Traversing the Boston wasteland can be challenging, sometimes even exceptionally complicated. But with these Fallout 4 cheats, you can make your post-apocalyptic life much easier!
The Fallout 4 open world means a lot of freedom, complex decisions, and quests to complete. Sure, playing a game like this in its purest form is fun!
But if you wonder how to make the whole adventure a little easier or just encountered some unsolvable problem – use this short guide on Fallout 4 console commands.
Unlocking and Utilizing the Console
Video games exist for entertainment, so there is nothing wrong with making them even more enjoyable. The best way to achieve this goal is to use console commands – simple codes that change some gameplay features. This way, you can erase your last colossal mistake or grant yourself better skills to freely explore the Boston wasteland.
To embark on your adventure with commands, press the tilde (~) if you use an American English keyboard. Those with a British English keyboard can achieve this goal by clicking the grave button (`). If none of them work, choose the apostrophe key (‘).
Most commands involve entering a brief series of characters listed below. However, some may require more effort by adding a certain number of items and their identificators.
The command may look like this: player.additem [itemID] [#]. As you probably already guessed, itemID stands for the name of the item you want to add, and the # stands for its number. Enter your desired values and have fun! After typing all your dream codes, close the console and enjoy the game with new improvements. Now, let’s proceed to the list of the best cheats for your favorite Fallout 4 game.

Summary
Console commands are easy to use and remember. Some make you invincible, while others resurrect an accidentally killed NPC. Operating them means having absolute control over the progress – and many players find this particularly tempting.
But there’s a catch – overdoing it can lead to ultimate gaming burnout. Because why play a game if it can complete everything itself? Nevertheless, we strongly encourage you to try these commands and choose the set that suits you best. At the end of the day, we are all different, and you decide your definition of fun!
