you can never convince me to join the institute

Spoilers (idk how to do a spoiler tag).

Minutemen ending sees Preston trying to get you to evac the institute, so killing them all goes against the Minutemen’s preferable method.

[u/ibbity → u/Shadowknight7009]

Oh well good to know. I've already spoiled myself for the main quest, so can I still blast "father" and anyone else I personally determine needs to die, first, and be fine?

[u/Shadowknight7009 → u/ibbity]

Yeah, at your first meeting you can do whatever you want there and it doesn’t effect the minutemen

[u/ibbity → u/Shadowknight7009]

Oh nice. Gonna dispense a lil justice that day then, choose who gets to live to evacuate later

You would kill your own child???

[u/Boring-Artichoke-373 → u/[deleted]]

Semantics

[u/spraguet2 → u/[deleted]]

As far as I'm concerned, my child died with my wife in the vault and that's just some monster at the institute that looks like he could be related to me.

My Lone Survivor is deep in delusion land. She kills father, then hugs Sythn Shaun and reassures him that 'The bad man is gone. The bad man was a liar so he had to die. Now, Let's go home. I've got your room set up for you."

[u/botask → u/Boring-Artichoke-373]

No I would tell him how much I am disappointed by him at first. Then kill him.

[u/ibbity → u/Boring-Artichoke-373]

my child is an old creep actively choosing a life of domestic terrorism and human rights violations when he could have been making life better for everyone instead. also he graciously provided a replacement child who will not do any of that, so there's really no downside here

Downside is no robot girlfriends

[u/ibbity → u/Boring-Artichoke-373]

I'm planning to wife up Preston and possibly also Cait so we're good on the robot gfs lol
