the institute is wack because of, well, i'm not getting accused of spoiling the game again
minutemen suck because a.) they don't have anything of value b.) they give you 100000 locations to settle with no materials to settle them with.
the railroad sucks because not only are they poor, they ask you, straight up, if you would risk your life for a robot. i was like "nah" the first time, and they refused to even give me missions LMAO
the Brotherhood is trash because they ARE basically racist. not that my heart bleeds for ghouls and super mutants, per se, it just rubs me the wrong way, real ignorant white boy military style to me.
so i've just been jumping on for 20-30 minutes every other week to do side quests and try to finish all the ones i can without picking a faction. which is boring.
its too simple for replay.
Nowhere near the disappointment of GTAV, because this game was actually fun. I had been itching to play new vegas since i sold my 360, and it scratched the itch, but it's so opposite of what made new vegas amazing.
for the 1000th time, i'm waiting for mods. interested to see how deep the modding can change the game.
