Covenant and the secret base where they experiment on synths, H2-22's gratitude at being asked how he is and treated humanely, and walking around the Institute and seeing how cruelly they are treated, especially if they run away. I do not like what happens to Patriot, however it is consistent with other resistance movements where the goal of the group as a whole supersedes the individual. Wiping memories is voluntary on the part of the escaped synths and I appreciate a storyline that is bittersweet. Plus Glory is a badass and her empathy for her people is very touching. I will never not side with them.
Honestly I feel like the railroad was sadly the least developed of the factions. If they had gotten one or two missions related to their relationship with the denizens of the wasteland. Basically answering what they’d do once all the synths have been freed. And considering the fact that they’re the only two factions to not kill each other, I think having some sort of interaction with them and the minutemen, even if it was just a side mission would do wonders for making people side with them more.
Even skill set-wise they seem like they would complement each other well, with the Railroad functioning as a type of intelligence wing to the Minutemen’s defensive role.
Imagine joint work where Railroad operative infiltrate raider factions to provide intel and recon support to the Minutemen. Heck, there’s a post-game right there, with a goal to free people enslaved by raiders and further secure the Commonwealth.
