A hilarious detail found inFallout 4has revealed exactly what makes the Institute so evil. The Institute is one of themain factions inFallout 4, initially spoken of as a boogeyman of the Commonwealth before eventually becoming a key player in the main quest.
Community feeling on the Institute was mixed upon the release ofFallout 4. The faction had been teased for the game as far back asFallout 3, but many players felt that it didn’t quite live up to expectations in the sequel. Some of its motivations bordered on cartoonishly evil, stealing humans and replacing them with synths. That didn’t stop plenty of gamers from siding with the Institute duringFallout 4’s main quest, with many picking Father over factions such as the Railroad and the Brotherhood of Steel.

The funny detail was posted to Reddit by user frothywingspan, who declared the Institute “evil” due to their toilet roll being put on backward. There’s certainlyplenty of evidence inFallout 4to declare the Institute evil, but for some this latest discovery has taken it too far. The user themselves even referred to them as “monsters” as a result of this find.
Other gamers in the thread had some very bad news for the original poster. Apparently, every roll of toilet paper inFallout 4is positioned in exactly the same way, meaning that this is actually a Bethesda issue rather than anything Institute-specific. It’s clearly an issue that has been bothering a lot of players, no matter how small the problem, as another user posted a link to a mod that actually turns around every roll of toilet paper inFallout 4. It’s interesting that in a game so well-known for its attention to detail, something like this has slipped through the cracks.
One of the most exciting aspects of a potentialFallout 5is the thought of the small details that Bethesda will include. Withnew details still being found inFallout 4all the time, Bethesda really has mastered the art of attention to detail. These can be small things that reveal new things about characters, or huge revelations that have huge lore implications. No matter what, Bethesda is sure to spare no expense with the sequel. WithStarfieldandThe Elder Scrolls 6still to come,Fallout 5still has some way to go until release, and it’s likely not even in active development yet - although nothing has been officially confirmed.
Fallout 4is available on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
