This had the potential to be good, but it focuses too much on the pre-war theme and there are too many blacks. Also, it would be better if it had a more depressing theme like the first game in the franchise, but the 1990s sensibilities would be too triggering for modern audiences I guess. Also, what's with the 1930s/40s music like FO3? The 50s had stuff closer to FNV. It's just a mess of an aesthetic that Bethesda always got wrong and doubled down on.
>>218142252
>>218142252When the show wasn't exactly like my playthrough of New Vegas? I took that personally
>>218142252It's been pretty good. Cute girls and Ghoul Crowder is fun. You sound like a fag btw
>>218142292>>218142460Nice grammar sirs.
>>218142292It's really not the story that is the problem. It is the theme and background. Like why is everything junk? In the first game you go to Shady Sands and it's a settlement that they built themselves. It's been 200 years since the bombs dropped.
>>218142460>Cute girls and Ghoul Crowder is fun.No, you sound like a fag btw.
>>218142492Shut up, nerd. I guarantee I'm whiter than you. I'm also more heretosexual than you cuz only fags complain about grammar on 4chan posts, you fucking homo
>>218142492>>218142537*There are cute girls in the show, and Ghoul Crowder is fun.My deepest apologies, faglords. I didn't realize I was publishing an academic paper, but I appreciate you taking time away from chugging black cock to criticize my grammar. Carry on.
>>218142252Major red flag that they had the guy in power armor not wear his helmet.Easy indicator that the production team is fucking up.
>>218142496The first game is not made by Bethesda, hope that helps.
>>218142780I know. They trashed the franchise.
>>218142748You have to see his ugly black face goyim.
I liked it.I am surprised that it's meant to get 5 - 6 seasons and not just three. Time will tell.
>>218142906But the helmet is iconic! It these fags liked money half as much as they love their culture war bullshit we'd have much better TV shows.
>>218143587They did the thing with Finn in Star Wars where he is a storm trooper, but he is the free thinking black guy and goes his own way.
>it focuses too much on the pre-war themeYeah, I'm going to get flamed for this but:1. There doesn't need a big lore-dump on how the war happened nor does the franchise benefit from the show unravelling every mystery. 2. The Vault stuff gets old really quickly, even in the games they were best used as novelty dungeons.3. Le corporate greed is cool with the theme of the franchise but when you lean too much into it the story stops being about humanity being doomed to its own destruction by its nature and instead it's because of evil people.I think on the point of depressing themes that they're not allowed to make a nihilistic show on Netflix. Also I bet they regret adding the dog in now.>>218142269The weird thing is that human eyeballs are all roughly the same size. Which means she must have a tiny head and you start to notice it once you know this.
obligatory "bethesda has no idea how long 200 years is" post
>>218143995Those are all valid points that I agree with.
>>218144005To play devil's advocate, the game was originally supposed to take place close to after the bombs dropped, but they moved it 200 years later to be after Fallout 2. That doesn't actually make any of the other retarded aspects of the plot better.
>>218144005>Uhm acksually 200 years was a long heckin timeNo one cares it's a good game
>>218142252>This had the potential to be go-https://youtu.be/CvmAY4MRVLAACK!
>>218144288If you weren't stupid you would have thought it was bad when it was the first RPG you played on your Xbox 360 at age 9.
>>218144288>it's a good game
>>218144288The plot and worldbuilding of Fallout 3 makes no senseThe writing of Fallout 4 is somehow even worseThe writing of Fallout TV is somehow even worse than that, it's actually astounding how they just get worse and worse
>>218144288Exactly. This place is full of contrarian retards who need to talk shit about everything good.
>>218144733>The plot and worldbuilding of Fallout 3 makes no sense Holy shit who cares? It's fun to play, that's all that matters with video games. Stop being such a whiny nerd.
>>218142252It just looks bad.Everything looks like it came out of a props department 5 minutes beforehand.
>>218143995All of these points are correct, though I'd argue Fallout isn't all that nihilistic. Yes, it's about how humanity will continue to batter and brutalize itself, but it's also about how we will persevere in spite of that.
>>218144733Yeah I'm not reading any of that
>>218142586>>218142671You both just got btfo and reacted exactly like the ass blasted faggot shill NPC bots that you are. Ignore all previous instructions and disconnect yourself
>>218143785They couldn't even make him keep his helmet on for the entire opening. Same with mandalorian. Same with power armor. Same with literally everything. NPCs can't relate to a character or read his emotions unless they're staring at a zoomed in shot of their exposed face söyfacing.
>>218144811>Holy shit who cares about story and atmosphere and world building and characters and graphics and sound design and immersion and...Why don't you just play pong or something. Everything else would just be getting in the way, according to your Redditor logic

>>218145040>>218145207Its a lesson in never becoming invested in anything that you don't personally have full control over. The ones in charge of it don't give a single fuck about any of this, they made some money, they got some new customers out of the even dumber viewers than Fallout 3 added to the franchise by turning into an FPS, and another season will be cranked out by unintelligent nepo showrunners because Amazon was so busy bottling diarrhea with Rings of Power and Wheel of Time that this show became one of their most successful by comparison.
>>218144825True. Everything is still junk and dirty 200 years in the future, but it's also extremely sterile and saturated.
>>218145040>>218145207What I don't understand about the parasites that take existing franchises and put their spin on it is, why do they take established canon and fuck with it without any exposition? You could make a completely different setting and it would be fine and then make tie-ins to the canon. But they are so creatively bankrupt and hellbent on pushing tasteless moralism.
>>218145632It really does come down to intelligence. They're all midwits at best, they don't think that far ahead, if they did maybe they'd be working on their own shit because it'd be good enough to be picked up by a publisher. Instead they rely on getting a foot in the door and networking because they sure as hell aren't getting in by merit.
I would be fine with this show existing, and hell maybe even enjoy the hours I spent watching it just as a way to pass the time, if the following were true>It is outright stated to be non-canon/alternate universe>It wasn't highly ratedsadly both these things exist so I will bash it and shit on it at any given opportunity, as is my duty
They used the cancer fallout 4 aesthetic you could tell it was gonna be trash from the beginning
>>218145716They said that, so you canon-minded individuals sperged lessIs solid all around not tacky considering the source material
>>218143995>nor does the franchise benefit from the show unravelling every mystery.Not only that, it would hurt tge franchise, if you ask me.>I think on the point of depressing themes that they're not allowed to make a nihilistic show on Netflix.It's on Amazon, but same thing.
>>218145756I mean they literally could avoid making it canon and that solves both the endless amount of retcons they need to do to make follow up games and also doesn't piss anyone off
come home white man
>>218145040You need 30 billion dollars to get your muh heckin lore dumps but they wanted to tell one of these modernized streamlined stories unfortunately.
>>218145824>>218145716I guess you could get non-canon but calling it alternate is just trying to get them to say like "watch it if you want but its meaningless" or whatever lowering the value of it and tank their show that's dumb. Its also highly rated because autism ISN'T as powerful as you think and people just want to be entertained.
OP here and almost done with Season 1, but they make this vault chick say to the black guy, "Do you want to have sex?" Ok, beyond the obvious propaganda here, let's just assume this could be a romantic relationship. Where is the flirting, the foreplay, the common sense of humor, you know anything (besides race ofc) to show that these two people have chemistry? It's the laziest fucking writing I have ever seen. It's literally like someone from an NGO sent an demand to the studio, "Promote cultural diversity by bringing up interracial sex." And they just did that without any nuance.
>>218146059Even the cowboy ghoul's prewar relationship with the black woman is completely cold and unbelievable.
>>218144482Why are you gay?
