I was rather surprised when I looked at the FNV subreddit half a year ago with a bunch of unironic Legion fans. I do wish they had the peaceful interior of the Legion's lands in the game if only because it would force people to see that despite a "better" interior than the Republic, the Legion's methods mean misery for all. I like the comparison to the real Rome where they create wastelands wherever they go destroying cultures and forcing obedience and maybe faced with this they might look a bit more at their own lived experiences, but nope, people are fine with the Legion just being slaving assholes that crucify people and that's all they are and it's good enough to stan.
There are certain people so baked in internet irony that the irony just becomes truth and it turns out they really are just sadists/fascists not doing a bit.
obsidian usually has some p good politics, tho maybe they just write in such a way where you can project whatever you want on to the game
NV can def feel that way
People that unironically support the fucking Legion...
Obsidian out there giving us a free "Scary Asshole" detector along with a great roleplaying game.
but my safe trade routes!!!!!
