If there's anyone who hasn't clicked to something else after reading all those LittleKuriboh references, let's move on to the next entry: Best Left Forgotten from Fallout 4: Far Harbor.

Far Harbor isn't the best Fallout 4 DLC (that would be Nuka World) but it still has a lot of quality content to offer. But then again, it also has this mission stashed away in its main plot. For such an important mission to the overall story of Far Harbor, you'd think you'd get more out of it than you do.

Basically, at the behest of DiMA, you have to get the guy's old stored memory's from a computer...owned by the children of atom. Who do not like you. At all. But if you manage to sneak/savage your way through them to the computer, you're met with easily the most frustrating part of the DLC.

You have to use the settlement building system to solve overly complicated puzzles throughout the computer world. Main problem? It does not tell you this, how to do it, or how the system works in this context. It's all guess work.

And your reward? 500 XP. Which - at this point in the game - is chump change.
