I agree that internal consistency does matter. No argument there. However, you are over reacting. While you personally may find it hard to roleplay in Bethesda game, show me a game where you can actually roleplay in modern gaming. All of them suffer the same problems. Bethesda is more showy of...

Needless death in my opinion, but ok. Its actually makes the Institute properly grey faction, which is good. And I dont see, no matter how hard I look, why everybody loves to hate on Fallout 4 writing. Not amazing, not [give me a horribly written game](id say Call of Duty Ghosts for exampe)

Its a horrible excuse, but how about its a game and is meant to be enjoyed? Thats the problem so many people here have, you focus on stuff which doesnt matter. 'Nuff said. And I dislike aspects of Fallout 4 and Fallout 3; cabots house, kid in a fridge, dialogue, t-60(although admittedly its...

Perhaps. How did they try to Commonwealth Provisional Government, from what I remember it was infiltrated by a synth on their very first meeting. How did replacing the patron at Warwick farm actually help anything? Replace the Bob Sutton guy, or have a trader join the farm. Its a father with...

No. They tried with FEV. Failed. They tried with synth Gen 1. Success. Gen 2. Success. Why wouldnt you try to go further when you can? You are a scientist. If you can do something, why wont you? Liam Bennet illustrated this point. He tried rescuing the synths at first for the lolz of it. With...

I mean, the institute came of to me as the corrupted glimmer of hope for humanity, and obviously the future is their goal. While those are goals, they are very short term. What are their long term goas? Why do they replace some people? How can everybody be on board with it? I hoped by becoming...

But why would scientists and genius, akin to Robert House who came from CIT, not educate their children? Why preserved in a shelter unlike anything the world has seen not study and actually promote scientific excelllence. The institute after all is a educationa facility as evident by some NPC...

Big MT anyone? Teleportation? Y-17 trauma override harness? Toaster AI among others? What did Institute invent that is magic? Teleportation? Synths? Cybernetics? Cold Fusion? And he wins because i like him more is not an argument.

Not about the text but the way the text is presented. Please, provide an example, as I honestly dont remember that being the case, unless you refer to: "point at an item in inventory, or wherever, and it says hey its an object X". There is another school of story telling and lore, most...

Who cares?! Also, why would you leave the town where you know its safe? Capital Wasteland is dangerous and Megaton is safe. Yes there is a (most likely Vault Tec) bomb, and my personal theory is that it was a ruse to get the people of Springvale and its surrounding into the Vault before the war...

The bottom line, is that the pre-1995 games didnt have the capacity to try and recreate a realistic world. While you could add text and object it would always come down into some form of codex, which isnt how real life is. We do not have a codex unless we use wikipedia(duh!). What Bethesda did...

Perhaps. I will also give Mass Effect 3 that it does what Bioware does best - character moments. But just be weary not to be blind to its flaws because of the good moments. The original ending is horrible and worse than Fallout 4, sorry thats the truth. Its also non sensical. Beginning can be...

No wrong. Mass Effect always been a better RPG than Bethesda Fallout games. However dont you dare, say that Mass Effect 3 keeps the universe coherent. It destroyed it with more retcons than Fallout 4 ever did or will be able to. I could probably write you an essay about how horrible the plot...

Just finished Vault 85 questline, and got to say that it was a very well written quest.

Everybody went through radiation screening and came off empty, I guess, as per beginning of the game. For all we know what we saw in the beginning was just a shockwave, with radiation to come up. As stupid as I found it personally. But what I actually meant is, you are an institute scientist...

The institute wouldnt know that at the time now, would they? Also some people mention, why would they not go to another Vault. Because I think they realise that most of other Vaults are horrific places where not only they will most probably not find an untainted DNA, but find it corrupted or...

You become a general with one pretty incompetent soldier in your army, who makes you responsible for something you shouldnt be. Whether its general of Minuteman or Princess of Snowflakes, it doesnt really matter, still shit luck.

Um, um.. guys you do realize that Death Star had a convenient hole leading straight to its reactor for anyone to blow up, Ethan in Heavy Rain woke up with incriminating evidence every single time even though he was innocent, in zombie games when you get bit you are fine but everybody else turns...

Probably, hopefully not though. At least not Ronto, I have hopes that its at the very least a large city.

That said, we are aware of occasional places which are at the very least civilized; Ronto, Abbey of the Road, Broken Banks. We also know there is a mining town in Montana, and where there is one there should be more. Furthermore If the game is not taking place somewhere, why would they mention...
