Did /tv/ enjoy the Fallout series? Did Kellogg ever show up?
>>222526802Frog poster
>>222526802Lucy should've been raped by the legion.
Never watched it but now I feel like playing one of the games. I think I'll load up whatever my last save of 4 is and see what retarded settlements I built.
why do the characters talk like modern day californians on twitter?
>>222527038why dont you play one of the good games instead like 1, 2 or NV?
>>222527086The writers are modern day Californians addicted to twitter.
>>222527006They were actually going to rape her until she revealed that she fucked her cousinThat gave them so much of an ick that they just crucified her instead
>>222527106Because I'd rather wait for the weekend when I don't have to go to work to start a proper playthrough of an actual good game.
>>222527086>>222527114This is how Fallout characters talk you tourists lmao
>>222526802The NCR was based on conservative America, the legion are literally communists lol
>>222527258not that, you retard. im talking about the incessant therapy-speak, sociology-speak and incessant mentioning of capitalism and shit.
>>222526802Why would Kellog show up? Im pretty sure the show takes place after he dies and he lives in Boston. I’d love to see the Sole Survivor from FO4 show up, but I doubt it will happen
>>222527122As if they would care and not immediately get her pregnant with twins.
>>222527286https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9UMWHx3RVmU
>>222527344Well, they clearly did. After she admitted to cousin-fucking, they left her on a cross to die
>>222527258Why do people even post this as an own? She's either wasted or perpetually hungover the entire game. Her dialogue is supposed to sound like a 3 AM drunk text.
>>222526802I couldn’t watch after the first episode
>>222526802
>>222526802Frog
>>222527310>I’d love to see the Sole Survivor from FO4 show up, but I doubt it will happenHe's coming, for sure.They wouldn't have emphasized this so much if they weren't foreshadowing that The Rake is Awake
>>222527397point to the part where he uses Tumblr buzzwords
>>222527448
>>222527086Why would they speak any differently?
>>222527397you are either purposefully misunderstanding me or just a very naive stupid person since you seem to not get what im saying at all.
>>222527448>s3 opens with a brief version of this scene again, Chet yelling "She's Canadian!" echoing>then the shot immediately pans 3,000 miles away to the Commonwealth>Nate frantically sits up in bed>Piper yawns, goes "What's wrong, Blue?">Nate just says "I have to go.">puts his boots on, checks his 10mm, bursts out the door>OH I'M THE TYPE OF GUY WHO WILL NEVER SETTLE DOWN
>>222527609KINO
>>222527448Was Nate there for the Annexation of Canada? I thought he served in Alaska with Coup
>>222527831Nate was in Alaska, Randall Clark was in Canada.
>>222527831The writer of Fallout 4 confirmed that was Nate in Fallout 1's opening cinematic
>>222526802I stopped halfway through season 2.Never really enjoyed it.
>>222527868It's good to keep in mind that the writer of Fallout 4 is a gigantic retarded asshole.
>>222527929and Nate's murderous hatred of Canada is his lone savant moment
It was right in front of us all along...
>>222526802Do they make shows like this solely for screenshots like this to go on social media? Legit question.
>>222528126and tiktok reels
>>222528126most shows nowadays are made in such a way that you only have to 40% pay attention to it as most people just browse their phones and/or keep it on a second monitor. its an actual noted thing within the writing rooms of a lot of these modern shows.
>>222526802Meh. It was alright.
>>222527929The plot of FO4 is basically >Todd watched Blade Runner and didn’t get itI think someone who actually knows what PKD’s books were about could make Nate into a very special character
>>222528126What this anon said:>>222528256Matt Damon of all people explained it. It's a Netflix mandate that bled into everything else.
>>222528602The most annoying thing about Bethesda's Fallouts is that they have some genuinely good concepts behind them, Bethesda is just far too shitty to make anything competent out of them. It's genuinely infuriating. DC and Boston were both great picks with lots of potential.
>>222526802I watched an episode and a half when my mom tried it and it bored the fuck out of me
>>222527086>>222527286If FONV came out in 2026 then they'd talk like the reddit twitteroids you hate. If you showed a 40 year old how FONV characters talked in 2010 they'd think it was insufferable too.
>>222528636I have no idea why people like the Bethesda Fallout games. 3 and 4 have the worst plots out of any AAA game I can remember.
>>222526802>hey remember the Kings? they're all dead!>ok next scene!
>>222526802it's kino
>>222527592based
>>222528688they're fun
>>222528688Tenpenny Tower is the most morally gray storyline ever written.
>>222531490heh
>>222526802Why are her eyes so massive?
>>222531666radiation magic
Aren't they supposed to write characters as if it's something the character would actually say and not the 35 year old writer posting on Bluesky?I'm glad I never watched season 2.
>>222531746Uhh they're speaking their truth to power chud. Educate yourself and do better.
>>2225271063 is the best.
>>222526802>corrupt nation on the verge of collapse>repeating the same process that lead to the end of the world>rotten to the bone "democracy" ruled by corrupt self-serving politicians and robber barons>who wipe out the competition by threatening and then killing them (see the entire crimson caravan questline)>sustaining itself on endless imperialist projects that don't benefit anyone except those at the top>incompetent military leadership that constantly gets their own soldiers killed and blatantly rewards favouritism instead of merit>who can only succeed by the courier's direct intervention, which then leads to quicker collapse because none of the underlying issues are addressed at all, and are instead emboldened>"vaguely problematic" I hate the Fallout show so much
>>222528602>I think someone who actually knows what PKD’s books were about could make Nate into a very special characterThey sort of tried that with Far Harbour but it was half-assed because the base game's story is so shitty.
>>222527258You're right except for Fallout 1. New Vegas unfortunately does this. Fallout 1 is still the most serious in the series and also has the best atmosphere. It's sad.
>>222526802The first season is alright, the second season is really bad with annoying plot contrivances, and a ridiculous amount of subplots which prevent there from being really any meaningful plot movement in any given episode.And, if you are a big fan of the games, the show is incredibly disappointing.Amazon's 'Fallout,' is not a show set in the Fallout universe, it's a show about 'Fallout' like very broadly.So instead of actually caring about the games lore and stories, following up on what previous games have world-built, the show just crams in as much random iconography as they can and makes a really confusing and bland story which feels forced to jam in as many iconic Fallout things as possible in one narrative. I couldn't finish Season 2.I was watching it with a friend and I was just way too annoyed about how the show dumbed down and made worse all of the interesting factions and setting of the games.
>>222532093based
>>222532695Oh I forgot how the second season also constantly throws in these terrible jokes which destroy the tension.Like, sure, the Fallout games have plenty of humor - but not when they are trying to be serious. The humor and the intense plot stuff are kept separate as they should be.The second season also introduces this really powerful, I guess in the show he's a villain, who instead of using his resources to get what he wants done through intermediaries (which would be in character) personally goes around killing people and spying on randos in men's bathrooms.
>>222532695>Perhaps I judged you too harshly
>>222532716>fallout 3 fans are raped fags who wear make upLmao ok
>>222526802...orion's belt...
>mitten squad never makes a cameothe real game hasn't even begun to begin yet
>>222532817NTA but Fallout 3 is actually one of the best RPGs Bethesda has ever created. There is so much roleplay potential if you see past the bad storyline, which is an issue in all Bethesda games since Morrowind. But chuds just hate on it because it was a remake of a cult classic that tried to appeal to a mainstream audience. Obviously NV mogs but Fallout 3 is comfy and gets far too much hate,especially for what came after it in terms of Bethesda Fallout.
>>222526802I'll never watch this show again after they had Lucy lecture the legion about how they were pronouncing "Caesar" wrong The writers of this show are fucking morons
>turning Fallout into a wacky comedyNo. How can I, as a viewer, take it seriously when the writers can't?
>>222533884>There is so much roleplay potential if you see past the bad storylineAhh yes, you can roleplay as Good Guy. Or Bad Guy.
>>222534516FO was a dark comedy since the first game zoom zoom.
>>222528688As overrated as it is, it's not entirely without merit.>Fallout 3I had fun running around the wasteland and finding shit. Did most of the quests mainly for the XP and gear, tried to ignore the writing. Once I was done with it I couldn't imagine playing it ever again. Stalled halfway into Point Lookout, never touched Mothership Zeta.>Fallout 4The Horizon overhaul mod turns it into an autistic survival scavenging game and expands greatly on the character progression and base building aspects. It's so fun and rewarding that over the years I've put more than a thousand hours into the game without ever completing the main storyline. Would never play unmodded again, though.>Bonus round: NVObviously narratively and aesthetically the best of the three. Finished it + DLCs twice, liked it, will never play it again largely because it's just as jank as FO3. I don't want to subject myself to either game's excessively clunky gameplay for one more minute.For some people, the promise of the Bethesda explore -> kill -> loot cycle is enough, and the writing is so inconsequential that you might just ignore it altogether.
>>222528688The Bethesda RPGs offer gameplay that nothing else but Cyberpunk has even attempted. There are no other AAA RPGs where you can just walk out of the tutorial and starting going wherever and talking to whoever. The writing is mediocre to bad and the combat is just bad, but it does allow a very high degree of freedom.
>>222526802First series was lukewarm, but pretty subversive and very obviously made by millennial faggots who “love fallout!” Aka played fallout 3/4 maybe some tranvegas and think its about le heckin capitalism. Goggins performance was okay, effects were shit.Second season was extremely shit Redditor trash that took everything fun with the first season and got rid of it, then they flanderised everyone, added fanservice while also raping the lore (thanks spiteful todd) then shovelling in niggers and women in every facet of every story.
>>222535041>AAACompletely meaningless distinction. Starfield is "AAA" despite being a broken shitty scam while Kingdom Come Deliverance (the first one) is "indie" despite offering a richer open world and much better game in general.
>>222534952The games had comedic moments. It wasn't one long joke. The writers of the show don't care about tone.
>>222535102My point is that almost no games even attempt the degree of freedom you get in Bethesda games, which is why people like them. I only mentioned AAA because only games of that budget can make games of the scope and fidelity. KCD cost ~36 million to make.
>>222535310>KCD cost ~36 million to make.Yeah and it's better free open world than the AAA Bethesda title with $400M budget (Starfield). You can even compare modern Ubishits like Far Cry and Asscreed to what Bethesda makes. The worlds are very open but the game is very shit.
>>222534830Nta but yeah, that's why the karma system is there, compare that to F4, which eliminated the karma system in favor of bootleg reputation system. NV had karma and reputation system.
>>222532817F3 is unique because Bethesda never attempted to create another game like it. Skyrim was more simplified than Oblivion and F4 feels more like a soft reboot than a proper sequel, even the aesthetic and feeling of Adamowicz was completely removed.F3 had a solid formula that could be improved, which is exactly what Obsidian did with NV.
