Book Collector - Philosophy for the Wasteland

==========================================

Book Collector: Philosophy for the Wasteland

This treasure hunt adds 40 classic works of western philosophy to the Commonwealth for you to collect. You can put them in custom bookcases to show off and watch them collect dust, or you can actually read them and learn new things about Life, Death, and Everything Else!

Finding the books

It’s a treasure hunt, so I’m not going to spoil all your fun here. There’s no quest or location markers. However, there is a treasure map with all the locations marked on it to be found. You’ll find the map, with a short note, on an angry writer’s desk, in a seaside cabin along the road from South Boston to Quincy, pretty close to a particularly noisy quarry. Also, some of the included screen shots might point you in the right direction. All books were hand-placed by me across the Commonwealth (none in Far Harbor or Nuka World). To reduce the risk of conflicts, I’ve tried to avoid placing these books in locations that are already touched by many other mods out there. You’ll find most of them in unmarked interior and exterior locations spread across the map that I thought could use a little love: shacks, cabins, cellars, offices, and so on. Off the beaten track, places that often require a little exploring and a sense of adventure. Some locations make a little sense, others do not. None of them are locked behind quests, none require joining a certain faction, and most do not require any special skills such as lock picking. All you have to do is find them.

Reading the books

Picking up a book for the first time triggers a pop-up message, which includes a short introduction to the writer’s philosophy (my interpretations) and a quote from this particular book. Most likely, the books will appear under ‘Misc/Notes’ in your Pip-Boy i
