D'awww... :(
 
In F4 I really dislike when you're a leader of a faction and you still get stupid tasks like "go and kill x in location x" from your subordinates. I'm the leader damn it, I should be able to get someone else to do it for me. Really being a faction leader should open up alternatives to built up your faction instead, train and assign agents to do different tasks, like need to build a settlement, create a plan and layout for the town and then send some workers to start building, a town needs help with raiders/ghouls/super mutants, send some soldiers to protect them and so forth.
But I guess that's to much to ask from a game markedet as an rpg... :shrug:
That's why I stick with the Railroad, cause at least then I'm still a field agent at the end of the story and they actually have endgame radiant missions that make sense for my position in their group, unlike being the general of the minutemen or director of the institute where you get ordered around to do the same old missions.

"General a couple of feral ghouls are hold up nearby please go kill them. General, local jokel joe's son was kidnapped for the 10 time today, go and rescue him or pay 500 caps. General build us a town cause we are totally incompetent and can't do anything on our own! so General what's your response? Sarcastic, Yes. No. I hate Super Mutants." < infinitve repeat.

That's a drawback of a lot of open world singleplayer games, this randomly spawned XY missions. It seems to be more difficult to pogram a good working AI in this huge space and fill it with a story completely.
In Skyrim it was similar.
I was just gonna say that. Same with subordinates deploying their superiors.
I'm kinda torn between F4 and Elder Scrolls online for my next purchase. Suggestions?

ESO was atrocious. But it does give you the chance to play with other people. Just don't go into it expecting Skyrim: Online. Or even Oblivion: Online. It's a clunky, shitty, mmo, with elder scrolls painted over it.

F4 has it's problems, as every bethesda release has had. It's one of the smallest maps as well. But this game is densely packed with content. No level cap and scaling enemies (in certain areas) keeps you on your toes. There's so many different things to focus on if you don't want to speed through the story, moreso than any other fallout or elder scrolls game.

After I recieved the suicide note from Liam Binet who'se entire family died in the destruction of the Institute(and the rather dismissive attitute of my faction's leader) I reverted to an earlier save and commited myself fully to the Institute, having to choose between my son and friends was somewhat difficult, turning the gun on my former buddy Deacon was hard.


But looking back, the Railroad ending is definitly the most destructive(blowing up both the Prydwen and the Institute). I don't see why they couldn't just take over the place instead of blowing it up and creating a huge radioactive crater in the middle of Boston.
The Institute's methods might not have been entirely ethical, but a lot of the knowledge and technology they had could have been used for good.

Though neither ending leaves me completly satisfied but I guess things aren't black & white, just shades of grey. Even the BOS Xenophobic view on ghouls, synths and super mutants might be somewhat warranted at times as they sure do create alot of chaos and trouble, but humans are just as capable of being equally destructive(humans are the ones who created all these problems in the first place). Just as you can't judge all humans on how the raiders behave neither can you with synths, there are both good and bad. So BOS mantra of "kill all mutants and synths because they are abominations" make them my number one enemy.
