What?
The whole synth plot went nowhere and did nothing.
What was there to be paranoid about? Apart from the scary number of players siding with the techno fascists.
That's exactly what I was thinking. At no point do I ever see the synths being a problem. By default they're strictly driven by the institute and have no autonomy, on their own they're literally a slave class vying for freedom. No one ever turns on you, no one ever betrays you, every single character you encounter is exactly honest about who they are and whether or not they're good people.
If they wanted a sense of paranoia, they should have had encountera where you're attacked by doubles of your recently dismissed party members, or characters with more than one dimension.
the good synth plot is in FO3.
