I should have said 3 since Twisted Metal was good but Peacock is the steaming network good shows go to be forgotten. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lynux3 2,087 Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 I’ll watch it. Seems to be getting a lot praise. Always wary of video game shows. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
David P 40 Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 Watched for about 15 minutes and stopped. Not bad but I can't watch TV anymore for some reason. They were like maybe ten wink wink Fallout reference in the space of 15 minutes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MalaXmaS 647 Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 I watched up to episode 3. Pretty good although I am confused about mixing up the Enclave with the Brotherhood of Steel. Didn't know the BoS needed a support guy next to it. Also didn't like the fact that T-60 didn't require that nuclear battery to run seeing as they live in post nuclear apocalyptic earth and resources as scarce. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The T-60 is running on a fusion core AKA a nuclear battery. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe I haven't gotten up to that part. That enlist treats the power armor like a toy with no knowledge of its limits but what's worse was having that twerp using it before.

David P 40 Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 The worst change to the lore so far is with the ghouls turning feral if they don't take a medicine. It makes no sense. But I also don't really care when 95% of Fallout stuff is well represented. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But I also don't really care when 95% of Fallout stuff is well represented. I don't mind that change. In fact, I'd say that I would support that change in the lore. So, I watched the series over the weekend. The first episodes are really good with setting up the premise, the environment details, and really enjoyable pacing. And then the show really starts slowing down and it starts accumulating more and more plot holes. And you end up realizing that the scope of its story is not going to be as big as they might've been implying. And because of what you learned in the final episode, you end discovering MORE plot holes in the early episodes. Its pretty enjoyable. Anybody talking as if this show is going to win awards is fooling themselves. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Anybody talking as if this show is going to win awards is fooling themselves. Nah it makes no sense. Ghouls didn't exist prewar so this would have to be a medicine that would have been developed very early after the bombs fell to keep the main character cowboy actor without turning feral. Turning feral was due to deterioration to the brain. I'm at the episode where they go into vault 4 and explain what happened to shady sands. Another piece of lore I don't like, the NCR is bigger than just shady sands. Which is why they started expanding in New Vegas. I mean I don't mind the changes too much. This is still very entertaining. I don't think the script is perfect or anything. There's a lot of moments where they don't really know how to get characters out of a situation, there's so many coincidences of meeting up other characters, at the right place, at the right time, it's almost comical.

David P 40 Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 Alright that was good. I hated how the vault 4 storyline played out so I was worried the show would go downhill. It didn't, the ending is great. And shit they really went there. Can't believe they would bring so much elements from New Vegas. Last episode blew my nerdy Fallout fanboy mind. It ain't perfect but it's way better than anything I was expecting. Season 2 is going to be real interesting. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tears of the Cows 1,209 Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 (edited) Never played the games, but maybe I will now. Episode one was good. how close is it to the games? Assuming this is fallout 1’s story? Edited April 19 by Tears of the Cows Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Assuming this is fallout 1’s story? I think the TV show did amazing at making you feel like you were in the fallout world. Story is original but a lot of the stuff in the show is in the games. I didnt finish all of the FO games because the old ones, well...feel their age. Even FO4 and 76 feel dated. Id say play FO4, then 76. The FO nerds will say otherwise but the older games are mad dated. FO4 feels just like the TV show. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I did download 76 as it’s multiplayer Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's not the game it launched like. Im gonna jump back in to fallout 4 again too when the update hits. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
