    The storytelling, acting, direction and set and sound design are so compelling that someone who is not steeped in Fallout lore still gets a great ride. I love Fallout, but my significant other ... not an iota. Yet we both loved the storytelling, the visuals and the compelling acting.

      I totally agree! I'm a fan of Fallout already from the games, but I've heard of a lot of people who haven't played the games that decided to dive into the games because of how much fun they had watching the show! That's a victory for the franchise for sure! I'm glad you guys enjoyed it like I did! Thank you a TON for the comment and tuning in!!

      I enjoy the show, and I enjoyed the changes that were made like the PA helmets being able to open the face like Iron Man and the idea of Radroaches actually being dangerous creatures. And if they actually made Radroaches dangerous then what they planned for Deathclaws, then oh god, the characters are fucked.

    A friend of mine told me to watch this series. He loves the games and told me that he and I should put together FO cosplays for the comic con we go to every year. After watching the first episode, I could not stop. I went online and bought FO:NV. A month later I saw Steam was having a sale, so I bought FO1-4 and Tactics. I’m writing this as I see together a vault suit for a convention in 2 months. The show may not be “perfect” but it’s damn close.

    If treat this show as non canon tv series the I would give it a score of 4/10. There was pretty good acting in few scenes, and the brutality of the wasteland was pretty nicely done. However if you start taking into the account the lore of Fallout Universe the we start to have some complications. Firstly we have the infamous board explaining the history of NCR that doesn't sit well with the events happening in Fallout New Vegas game (the did even get wrong how New Vegas looks in the final scene of this tv series). Secondly the didn't showed us any alive creatures like Super Mutants, Deathclaws, Fire Geckos, Protectrons, Sentry Bots, bloatfly's, Radscorpions, and Mirelurks (I will skip Wanamingo, since they were destroyed by the Chosen One). Finnaly there wasn't any usage of energy weapons through the entire duration of this tv series (the energy weapons are the primary weapons for Brotherhood of Steel faction). Oxhorn did pretty good video explaining how that infamous board explaining the history of NCR is problematic to the lore events from Fallout New Vegas.
    Ps. I wonder if there were any easter eggs referencing Fallout Brotherhood of Steel PS2 game, and Fallout Online (known as Projekt V13) that we could find in Fallout TV series?

    Some cgi… I suggest you watch the vfx breakdowns. The immediate foreground and actors are largely the only things filmed on location that end up in the final frame. There was so much invisible set dressing/extension CGI that no one even thinks off.

      That’s not politics, it’s economics. As far as the politics of economic systems are concerned, it doesn’t really do anything with modern day, real world politics. It sticks with the politics of the 1950’s cold war era, focusing on rooting out communism in the states.

    @19:57 "Ideologies have been steadily creeping in and ruining great franchises" - the inclusion of a trans actress portraying a character in the Brotherhood didn't "ruin" it, but it was noticeable and annoying; the discourse around this casting decision was even more annoying, and clearly motivated by leftist political views. Again, it didn't "ruin" the show - mainly because she was portraying a side character, and only in a handful of episodes - but this could definitely be viewed as an ideology "steadily creeping in", and I don't think it added anything to the show...

      I noticed the trans actress in the first episode and initially was like oh god here we go. But she only had the 5 minutes of screen time and we didn't see her again until the the last two and she didn't have even a large part, so that made me happy. But I can see a few underlying political left issues with the show, but largely it seems it stayed away. Although I have been bummed that I haven't seen a same race couple in tv ib like 10 years it seems like :/ thank you for the comment and tuning in!!

      @@theheatinferno8420 the sexual preferences of a storyteller are irrelevant, gay ≠ woke, and your assertion relies on a false equivalency; also, attributing the entirety of the Fallout series and game series to one person is ludicrous.
      An analogous situation would be attributing the entirety of Star Wars to George Lucas - yes, he was the original creator and is responsible for developing the foundation that all of Star Wars has built upon, but there are countless creatives who have contributed immensely to various Star Wars projects... saying that Star Wars was all made by George would be disingenuous and would discount the contributions made by others - that's precisely what you're doing to Fallout by saying that it was "made by a gay guy" (which again, isn't relevant anyways).

    It tries to do the fallout 4 thing where the faction dies with its main base of operations (in season 1) notice how the ncr barely exists at all when the ncr,not only had like 700k people at the time of fo2 which would be at the very minimum 1 mil by nv,it controlled a fair bit of california and the capital being nuked wouldn't completely erase the ncr.
    It follows fallout 4 more than the games (some) of the fans adore,like,1,2 and nv,and also they moved SHADY SANDS INTO LA what the fuck thats like moving las vegas to san francisco,ok maybe more of an extreme example but..
    Also the dates on that one stupid mistake of a chalkboard contradict new vegas very much
    Shady sands likely was on the decline by 2277 yes,but the whole nuking of the capital BY VAULT TEC NO LESS was so goddamn stupid i can't,oh and the enclave having a vault right in ncr territory
    This show is based off of fallout 4 with the location of fallout 1,but messed up in multiple ways.
