Get lost Preston. You’re on your own.
>>738961620It's interesting that Preston takes gifts from Wastelanders for MY work, but the instant I suggest he take over as General of the Minutemen, his ass is out the door.
was there any explanation as to why they have a synth version of your son as a child?
>>738962217so you could walk in and think its your son before the reveal that the old guy is.
>>738962217Yes, for scientific shits and giggles. Father wanted to use the robot child to see if the Boston Wasteland would destroy the Sole Survivor or would they persevere, save thier son, and continue to be a morally understanding person despite everything thrown at them.
>>738961620it makes absolutely no fucking sense to me that the protag could be a synth given what we know of how they work and the fact that the game starts before the war
>>738962669To be fair, I always assumed DiMA was just fucking with you about the Synth thing because he's a robot sociopath.
>>738962669the issues that would come with the protag being a synth are small compared to the issues it would fix
>>738962971>the issues that would come with the protag being a synth are small compared to the issues it would fix>fixlike what?
General Ward knows what we lost firsthand, he's our best chance at victory.
>>738961620>96gbNO! no no no no. I still cant get over that redundant widescreen update that added 50gb. Fuck you fallout
>>738961620Man I kekebu's Preston has been so ingrained in my head for a decade now that I forget Preston doesn't actually have a moustache. He looks so much cooler.
>>738961620I visited every location in Fallout 4 and did every side quest before rescuing Preston
>>738961620I've never played 4. How many mods do I need to install to make it fun? If it's a big pain in the ass I won't bother
>>738962217It's a gift father gives you after he dies so you aren't lonely and sad

>>738961620Please don't bully Garvey. It's not his fault people attack settlements. He just wants to help. Isn't that what the Minute Men were supposed to be all about?
>>738966327For vanilla+, not that many actually. After your first playthrough, there's a lot of quest mods that change the main story to make it fun. Nowadays I only play it for the porn though.
>>738966437>Windows 10 LTSC isn't supported Welp, another run of NV it is then
>>738966382Why though? He believes synths are not alive and sentient, why would a mindless robot be a good gift?
>>738967269It's the best equivalent of a son/family he can give you, it's not human but it can still provide you some comfort
>>738967269He sticks with the Institute out of responsibility. He spent a lifetime directing it based on it's ideals and attitudes.Him instantly launching an assault after expelling you is to escalate into the clash of your ideologies in practice since A: it's the ultimate test in the whole experiment and B: he is extremely short on time being on his literal deathbed by the time you get to him again.He sends the kid as a gift because he sees the validity in how you see things and with the conflict over he is free to express personal feelings. This is an entirely alien concept for current liberals so no need to try wrapping your brain rotted heads around it.
>>738966382>I have future AIDS, here's an underage sex doll of me, bye dad!
>>738961620I like the mod that puts him in jail.
>>738966479If he wants to help so much, why doesn't he get off his ass and take charge? Why is he so utterly dependent on the player?
>>738961620>go and do the content of a dlc you paid money for>he hates you now>playthrough ruined if you sided with minutemen (immersion wise)
>>738965175Vanilla Preston makes 0 sense he's way too clean and pristine looking that probably contributed to his memes for sure nobody would take him seriously with a baby face like that
