Fallout 3 had some rough edges when it came to branching paths since Bethesda hadn't really made a game with as many narrative branches as Fallout, even if they were inspired by the series beforehand. For a decision like this which they knew most players wouldn't even want to male; and fewer would have the stats to achieve, it was really more about just writing something which would justify having the option there in the first place.

Colonel Autumn is the example of a villain that had a lot of potential but never went anywhere. Its clear all he wants is the enclave to serve a purpose and shares none of the ideals of Eden. The issue is the Brotherhood did the same thing it always does, hoard technology. Except this time their hoarding a water purifier and the most they'll ever use it for is to give out free water. Which at first is a good idea but the problem shown by Bethesda is its idealistic, in practice they were working Rivet security to the bone to do this. By what Autumn talks about is they wanted people to come to the enclave for water, protection, and a plan for the future. Which is incredibly grounded in reality compared to hauling it across the wastes, especially considering water seems like a non problem. It seemed like your father was less about drinking water and more about purifying the river itself.

There was an alternate history video that a KZfaqr did where Autumn was able to get the purifier code out of the Lone Wanderer at Raven Rock before eliminating that particular loose end, only for the Enclave to go from the clear villains of the series to unexpected good guys as once they destroyed the BoS, Eden decides to poison the purifier with another pawn and Autumn isn’t happy about it, thus causing him to turn on the ZAX supercomputer and save the Capital Wasteland from a terrible fate.

The main antagonist is a supercomputer that thinks it's the president that you can easily talk into killing itself.

That's not surprising. In the grand scheme of things, morality-wise the Enclave has always been a mildly more extreme alternative to the Brotherhood of Steel (excluding the Lyons branch). The main noteworthy differences they have are that: 1. Their goals are different. The Enclave wants to rebuild pre-war America, the Brotherhood wants to keep dangerous technology out of the hands of others. 2. The Enclave has the resources to actually put most of their plans to action. The Brotherhood on the other hand has historically struggled for various resources. 3. Both factions oppose Mutants, even Ghouls receive poor treatment from the Brotherhood. It's just that some in the Enclave consider human Wastelanders to also be mutants (keyword being some). I find it funny how Bethesda, and even some fan communities, consider the Enclave to be something completely unforgivable. Even though over 80% of post-war factions are significantly worse.

I had so much fun with Fallout 3- when I was 10, 11. That's just it. When you're an 11, 12, 13 year old, whatever, a young guy playing games, this was THE coolest thing out there at the time, and all the simplicities could be forgiven. What this game is is a game for adolescents and children wearing the disguise of an M rated game, including occasional things that step over the line. That's what I've realized fundamentally coming back to look at this and Oblivion. They were developing these two games for children, and for consoles- that's why the story is so fundamentally stupid and the enemies one sided, with pandering moral messages sprinkled throughout.. not to mention the unbelievably long and boring DC metro. It was literally designed primarily for children and there's no other explanation. I don't see these kinds of immature "omg this is sooo deep fawkes wont go in even though hse immune because its my destiny or something oOooOo and blowing up megaton is bad because liam neeson will be sad for 4 seconds" writing anywhere else. It's the sort of slop you find in the plots of children's cartoons but gamified. Fallout 3 succeeded because it's exactly what its target audience wanted, and at at a time when parents were known for just looking right past that M sticker on the box for the games. Full of things that were just a little over the line in terms of edginess, sexuality, all of that jazz to someone that age, but passe as a now 25 year old.
