      I never understand why companies get so picky about this. If I see a reaction to a show or film and it looks good I end up renting the content to see the whole thing. Those who don't won't end up renting the content anyway, so it's not as if the studio loses out either way.

      You know what part is underrated that people just laugh at is the chicken effer scene. Because in the game after you help someone they make a remark and just carry on. No talking real NPC action and I think it gets over looked because it was comical. Like obviously everyone knows the scene and it’s over rated in the sense that it’s what everyone talks about. But they are talking about how it was legit just an NPC moment.

    My dad LOVED the Fallout games. It is all he would play. Over and over and over again. He passed away just over a year ago and in his last years was suffering from early signs of dementia. (He was in his late 60's) I think he loved the games so much because it was one of the few things he still enjoyed and could really remember. Watching the series...I just kept thinking how much my dad would have loved this! His favorite game turned into a fantastic tv show. Especially since in the first episode, one of the characters had his name...Monte.

    Honestly the video game curse has been broken for a long time. The top tier incredible pieces like Arcane, Last of Us, Cyberpunk Edgerunners, Castlevania, and now Fallout. Then you have the lesser but still fun and entertaining ones like Sonic, Detective Pikachu and Mario. At this point the whole curse thing just isn't a thing anymore, now it's just the normal variations of project quality that all film and shows have since film-making is such an intrinsically difficult and complex medium to create in.

    Strength : 4
    Perception: 7
    Endurance: 6
    Charisma: 5
    Intelligence: 6
    Agility: 5
    Luck: 7
    She also has the following Skills according to Episode 1 with the minimum scores according to the video game:
    Barter: 30
    Big Guns: 15
    Doctor: 21
    Energy Weapons: 15
    First Aid: 36
    Gambling: 41
    Lockpick: 26
    Melee Weapons: 59 (Points Put in here)
    Outdoorsman: 11
    Repair: 26 (Points Put in here)
    Science: 37 (Points Put in here)
    Small Guns: 40 (Points Put in here)
    Sneak: 30
    Speech: 35 (Points Put in here)
    Steal: 25
    Throwing: 45
    Traps: 26
    Unarmed: 69 (Points Put in here)
    Keep in mind that these skills scores assume that the rules for Fallout 1 and 2 are used, are the minimum score Lucy can have at the start and don't account for the skill points Lucy gains at level 1 and ever subsequent level after. However, from the skills that she displays and tells us she has we can assume that there are points put into said skills. Assuming the rules for Fallout 1 and 2 are being used, she would have a total of 17 skill points to go around at level 1 and every time she levelled up.

With a limited amount of space inside and a limited amount of supplies which both have to last you indefinitely, it really is a case of giving you & your family the best chance to survive; if he lets his friend (and, presumably, his friend's family) into the shelter, he's probably sealing all of their deaths.

      @@antonycharnock2993 probably not surprising considering Bethesda owned the rights to them from the games (the ones they didn't create themselves), but it's all songs used in the games. The show does a great job of capturing the tone and theme of the show, blithe 50's cheer overlayed with the horrors of man and nightmare of nuclear war

      People are very conflicted on that. It seems like the more die-hard fans of the franchise are NOT very happy about the series.

    To clear up the confusion about the yellow liquid the Ghoul was taking.
    It stops Ghouls from going feral and the reason it was being fed into him at the beginning was because of th etorture method. The guys who dug him up worked for some crime boss who had buried Cooper 'alive'. The yellow substance keeps him lucid in order for the torture to be effective, he can't die so he's just buried alive for days, weeks, months, years... Decades, at a time as long as he keeps receiving the 'anti-ghoul' serum.

    Yes, the implication is that Cooper was the original model for Vault Boy. Also, if you pay attention, you'll find Vault Girl is around too. The town, FIlly, is build in/on a landfill(y).

    I'm proof that this is a really good adaptation.
    I'm a middle-aged woman who has never played Fallout. I have played a fair share of first person shooters back in the stone age, though.
    Still I really enjoy the hell out of this. The colorful sets and weird gadgets takes me back to the old games and gives even me a sense of nostalgia. They also take the time to let me figure out what thing are and what's going on. That's good world building. But what makes it work is the complex storylines and even more complex characters. I've been missing those for a while....
