While the game is broadly sympathetic to synths overall, Fallout 4 backs away from making any decisive statements about what Synths are capable of, humanity-wise. While some fans prefer the mystery, there are some good reasons that Fallout 4 should have unambiguously revealed that the player is a synth. One of the most memorable moments in the main quest is when the player character finds what appears to be their young son at last, before the Institute's leader reveals that it is in fact a synth copy of Shaun and that he is the player’s real son, having been thawed out years earlier. The game itself certainly encourages a level of paranoia. Evidence for this includes the fact that the player character survives their cryostasis, while all the other occupants aside from the player’s spouse and Shaun die because of their life-support systems failing. This has naturally led to many fan theories that the Sole Survivor themself could be a synth.
Many people in the Commonwealth are terrified that their neighbors are being replaced by synths sent from the Institute. Fallout 4 takes place in the Commonwealth, where on top of surviving radioactive fallout, fighting giant insects, scavenging for food, and facing down ghouls, raiders, and super mutants, many inhabitants have become extremely fearful of synths.
