      @karawithgun8148 7 років тому +16

      Sharif Alkorek In my opinion, the NCR is too aggressive in their expansion. If they want you to join, they're going to get you to join whether you like it or not. They only ask nicely in the beginning. Whereas The Minutemen will ask you to join and if you say no, they won't force you to join or destroy you. And there's a decent amount of corruption in the NCR as well. I mean they're a better option than The Legion or the Brotherhood or raiders but I think the Minutemen are more about protecting and providing for the people of the Commonwealth and helping everyone not just themselves.
      This is just my opinion of course.

    I think part of the reason he's so despised by fans can be blamed on Bethesda limiting the dialogue to four choices. If you had to specifically ask him if he had a quest available rather than it always happening when you talk to him, he'd be much less annoying.
    It'd also have helped if once you have retaken the castle and assigned someone to radio freedom he wouldn't give you quests anymore, since you can just listen to the radio. You shouldn't need to talk to him to complete them at that point either.

      I also see the radiant quests as a way to get more scrap in my survival playthrough. See I don't care about the fact I'm a general of the MM and I technically shouldn't be doing all the missions (which is why I Spawn a bunch of MM around me when I approach a settlement and again when I get to the mission location in question.
      People are so impatient it boggles my mind. The radiant quests may be constant but that's the world you're in, constantly in danger.
      And a lot of people say well why can't I send others to do the missions? And yeah it's a failure of Bethesda to not include a way to order squads to locations. But a couple mods I've seen are adding that very thing. Maybe Bethesda will heed our calls for improvement but in the mean time. I'll be fighting on the front lines with the rest of my MM.

    • @Toni-lo9ms
      @Toni-lo9ms 7 років тому +26

      Ya Boy Toy! The mod "we are the minutemen" will limit the number and timing of Preston's radiant quests as well as improve the faction in general making it a veritable army (with enough settlements and player levels anyway) that could reasonably take on the Brotherhood (if hostile), the Institute, or any other threat to the Commonwealth. Now that I've experienced it I wouldn't do a Minuteman playthrough without it.

    • @vahlen5281
      @vahlen5281 7 років тому +77

      They should have added a mission to retake Quincy with the Minutemen as a personal quest for Preston after you reestablished the Castle and got a certain affinity rank with him. Much like the quest where you visit Vault 95 with Cate and can help her to get clean. As I said, wasted potential.

      Knowing Preston, he would have gone out in a blaze of glory while his charges escaped. Probably would have almost wiped out the raiders, too, only to fall to the Deathclaw, but not without getting his fair licks in.
      Preston lead 20 people, on foot, through Ghouls, Super Mutants, Raiders, Gunners, Synths, and a whole host of wasteland wildlife to several places, while battling his mental demons, before the Sole Survivor showed up on the same day he did to Concord. He is a bad ass, and if everyone is wrong about the Vault 75 dwellers formed either the Gunners or the Minutemen, then Preston is definitely one of their kids or grandkids

      No Preston is the kind who actually go help people instead of complains. The only reason made you think otherwise is the Fallout 4 first person gameplay mechanics. That the only way you witness him in action is leading by you, which in lore perspective, he will do it anyway, with or without sole survivors help. And the game-maker didn't put much effort to make the world running realistically enough, that you can encounter him in action, or at least heard it from ways like settler's dialog.

      I don't like him. He's too black and white for me. If you don't dedicate yourself to the minutemen. In his mind you are a selfish prick. if you support the minutemen he literally worships the ground you walk on. Also he hates the Brotherhood of Steel again this because they don't wait on tne settlers hand and foot.
      Not everyone has time to pick everyone's fruit or dig there latrines. He's such an unbearable prig that you feel compelled to join nuka world just to muck with Presto.

      @@kalen2465 ,,He's too black ..." 😧 ,,... and white" 🤔 Okay, that's fair. Yes, he is really onedimensional and predictable. His group = good, everybody else = bad. Helping people = good, encouragement to defend themselves = not even considered. I personally am a fan of natural selection, and if the Minutemen just help everyone, there is no need to improve your situation by yourself. In my playthrough, I imagine some sort of feudal system, where settlers are literal peasants and minutemen are like knights or something (from a society perspective, not the aesthetics of course). They get ressources from the peasants and have to defend them in exchange. That's a fair trade. But Preston does not talk about such stuff. He weakens the population by making it relying on the Minutemen. There is no foundation to his worldview. He's just a good guy without any deeper thoughts. He is just empty. That's usually the kind of people I want to kill (in games).

    • @metanightmare4454
      @metanightmare4454 2 роки тому +9

      @@henryneubert7798 To be fair, he doesn't ever really say anything like "everybody else = bad." That's more the Brotherhood's game. He's obviously disappointed if people don't want to join his fight, but the same can be said for most anyone else. He doesn't hate them for it and he definitely wouldn't hurt anyone who isn't actively doing something that warrants it. He also harbors no real malice towards the Railroad or other people who generally seek to do good. Even when you destroy the Institute, he wants you to save as many non-combatants as possible, even though, aside from the children, they all played some part in the Institute's crimes, many of them probably hold the Institute's sociopathic philosophy, and some may even act on it and hurt more people in the future. He wants to save them anyway because he believes in the inherent value of life, and he's the only one of the four main faction leaders who thinks that way.
      Having said all that, he IS pretty much a Superman/Captain America-style boy scout and I can see how that could get dull. He's pretty much the direct opposite of X6-88, who is even more boring because on top of being at least as immoral as Preston is moral, he is deliberately designed to have almost no personality to speak of. Preston is really straight-laced and uptight and it can definitely be irritating if you are anything short of a lawful good saint.
      Personally, I also tend to believe in natural selection. If some idiot decides he wants to climb in the tiger enclosure at the zoo for a TikTok video, he deserves to be mauled. Don't risk the lives of people who are actually worth a damn trying to save him, but I digress. Honestly, I wouldn't run with Preston myself outside of a Minutemen-focused build. I'd be more likely to choose Nick or Curie if I was feeling noble. I'd pick Macready, Cait, or Hancock if I just want to mind my own business. And I'd go for either Strong or Cait if I just want to be an asshole without the fun police breathing down my neck. X6-88, Danse, and Deacon to a lesser extent are all like Preston in that they're pretty tightly tethered to their factions, so they would mostly be used for playthroughs where I go all in on their respective teams.

    • @henryneubert7798
      @henryneubert7798 2 роки тому

      @@metanightmare4454 Yes, you are right. ,,Everybody else = bad" was a wrong statement. But everything else keeps beeing valid. And yes, there are companions representing the other factions and fitting their ideology, but none of them is so naive and weak-minded. Deacon is even more annoying as Preston in my opinion, because he is lying in dialogues and screams goovy lines towards the enemy, but at least he is not as incompetent as Preston. I can dismiss and ignore Deacon, but Preston gives me random quests even when i'm the general (yes, i can ignore the quests, but he puts junk into my quest journal that i want to keep clean). There are foot soldiers for that. Danse is a fanatic, but at least he has some development and some foundations to his worldview. The brotherhood is fascist, but their dogma makes at least some sense, and so it makes sense for Danse to believe in his faction. The institute companion is, as you mentioned, the opposite of Preston, but just as Deacon, he is not as weak and naive, and because he is not annoying i can tolerate him more. To be honest, i don't like any of the vanilly companions to a degree that i would want to travel with them constantly, maybe except Piper and Valentine, but thy are too fragile to make it believable that they would survive in my heavily modded wasteland. I use the unlimited companion framework and have Nate and Ellen as modded companions around. Neither of them annoys me with ideologies, and both are strong and tough enough to make travelling around the wasteland believable. Maybe my point isn't that clear, i simply have problems discussing things in english because it's not my first language. Sorry for that.

    Prestons affinity dialogues are probably the hardest hitting for me. The first time I did a playthrough with him as my companion, he stopped me not long after we finished retaking the castle, I was exploring, walking along the walls, and he just dropped the proverbial bomb.
    Telling me that if it wasn't for the sole survivor stopping in Concord, saving him and the rest of the survivors.
    Then most of all sticking around, helping him rebuild, that he was just gonna give up. What hit me the hardest is that he didn't want to kill himself. He just wanted to stop going forward, give up, and just lay down to let the waste take him.
    That will always rock me to my core because I've been in the exact same state of mind before. That made Preston so much more human in my eyes and because of that he's become a staple companion in most every playthrough for me.

    I don't need the innocent people to die, because they use pipe rifles and double barrel shotguns.
    I love them but they aren't strong enough without the Buffed Minutemen Mod, but I want them weak. That's what they are, farmers not soldiers.
    I'm level 102, I still use the flare gun and artillery. Not for much help, but I want to show the power of the Minutemen. All my settlements are happy, and my people there are strong. Because of the Minutemen, the Commonwealth is safe, and so is Garvey.

    I had never heard the dialogue exchange from around 18:00 and I actually think it's made me like Preston all that much more. The way he passionately refused to bend over for the Sole Survivor was uncanny. In a game where it would be easy to play god, it's the little stuff like this that sucks you right back into this world and let's you know that these characters have real thoughts and feelings that cannot be walked over. Good job Bethesda.

    • @TheCallofCreepyPasta
      @TheCallofCreepyPasta 7 років тому +9

      Also, I'm a straight male who roleplays myself as the Sole Survivor with my character, so I'd also never heard the romance dialogue and it melted my heart. The way he kept his feelings from her in order not to make her feel rushed or outright ruin her grieving process is truly selfless. That takes a special kind of care to put her completely ahead of himself, despite his greatest desires and that's what makes Preston a great character.

      At the same time they are not afraid to drive an opposing force out of a place they deem tactically important. Like the Castle. I would not have been surprised if Preston would have said something along the lines of needing to remove the raiders from nuka world because they would pose too great a threat. Not to mention the traders which are being enslaved, he surely does not like that either. If caught wind of that, it would have been another settlement to clear.
      I also don't see how the Brotherhood would not have wanted to infiltrate the place given how they like to force themselves on places.
