Fallout co-creator Tim Cain says the one thing he'd like to see from the series moving forward is an "actual good faction": "Fallout trains you that everything's gray" (www.gamesradar.com)

Desdemona is a psychopath. When you side with the railroad, you attack the institute and she sends in soldiers to slaughter innocent unarmed scientists as they run away screaming. Then she blows up a clean, safe, well secured complex that could be used to comfortably house everyone in the Commonwealth. I chose railroad on my first playthrough because they seemed like the good guys. They're not. Never again.

On my first playthrough I like to go in blind and try to make the choices I'd make irl. That's why it bothered me so much, of I found myself.in this situation for real I would have supported these sociopaths. And it didn't even give me the option to kill them later
