There is no denying that the Commonwealth is a pretty trashy place. That's the point. It's the Fallout aesthetic. But it's also important to consider human nature. People will rough it out in the short-term, but if people have been living in a place for years, they are almost certainly going to make at least some minimal effort to make their living situation slightly more comfortable, and the easiest way to do that is to sweep up some trash. Nobody who has filing cabinets is going to leave random papers scattered all over the floor. Nobody is going to want to sleep on dirt right next to a trash heap. Parents aren't going to let their children play right next to an unstable stack of cinder blocks.
Obviously, much of the decay is irreversible, and it makes perfect sense that in a demoralized world, people's standards are going to decline. That's a given. But it's simply unrealistic to expect someone to have a trash heap in their living room for years and not do anything about it.
That's where this Humans Live Here comes to the rescue. I have cleaned up some of the places where humans live and work in the Commonwealth and Far Harbor. This means that Far Harbor is necessary to use this mod. I have not done Nuka-World, and I probably won't simply because I expect raiders to live like animals.
Settlements have been left alone because these typically haven't been occupied for very long and because many players prefer to clean these places up themselves.
The non-inclusive list of major areas cleaned up include:
- Diamond City and all of its interiors with the lone exception of Home Plate for the aforementioned reason.
- Goodneighbor and its interiors, although less effort was made here because the people are trashier.
- Covenant and their underground base.
- Charles View Ampitheater
- The Prydwen
- Railroad HQ
- The dock market of Far Harbor
- Acadia
- The Nucleus (living in radiated filth doesn't mean they can't pick up after themselves)
