Dissapointed

So I tried to play it as close to Mr.House as possible because I thought that was the right way. But after seeing the credits I feel like a creep beating up the NCR.. and worse the Brotherhood.

I am disappointed too about how you cant ally with the BoS when your siding with Mr. House. You should be given the option to ally with them if you have the rep like your given the option to ally with them in the NCR quest line For The Republic 2. There could also be a speech check when Mr. House gives you the quest to convince him to ally with the BoS, something like the extra man power and technology could be of some use in the future or something. I am really surprised at how the BoS get hammered in this game and don't have much role like they did in the last one but I guess its all about the location. I was expecting them to be a little more widespread then just one location underground basically. I mean these guys are in power armor suits and big energy weapons and yet the fiends have more of a footprint in the land than the BoS. I know the lockdown could explain some of that but once its lifted, they should start appearing around different parts of the land and gradually get more widespread with camps and stuff like the NCR. Maybe the game developers are saving some of this type of stuff for the DLC additions to the game or something, at least I hope.

Doesn't make sense to me to have the BoS as allies if you go any route at all.

Even by allying them with NCR, they end up taking all the power armor.

What would they want if you sided with House, or went Independent? They'd want to have a look at those robots, now wouldn't they?

to be honest, there really should have been the option to subjugate the entire brotherhood because of your superior military power.. i mean, seriously. 15 guys in power armor versus hundreds of securitrons mk2?

anyway... the inability to utilize the broterhood in houses storyline feels completely invalid. if anything, mr. house would be very open to abusing the trust of the brotherhood.

so you wanna check out my robots huh? sure, after you fight for me at the hoover dam. and i promise i won't kill the survivors.... nope, i certainly won't be doing that.

Never thought of it that way.

Too bad we can't do that.

Tbh the NCR deserve to be wiped out, but I never liked killing the BoS. Good loot, though.
