None of them are willing to put their lives on the line, even Paladin Danse who is a synth put his life down on the line and committed to the brotherhood to a fault. He died for the cause unless you have a million charisma and told you he was proud of you to build a better future.

Minutemen and BoS.

Minutemen to keep the peace and help the people, BoS because they have the right idea: Remove mutant and synth scum instead of being SJWs trying to save everybody/thing.

Their first goal is the preservation of humanity by removing the immediate threats: Synths, super mutants, etc. and worry about the small, non-species threatening shit later, if at all.

I don't agree with them on technology or other points, but they have the means to get shit done, everything aside from removing shitskins comes second.

Kind of. The Institute want to stay underground, destroy the mainland, and reclaim it eventually. The enclave originated from the top 1% of the country before the start of the war. They wanted to build a spaceship to leave this planet, not even joking. After this obviously didn't work, they decided on eradicating the mainland population, as they were all not pure humans.

I've read in more than a few places that Chicago is possibly the last outpost of the Enclave. Not that they're a major faction and need to be put down, but like the last holdouts, far removed from everything. You, me and everyone in the e-world will say NO NO NO, NO MORE ENCLAVE, but even obsidian touched that by having ED-E stop there to be serviced by whatever Enclave was there and willing to help.

Exactly. You don't really play fallout for the story or writing, there will be plenty of mods for that later anyways.

I've just been exploring, found an old suit of power armor next to a crashed vertibird.

Went wandering for 30 minutes, found some dude also in power armor who is friendly. No dialog options other than him saying he likes my armor.

Spent the next hour and a half following him as he charges into every super mutant den and raider hideout in the area removing the scum.

Dude just didn't know when to quit, it was eventually him just throwing the odd grenade with a completely destroyed set of power armor charging in as I cover him with a minigun, vertibirds coming out of nowhere and exploding mid-air, sometimes dropping off some paladins.

Fallout 3's Enclave was more than a little inspired by the Shi. By the time you arrive in San Fran in F2, they're being run by a court that acts as a screen for a predictive supercomputer - the former naval pseudo-AI of the Shi's submarine - they call the Emperor.

I did not mean literal autism anyway. What I am trying to say that organisation itself is working "flawlessly" but their communication (or lack of it) with the Wasteland is the reason why they are percieved as the enemy.

Mods can not save the base game from being trash. The gameplay is thoughtless.
Fallout went from 2 of the best isometric turn based RPG's ever, to a Tactical RPG that still resembled the originals, to a hack and slash atrocity, to a FPS RPG hybrid abomination.
>>
>>55782608
Fallout 3 had a good main storyline, but it was more of an on-rail game. With NV you could choose your faction. Fallout 4 kinda leans toward NV in that respect, as you choose your faction, but the factions are definitely not as drastically different as in NV.
>>
>>55782608
Well, Fallout 1 & 2 are turn-based, so if you haven't ever played one it might be difficult to get into those games.

Fallout 3's story sucks, but I wouldn't say it's a bad game. It's still fun to explore the wasteland and most of the DLC is enjoyable.

"Imagine a version of Skyrim where somebody keeps telling you that the world is being destroyed by dragons, but you never actually see a single dragon anywhere in your travels. Instead there’s just a lone singed peasant outside of town who tells you he needs a health potion because he was attacked by a dragon, and he always needs a health potion no matter how many you give him, and he’s the only guy in the world that seems to have a problem with dragons. That’s Fallout 3."

New Vegas has only 4 real factions too.

>>55783105
Certainly the best way to look at it, yes. Although then people can argue about how incredibly linear the DLC is; there's precious little flexibility in it. You go from one zone to the next in an uninterrupted line. That was also kind of a letdown, especially after Old World Blues.

>>55783120
Yeah, but only a few of them were actually relevant and important.

4 Faction endings, it has several factions. Not all joinable though.

" For our purposes, neither Fallout Tactics nor Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel happened."

There is probably some lore from them, though, Bethesda is so stupid they can't follow their own lore. The retcons in Fallout 4 are awful.
>>
>>55783229
Which makes them pretty much irrelevant as factions.
>>
>>55783159
No battle in any of the modern Fallout games is "challenging." It's more that you spend all this time in the rest of the game hearing about (and listening to) Ulysses, and then when you meet him he's just this bitter, obsessive wreck that blames you for things you had absolutely no knowledge of.

Brotherhood of Steel, because fuck ghouls, fuck mutants and fuck degenerate criminals.

Sadly the Enclave is not a joinable faction in this game, they were based as fuck.

the game is garbage, the only redeeming quality of any bethesda game is modding them into pretty looking porn/waifu simulators. So fallout 4 won't be playable until a year from now when lots of the good mods have been released.

I don't remember that much of effect on the universe except mentions in the ending reel.

>Wanting a robot/synth waifu.

Only downside with Piper is that she isn't red-pilled about the Institute. Hopefully a mod fixes that and she uses her newspaper in Diamond City to espouse Institute propaganda.

>And if the ghoul press today believes that it can make veiled threats against the Institute, they should quit lying. For one day our patience will reach its end and we'll shut their lying, irradiated mouths!

The entire T-60 power armour thing tickles my lore-autism something fierce. It has the aesthetics of the T-45, but outperforms the T-51, which was *supposed* to be the final word in pre-War power armour design. I could understand if the T-60 was a sort of intermediary design (better materials and understanding of requirements, but still lacking the polish and refinement of the much more slickly-designed T-51) that never saw large-scale production, but apparently it was actually in relatively widespread use, especially on the homefront.
>>
>>55783291
Is there a Minuteman ending you can choose then, or a Brotherhood ending?

You can join the Brotherhood in New Vegas too, and decide their fate, but it's not an ending you can choose. Same with most of the factions. If that's irrelevant than so is all the factions in 4.
>>
>>55783217
I really don't believe that linearity is a problem in any of the DLCs due to the story of each, but each to their own.

Minutemen because I control them

Why let yourself get keked by another flawed faction? The choices aren't great but I'll at least choose the one I have some influence over.

>>
>>55783502
It lacked the tension and run-down grandeur of Dead Money, the idealism and lush environs of Honest Hearts, and the fantastic humour of OWB. It was a straightforward slog through yet another irradiated deathzone that culminated in a total non-event of a 'conclusion.'

Nobody ever remembers Myron. So declared the ending of Fallout 2. That oblivion of obscurity apparently includes Bethsoft.
>>
>>55783217
Hmm, ok. Since Ulysses was mentioned in the main game and all the other DLCs, and LR was supposed to conclude the entire plotline that revolved around his and the courier's past relationship, I can understand why some fans left were disappointed.
A drop in quality in both the storytelling and gameplay departments probably didn't help, either.
>>
>>55783604

Shit, I fucked up and said not a pre-war item. I meant to say it is a pre-war item in fallout 4. Sorry.

I got what you meant. Again, nobody remembers Myron. The situation is so grim that he has effectively been retconned.
>>
>>55783462

They purposefully never really make a clear statement on power armor, T-51 was the last mass produced power armor issued to the military during the Sino-American War, but it's entirely possible that T-60 was beginning to be issued right before the bombs dropped in small amounts.

In real life the Army actually does shit like this, certain units get priority on new equipment, and it often takes years for the Army to roll out some new shit across the board. The vast majority of the military was probably still using T-51 when the bombs dropped.
>>
>>55783598

>Ghouls
>White

The Institute is literally the white man; blamed for everything (colonization, for example) whilst only attempting to build a better world.
>>
>>55778805

So which one are better Caeasers Legion or Brotherhood of steel? Can someone tell me pros and cons of both?
>>
>>55783711
Still, I liked LR for what it was.
As I proceeded down the highway, my supplies began to dwindle. Without ammo and the increasingly tough enemies, I got really nervous and had to play smarter. I liked the tenseness of the situation and the challenge of reaching Ulysses without giving up and returning later.
>>
Why does the X-01 armor look like enclave armor?

>>55783462
It would have been better if the T-60 was treated as the latest model and was just being rolled out when the bombs fell.
>>
>>55783838
Yea I could see that angle too.

I need to get farther through the main story before I fully understand the institute's role.

Getting distracted with impressing mai waifu Abby by helping the minutemen
>>
>>55783816
You see guys around V111 wearing T-60s before the bombs drop. Seeing as, as far as we know, West Tek was responsible for the development of power armour design, one must wonder why they made the evolutionary leap from T-45 (stopgap, bulky, plenty of exposed surfaces) to T-51 (evolved, smoothly curved, little vulnerable cabling/joints) back to T-60 (once again bulky and angular). Advanced Power Armour was clearly an evolution of the T-51 series with its emphasis on deflective curvature and uncluttered lines, so why the back-and-forth?

>>55783990
The X-01 was apparently prototype power armour used by the Secret Service. Still, the entire point behind APA was that it was developed by the Enclave post-War - at great difficulty, cost, and injury to test subjects. So much for that.

>>
>>55783606
It was supposed to tie together all of those references and grim messages left by Ulysses. I found the conversations between Ulysses and the Courier to be interesting, to say the very least, and I think the DLC completed its objective. It certainly didn't have the grandeur in the environment as the others had.

> fantastic humour of OWB
All I hear about OWB is how people like the humor. I thought it shared many of the beautiful qualities that dead money had. Its very hard for me to articulate, but I burn to see the thick film of dust covering the Big Mountain laboratories, I want to hear the ghosts in the Sierra Madre villa and Hologram system. That's the best way I can put it. Those stories affected me deeply.

Man you made it hard for me to chose , both seems pretty based. So which one would you recommend me?

New Vegas is really good, despite shitty Gamebryo engine. I've probably played it around 6 times it's just so entertaining.

I'll be honest when I say I have a large distrust of Bethesda, and pirated FO4 within a day. Needless to say, I wasn't surprised at what I got. The writing is terrible, graphics look like shit, and the animations are so bad that Bethesdas laziness and halfassery are evident.

The game, nevertheless, managed to be so much fun I bought it full price yesterday. Building up my trash towers, running a high charisma barter build and making America Great Again has been really enjoyable.

>>
>>55784189
Oh yeah, beyond just the humour, Big MT is fantastic - the way it ties into all this other mad-science shit you've seen in the rest of New Vegas. It is the terror of science utterly divorced from any constraining ethics or morality, progress purely for progress' sake; all this delivered - largely - with flippant whimsy. That contradiction is superb.
>>
>>55784287
>I like brotherhood because of the High Tech
What is this nonsense. The Institute got the high tech. BoS are like the asian market; cloning and cheapening superior technology.

Not to worry they are sterile and won't reproduce, thus endangering the region.
>>
>>55784092

The loading screen for it says it was supplied to troops to help maintain order during the final days before the bombs fell. Maybe they found the bulky look was better for crowd control, more intimidating looking while still having the better performance and protection capabilities the T-51 had over the T-45.

I'm sure we could spend a long time arguing over the why of the design but it probably just came down to Bethesda wanting to make a new suit of power armor to bridge the gap between the T-51 and the X-01 gameplay wise.

Maybe two different development lines. One mass-produced (T-45, T-60) and one special (T-51, X-01/APA) line. That wouldn't explain why everyone at Anchorage was wearing T-51s tho.
