Why does Nuka-World have so many collectibles? Fallout Lore

get collectin'

[N_orte]

i will say that having too many collectibles can get overwhelming

[ElValuador]

I’ve never understood the hate that some have towards Nuka-world. The story, perks and collectibles are pretty dang good. Far Harbor is just excellent by comparison.

It was also the final DLC for Fallout 4. They may have wanted to make it last for the player.

-Collecting at 35 Star Cores to get the Nuka Cola X-01

PROFITS BECAUSE OF PROFITS MY COSTUMERS

My last play through was as a raider. At the end of Cappy in a haystack I took Sierra’s offered jumpsuit and left. Leaving John Caleb Bradberton with his biggest fan seemed the sadistic option. 😬

It could also reference families leaving stuff at these places

[Rich-fryv]

I think it's because collectables were a big trend in gaming at the time (more so than usual) and Bethesda was chasing trends

Within about ten minutes out of the gauntlet, you get three fetch quests

It's one large fetch quest. Also the achievements for the DLC are hell

[cys_box]

it helps capture the padding and needless bloat that i had to endure to go through this DLC

[Uninspiredradio]

I actually really like Nuka World for this reason

[DSprich]

I thought the collectables were just an easy way of padding out the dlc. It doesn't really need it, so I found collecting all of these for the sake of the achievements to be a real pain without much reward in terms of exploration. I'd have much preferred quests unique to each of the gangs/factions like there were in the base game and in Far Harbor.

The star cores are the bane of my existence

[Boanine]

I feel like its a reference to all the steel bars in The Pitt steelyard since the nuka world dlc definitely has some similarities with The Pitt

[MACODeltaForce]

This is one of reasons why Nuka World is an awesome DLC!

[davel]

Probably to make up for the short length

[ChickenSiren]

Will never compare to 243 riddler trophies in Batman Arkham knight, that’s hell

[pogarmor]

I should’ve 100%ed it while I was still on my Xbox. Now I have to rebuy it on my computer.

This is endgame content. After one complete main quest, does all side quests, completes Mechanic and Far Harbor, there are little left to do. And then you have a lot of collectibles and you can be „the bad one”

[youtubersdigest]

I’d say for immersion. We know Nuka Cola was the kind of company to spare no expense for advertising. Especially not in their own amusement park
