So you can kill everybody and say mean things while saving your son, or what you think is your son.

They should have just allowed for more freedom, thats it
FO4 has no evil playthrough, only good or less good
>>320934439
I would've honestly liked to see a raider option where you are the warlord that subjugates all other raider factions. I'd ask why couldn't have done that, but it is Bethesda.
>>320934439
>kill him and scrap his remains
that's where you stop since he's unkillable
gg

>preston wants you to save him

But they are the good guys and raiders are bad Anon. Did you even play the game?
Seems like some nice ideas.
Too bad this is Bethesda we're talking about here and nothing like this will ever be in one of their games ever again and continuing to dream about what-ifs is both meaningless and just plain depressing for as long as that miserable shitheap of a company holds onto the IP.

It would also help if the game didn't completely break if you play it at high framerates.
too much choice honestly
>achievement: kill shaun with his baby rattle using junk jet
or
>kill your son who corrupted the Institute/convince him that you take over
>help Paladin Danse organizing a coup against the current leaders of the BOS and placing your puppet as the new leader
>convince/force a new leadership on the Railroad so they are in line with the Institute / or change the Institute so they are more in line with the Railroad
Congratulation you more or less peacefully took over the Commonwealth. Now it's time to build a functioning society and bringing everything back to pre-war conditions.

So basically East Coast Legion? that would be fun.

Somewhat like that I suppose, but without all the LARPing.
