What fucking faction should I pick? All of em are shit
>>319801267
>factions
I thought they were meaningless?
Take whatever
Railroad
BoS are corrupt and trigger-happy as fuck
Institute is shit because they literally kill people just to replace them with robots
Minutemen are okay I guess but they're pretty boring compared to the rest.
>>319801267
Pick the one that has the bonuses you like.
BOS has power armor and drop ships.
RR has balistic weave and the deliverer
MM has MM backup and artillery
I don't know about institute as I'm not that far.
>>319801668
The institute isn't that bad. Shaun seems like a good guy when you speak with him.
Atom Cats
is this game as easy to pirate as the others
>>319803225
Yes.
>>319801267
Brotherhood of Steel anon.
>>319802141
>Good guy
>Call him out on his shit
>HURR YOU WOULDN'T UNDERSTAND DAD, WE'RE HELPING HUMANITY
>Never does shit for the Commonwealth despite his claims
>Goes on the surface once in his life and calls it shit despite only being there for a few minutes
>Coursers say that the surface-dwellers should die off
Nah he's a bit of an asshole.
>>319801267
The Brotherhood.
The Institute are shit, why? cause you ever seen the fucking Terminator.
The Railroad is a bunch of hippy faggots who have no long term goal, its just muh freedom and look how muh freedom worked out for the commonwealth.
The Minutemen are just discount brotherhood, without you, they would be nothing. They don't have enough discipline.
The Brotherhood are the best option, they need to go back down Elder Lyons path and get the people of the wasteland on the side of the brotherhood or when they lock horns with them, the brotherhood will lose out.
The Minutemen are the best.
>>319801267
>>319801267
I don't know man.
I was gonna go with the Institute until I met a Synth that tried to kill a real man and pretend to be him. Now I'm not sure since BoS sucks dick.
Who /Maxell/ here?
>>319803501
>YOU DONT UNDERSTAND
>THE PEOPLE DONT UNDERSTAND
>No option to ask "Why the shit are you murdering people and replacing them with Synths"
>All questions lead to "You wouldn't understand"
>>319801668
>Railroad
>Literally PETA for synths
>Would kill real people just to save machines configured to look, think, and feel like humans do
>>319801668
>Railroad
>>31980126760Minutemen are worth building up.
The quests are almost all raidient tier and building settlements can get boring but if you stick with it you can call in arty across most of the map.
>>319804436
>would kill soldiers to save civilians
Seems sensible.
>>319804334
>Tell him synths can develop sentience
>banishes you
> later says "You never cared"
Bitch earned that buckshot round to the face.
>>319805761
How do you even get more artillery grenades and flares?
>>319804436
They were only concerned with saving gen 3 synths, which are organic beings that are indistinguishable from humans.
The minutemen are the only viable choice, simply because you don't have to murder everyone else to get their ending. You can even evacuate half the institute.
>>319806858
Duncan says Glory and some others want to save all synths, but then goes to say something along the lines of, "But it's a touchy argument, cause if we save gen 1 and 2s then what else? computers and microwaves?
>>319802141
>>319807108
I want to save P.A.M.and by save i mean stick my penis in
>>319807538
Shaun has big dreams and there is nothing that matters to him other than making the world into a paradise. Everything else is meaningless in comparison so why would he even spare a thought on getting petty revenge?
When you look at it from this perspective that wall of text just seems ridiculous.
>>319809006
It seems pretty ridiculous anyway, as it's amply explained in-game that unfreezing the SS so long later was his own personal pet project.
If you carefully navigate the questline you can side with the minute men and only wage war with the institute. The other factions will not interfere and all companions will still be alive
>>319810347
Do the railroad still disband? That happened in my game. They didn't die, but they...gave up.
>>319807071
That doesn't make the Minutemen viable faggot. All it means is you don't need to destroy the other factions, doesn't mean they're any good for the Commonwealth.
>>319801668
>BoS are corrupt and trigger-happy as fuck
>>319801267
Anything but the fucking Minutemen, unless you enjoy doing infinite repeating copy and pasted "GO HELP THIS SETTLEMENT HERE" quests.
>>319806608
>synths
>civilians
Pick one.
>>319812298
>doesn't mean they're any good for the Commonwealth.
No, i'd have thought the fact that they're building houses, setting up water production, keeping defences, patrolling settlements and maintaining an alert system would be proof of that.
>>319807538
Actually, your pic is incorrect in like one place.
In the vault111 if you go exploring a bit, you find that they unfroze everyone, killed the mom/dad and took the baby, then froze everyone again. The project was only supposed to last 6 months but everyone lost their shit and killed one another off. so the only reason you lived was because the system failed after 210 years and you woke up instead of suffocating like everyone the fuck else.
>>319813561
>the only reason you lived was because the system failed after 210 years
Shaun literally tells you he was the one who lets you out of the Vault. Play the game, nigger.
>>319814231
I did...I didnt listen to shaun and shot him instead..fuck the institute.
>>319801267
Join jangles.

Except they're not humans. They're androids who have been built and brainwashed to believe that's what they are.

Do you lick your mother with that mouth?
Hey guys, what's the best settlement where I can build from scratch? No dumb houses in the way and all that like sanctuary.
>>319818452
Starlight drive in. Nice flat open space.
>>319818535
Much obliged.
>>319818351
I'm sorry sir, but we can't take this item back, because it's been opened. We can give you a trade-in of Twenty dollars and fifteen cents?
>>319818406
What? Not uninstalling fallout 4?
>>319818610
You're very welcome, sir.
>>319816604
Its my 3rd playthrough
>>319818753
fuck, it hilighted the no by default
>>319817108
I named my silenced Sniper Rifle "Just my Imagination"
Alternatively "Must be the Wind"
>>319805761
But why bother? The game turns into a snore fest before level 20 in terms of difficulty.
>>319818406
Basically this. Over-hyped mediocre game.
What is humanity? Is it flesh and bone? Or is it the ability to reason and feel? If it is the latter, then gen 3 synths are as human as you and I. The institute are slave labourers. The railroad fight for those who cannot fight for themselves. If a few scientist die during the synth emancipation so be it. It's the hubris and short sightedness of men and women like the institute scientist that led to the planets destruction.
>>319812416
>>BoS are corrupt and trigger-happy as fuck
They are though, Anon. They are.
>>319819826
>trigger-happy
>legitimately needing nuclear weapons to get into The Institute
So, why are they trigger happy again?
>>319819491
How do you know Gen 3 Synths are even sentient beings who experience consciousness?
>>319819959
>So, why are they trigger happy again?
The BoS has turned into an fanatical military dictatorship behind Maxson's rule. Maxson demands the BoS to follow his orders without question and his goal is to lead a genocide crusade across the Wasteland against anything he personally considers to not be human enough.
>>319818726
EXCUSE ME??? YALL NEED TA GIVE ME MA MONEY BACK ASAP!!! YALL RACIST AS FUCK.
>>319820114
Oh, and if you're curious what that screen is, that's when yousecure several hundred full-sized nuclear bombs for the Brotherhood Of Steel, which they intend to use.
>>319820114
The Brotherhood have always been a Xenophobic group you fucking little slimy Bethesdrone. The BoS in Fallout 3 are NOT the BoS, Bethesda fucked up and at least tried to rectify the problem.
>>319820114
Yes? And?
Its the FO universe. Under Bethesda they are canon good guys.
>>319820236
They used them to infiltrate the Institute, what's your point?
>>319820284
>The Brotherhood have always been a Xenophobic group you fucking little slimy Bethesdrone. The BoS in Fallout 3 are NOT the BoS, Bethesda fucked up and at least tried to rectify the problem.
Yes, but the BoS was about securing the tech to prevent its use. The BoS in 4 is securing weapons purely to use them.
>>319817108
called my fat man the big guy.
>>319820554
The BoS in 4 was about using pre-war weapons to destroy advanced post-war weapons.
>Yes, but the BoS was about securing the tech to prevent its use.
That's why I said they tried to rectify the problem. The fucking idiots don't even understand the universe they bought the rights to help add to.
>>319820236
>infiltrate
Just like how the US infiltrated France on DDAY, dicks out and balls to the white walls of dover
>>319820554
Tell me more about all that institute tech they secured
Oh wait they didnt

>"We need you to secure these advanced AI robot from the Institute."
>[SCARCASTIC] Alright, whatever. Oh, by the way the Institute has a giant underground facility with technology and practically limitless power."
>"Don't worry, we'll blow it up later. AD VICTORIAM."
>>319821108
>>319820767
Why would they want the means to create synths, FEV and sweater-vest combos? Anything useful, they would have gotten from Madison Li.
>>319821184
>practically limitless power
They don't have that. It's the whole point. Play the game, nigger.
the melee ever get fun
>>319801267
Do what I did.
>freeroam
>build villages
>get bored
>uninstall the game
I truly feel sorry for whoever was dumb enough to actually buy this shit full price.
>>319821402
Whatever, they're still powering the place somehow and have massive stockpiles of technology that the BoS fucking blows up.
Thanks, Todd.
>>319821835
They're running out of power. The technology they have is either heretical to the BoS, already owned by the BoS or useless to the BoS.
It's not our fault if you can't understand shit.
>>319802141
sweet Stockholm syndrome
>>319820080
how do i know you're not just a dog on the internet
>>319822009
>heretical technology to the BoS
Again, a giant fucking facility pack loaded with a lot more tech than just synthetics. Already owned and useless to the BoS, do you honestly not see a difference between the two factions?
>>319801267
it doesn't matter the end it's all the same
your choices don't matter
>>319822193
On the internet, nobody knows you're a dog.
>>319822365
It's fucking heretical shit, dude. No way the BoS would want that. What are they going to do, make their own synths and supermutants?
It's clearly stated that the Institute is fucked for power, food and water. They need to make scavenging raids topside for all that stuff.
The most they could do with it would be to use it as a forward base, but they probably wouldn't want to live there, or operate out of it.
>>319822512
confirmed for not playing the game.
This isn't New Vegas we're talking about, where the NCR are still friendly to you even after fucking bombing the long 15.
>>319804078
wait do they do this for all factions?
can I get the trophies for joining them before this or does permanently joining trigger them?
I just got the game and am contemplating how to Platinum it
>>319822872
>What are they going to do, make their own synths and supermutants?
They could preserve any technology that wasn't used to make synthetics that could still benefit them. Not one cool Institute gadget was taken, BLOW IT UP GUYS.
That's not the BoS.
>>319823149
Just make multiple saves.
>>319823257
I could but it'd be easier to just do it all in one go if possible
>>319823218
But much technology was saved when I went in before the assault and stole everything that wasn't nailed down.
>>319823903
>But much technology was saved

i went to institute as my int build who dosn't love people , just mr.handy robots (partner with codsworth or mr.nanny)
