I'm over 300 hours into Fallout 4 and I haven't even explored half the map yet because I decided to completely abandon the main/side quests and explore the Commonwealth in a giant snake pattern from Sanctuary to the edge of the map and back. Exploring is my favorite thing to do, followed closely by settlement building. Eventually, building & exploring got a bit repetitive, so I built a dedicated two-story workshop building in Sanctuary. The first floor has every crafting bench, and the second floor is a private studio apartment for me and MacCready. I decided to do something completely unhinged: manually shelf and align almost my entire hoard of chems and alcohol using default drop mechanics. I put the liquor shelves right above the beds, and turned the corner bookcases into a full-on chem stash. No OCD mods, no static decoration mods, just pure painful manual placement item by item. Took me HOURS because of how janky the hitboxes are, but sitting back with MacCready and seeing the stash lined up like a literal pharmacy makes it weirdly worth it. Anyway, here are the results. I'm particularly pleased with my completely excessive supply of Buffout and assorted drugs. My Sole Survivor, Josephine, is basically running a pharmacy at this point.
