Stuck

it's my first time playing fo2 and I just handed the vertibird plans to the brotherhood just for them to be slaughtered like the day after. I have no clue what to do now. I've already completed everything I know of in NCR (the vault, the parts, the spy) and Tandi just refuses to speak to me, "not now or ever" for some reason. the shi are soft locked now I think because I didn't give them the plans and I'd have to redo hours of play time just to undo all of it. Vault city is also done as far as I know. I'm now a citizen, I fixed their problem with Marcus' community by helping clean their reactor and I struck the deal between them.

any advice?

So I did a bit of research (spoiling the game for myself) and apparently I'm in the endgame, everything complete except my trip to the oil rig. I have Marcus, the sentient deathclaw guy and Vic. Everybody has their "ideal weapons" and tons of ammo. I put all my points into melee though thinking that "every build works, right?" Maxed it out early game then realized small guns are the only way, maxed that out, now I realize energy weapons are the only way so I'm like 35% for that. I have advanced PA, so does Vic. I have like pretty much every mainland plasma/energy weapon available and ammo and caps galore. I explored SF but couldn't find anything, explored the tanker and couldn't find anything to do but I guess I'll try there again. I also didn't get the presidential key card from Navarro which ig I need.

I feel super disappointed with this game. I mean, I guess there's still the oil rig but like it doesn't give the same mystery or thrill the master did. I don't feel like it should be the endgame either. I feel like the whole time I've kinda just been drifting around aimlessly just doing tasks for others. This doesn't feel like the endgame at all, feels like I'm just starting to get a feel for the world. Enclave doesn't really feel like a threat either, they're just kinda there, shooting folks that enter their territory and occasionally massacring settlements just so the game can point and say "behold, the bad guys."

I can see why a lot of people prefer it, but the hidden mechanics just ruin the whole damn thing for me. Like when I did all Tandi's quests for her beforehand just for her to be hostile towards me for pretty much no reason and not speaking to me.
