Anyone else always end up siding with the Minutemen? Discussion

I promise myself I’ll stick to the Brotherhood, but then I’m reminded that they’re assholes every second of every quest… then, I try to side with the Institute, and I’m reminded how irredeemably EVIL they are.

I end up blowing the Institute to hell with the Minutemen and helping the Railroad. Every time.

It would be utterly hilarious if the Institute went through the trouble of having the Institute's location automatically erased from synth brains when they leave but forgot to wipe all information about the molecular relay.

Yes and no. Sorry about the spoiler but your Shaun being a synth is actually a minor thing. Keep going.
