So.. Dogmeat hasn't been following me around for the last hour or so.
Another wanderer came up to it and convinced it to follow him with one dialogue choice.

From what I understand there are two endings depending on your final choice, but I could be wrong.
There is.
You mean the son, correct? Can someone confirm once and for all that the player character is not revealed to be an android at any point in the story? Sorry if this is a stupid question, I've just seen a lot of people on other threads misinterpret some spoilery sentences here and there and construe some wild ideas.
Fairfax? You seem to have a unique and reliable knowledge of the game and it's story; can you confirm?
Ok, I'm trying to avoid spoilers, but I didn't want to ask this in any of the other threads, and I'm not reading any other posts in this thread. I'm afraid I might have been spoiled. So I'll ask this here. If you anyone could answer this without spoiling anything else, I would appreciate it.
If it is I'm pretty pissed I read it in the Bob Ross Twitch chat. I should have known better, I suppose.
Is it true that your son is "evil"? Like is he the main antagonist? Does anyone know when this is revealed? Is it an end game thing?

Haven't read the thread for fear of spoilers but don't want to clog up the other one with this question. For those of you who know about the main quest, is a lot of it or important parts based around your spouse and or child, if someone could PM a yes or not answer this would be useful for I build my character, cheers
To be honest, it seems like the smart thing to do if you don't want to be spoiled is just try to dismiss it and walk away from it. If I didn't consistently answer this way, then it'd be clear what the answer was when it was a "no". So that's my advice if you don't want to be spoiled.
If you just have to know, then
I'm sorry to say that yes, what you described is indeed what I understand to be the end revelation from the others in this thread.
Thanks for the reply! I was originally just going to do what you had in the first part of your post, but I didn't want this one bit of information nagging me throughout the entire game.

So long as they don't bother with an entire DLC for these guys again.

I stupidly clicked this thread last night and saw what looks to be the ending choice. Stupid, stupid me.
I hope it's not the real ending.

Do towns and caravans actually function as we were told? X3 was amazing in this department, with an actual, working economy where you could build your own stations and start a trading empire.

I'm so excited to explore places that I see on a daily basis in reality. So far I've seen Coply, Fenway, bits of Charlestown in game. I know Cambridge is in there, but I haven't seen anything recognizable so far. Is Harvard sq in game? My hype is way in check after mgsv though...

Do you think knowing the ending ruins the game?
I don't think so, because the game has so much that the main quest is a small part of it. I for one am looking for someone who knows for sure to tell me whether or not the player character is an android in the end. People are saying all kinds of things and I just want to know so that I don't spend 100 hours building my character, only to learn that I'm not even playing the character that I wanted to build, but rather an android copy of them.

Not for me at least. If nothing else it's made me look forward to the main story more. If Bethesda's going to suck at writing, I'd rather the result be something fun and stupid like this than that 20 minute exposition dump from the dragon in Skyrim.

Why do people think that these companies spent millions of dollars just to fuck with a few fans online?

Good points
I accidentally spoiled myself as I said, and it's been bugging the hell out of me since.

HAHAHA! How many times have you entered this thread? Read carefully, man!
LMAO! This is the dumbest shit that I have ever read. I can't wait for the rest of GAF to see this.
(spoilered, in case some more fools enter this thread by mistake).
I was gonna make a post but it would have been exactly this, so I'm just quoting you
This is still my least favorite thing about what Bethesda did with Fallout lore. They made aliens canon.

What happens if you choose the female, did something changes for the final boss ?

They didn't even make the right ones canon.
Wanamingo. They showed up in a random encounter for me in FO2 once with a crashed alien ship and were even called aliens when examined.
It makes perfect sense. Since when have Theme Parks been about meaningful dialogue?

¯\_(ツ
_/¯ It requires Wildwasteland perk, but ALLLIENS MANVoice actor are not cheap, pal
Wanamingo's are canon (they are even mentioned in New Vegas), but they are not aliens. They were just called 'aliens' because the locals thought they looked alien-esque. They were the result of government experiments.
Actual aliens were also in FO1 and 2 but only as non-canon easter eggs that had a small chance of showing up if your luck was 8 or more (and in New Vegas with the Wild Wasteland perk).

Lol
Wtf
Bethesda come on!!
I just can't
At least in new vegas I have billions of options with Ulysses and the Lanius
Sigh
Ulysses showcases one of the best pieces of writing in gaming IMO. Not only is his writing in Lonesome Road masterful, but he's also build up amazingly. Every single piece of DLC preceding Lonesome Road mentioned Ulysses in one way or another (Joshua Graham saying how he expected a different courier upon your first meeting with him, the ending slides of Dead Money mentioning the battle of The Divide, finding his journal in Old World Blues). Before ever meeting Ulysses I was already aware of who he was, where he came from and what his goals were (kind of).
It was unlike anything I've ever seen in games.

Yeah ;_; reading them and choosing different options
It was awesome to see how they react ... Fallout RPG dialogue at its finest Obsidian nailed that aspect

Ooh, bonus if you can kill Shaun and still blow up Boston!
...well, that is the most psychopathic sentence I've ever typed.
I freakin' love New Vegas so much, and you explained one of the reasons why beautifully. There's so much pay-off throughout the main game and the DLC.
And we go from New Vegas to this.... you know a while back we had a thread in which the question was "what is your favorite lore in gaming?" or something along the lines of that. A lot of people answered Fallout, and I really wonder how the feel about the future of the franchise being in the hand of some of the worst writers in mainstream RPGs. I feel like CDPR or Obsidian could do this franchise justice, heck I would even take Bioware at this point. Anyone but Bethesda.
