I already disliked all the references to US history in Fallout 4. To me, cowboys feel misplaced in a science fiction universe. It's just personal preference though. But the question stands: are large parts of the main story related to the cowboy characters, or does it work mostly without?

Hard agree honestly - as an Aussie, American exceptionalism tires me. For what it's worth, there is The Expanse, that compares colonisation of other worlds more to British colonisation (and Roman, for that matter) if that interests you

Great thanks! I have heard good things about that series. Now I want to check it out even more :)

To be fair - there is a tiny bit of space cowboy-ism in The Expanse, tough. But it is very tongue-in-cheek, even in-universe.
