I have got to the point where I met the son. He is around sixty years old now. However, upon meeting him I am completely fucking confused as to who the enemy really is. He leads the Institute, and it seems like they are just another faction. I am kind of reluctant to proceed because he wants to kill the railroad, and they want to kill him. I am confused on who to side with. I really don't want to lose access to the Institute because it looks cool to me. I also really hate Tinker Tom because he won't stop giving me side quest that are useless. So I may side with the Institute if possible.
