    The whole soldiers farming thing goes back before the romans. Most civilizations have required soldiers to produce their own food at permanent installations. With the romans, it was said they used their shovels far more than their swords, both for road- and defensive-construction, as well as farming.

    From the beginning until now (I am level 51), I ignored settlement building, The Minutemen, and, of course, the annoying Preston. I used Red Rocket to dump my loot. When I unlocked The Castle recently, everything changed. I loved renovating The Castle, I love establishing and helping other settlements, and I love Preston. Out of all the factions, the Minutemen stand above all others as truly worthy of defending.

In _My_ game my character, being General of the Minutemen, dresses them in the pre-war military gear, and arms them with Combat Rifles, to honor her dead husband who, if he were alive, and in the position She is, would do the same thing, and train them the way he was trained when he himself was in the army. You know, a bit of Nate's legacy to the Commonwealth. #ArmyWifeShit

    • @nobah8131
      @nobah8131 3 роки тому

      @@shahnazfiaz2015 It plays VERY well with it. Also, don't be afraid of blackouts. The dizzyness is your inner ear, trying to adjust to you moving, while you are actually standing still - same as the "travelling sickness" some people get, while riding a car or a plane. Worst that could happen is, you get sick and have to stop playing for a while. The good thing about this is, that
      1.) you can train yourself to be better at this! Every play session you will build up resistance, until you don't get sick anymore.
      2.) There is a (of course) a Programm for this! Try "Natural Locomotion" on Steam, it uses you natural arm (and feet, if you have the periphery) movements, to move your character in VR. You basically jog in place and swing your arms. This tricks your inner ear into believing "oh okay, I guess we are moving! No more barfing!" Very good 3rd party software.
      Hope I could help you!

Also you have more room to do whatever you need when you're not working within a walled in area..

      I have all women at the drive-in and the gas station. All armed and wearing the little red dress.

    When I made my first settlement at The Castle, I made it my main settlement where I lived and kept everyone important to me, including all companions except for strong, and Nick valentine (sadly Nick died fighting a mirelurk queen), young synth Shaun, and a few other people I liked and persuaded to come to my settlement.
    (Edit was where I fixed my mistake in saying "Mirelurk king" to what really killed him, a mirelurk queen.)

      The floors and most interior pillars are woods to reduce structure stress.

    Excellent video, it certainly inspired me to make some changes to my castle in the game.

    Great video but I love that you took the time to show off how "you" wired your system through that window at 17:16 when that's how it came default in game lmao.
