Forum:Broken Steel Ending Much Less Than Expected...

I have to be honest I wasn't expecting much from the brotherhood after I defeated the Enclave. After wandering the wastes a bit, and seeing all the Brotherhood PALADINS my anger started to seep in. I Destroyed the enclave with little to no help from the BoS. I started the purifier and after only a few months, managed to learn more about the super mutant origins than Lyons could in 20 years. I have complete control over the Wasteland and my title is BoS knight. You would think that after destroying the Enclave, Lyons would AT THE VERY LEAST promote you to Sentinel. Does he really think that the worthless paladins in D.C. are better than you? Two weeks after starting the purifier, Lyons Promotes you to a knight. What else can you do for another promotion. When saw the crawler being destroyed by the onslaught of missiles I unleashed, I was expecting the best quest reward possible, even if it meant a meaningless title. Then I was thinking about how powerful my character really was and the recognition that is deserved. When the Vertebird landed and Lyons stepped forth to congratulate you, I had an instant flashback the the Shivering Isles when Haskil named you the new Daedric god of Madness. I was like, "Oh shit my guy is gunna be the new leader of the BoS!" You can imagine what a boner killer it was to witness what Lyons actually did. THATS ALL I EVER WANTED, ELDER LYONS TO TELL ME WHAT A GOOD JOB I DID. Really? I don't even get to become Paladin, Sentinel, Scribe, Elder, Supreme Overlord Champion, God? I don't even get access the the secret armory. What did you guys think of this? Kwayzar 19:51, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

Totally fucking agree. Fat Man Spoon 19:54, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

Yep. He should have given you a Human sized Liberty Prime as a companion to use!!!!!!!

After realizing(?) that I don't get shit by destroying the crawler with my test character, I decided to blow up the citadel, at least I killed those traitors and got a new gun. But dude, even though Lyon's Pride are "saint-ified" in F3, remember that they once were assholes too, and still in a complex manner still is. Gabriel Cortez 20:19, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

But you killed them. Good. Can't wait for my second character to blow Sarah's head off. Fat Man Spoon 20:22, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

Lol, I completely agree with everyone. When i get FO3(GOTY Edition)I will definately blow up the citadel.

Yeah All you seemed to do was become a Knight,Kill everything and get a pat on the back.I just wanted to shoot Lyon's in the face with A Terrible Shotgun.He would have fucking Deserved it.--ZeroPro 05:40, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

Agreed. Philosophically you shouldn't expect a physical "reward" in terms of gear or money for being a good guy (otherwise you're really just a mercenary.) However it does puzzle me that I can have Star Paladin Cross as a follower while she technically outranks me. I think a worthy alternative would have been to give a good karma player the option of becoming either a Paladin or a Scribe after destroying the Base Crawler. A neutral player could defect and join the Outcasts. And FFS, a bad karma player really should have had the option to join the Enclave. Surely that wouldn't be too hard to implement. It would just be a matter of tagging the group ownership to the player. ~ The Unsigned One, 7 July 2009

One reason I like Fallout over Fallout 3 cuz, you get freedom. You can join the mutants, and you get endings that show what you did, and what it affected in the world... Onipix 21:29, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
