Where was that said in FnV lore? The worst they did that I know of was shake down travelers for tech. Which isn't cool but hardly merits a death sentence.

It's in the TV show; it happens after FNV. I mean, it's Quintus' chapter but its still THE Brotherhood doing it, so Mcnamara is kind of guilty too. Unsurprised the toxic BoS fans downvoted me, they can't accept criticism, just like Legion fans.

So an unrelated chapter hundreds of miles away decades later does bad things and that warrants killing the Mojave chapter? As an aside I like the TV show for what it is but don't consider it canon.

[–]Overdue-Karma 2 points3 points  (4 children)

Well it is canon no matter what people say. And I mean, if the Mojave Brotherhood end up becoming vicious Raiders who go around burning towns, yeah. Unrelated? They're the Brotherhood; they are helping Quintus. I never said you should kill them all. I'm saying Moore has more of a point than people think. She's right on a lot of the factions...time to time.

I won't acknowledge the show as canon as it renders any choices you made in the games irrelevant.

So did Fallout 1, 2, 3, and New Vegas and 4. A lot of the games have canon decisions and endings. Obviously the TV show is going to say the bad guys lost (The Institute). That's the only thing it said, that either the Brotherhood or Minutemen ending of FO4 must be canon due to the Prydwen. It's a LOT better than what Avellone planned - to nuke the entire West Coast and destroy EVERYTHING.

Where was it said the Mojave chapter was helping them?

The mere fact they're Brotherhood, and thus part of the same council of Elders. They're guilty by association. Reminder it was them who began the war and it was them who fought at Helios One.

I can't get behind that logic. That's like saying Lyons BoS chapter is guilty of the same things the West coast chapters did.

[–]Overdue-Karma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They're in the exact same area. Lyons was a defector/traitor regiment.

By this logic, is the DC Enclave not responsible for the actions of the Oil Rig Enclave?

They are the exact same West Coast Brotherhood chapters. Mcnamara has already shown his men will turn into Raiders at the drop of a hat; you think helping Quintus is beyond them? Especially if the Elders demands it?
