Things I bet you didn't know about Fallout 4
By Donald J. Trump
WIP
Some random possibly useful if not meme worthy features of Fallout 4 that I can bet you probably missed.

OBVIOUSLY huge spoiler alerts here.

A guide I mostly made for myself for fun, but I think others can enjoy as well.
This guide will always be a work in progress.

Useful - possibly important features
  • If you place a Water Purifier in a water source in your base where you can build, it will automatically provide purified water to your workshop storage!

  • If you hold the PIP-BOY button (tab), you can turn on a light. Makes it a ton easier to see in dark areas.

  • If you bring Codsworth (or any companion) back to Vault 111, he has a reaction to your now dead spouse. Every companion has a different reaction.

  • It is possible to use mods and still have achievements enabled.

  • There are multiple unofficial patches for the game on the Bethesda mod site, which I highly recommend installing.

  • If you want a huge chain of supply lines, build automatrons, and have one automatron per supply line. Keep all of your automatrons at the Mechanist Lair. The Mechanist Lair does not function as a typical settlement, and no settlers will ever move there. In turn, this will not cause your settlement happiness to tank.

  • Need more food at raider bases? You have 3 choices. 1.) = Build an automatron workshop at your raider base, and build an automatron that will farm for you. 2.) =Bribe/force another settlement nearby to give you supplies using the amplifier. 3.) = Force your Raiders to farm regardless of the happiness decrease.

  • Quality of water at settlements does not matter. There is no difference between standard water pump and water purifier. Water purifier simply adds purified water to workshop storage automatically.

  • In the beginning of the game, it is possible to avoid the sanctuary missions altogether until later in the game.

  • Instead of scrapping that thing you just built, just press E on it to select it again or TAB to store it. Scrapping doesn't completely refund you of the building materials.

  • Download weightless junk mod.

  • If a companion is mad at you and attacks you on sight, wait for a minimum of 3 in game days away from that companion. They will eventually return to normal and will not attack you.

  • Every companion has specific likes/dislikes towards your actions, and the amount of influence an action has varies between companions: https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Fallout_4_companions

  • It is possible to be liked by every faction at once. (however briefly)

  • Main story missions never require a hacking or lock-picking skill higher than novice. (lvl 1)

Random Facts/Features
  • First of all, there are a metric ♥♥♥♥ ton of movie/media references in this game.

  • There are over 111,000 spoken lines of dialogue in Fallout 4.

  • Hold E on a dead body (robot, human, radroaches, things that arent too heavy) and you can lift it up and throw it around, ragdoll style!

  • If you hit the interact button when inside the cryo pod at the beginning of the game while Shaun is being stolen, you can slam on the glass.

  • Aliens exist??
