Buddy Up With Nick Valentine
For the love of all synths bring Nick Valentine along while you travel. Far Harbors story revolves around solving a missing person case. A distraught family reaches out to Nick Valentines secretary to find their daughter Kasumi and she tasks you with solving the mystery. From a narrative standpoint, bringing Nick along opens up a ton of new dialogue options and as the story dives deeper into the world of synths, you uncover a whack-load of new backstory for Nick but only by having him as your companion — plus we all love his sarcastic wise-cracks don’t we?
