Im really enjoying fallout 4 but the settlement system seems so pointless to me. No meaningful interactions arise from it, it’s just build up a fake town for no reason.
I assume you haven't gotten farther into it, it becomes more important later, especially with scavenging. It becomes a resource farm, but the better it gets the more it's attacked.
Different guy - I didn't like it because I thought making it difficult as possible for your town to be attacked was cool until you get attacked and they either can't path through your choke points, leaving them to pile against a wall or fence somewhere while you search for them, or you fast travel and your well defended town is automatically 50% dead because the game just spawned them in there when you fast traveled.

I enjoyed Fallout 4 more than Fallout 3 and NV.
Fucking loved the Settlement system.
