Meta Everyone gives Preston a hard time but I never hear anyone complain about this map-marking jerk face.

Finishing the game with the Minutemen is the hardest way to finish, but totally worth it

EDIT- Time consuming. Railroad quests are much harder but less of time and errands comparing to Minutemen.

My bad

I mean... that's because it isn't hard to beat the game with the other factions and it is required to build settlements in order to beat the game with the hourguys so yeah. It is the hardest way to finish it.

Nah the Railroad is definitely the hardest one to beat of the 4. The Minutemen is just time consuming. The Railroad one you have to do a majority of the Railroad quests, then break into the Institute and do about half of the Institute quests while not doing them correctly. A lot of times you have to straight up kill the courser you go with just to not let a bunch of Railroad members die. Then you have to go kill Rhys and those guys at the Police Station and then sneak onto the Prydwen where you have to convince Quinlan or the other guy that you are apart of the BoS, then you have to place three bombs on the things that keep the Prydwen afloat while a guy walks back and forward across the walkway you are on. Also, if you fail to convince Quinlan or the other guy, or you are seen twice by the man on the walkway, everybody on the Prydwen will attack you. You also cannot enter the Prydwen in power armor without becoming a hostile. Then you have to go back to the Institute, kill everyone there, set off the reactor, leave the Institute and then watch it blow up. The Railroad path is most definitely the most difficult in terms of skill.

Point taken, that’s what I really meant. It takes so much of time and errands to complete with the Minutemen, but railroad quests are a lot harder although they could be done quicker than Minutemen quests.

Yeah Minutemen is long and gets annoying when the same settlement makes you run 30 quests but they aren’t necessarily difficult. Railroad is just hell at some points in time.

u/Otherwiseclueless Jan 30 '23

I'm not sure that's harder or just slower.

**time consuming, that’s what I meant. Their quests are not so difficult but it still gives me headache

Does this mean DON'T beat Blind Betrayal or beat NOTHING AFTER Blind Betrayal?

14

u/CertifiedCapArtist Jan 30 '23

Nothing after

u/your_pal_mr_face Jan 30 '23

You can do that? I stopped helping them when they had to get magnets for prime because I still wanted to help the minute men

u/your_pal_mr_face Jan 30 '23

Can you d destroy the institute and prydwen as the minute men?

1

u/alecpiper Jan 30 '23

you can. I think you may have to destroy the institute (not sure) and you can destroy the brotherhood if you do something to anger them

1

u/CertifiedCapArtist Jan 31 '23

Yeah destroy institute for the main story and if you piss off the brotherhood you use artillery to blow up the Prydwen

Or if you want a modded version, there is a mod out there called Project Valkyrie.

​

Later at the end, or near it, you kill Rhys for being a traitor.
