What if You Finish the Game With the Minutemen and Then Rescue Paladin Danse?

  • Have you ever wondered what would happen if you completed the game on the side of the Minutemen and then came to rescue Paladin Danse from the ghouls in the Cambridge Police Station in Fallout 4? I decided to test this, so I started completing quests for the Minutemen, including the very last quest where you have to explode the Institute. So, I did just that, infiltrated the Institute, placed explosives in the reactor, and blew up the location from a safe distance. Then, I went to rescue Paladin Danse, killed all the ghouls, and initiated a conversation with him. Then I heard these words from him.

    The Minute Men are a neutral gang so you can pretty much be on the side of the Brotherhood and get the full rank while still hanging out with a Minuteman and destroying the Institute and yes you can even save Paladin Danse as well even with as a side of the Minutemen again they are a neutral gang so they don't really care

      I mean if you complete his quest line the cannon way, he ends up leaving/kicked out of the brotherhood.
      The sole survivor is also annexed from the brotherhood in the cannon completion leaving the minutemen as the last “good” choice, so Danse theoretically does support the minutemen after his exile.
      So long as the sole survivor doesn’t side with the institute that is. I’m not sure if the institute ending is canonized or not, but I know for a fact the brotherhood ending is not.

      ​@@user-ig8vm1ns4tI didn't. Bethesda actually makes sure you don't. You actually have to ACTIVELY avoid quests in order to not keep the story/side quests going. Before you even get into Cambridge (on the way to Diamond City, which is a core part of the story and game), the distress signal is picked up and a quest starts. If you ignore that and go near the College Square, you'll hear a battle going on between Danse and the ferals. If you somehow ignore that, and do the main story past Kellogg, you'll see the big-ass blimp called the Prydwen announce their presence in your face. If you ignore THAT, you'll still be given a quest to investigate the ship, which discovers the airport. There's zero excuse to not find any of the factions, not discover all marked locations (if not in Survival, they're marked as undiscovered from a mile away), or finish the story.
      You'd actually have to have good knowledge of the game and the story in order to actively avoid it and not be caught up in it, like players who have had multiple characters, have done the story and side quests multiple times, and know what to do to avoid them and play a different way.
      Simply put, if you miss out on the game's core mechanics and story, you shouldn't be playing video games at all with the sheer lack of intelligence.

      Never thought of that, if it is the case, Danse would be taken right after the ArcJet mission.
      The institute is watching you, from the moment you thaw out.
      Everyone else you become friends with, are too well known, or not possible to snatch.
      Cait is known by all the Raiders, Nick is the famous detective, Piper is the only reporter, Deacon is a ghost, Curie is hidden, McCready is the best mercenary, Strong is a super mutant, Hancock is a ghoul, Preston is beloved,
      My theory is Dogmeat isn't a real dog, his appearance is a German Shepherd, if he was a real dog, we would see more in the Commonwealth, known pre war breed, trusted by humans.
      Ideal choice to make a spy, but someone who could interact with you properly, guide you to a decision, Danse the nobody in the BoS is the perfect person to replace.

    the MM are the only side where you can keep the other factions alive (well not the Institute, since yeah only if you side with them do they survive) but the MM have 2 endings depending on how far you go with the other factions. (I only went as far with the RR to get Ballistic Weave, and the BH until I got PA from them and did one settlement mission for the guy selling stuff on the Airship, But not the mission from Maxxum. But for Battle of Bunker Hill told everyone about it, also had a glitch where Garvey wouldn't leave I had Aida set as follower and he was still there happened because of the "Taking the Castle" mission, probably because I destoryed the eggs before they told me to IDK, But not until sometime after finished Far Harbor & Nuka World did he stop so again IDK what happened.) But somehow I ended up with the three Factions Peaceful with each other, so the "Super Happy Ending". (there are certain flags with the RR & BH missions that trigger them being aggressive to the other factions, but not sure how far down each you can go without triggering it. But I didn't so at least that far.)

Plus, the Railroad have been planning this for years, didnt wanna take that victory from them lol.
    It's also been years so I dont quite know if i HAD to destroy the Prydwen, but I did. The Brotherhood have became insane since what i remember them being in Fallout 3, couldn't have them around trying to clear all friendly Synths and Ghouls.
    In a perfect world, I would've joined The Institute and stopped the kidnapping of others. They're too important to be destroyed, but the creation of Synths and swapping humans out for them is a big no no and would be stopped immediately. Thus brining most factions together besides The Brotherhood. They would then need to decide if they'll behave and be rational, or an enemy of the entire commonwealth.

    For anyone wondering, after obtaining paladin, then sentinel rank, if you proceed to become enemies with the BOS, YOU WILL NOT LOSE your paladin/Sentinel PowerArmor paints and can still apply them on t60 models afterwards.
    Also with the minutemen, you can progress with their quest after finishing with the BOS, take the castle, obtain the Artillery cannon, make settlements have +10 settler's, then use the nukaworld DLC to extort these settlements, leave the minutemen, piss off preston, and now you have settlements that feel like settlements, not 1-3 people camps.
    I keep 4 settlements for my own foreward operating base(s) to provide artillery over the map.
    If you proceed to do this, just abandon your Boston Airport settlement as you probably already dont use it, and Liberty Prime will keep 1 shotting you with nukes (he cant die). So just avoid the Airport and you're good.
    *Of course you'll lose the ability to use vertibirds from the BOS, and the ability to call in minutemen troops with flares* (if you finished with BOS, railroad is presumably destroyed so no vertibirds through them, either)
