Fallout 4 Why Dont People Like Piper?
I like piper, shes cool and happy,some of the speech could be better though.
I dont get why people dont like? i use quite often for companion and romance.
She has cool jacket to, more pretty than cait. Dont forget to check there
Items as companions pick quite lot of weapons ect was surprized.
Heard Piper synth so i wondered? So reason why the Institute did not stop her?

You start off with her trying to get in back to Emerald city because she wrote a slanderous article on the mayor. Sure I don't like the mayor, he seems like a sleeze bag, but writing defamatory statements about someone with no evidence. Especially with such an outrages claim like "HE'S A SYNTH", is absolutely a scummy thing to do.

She seems like she makes her articles based on novelty and fear mongering, whipping up the synth scare. She believes she is "making a difference" but what she is actually doing is riling up a mob to take down the mayor. I don't like the mayor, but I don't have to, he only has to do an ok enough job. He might or might not care about the missing people, but if he did care, a know it all journalist whipping up a mob DOES NOT HELP.

I am aware of what the mayor actually is, but that doesn't take away from my point. It is great if she is right, great, how great would it be if she was wrong? I like her intentions, but hate her approach.

I dislike how she is trying to indoctrinate her little sister, a kid at such a young age with a negative disposition to politics and synths. "Nobody can stop the press", yeah that doesn't seem like a fair and balanced view of the world. Piper is the kind of person to come to your birthday party and stir trouble with all your friends, then claim "i'M JuST beINg HOneST".

No, that's a hard pass from me, I already didn't like her when she pressures your lone wanderer at the beginning to take sides, in her eyes you are either on her side, smart and righteous, or an idiot for siding with the mayor. No thanks, expecting a stranger who has no actual idea of you, your company and the mayor to just throw caution to the wind because she believes she is good and righteous is the height of naivety.

I like Nick because he behaves and acts like a real adult human who has his head screwed on. (Ironic because he isn't one)

How dare you. Cait is much more beautiful than Piper. She just needs to get her hair did.

The institute cares about silencing piper about as much as any given government (that isn't China) cares about silencing whacky conspiracy theorists.

In general I don't like the companion system in Fallout4, and Piper she was always talking and talking to herself over and over while I was trying to enjoy the exploration. I prefer a bit more like Elex, in certain situation companions speak.
Apart from that she is alright. not memorable.

beauty is in the eye of the beholder. That said many have issues with followers that nag them over every little action they take. That is why there is so many mods to change the look and behavior of followers.

People don´t like Piper because she is a vivid character that makes them feel insignificant and uninteresting, it´s pure envy.

To paraphrase Piper: "All people want is the shirt off your back. All you gotta do is give it to them." Piper and her philosophy can go to Hell

She doesn't say that. What she says is, "All people want is a hand. All you have to do is give them one". In other words, "help" them.

I like Piper and Curie. Curie is the hottest however. Cait does not like you helping others or making a sacrifice for them. Yet she is not hesitate to ask the SS for help. But the game sort of explains why she is that way.

She is not a synth. Just because one source mentions it, does not mean she is. Where is the proof she is? Did they provide that very important point?

Better yet, where is that supposed source? I can't find it at all. The only mentions of Piper I see on Gamerant don't say or even imply anything about her being a synth.

If there was even the remote possibility she was a synth, it would say so on her wiki page. But it doesn't. Unlike a certain other secret synth that is never revealed, and is only identifiable using console commands to enable killing him. Sturges drops a synth component upon death.
