Is Killing Swan worth it in Fallout 4?

Yes, you should kill Swan in Fallout 4 for the excellent loot, especially the legendary Furious Power Fist, which is one of the best unarmed weapons for melee builds, plus valuable armor and other items, making the tough fight worthwhile for clearing the Boston Common area and ending his misery. You can defeat him at low levels using environmental traps (like the subway entrance) or powerful weapons, so it's a rewarding challenge rather than a mandatory story point.

Is Minutemen ending canon?

The Minutemen ending in Fallout 4 is a strong contender for canon, especially after the Fallout TV show, but it's not definitively set in stone; the show implies either a Minutemen or Brotherhood of Steel victory, ruling out the Institute/Railroad, because the Prydwen airship appears, suggesting the BoS survived the Commonwealth conflict, leaving a Minutemen victory (perhaps with a neutralized BoS) as a very plausible, hopeful outcome for the region's future, as the Minutemen offer the best chance at rebuilding for ordinary people.

Is Shaun in Fallout 4 evil?

Yes, Shaun (Father) is a primary antagonist in Fallout 4, seen as "evil" or morally gray due to his leadership of the Institute, which uses kidnapping, replaces people with synths, and disregards wasteland life for his own vision of "humanity," making him ruthless, selfish, and lacking empathy for outsiders, despite his personal devotion to the Sole Survivor.
