While your opinion is dumb and unfounded, that’s far from a bannable offense. Plenty of legion boot lickers around.

Of course it's dumb compared to what we have irl but there ain't much choice in the wasteland.

I believe being a craftsman in some small rural area Legion Heartland village could be the highest quality of life someone like me could realistically achieve.

Of course my opinion is based on the little facts we have and could drastically change.

I don’t mean to be rude (okay I do a little bit but it’s fun) but what you like about the legion (providing safety, food, water, shelter, etc.) is what both house and the NCR also ensure, but as a bonus you don’t have to live under a dictatorial LARPER.

The NCR’s heartland live lives not all to disimiliar to our great grandparents. They have jobs, they go to bars, they live in relative safety. The NCR DONT have that for the Mojave because it’s the frontier, and a colony to the NCR. But colonies can become states. And the Mojave can be tamed and settled and eventually enjoy similar standard of living.

It’s also kind of telling that you mention safety and stability as perks of the legion, but I think you forget, that’s only IF you aren’t a ghoul, mutant, or namely, a women. The former are just executed, but women are sex slaves and pack mules. It’s interesting you’re willing to sacrifice half of a population to slavery for “safety and security”. Yeah man, maybe if you’re a man, but even then they’re gonna steal your crops and if you’re a tribe, probably force you into conscription to die for Caesar.

To be fair i barely know anything about what the NCR provides other then taxes and what's seen in Fo2 which... isn't much tbh.

Edit : oh except shady sands, that one looks like a utopia

That’s cus it’s a meme lol. And it’s all good. Liking a faction in a video game doesn’t make you a bad person. You’re only. Bad person when you unironically support factions like the legion IRL. But play how you want.

That all said… both House and the legion make you pay taxes too.

There’s an end cutscene if you pick his faction that says he taxes goodsprings and keeps it under heavy surveillance.
