[@nooneinparticular5273]

I gotta say, part of Fallout 4 almost feels like a social experiment. Like "How much can we make people care about a character, solely by telling them he is their son?" Like Shaun never shows any redeeming traits. He's a raging supremecist, he thinks the people on the surface are vile, reprobate mutants. The only reason he likes you is that you're his parent. The Institute as a whole has no real redeeming traits either. Like, the people there are nearly all a bunch of boring nerds who resent you. It's an evil faction, but evil factions usually work cause they are cool. They're all decked out in black, jaggedy, edgy armor with big guns. The Enclave, as an example. But The Institute are a bunch of pampered nerds in lab coats hoarding tech and kidnapping people. They have almost no reason to support them at all, aside from the fact that Shaun leads them. So if you hear "I'm your son" you may side with him. And I just think that is fascinating. They put so much emphasis on telling you he's your son. He does nothing else to endear himself to you. At one point even referring to your very survival as an experiment in his eyes.

[@voidwalker1434]

Nothing is safe if you poke at it long enough. Sturges didn't try hacking the terminal because the group needed to get out of there ASAP and Sturges poking around trying to hack it would take too long. At Sanctuary, Sturges had as much time as he needed to poke through and decrypt data stolen from the Institute. At least, that's what makes reasonable sense to me.

[@edenarchive4150]

Sturges can crack heavy institute data encryption but he can't hack a computer to open a locked gate? He said himself he's no good with computers. How did he even build a teleportation device in the first place? That always bothered me if you side with the minutemen to build it.

[@ToroMontana]

I'm guessing hacking the encryption takes a lot of time they don't have. They're in the middle of an assault on the Institute.

[@leonardchurch7675]

Well Sturges is a Synth anyway so I guess his programming is a bit buggy.

[@strangelic4234]

He was planted as a sleeper in Quincy. The Institute had known the Gunners were aiming to take over the place and Ayo needed an asset there, as a first step to infiltrate this mercenary group and learn more about their mysterious puppet masters. For security reasons, this first step should not be a gunner but some civilian that had a chance to stay in their perimeter. The intel Ayo had got from the institute crows led him to believe there were three potential targets: Mama Murphy, Marcy Long, and Sturges, because who would kill a sweet old lady, a caring mother, or a useful handyman who knew his way around power armors. After he had more information about them, Ayo decided that Murphy and Long would be the first ones to be killed if he was in the Gunners' place, so he decided to replace Sturges wiith a synth. Synth Sturges' institute memories and knowledge were locked. He truly believed he was just a guy with a wrench and an Atom Cats hairstyle. However, the memory lock was incemental, and the triggers that would open parts of Sturges' talents were bound to events and places that would only make sense if Sturges was indeed captured by the gunners. Ayo, as talented as he was as a strategist, suffered from hybris and thus had failed to see the power of desparation that enabled a lowly ranked minuteman named Preston Garvey to lead a group of survivors out of the Gunner's trap. The synth, without any memories unlocked that would let him stay in Quincy, followed the 18th century cosplayer. When Ayo learned about this, he slightly pursed his lips, which was his greatest emotional outbreak his department had seen up to then, and accepted the loss, believing that "Sturges" would now be in an environment that prevented any trigger from being activated. So "Sturges" ended up in Sanctuary. But synth programming isn't as straightforward as filling the 38kB of a pip boy with code about rocket launchers that drew strength from withdrawal symptoms. It's fuzzy. The subroutines that decided about the memory locks tried to make sense about the input they got from the environment interfaces, which lead to unexpected strokes of genius in our amiable tinkerer. Somebody gave him schematics written with crayons? Unlock analytical subroutines. There is no way Virgil, as a bio scientist, knew the first thing about core teleporter technology, so his drawings should have been useless, but his ham-fisted scribbles unlocked the schematics that had been buried in Sturges' mind itself. When you think about it, this makes more sense than a bio engineer-turned-supermutant reverse-engineering a teleporter. All of this happened without Sturges becoming aware of it, due to Ayo's paranoia and security measures implemented because of it. By all accounts, Sturges still is the big, helpful goof who sometime wonders about his own ingenuity for a second before he is distracted by some seemingly random idea that deals with coaches and eight-foot cats.

Father as a super mutant is a mod just so all of you know. It actually blew my mind because it made perfect sense, why virgil and his scientists were rushed so much during the production of the FEV virus for a cure

[@tydge_6945]

That makes me wonder, if you turn father into a super mumant could you use the cure virgil uses on father and turn him into a human, and would he die after turning back?

[@tree_alone]

@@tydge_6945 when virgil changes back he grew a full head of hair and retains muscle mass and a youthful appearance so I think somehow virgil perfected FEV into more of a Captain America super soldier serum. Wouldn't be surprised if his sex genes got "repaired" into his sterility, regardless, though. That taken into account, like, whats worse, being a little ugly, or being dead? When pure strain without airborne FEV mutations, humans seem to (almost?) always retain their intellect, in fact becoming MORE intelligent. but for those exposed and mutated with the airborne variant, they have a slight resistance to the FEV goop and often end up cognitively stunted.

[@ToroMontana]

@@tydge_6945 Virgil infected himself with a very specific strain of FEV and his cure only worked on that strain. It probably wouldn't work on any other super mutant, might even kill them, trigger some auto-immune disease or do God knows what else.

i like how in vanilla fallout 4 you can literally eat your son.. like, trust me, ive tried takign EVERYTHIGN nailed down (and the clothes on your back) and often during a quest, you cant pickpocket your allies... but the option to cannibalize 'father' is still there... (good god if this wasnt a game thats so fkd)

FALLOUT 4 REALISTIC ENDING: 200 years After the bombs fell some idiots called the Commonwealth Minutemen set off a massive nuclear detonation in the Heart of Boston on par with the pre-war Chernobyl incident, The "Commonwealth" was completely contaminated in the resulting fallout. the already struggling city, was forever doomed to a fate even worse then The Pitt. Rad-storms became much more intense scouring all non-mutated life from the Cradle of American Liberty. And thus the Commonwealth Minutemen failed utterly in their success. They won the war against the Institute, but then doomed Boston in the process.

[@sobek6735]

I did a similar character to this, I had the difficulty set to very hard and tried to survive, killing no one unless it was in self defense. Eventually I needed supplies and would occasionally murder random traders because I had to. I then joined the brotherhood, over the course of their questline I adapted their beliefs, culminating in me executing danse. I then visited the institute where I found father, after he called Nora collateral damage I killed him and escaped. I would later abandon Synth Shaun and not issue the evacuation order. I then abandoned the brotherhood, and headded to nuka world where I took over the park and began a conquest of the commonwealth.

[@ioventrate]

"I guess it all worked out. It was rough, but it worked." Why is that so hilarious? It's an almost borderline psychotic response given you're saying it to someone who's lamenting the indiscriminate destruction and misery you've caused and forcefully injected with FEV. It's beautiful... Sometimes in my playthrough I like to be the most immoral person and then just completely flip flop and try to give caring responses after the damage is done. Maybe there's something wrong to me, but I just find it hilarious. It's like. "Hey, I know I've just murdered all your friends and completely destroyed your life. But chin up, eh?"

[@DaveC2729]

You knooooow, it should be possible to legitimately end Fallout 4 with all factions neutralized; no mods or anything. The only one you wouldn't get to eliminate yourself would be the Minutemen, but you could still do it without ever engaging with them. Steps: 1, Rescue Preston or not; if you do, leave him to rot in Sanctuary. 2, side with the Railroad; eliminate the Brotherhood. 3, Eliminate the Institute and do NOT initiate the evacuation order. 4, return to the Railroad; destroy them when they attack you for butchering the synths. That's it, all factions are gone. Nothing left but the good people of the Commonwealth, and hordes of random monsters waiting to eat them.

First play through, I didn't side with any factions, but after all, we have to pick an ending, so first playing through was BoS endings. Second play through, 6 months after the first one, something about this game kept calling me. Second play through I enjoyed the lore more, I didn't really side with Preston, but I need the settlement system and other settlements that needs my help, Preston will mark it on my map. So I picked the Preston ending. Third play through, just 2 days after the second play through. I decided to be pure evil, Dogmeat and Ada are only true neutral Companions so I kept them and create a Automatron army. I betray everyone, but I use the Settlement Attack Mod and Bounty Hunters mod like Fo3. So the game was truly intense, everyone wants to kill me, I only can trust my Robots army. My goal was to finish the main story and every DLC story, while everyone just attack me in survival mod, worth it.

Imagine the impact of meeting Shaun if you actually had a cutscene or sequence of watching videos and photos of him growing up and sharing his memories together. Less people would have blammed him

There was significant room for writing to be better.

[@Vinnare]

tbh the writing might be pretty bad in this game but at least you get some cool scenes like when you nuke the institute and it makes up for lack of story in some really damn good combat imo

[@majorpwner241]

Best criticism of the writing I've ever seen. I highly agree the Institute alone could have used a full DLC worth of additional content, with much of that being interactions with Shaun and other high-ups. IMO the writing in the game is good, there's just not enough to flesh it out.
