Then you grow up in the Sanctuary Hills settlement. Maybe you can play through the initial quest to get Sanctuary Hills set up as a settlement as your mother, with you being looked after by Codsworth. Later your mother manages to get you out of the vault, possibly with you playing as her. Kellogg knocks him out and decides to take your father, while keeping you and your mother as backups. Your father manages to escape their chamber and starts attacking Kellogg. You thaw out and you see Kellogg trying to take you, but your chamber is jammed. The way this would work is the beginning would play through as normal, but as you enter the cryogenic chambers, your view switches to Shaun. However, I think I came up with a solution.įor the alternative start mod, instead of playing as the father or mother of Shaun, you play as 'Shaun', obviously you can rename him and choose your gender. An alternate start mod would be a good start, but the fact that the character's predetermined backstory is so intertwined with the entire world makes it difficult. I recently watched the Get to Know Your Mod Authors stream, and during it they discussed how to make Fallout 4 more re-playable.
