      Not only is there no concept of science, the amazon series is at most average, and the writing is atrocious. It’s like a cheap dilapidated carnival ride and the only source of drama is watching it fall apart.

    Okay, the Radiation evolution point is interesting, however it is half analyzed. In the Fallout universe the world had to deal with the "New Plague" which they tried to counteract with the Forced Evolution Virus. A massive release of that virus is the real reason why things had an easier time mutating in the FO universe!

      I also don't think enough people give credit to the foods preservatives. Think about it. Salisbury steaks, perfectly preserved pies, and other foods which lasted over 220 years and yet doesn't give us botulism or other bacteria? I bet that's the bigger reason for ghouls than anything else.

    The area immediately around Chernobyl is still dangerous. Just because Pripyat is in the clear, doesn't mean hazardous radiation isn't still hanging around after all these years.
    In the end, it is based on the amount of radioactive fallout dispersed initially, and what isotopes are present in said fallout.

    I am a fallout gamer, so this series is long overdue. I will admit that this story is nothing like what I was expecting--which is a good thing. I will admit that the story would be better off without certain scenes, for plotting, because they have no ties to the games.

    "Life in Chernobyl has flourished and the land is pristine"
    She actually serious?
    Besides the fact that all organisms died and the entire land had to be turned over multiple times... and every building and structure abandoned... there are still places that will end you in minutes...
    "Life" from the outside passing through and ending due to DNA damage a few years later is hardly "flourishing"...
