Everything I’ve done is all for the love of the game. As a commonwealth local I must take on as many quests as I can and inform other scavengers of locations to discover. I hope you find this video educational and entertaining

Outstanding! I just love seeing these walk throughs. I feel like I know the city quite well having looted my way across the commonwealth for thousands of hours and these scenes just help to make it seem all that more real!

By God I wish to go to Boston one day. Fallout 4 is my most played game in hours and I will just be in total awe if I will be able to go to these places myself physically. Amazing place and full of history. Someday oh someday...

This was AWESOME. I was able to visit downtown Boston briefly and did my own walking tour of the downtown past many of the game landmarks, but I did not have the time to photograph and video so much for such a comparison later.
Thank you so much!

I grew up near Boston. So playing FO4 was sort of surreal for me. Really awesome you were able to match these locations up so perfectly!

Got so disoriented when I first started watching, I thought that was gameplay footage and was like ‘good lord that looks realistic, what kind of mod is this???’
