Fallout (TV Series 2024– ) - IMDb

All 8 episodes of season 1, ready to enjoy alongside some nuka cola quantum 😎

(my homemade version)

I also must admit I am very keen to see another performance from Walton Goggins (Boyd Crowder from Justified - one of my favourite tv series)

Awesome, been looking forward to this. Hope they don't stuff it up!
 
From the trailer I can at the very least say everything looks super accurate in terms of the world. (Minus the power armour face mask)

I am quite ready to binge this over the weekend.
 
Story and visuals aside, for me the best part was the nonchalant smattering of little details.

A standout was a table inside that medical center where the uhhmmm, harvesting was to take place. The table in front of Beavis and Butthead looked JUST like a table would inside the games, with an assortment of seemingly random stuff scattered around. And I could identify the stuff on the table from the games!
 
Watched the nuke opening scene on Youtube over weekend. Might just check this out. Looks decent.
 
I'm on episode 3.

So far i give it a 7/10. The acting is sometimes ... average and weird.

I never played the game either so I feel like there's a few things that need better explanation as well.
 
It's not terrible just a bit thin considering their budget.

Needed more Fallout 4 wow and more feeling of how EVERYTHING in the world can kill you as well as how much EVERYTHING wants to kill you. The sets felt a bit lifeless so far, episode 1 and 2 felt too bland but there's this feeling of the show picking up from episode 3. I have not watched further yet.

Cast is okay, acting is average and plot fairly vague so far.

Brotherhood of steel was always pointless to me however I do love the suits but people only get a feeling of how fragile the suit is if you played Fallout 4.

Reasons to not play the Fallout 4 game is it felt like you bought a game to work

You go find some stuff to complete tasks in order to get to a point of the story where you end up killing something in order to get to a new area to collect some stuff to complete some tasks in order to get to a point where you kill something so that you can get to a new area to collect some stuff.......................... you see where I'm going here.


Fallout 3 was fairly interesting as the dialog from characters was wild depending on if you're a bit sadistic in trying to see how far npc speech goes

Then Fallout 76 is pretty much the online multiplayer version, it feels a bit old but it's now updated and sorted after years of them fixing things.

This show was beautiful. For those of us that appreciated the games it is like a love letter, but even the plot and directing, the way that it follows 3 protagonists and does not lose you in a convoluted plot.

I rate it a solid 9/11 would crash watch again
 
I never played the games, but can someone explain something to me ?

Do not read further if you haven't finished watching it.
How is she so nonchalant about certain things ?

In my mind, if she grew up in a perfect world (like it is portrayed she did), she would not simply be okay with;
Cuttting off a dude's head
biting off a finger
having her finger cut off, then having someone else's dead one put back
being tortured
being sold for spare parts

Felt like a massive plot hole for me ?

Probably Mods, it's Bethesda after all.

The 3 protagonists reminded me of GTA V, that would be a great approach for a Fallout 5 game tbh

Just need to chant "Okey Dokey" before to get fortify and boost mental health
 
I enjoyed it. Thing is there is almost too much material to work with so it couldn't have been easy trying to bring together something coherent in only 8 episodes without having an army of angry fans tearing it apart. The nice thing is that now that they've set the foundation the world is their oyster for season two.
