people may want this, it’s just not my cup of tea. I’ve found Deadlights exteriors and interiors reach a good middle ground between dark but visible.
The survivalist bus has been fantastic! Especially after realising I can build bus stops within my settlements! I’ve now set up shop ontop of Graygarden overpass & have built a lovely little home for myself (with very scenic views of course).
In terms of weapons, they’ve all been really solid actually, the highlight of this playthrough so far for me has been the CWE 10mm SMG. The thing is nostalgic, good looking & most importantly - effective!
Now some bad news. I CRASHED!! Much sad I know. Happened in the fort hagen town, it’s only happened once but it has indeed happened. Much sad.
Outside of my testing runs, I’ve not spent loads of time in downtown Boston so there may be some crashes reported in the next post if I end up spending more time there. From my testing though I’m confident it’s stable enough… Unfortunately you’ll have to wait for another update hahahaha
As always LO is in the comments with some notes below 👍
Good modding vault dwellers! War never changes.
