The Fallout community is ludicrous with this. New Vegas is one of the most politically charged games in recent years, and yet chuds think it's somehow not extremely anticapitalist and pro-leftist.

That's because those people have a hard on for the Brotherhood and don't see how they're basically technonazis.

There's definitely some enlightened centrist bullshit crammed in there pretty unironically.

The NCR is both Capitalist and Imperialist, the fact that the people of the Mojave don't want the Neoliberal expansionist empire or the fascist gang of slavers is more to the general leftist, almost Anarchist slant.

It's only centrist if you consider the NCR as the end of the spectrum, and not just a lesser of two right wing evils.
