So i had a question about a late game story choice. Im about to set off the synth revolt but i was wondering would it be stopped if i destroyed the railroad? If i took the quest from bos to kill the railroad, would the synth escape mission be failed because desdemonas dead?


Also, if i were to side with the institute in the fusion generator mission, would the quest to destroy the railroad be failed since the bos are enemies. Just wondering because i want to be with the institute so which choice would move the story forward without without cutting off quests?

That's the dilemma. However, if I destroy the railroad and continue with them, does that mean I can't finish th3 synth revolt or can it be done regardless of factions

If you obliterate either the Institute or the Railroad, or both, there won't be a Synth revolt because who's going to be revolting and who will they be revolting against? They will all be dead.

-- Let me just add this one thing about the Institute: the whole point of you being there for the Railroad is to be their inside man/woman and assist their other inside man in preparing for the big rebellion. Getting kicked out destroys any chance of that ever happening.


If you make enemies of the BoS, obviously they're not gonna like you and will attempt to kill you on sight so any quest you have with them will automatically fail.


If you want to do the Institute, don't kill Father or any other member of the Institute, just keep doing what they tell you to do and you should be fine.
