I only watched the first ep but I really liked it. I do hate how gory television is these days.
It’s set in a post-apocalyptic world, I would hate if it was pg
Its not just Fallout, I feel like shows in general are a lot more gory now. I enjoy fantasy and sci-fi stories and I love the games, but I also have had to be revived with smelling salts when I saw an incision IRL. I just wish I had a setting to not have to see that boot scene in 4k.
That boot scene was pretty horrific. Although I laughed when I they showed Lucy’s horrified reaction because she and I had the exact same face.
I also only had time for one episode so far but I dug it. Felt like they really nailed the vibe. I am loving our three main characters too.
I’m not a huge fan of gore but the violence here felt on par with the game and a little bit slapstick in a way that for me made it less gross and more silly.
I’m excited to watch more soon!
It’s cursed, it has all of the wierd Bethesda East Coast lore, tone, atmosphere, writing, and style, but on the West Coast, and does the West Coast factions dirty.
It also canonized some absolute bullshit, but this isn’t a spoiler thread, is it?
They decanonized FNV by having BoS nuke the dam at the First Battle of Hoover Dam. Cannot recommend; I refuse to recognize this timeline. Even FO4 recognizes some vestiges of FNV.
It’s just so goddamn silly how Bethesda just cannot understand Fallout, and it’s doubly cursed to see the terrible goofy grimdark mess of East Coast Fallout with West Coast factions.
I have many negative options of this show. Ultimately, while Lucy was…okay… Norm and chet had my favorite dynamic and didn’t act like complete morons most of the time.
They seemed to have set out with the intention of making the BoS a slapstick comedy rayher than a serious player consisting of intelligent humans. Especially Knight Titus and Maximus felt like horribly written characters.
I understand them going for humor but… I feel the slapstick nature of it really took away my enjoyment of it.
While fallout has had humor in it, I felt it was backseat to the actual atmosphere of its story of surviving the wasteland. In the series, slapstick seems to be all it is.
Also I don’t understand why they added the thing about ghouls.

They make a TV show out of everything nowadays, don’t they?

I don’t really know the story. wether they stay true to the game or not is not a big deal to me just like the Witcher.
It’s an open world game series with 4 games. It’s been so long since I played them, I barely remember what happened and where it’s canon or not. So, I’m practically in the same boat 🙂
