- A year ago I went to Boston Massachusetts for the sole purpose of seeing the locations in real life that appear in the game Fallout 4. In this video I will be showing you these locations as well as telling you a little bit about them, so I hope you enjoy.

As a Bostonian, painting the wall warmed my heart in ways I can't explain.
I painted it yellow.
@@LouCooper that's ok. It's about what it protects. It was built to protect the people and business behind the wall(you know, literally because of Babe Ruth), but the idea that it would still be standing 300 years later protecting people inside, well, that's poetry. And, being a 4th generation Red Sox fan and witnessing the end of the curse, it's just something you won't understand unless you're from Boston.
As someone who grew up just north of Boston, can we talk about how many dead settlers they would be after 1 New England winter if they tried to survive in "settlements" you build?
Be honest, which colour did you choose? 😂
@@Lia-A-Eastwood well, my first playthru was blue because I had no idea I could use the mixer to make the green 😂, but always green after that.
Great video. The minuteman statue outside of sanctuary and the bridge next to it exist in real life as well.
Yeah, I wish I would have gotten the chance to go to it but it's a bit out of the way from downtown Boston
@IAREDARK, you could have just fast traveled.
@@tcrviper you can't fast travel to places you haven't discovered. But if he's on PC...
The E.A. Poe connection to that "Fort Independene" incident was new to me! Very cool! I just love it when history puzzle pieces fall into place and make a connection. That's why Fallout 4 is my favourite game because they put so much detail into everything. Thanks for your journey and for cennecting the dots.
Yes, for me, too. But I was confused by the Amontillado wine bottles, everytime when I did the quest. And I always thought, why is the wine called after a novel from Edgar Allan Poe?
Just got back from a trip to New England, where I kept finding myself in Fallout 4 locations. The Minute Man statue by the North Bridge in Concord, the Witch Museum in Salem, Jamaica Plain (where I kept telling my friends, "Man, I wish I had my jetpack!". Weird to experience those places first in the game then in real life.
I grew up in lexington/Bedford/Concord, it was surreal to have a game set in a very niche part of Massachusetts. My eagle project in boy scouts was restoring the rail switch for the old railway. Wouldve liked to have seen the church from bedford center make a cameo or the stop and shop plaza.
This video was short and made well! You didn’t try to milk everything to get the video past ten minutes, and it was composed very neatly. I hope you get more views!
Hey I get what you’re tryna say but “the target length” for videos to be in order to be most favorably picked by the algorithm now happens to be 8 minutes 😅 agree with the video being well made though
However, I thought this YTer would walk around the real spots and film the scenes of the current time to make the comparison. Instead, he just use the pictures collected from internet to show you.
Fallout 4 is soooo good.
Now you need to have a drink at the Prospector Saloon in Goodspring like i did when did route 66...
I had gone to visit my ex who lived in Washington DC, first off it was 2 months after 9/11 so that was surreal with diversions and can't land here sorry take the tram from Baltimore. But when I played the Fallout 3 game years later I was recognizing practically everything from the 2 weeks there. They really nailed the subways, and I'm about 99% positive that my ex's apartment was actually still in reasonable condition in the game :D
Just came across this channel. Always great to see more Fallout 4 youtubers!
Second Battle of Bunker HIll applies only if it happens in the same war when the first happened. But it did not. Other than that, great video, great stuff.
Ah, interesting, thanks for pointing that out
I drove my husband nuts when we were in Boston a couple of years ago, because I kept checking for Super Mutants, and was disappointed that Hancock wasn't out on the balcony. (I did similar things to him in DC.)
This was an absolute gem of a video, keep doing what you're doing, sole survivor!
I am going to visit Boston in a couple days on my way back from my trip to Bar Harbor, Maine
okay this video freaking slaps, could literally watch hours of this
The officer that went down that slide must of been a tank build. 1 INT, 1 PER, 1 AGI. 15 STR. Went down like a rock lol
While at Castle Island, you could have gone to Sullivan's. It's also in the game though the look of it is based on what it looked like years ago. Good food there though....
I saw that but didn't get anything, I should have though
I'll group this with Noah Caldwell-Gervais' video walkthtough of Fallout 4 locations. Not bad company to keep.
Boston Sand and Gravel is real too. Wattz Electronics is based on You Do It Electronics Center.
I used to live in Boston ! The game really nails it !
You don't have to watch the Constitution fly off. You can ride in her as long as you are below decks. Then you just have to go on deck to get your lieutenant hat, and if I remember correctly, there's an elevator to get off the roof.
Did your frames drop when you went downtown?
Yes, actually
I would 100% watch an IARESMART history/world travel channel similar to this video.
I remember doing something similar in the past but it was for Assassins Creed Syndicate which took place in London when it first came out I played for a long time and then I went on a family to Europe and the first place we stayed at was London so I recognized my surroundings especially when we took a boat ride around the river and event on a Jack the Ripper tour which was cool so when we got home after staying at a few other places in Europe I got the Jack the Ripper dlc for the game
You should look into the Fallout London mod then
I loved playing this game as a Bostonian. However Somerville being south of Boston made my teeth itch. GFY Bethesda...
Oh, interesting, where is it in real life?
@@IAREDARK It would kind of be around Watts Consumer and Tucker Bridge. It's kind of squeezed between Cambridge and Charlestown in real life. Fun town btw.
5:07 I’ve eaten at the restaurant next to that chipotle
as a masshole this made me feel good
Amazing video!
Honestly eould kove to see more of this it was short and sweet
While a fortification has stood there since before the revolutionary war, the original fort was built 1634. It fell into disrepair and was rebuilt in 1644. It burnt down in 1673 and rebuilt in 1674. It was destroyed and rebuilt in 1800 to 1803, then destroyed in 1833 but construction on the new fort wouldnt fully finish until 1861. So no, Fort Independence only dates back to 1833-1861.
Ah, thanks for the clarification
@5:13 LOL CHIPOTLE
Thank you!
You're welcome I think
the city in the stadium is too small for this scale, sometimes bhetezda I really can't cope
Yeah a lot of things had to be scaled down for the sake of performance, but you can still see the resemblance pretty well
What do you expect from a decade old game?
Last time they got scale correct was morrowind, this is not a joke, look at morrowind towns, compare them to SKYRIMS CITIES
Mirelurks arent lobsters their horseshoe crabs
you forgot the broken Sanctuary bridge. i believe it's called the Old North Bridge in Concord
I didn't get a chance to go there
When you were at Park Street, did you look across the street and down the alley to see the Orpheum Theatre? That building is The Combat Zone in game.
I didn't even think to look for that
I don't think the railroad is the worst faction because they're all equally terrible, but liked the video anyway
3:39 brick by brick..
👍 Großartig, danke 😊
Excuse me, I noticed throughout the video that your weapon animations are awesome. Can I please get the name and author of the mod that added those? Thank you.
Yeah, I have the bf1 hunting rifle animations and the 10mm pistol reanimation pack. Both are on Nexus mods
great ideia and great vid
3:20 the mission you find him in the 3:54 misson
Do one for Fallout London!! :D
I'd love to, but I've never been there, however the TH-camr Jabo made a Fallout London video and he visited some real locations in London in that video
Hey what’s up IARESMART
Railroad is the worst faction?
Nah.
That position is reserved for the Minute Men.
I have refused to accept leadership because once you do, you get hammered with one side quest after another that "must be done now or..."
Why can't Preston be leader?
Because its a hassle and he doesn't want the responsibility.
No thanks. I've got a game to enjoy. I don't need to be in the middle of one quest and have Preston insist his thing is more important. ;)
Next playthrough I'll do everything up to getting the power armor then I'm leaving their asses alone. That way I won't even have to deal with crazy persistent lady Mama Murphy. ;)
Thanks for the video btw. I need to take a trip to Boston sometime. I'd love to see the witch museum. I had no idea it was a cool as you've presented in this. ;)
I just run past them in the room, grab the bobblehead, up to the roof, grab the armour and never go back
I'll see your Mama Murphy and raise you one Marcy Long.
@@CharlesSmith-io9fp But she's just being sarcastic. ;)
@@Stuff_And_Things So was I. You can't meet one without meeting the other. They're both pains.
@@Ethrianor This is the way.
My ancestor lived across from Paul revere
5:10 laughed my ass off
you couldve said one of the worst, and it mighve been true, but to say that the railroad is worse than the institutes ending and the minutemens ending, thats a hot take
I painted the wall blue and people are flipping out.
*best (iykyk)
I just tried to explain fallout 4 to my dad. He is 65 years old and not intrested at all 🤣🤣🤷♂️
Railroad...Second BEST faction in the game. ;)
If you think that synths are sentient
@@lazy_guy_2525 Well, the story in the game makes it pretty clear. Great game.
@@STEVESCOTTarts fun fact. Machines aren't sentient. Also the railroad only tries to save gen 3 synths and don't care about the gen 1 ones. They are hypocrites. And no i am not with the brotherhood. Long live the enclave
Bro loves having sexual relations with toasters
Go to Bar Harbor!
Another location I'd love to visit
but you didn't visit Lexington and Concord and the old North Bridge!!!!
A shame, but it was pretty out of the way
GreatguyTV great
How about Far Harbor next?
I'd love to go there
brill
Can you do New Vegas? 🙏🏾❤
If I ever go to Vegas I will
Ranger Jake and KrayzyRabb1t has made one for FONV.
Also, the real life Prospecter saloon, the Pioneer Saloon is throwing a Fallout New Vegas fan event next month November 16-17th
Was a blast last year.
@@thethrasher562 I went to Goodsprings a couple of years back and visited the Saloon, General Store and the Graveyeard. The General Store even had Fallout chatchikis. It was going well until a swarm of Cazadores attacked.
Yeup. Somehow, despite the post-apocalyptic setting, these locations are somehow more boring in the game than in real life.
I find it funny that the walls of Fort Independence collapsed in the 200+ years but your house in Sanctuary is still there. Yeah its worn out a bit but a house like that would not be standing after 200 years of neglect. Plus electrical polls, transmission towers, skyscrapers, roads, bridges are all still standing. In reality they wouldn't last even 50 years. They would have rusted, rotted, collapsed or have been overgrown with plants. All you would see after 200 years is forest and some broken concrete. Fallout 4 looks like 20 years after the great war not 200. Plus the radioactive fallout would be long gone. It also wouldn't create mutant monsters, it would just kill everything. All that aside I love Fallout 4.
You didn’t catch in the game why the walls of the Fort collapsed? It didn’t happen on its own.
I'm doing a Subversion mod playthrough. So no comment
Don't pick on the poor RR
The Railroad may be too tightly focused, but come o, the BoS are technofascists and the Institute are complete and utter assholes.
The railroad are just some people living in a dumbster trying to liberate robots. Synths aren't sentient you know
the RR are fighting for a semi good cause, so yeah, not as bad as the two you mentioned
I have 300 hours of play... on a single game
I have 1374 hours between Xbox and PC
@@IAREDARK ok you beat me xd
🙋🏼♀
Hi
Hi
Wait, why is the Railroad the worst faction in the game?
Because their logic is: "We'll do anything to save the synths, even if that means killing a bunch of humans and blowing up the only place that makes more synths"
i would have been glad if you didn't spoiler all the quests. Wouldn't have been necessary.
I don't usually worry about spoilers since this game is almost 10 years old, but I am sorry if I spoiled anything for you
The worst faction in the game? Really? SMH
To be honest they're all pretty awful.
@@Outlander-wm9cd I was hoping the Brotherhood would be better, but they're like feuding cousins of the Institute now. The Railroad and the Minutemen are better just because they're not complete tools.
The Freedom Trail leads you to the WHAT faction?!
You heard what I said
@@IAREDARK Oh, I see, so it looks like we have a huge beef between us!
Can't leave a like, the worst faction (motivation-/moralitywise) is the institute
But 80% of the Railroad quests are literally just doing the Institute quests
Mucho juego pocas imágenes reales, muy mal vídeo
I agree that the railroad is the worst faction in fallout 4
not even the best fallout game fr
True, but a Vegas trip is on my bucket list
Yes it is. I've played both and the only thing going for New Vegas is nostalgia. Fallout 4 has immensely more replay value.
@@IAREDARKi live in vegas near black mountain. 110% better than fallout 4. 98% of LV is as accurate as the game
