📋 About This Mod

Enjoyed the mod this past decade? Consider supporting me on Patreon or Ko-fi :)

What kind of newspaper only prints five articles? What does Piper do in her spare time? How can Nat afford to eat?

Publick Occurrences Expanded is a simple immersion mod that adds extra news articles from the pen of Piper Wright. Simply check in with Nat (at Publick Occurrences in Diamond City) to find new, lore-friendly coverage of your adventures in the Commonwealth.

To start receiving the articles, you will need to complete 'Story of the Century' and gain the option of Piper as a companion. This mod is best enjoyed from the start of a new save, so you don't get all of the articles at once.
