- After being badgered about it on social media, Chris Avellone went ahead and watched the Fallout TV Show twice. So he could also write his opinions on it.

In Fallout 5: You will have to find your elderly dad and then you have to find your son. It just works.
lol 😆
Fallout 5: Find your brother who's finding your dad who's finding your mom.
You find your dad but he's a baby.
You'll have to find your son and later is revealed that your son is your dad.
@@ikiwe9730 Don't give them ideas! 😅
It's remarkable how short the attention span of the modern TV watcher is. Jingle keys in front of them enough and they don't care how little things are explained or forget things that happened in the same season.
Thank goodness people like me, who still prefer binge watching older yet fully finished shows, exist to stifle the waves of entertainment backwardness.
I don’t know, I grew up reading books.
What things aren't explained that needed to be in the first season, or things that were forgotten by people? If you're gonna insult people's attention span you better be ready to back it up.
@@dylanv.4970the show never mentioned that China was the enemy in the Great War.
Something that I think is important to mention is that Mr.House never proposed any vault experiments and never voiced support for the vault experiments and also seemed to doubt them so I don’t mind him being there
they need to have him tweaking about the bombs coming before hes ready next season or they have completely fucked it up.
@@astillia6073da platnum chib
Well they didn’t seem to mention the resource wars much either.
@@astillia6073 that would retcon something he said in New Vegas. He said in 2060 he ran simulations on every outcome of the nuclear war by 2080 and every one resulted in a nuclear war so he began to prepare. He was only 3 years short of his preparations and was only missing the platinum chip. Which I am fearing will be the Macguffin of season 2.
Me neither, he was really calm about the whole thing which made sense since he knew it was all going to happen anyway, he just wanted to know if the partnership can benefit his future plans.
The writers would probably do better in a setting they could make from the ground up. It’s good work but only if it were in a vacuum. I love Chris’ work but his best stuff has always been playing in somebody else’s sandbox Star Wars, Fallout, etc.he is nerd supreme and the writers of the TV show aren’t so much. I think the show is maybe a few hurdles short of being a perfectly fine Fallout show, I think the writers just couldn’t kill their darlings to figure out what the show was really about.
Wasn't the weakness he was talking about in the flashback with the t-45 power armor not with the t60 that we see in the show?
It carried over to the T-60. The ghoul uses it to kill a BoS knight.
I think the reason the didn’t exploit the power armor weakness with maximas because he wasn’t expecting to fight someone in power armor so he was using hollow points not armor piercing rounds but was ready for it in the last episode
Perhaps. We see him load some sort of special round as he gave his speech to the Brotherhood soldiers. We see him load ammo in Filly too. But not when he's fighting Maximus. That's not to say he didn't have time though. Maximus was on the ground with Lucy at one point for enough time for him to load up. But we hear him continue to shoot. So yeah, I don't know.
No it was because Maximus was a main character so he HAD to waste like 30 bullets shooting at him
@@PapitoQinn yeah idk either my best guess though
Would be cool to see a character hit someone in power armor with pulse slugs from a shotgun that would be epic or even a pulse grenade
I had a sense of Apathy when watching the show…..
Nice to see you again, Papi!
Thanks. But I was still here.
Im only commenting because i recognize the music from Battlezone... you sir have impeccable taste.
As do you. Battlezone 98 is my favorite game of all time.
Best part of this video was hearing Vode An
About the “gulper”, it’s not a gulper. It doesn’t look anything like the gulpers in Far Harbor or Appalachia.
When the trailers initially came out I thought it was a centaur, but it’s shown that the process for making them is a lot different.
The ghoul in the show calls it a gulper.
Gulpers can come in many different forms and sizes just like Mirelurks. A gulper is just a mutated aquatic salamander of some kind. Which the one in the show is.
@@PapitoQinn I like to think it being similar to west coast supermutant and east, or Mirelurk and Lakelurk being different. They`re just regional species. They`re not gulper, but looks similar enough for the people to call it.
Bethesda couldn't write themselves out of a paper bag.
Ghoulification don't provide that recovery rate, correct. Hydra does. Having had a gun pointed at him, then mix in the "experimental drug" that Hancock used.
The Ghoul isn't invulnerable, given the line "a small drop in a large bucket of drugs" suggests he prepped with any and all chems in the book.
I did the same thing when playing hardest difficulty mode/hardcore/survival/whatever, and self inflicted perma death. I'm not playing anything anymore though.
Complaining about Gulpers in the shows west coast is like complaining about Death Claws in the Capital Wasteland or Eastern Commonwealth.
Ffs, they're mutated Axolotl's, where does it say they can't exist everywhere? And given their regenerative abilities, of course they would be researched.
So the new cult of the NCR doesn't make sense. But the Children of Atom and all the previous wacky stuff somehow did?
It's a series based off an RPG, even back in dice days *ALL* systems I touched had wacky elements to them. And guess what. We had fun.
Take it for what it attempts to be, and deal with it instead of complaining like a spoiled brat who can't have his childhood toys anymore.
For what it attempts to be, it succeeds massively. If 90% of Fallout fans and 95% of non Fallout fans says so, then maybe there's something to it?
Finding an authority who agrees don't mean much when there are other authorities that disagrees. Worth discussing? Sure. Draw conclusions? Nope.
As for New Vegas looking okay, does it look like New Vegas is doing okay? Something bad went down in the timeline, we just don't know exactly what yet.
Does it have mistakes, retcons, or outright bad decisions? Probably. Does the flawless even exist, even in movies with higher budgets? Not that I know of.
Sorry, you just come out as someone who loves to find something to hate for the sake of hating. No attempts explaining or show of good will. Thumbs down.
I made a video talking about something the Fallout TV Show did better than any of the games.
@@PapitoQinn I would hope so, as the audience is broader. But I don't think the two mediums are comparable. I'd say the writing may be better in the show than the Bethesda games (especially FO4, I know nothing about FO76), but you also couldn't write like that for a game. I don't think the writing beats Fallout New Vegas (and DLCs) though. Add the DLCs to Fallout 3, and the writing improves overall.
I think the Fallout TV show is proof that the Halo show would have been well received by simply keeping Chiefs helmet on. Keep the same awful story and blatant disrespect for the games, just leave the helmet on. They would have loved it like they did this terrible Fallout show.
FNV fans think they are the only ones that can manipulate...
Fallout New Vegas: I need to find the Platinum Chip.
Fallout 4: WHO THE FUCK SHOT MY WIFE?!?
what is the first quest goal of They Went That-a-Way again? Do you wanna bet it doesn't mention the platinum chip?
@@astillia6073 the first quest goal of "Out of Time" in FO4 is to exit the Vault. The second one is to head home. The third is to talk to Codsworth. Only after after that is Shaun actually mentioned in the quest objective as the FOURTH objective. In "They Went That-a-Way" the delivery/Platinum Chip is mentioned as the THIRD quest objective. Shaun is not the first quest objective and even comes up LATER than the chip so what is your point anyway??? Kellogg = Benny, Shaun = Platinum Chip. If you don't see the parallels I can't help you. But FNV preachers act as if these games are completely different...
You actually don't need to find the Platinum Chip at all lol
@@funki4896 hey guess what the first quest in FNV, is actually the tutorial Aint That a Kick in The Head, so if you wanna play like that then ive got say... 6 quests in goodsprings I could count. I was trying to be generous by limiting it to the main story quests only. But please keep trying to own me.
I thought Maximus' acting made sense but why he felt the need to confess to Lucy that he let his Knight died as if it was blot on his character made zero sense. The Knight would've got him killed and the fact he left a whole bag of supplies made zero sense and the idea he could keep that armor without anyone caring he has it makes no sense. He would've gotten killed if a BoS member caught him in it. His best course of action at that point would've been to defect and begin life anew.
It also made zero sense for Lucy to have no PTSD from witnessing her Vault friends get viciously murdered. This makes no sense. But of course the biggest problem this show has is an impossibly absurd amount of incompetent characters. Maximus is incompetent, Thaddeus is incompetent, the doctor drilling on a foot for scientist is incompetent, Knight Titus is incompetent, the scientist himself unaliving himself before fully explaining the situation is somehow incompetent, and the ghoul trying to run out the axol with a stick is ridiculous. This entire show is made up of incompetent people and it's not enjoyable to watch. We're watching buffoons do Spongebob Squarepant in a nuclear fallout setting. Can anyone name a cool character in this show?
The ghoul? He's not cool at all. He's OP in a bad way, you literally can't kill him. He's like the f qing wolverine I swear to God. OP characters are lame and uninteresting. They couldn't have made Maximus a techno geek that's really good with hacking and maybe is good at outmanuvering his enemies? Norm gives away his position by letting Betty know he's on to her? How is that high IQ?
My god...and is no one going to explain why no one thought to take over the other open Vault by bringing back raiders to claim it as their own? It also made sense for the raiders to go along with Moldiver's plan when they could live out their in Vault 32 rather than raid a Vault that would cost them their lives unnecessarily. That made no sense. It would've made more sense and for it to be cooler if Moldiver enlisted people who bitter about the nuking of Shady Sands and wanted to capture Hank Maclean. And the fact they're raiders was so f qing obvious. The writers could've been a lot more subtle about it but whatever.
Fallout show was utter garbage
Nah it was good but not good enough!
Imagine calling a show that's almost universally loved garbage with a straight face.
@@dylanv.4970I could if I wanted to and there’s nothing you could do about it.
@@Icehead2.0 It's a serviceable "turn your brain off and watch the `member-berries" type show but the moment a person with even a basic comprehension of the setting starts to actually think about it then it all falls apart. But on the other hand to massive nerds of the franchise who aren't blinded by fanboyism the show is nothing more than a half-assed insult.
@@KopitioBozynski exactly! Well put!
