So I'm now really, REALLY enjoying Fallout 4. I have a ridiculous backlog of games, so usually I'm quite focused on playing through the campaign of things and not messing about with much else, but I think I've put about 30 hours in and not been to Diamond City yet. Some games just suck me into situation where I feel like I put a hundred or more hours in for the 'prep' before I even properly start to play. MGSV did it too with Mother Base, and my time in Fallout 4 so far reminds me a lot of No Man's Sky where I was just gathering blueprints and resources, and setting bases up just right in order to fund my adventure.
Sanctuary is a little messy right now as it's sort of been used to get used to all the settlement building stuff, but now I've got a nice little set up that produces plenty of purified water, along with the other bits for crafting jet which both earn very good caps, as well as producing adhesive which you need a ton of for crafting. I've also made another little water purification settlement around the boat house.
