** The last story mission is designed for low-level players as the devs assumed that players would just breeze through the entire game, playing only the story missions and leveling up accordingly. As such the player character has absolutely no part in the final battle. Sarah Lyons and her Lyon's Pride mop up anyone Liberty Prime didn't already kill, Colonel Autumn can be talked out of fighting and, if you don't want to keep SaveScumming, he and his two goons aren't all that tough as Autumn doesn't have any armor nor heavy firepower while his guards are just rank and file soldiers. And then the ending: either kill yourself and get the "Good" ending or send Lyons and get the "Bad" ending and if you want to send Fawkes, your radiation immune Super Mutant buddy who's life you saved (and who, mind you, has ''already'' done pretty much the exact same thing with no problems earlier in the game, when he went and retrieved the G.E.C.K. for you), to do it he gives some hokey "it's your destiny" crap to push it onto you or Sarah. The other possible radiation-immune companions, Sergeant RL-3, who is a robot, and Charon, who is a ghoul and is therefore actively ''healed'' by being exposed to radiation, also refuse, something that is especially egregious in the latter case as Charon's whole main character trait is that he has been brainwashed into always unhesitatingly obeying the person who holds his contract. ''Broken Steel'' makes the Purifier ending less annoying but not by much.

* InformedWrongness: In the ending, a Lone Wanderer who [[spoiler: is not willing to [[HeroicSacrifice sacrifice their life]] to activate Project Purity will be treated as a coward in the narrative. This is despite the presence of multiple companions who are immune to the radiation that kills you in the intended ending, which makes this more of a StupidSacrifice than anything]].

* SalvagedStory: [[AndTheAdventureContinues The new ending]] provided by the DLC pack ''Broken Steel'', replacing the wildly unpopular [[StupidSacrifice original ending]] while also letting you send a radiation-immune companion to activate Project Purity if you so choose.

The only noted downside is that the game still calls you a coward if you do this.
