Story: Act 1 - Follow this guide for the quickest route through the first half of the story and major side quest achievements. I've detailed the story achievements which you should expect to achieve and in which order, and when, where, and how to proceed with certain quest lines that will minimize time spent replaying to get them all. Minimal-spoiler walkthrough - If you want to avoid as many spoilers as possible, this is the page for you. General hints and tips - You'll find here a few general tips about character creation, as well as other general gameplay advice. I've added a little summary of the pages in this walkthrough below. Please feel free to submit any questions or concerns in the Walkthrough thread, especially if you notice significant variation in how your quests play out. Bethesda have championed their Radiant Quest system, and while this doesn't impact the story and faction quests quite as much, it's always possible that what you encounter in game will be slightly different to what's detailed in the walkthrough. For that reason it's impossible to say for sure how any given scenario will play out. One thing to keep in mind is that Fallout 4 is a very complex game, with an unimaginable number of variables in play throughout the Commonwealth at any given time.
