They literally want to replace humanity with humabity 2.0
what does this mean. "mankind redefined"? their synth slave workforce? pointless. we have mr handys for that who can do many different tasks at once. synths made even more pointless by the fact that bethesda decided to give mr handys full on human-like artificial intelligence. why would you give things designed to be slaves the ability to think freely anyway.
synth harambes? still not the real thing.
hey guys we're stealing a baby from a vault of cryogenically sleepy people but we gotta leave ONE of them alive as a backup so why not leave the one alive who's MOST likely to come and seek revenge on us and fuck our shit up
Not to mention the fact that the other advances the Institute has made are rendered entirely useless by the other games and Fallout 4 itself.
Institute BioScience? The Shi created a radiation-absorbing plant decades ago that cleared the entire San Francisco area of radiation. Not only that, but before the Institute started fucking about the reactor the Shi were finding new ways to synthesize a new fuel using seaweed and aquatic life as well as building their own nuclear reactors.
Teleportation? The Think Tank has that covered.
Synth army? What's wrong with Sentry bots and Assaultrons who proved to be much more of a nuisance to me than any courser did?
Robotics in general? Think Tank again.
Father has cancer? Damn, we're fucked, not like there's
a virus that grants immunity to disease (which the institute has a serum for reversing the mutation),
a scientist who achieved immortality or a
Miss Nanny who singlehandedly cured every single disease affecting humanity using vault resources. Shame the Institute with their centuries of scientific research can't do anything. May as well pass over leadership to some guy we just met even if he fucked us over at bunker hill.
also the institute probably makes GMOs
Compare that to glorified raiders with a hard on for history.
You mean the nutty professors who can't figure out what their goals are are more "layered" and "interesting" than a man who used his educated background to take advantage of the tribes of the wasteland and use them to build a massive post-war society modeled on one of the most powerful empires in history in order to challenge the flawed old-world ideology of the NCR while still managing to restore order to large portions of the wasteland? the faction that actually presents a pretty frightening threat to the wasteland yet hinges on the survival of its leader due to the way he's built it up?
The Gunners are the most successful and powerful mercenary group in the series.
you mean, just raiders but more heavily armed? just fallout 4's version of talon company? the only interaction you have with them is getting shot on sight? why would you compare them to the fiends anyway who are just a raider group operating in western vegas (although you can actually talk to the fiends if you convince them that you're a drug dealer)?
The Railroad is one of the single best Fallout factions. One of the actual selfless ones (in the same vein as the Followers), but also cynical and pragmatic. Like any ideal, they can never truly be stamped out, even though they're greatly outmatched by the Institute and BoS. If you wipe out their HQ for either faction, it's implied the movement lives on, because that's the nature of the group. They don't stand and fight to the last man like a cliche honor squad, they live to fight another day. All in all an expertly designed faction.
dude toasters more important than people lmao
ran by a load of idiots. dude lets blow up the institute and save only about 20 synths lmao instead of taking advantage of father's stupidity and using the sole survivor's eventual status as a leader to steer the institute towards a more desirable path, acting like an actual underground organisation, changing the institute from within. actually do some good for the wasteland rather than saving a few slaves and not having a long term plan
The CoA is scary, they were never meant to be some funny thing.
wait, so confessor cromwell wasn't just obligatory bethesda preacher man?
Fallout desperately needed a faction built around a religion
i agree, falloutâ„¢ has
never had a
faction based
around religion before
a stroke of genius to have the religion revolve around the Great War itself.
a stroke of genius to have a religion worshipping a nuke, something even the master, the most evil being in the franchise, completely despised and feared himself, something that was established to be a universally hated thing before bethesda went all DUDE NUKES LMAO on the series
The fact you don't like the FO4 iteration of the CoA just shows how truly entrenched you are in your blind hate for the game.
this is a dumb statement and you know it
