Liberty Prime would be a better satire if it wasn't, canonically, incredibly useful to saving the Wasteland. In lore it was meant to be an impractical boondoggle that cost so much money it fucked the American people over, but in game it's a useful weapon of war used to kill fascists and take back a water purifier
Would've been a better satire if they'd taken the voice module out and drawn attention to how annoying the jingoism was, or if it didn't even work at all and all it did was spout jingoisms
In Fallout 3, Liberty Prime screams about killing communists and saving America while attacking the Enclave, which is the last remnant of the American government. Fallout 3 isn't very good, but that part always puts a smile on my face.
