>>13186435After seeing the crucifixions I took a step back and made a decision.
I decided to roll with the Legion because they were vanquishing the wicked and imposing force onto the wastes.
The introductory quest areas had bumbling fools and bandits mucking about. And the lone survivor of the lottery more or less sealed the deal.
If you don't have integrity in the face of death, as far as I'm concerned it never existed.
The legion just got better and better, their own currency, slavery, Indo-European spirituality and vigor etc.
Literally everything else was a depraved LARP, the Eyes Wide Shut society, the Brothel Mafia, the Cringe Republic, the Mormons, the Greasers, the Dope Heads, Mutants, etc.
You can't incorporate a bunch of criminal syndicates, marauding lunatics, and tribes of superstitious savages into a modern-day Republic.
The Legion was uniting the only worthwhile communities with their Frumentarii. The NCR was clinging on to pre-war politics and living in denial.
