2222 Unlocking Eric requires progressing through a lengthy series of camp faction quests that involve building up the camp, recruiting members, and completing multiple mission-based objectives. The Solid Foundation questline requires first completing the Gathered Will questline, which involves building the farm and ranch and expanding the camp. Players report it takes roughly 40 to 45 hours of gameplay to reach this point.
