The Castle - PART ONE - a cozy and realistic fallout 4 settlement build! (no mods)

Today we're starting our build of the Castle, an incredible victory for the Minutemen! I'm going to try to keep these videos to an hour so I can get one out each week, so I hope you don't mind multi-part builds. In this build, we struggle to build a simple farm, cozy up the cold stone walls of the fort with posters and other comforts from home (though I did drop a picture frame through the ground... oops!), and start on some civilian housing to fill in the wall gaps.
As always, thank you for joining me, the general of the Minutemen, as we work together to make the Commonwealth safer, one settlement at a time.🫡

"Maybe a little rug here to warm their little feet :3" is not the kind of fallout 4 content I thought I needed, but this is definitely gonna be my most watched settlement building channel from now on. Exceptional vibes 💙

Just at the beginning of the video here while typing this. An alternative to using pylons in the courtyard for connecting power lines from your generators to the radio tower is using lamp posts instead. On the ground you can see faint walking paths worn in and putting tall light sources beside them would give the Castle a vibe that it was a tourist spot during modern pre-war days.

Amazing build 😄🙌 I just discovered your channel about a 3 weeks ago when I stumbled upon your Starlight Drive-In build. Not only do you do a great job with your builds, but you keep it simple. You inspired me to take a break from Fallout 76 and go back to Fallout 4 and finish the settlements I never finished. Also, the way you present/show your process is very relaxing, almost in an ASMR kind of way. And I know you do not like to use mods, but I feel that you should give "Scrap that Settlement" a try. I think is lore friendly, since it lets you scrap leaves, trash, bushes, debri, etc., but not everything like the other one called "Scrap Everything." I feel settlers would try to keep the settlement clean, so I do not know why is not a part of the vanilla game. Anyways, keep up the amazing job 🙌 Just subscribed!

I recommend you use the nuclear generator, it produces 100 power, so you don't need multiple generators next to eachother

@iCassidyAnn 3 ай бұрын

Of course, but I think she’s going for the more “realistic and cozy” vibe, which seems much more authentic for the time! It might be hard to travel with the generators if that makes sense lol

@Dragonrumpus 3 ай бұрын

Seconding this; although (I assume) most of us are here for the cozy & realistic vibes to these Settlement Builds, I feel like in certain spots the nuclear generator is justified; especially here at The Castle. Personally I usually slap it down right next to the Radio Station & use lights to chain the power over to the wall holes

Loving the cozy "sitting with your friend while they chat about a game they love" vibe! Castle is one of my favorites to work on, especially "legitimately" (ie: without the TGM console command/ paying for resources) because of how sort of ruined it is! Making something that feels appropriately militia but also comfy and communal the way I feel like it should be is always a challenge, but a very fun one to tackle.

I just discovered your channel and have been loving your videos! Building the settlements has been my favorite part of Fallout 4, though I always go extra-hard on security and shelter because I'm a weenie and imagine if I were a settler, I'd be constantly freezing and afraid of an attack, lol. It's so fun to see someone else build, and I'm getting a ton of ideas and joy from watching.

Absolutely love this! Do you make extensive plans for what you’re going to do beforehand, or just pretty much do it on the fly? Either way, your builds are always fantastic. Throughout all of my playthroughs I’ve never been happy with the look of my settlements, so I admit I’m now essentially using your videos as a guide and just tweaking them with things I did like about my previous attempts. It’ll be a cold day in Hell before I give up my little “fishing village” in Sanctuary! 😂

All of the wiring is complete.. You just have to build generator on the little overhang above the workbench. Then connect wire to the pylon directly to the right, then run another wire from the generator to the radio shack.. The whole place is now up and running

This is a pleasant surprise on a Saturday morning! Gotta tell you though, whenever you plunk stuff down without squaring it off (e.g. rugs) it drives me nuts. I’m going to have to insist that you rearrange the shelves, plants, and lamp behind you in your home so that none of it is squared.

Are you familiar with the "Place Anywhere" Mod? The only thing that this mod changes is that it replaces those red boarders with green so that you could place objects well, anywhere. It would've saved you some time on the mess hall while trying to align the counters and it is great when you need to build in tight spaces.
