Does anyone else play these games first and foremost, as if they were an item hoarding simulator?

My largest goal is always to establish a base of operations, and then collect everything I can get my hands on.

Hell yeah I do.

I even have my hoarding stashes documented as saves. I go to an area and I get overburdend and can't get out of it, I start moving everything in the area to a stash close to the exit and fill it up. I then save and try to position my character infront of the stash so I know it is a save marking a stash. Also making sure to overwrite the save if I take something from it. Then I can come back to it later by easily finding the save, and even see if what I'm missing is there. (I rarely do ever go back and visit these places, but the hoarding mentality just tells me that this is important).

The base building in FO4 I just find annoying. I just took the first best cupboard in the red rocket and started filling. So its not a base base, just a few cupboards filled with endless amounts of gear and trash.

Red Rocket in F4 is always my first temporary base. Then once I unlock better settlements towards the middle of the map, I'll build a bunch of storage containers there.
