>"But you - of all people - dare to come here and stand before me, the mighty Caesar. What were you thinking?"what would be your response?
>>729430991Power fists make 100x more sense. Light enough to carry around as a personal defense weapon, and the only context he'd let anyone get close is in tight spaces where such a weapon would work fine.
>>729430991Are you making fun of Amazon? Fuck you, every true Fallout fan loves Amazon and their new canon.
>>729430991Why didn’t they get John Doman back for the role?
>>729431267It's obvious that this isn't the same Caesar you saw in New Vegas, but a new guy. They're going for an ending where everyone failed, and there's a new chaotic status quo. So Caesar and Lanius died off screen, to keep it somewhat in keeping with the game. They dont' want to contradict the game's events while also not endorsing any ending. It does make all the choices pointless though.
What even is the show timeline? Is this alternative happening parallel to the game or one where the events already happened?
>>729431332>It does make all the choices pointless though.That's funny in the meta narrative of war never changes but I doubt they thought of it like that
>>729431439Someone at Bethesda likely is copying Deus Ex Invisible war and having it so that all the endings happened to avoid canonizing one ending over another.
>>72943141810 years afterwards, where a new Vault Dweller goes out into the wastes and goes on a wacky adventure and rollercoaster ride.
>>729431528Yeah whatever I'm already mad they're sucking chink dick and making the war happen because of evil american corporations instead of a war over resources with china. At least have a decency to make it so chinese capital infected these corporations.
>>729430991Actually they're raiders with looted legion armors so it's brilliant writing, too complex for the maga chuds
>>729430991HE USED A POWER GLOVE. A POWER GLOVE. REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>729430991who is the showrunner for season 2? everything seems different and shittier this time around. also it's funny that once again a character people like (the Ghoul) is reduced to a faggot character who is literally emancipated in episode 1 and 2 of the new season because apparently to these companies people liking "badass" characters is wrong.
>>729430991>akumm that's the Chinese rifle
>>729430991Why does he look Brazilian?
I haven’t watched television in like 15 years.
>>729433707that's a tv show reaction image doe
>>729431150displacer glove was such a cool weapon, fuck fallout 4 for not including it
>>729430991But the Legion used gunsThey just didn't have many so most of the soldiers were giver melee weapons
>>729431150He has a brain tumor so its lore accurate retard
>>729434029I know. Still haven’t watched it.
>>729430991Another tourist outs themselves, the legion was never anti-gun, they use them all the time. Caesar even taught them how to use and maintain them.
>>729432863he didnt use a power fist he used a displacer glove because he knew how to repair it from being a follower of the apocalypse
>>729434590That’s not the point. Caesar wouldn’t need to carry a gun. His aura exudes presence alone.
>>729431150He didn't use a power fist holy shit can you guys actually play games instead of shit talking everything fuck off lmao
>>729434210No they had enough guns for everyone. Melee was just seen as terror tactic.
>>729433707>>729434551>i havent watched tv in 15 years or watched this show but im going to chime in for no reason anywayWhy
>>729430991John Cena had seen better days
>>729434590The entire point of Caesar's military hierarchy is that he gives shitty weapons, including firearms, to his main infantry, and better equipment the higher up the ranks they go. The aspiration of every initiate is to join the Praetorian Guard, who exclusively use fist weapons. That doesn't prohibit effective leaders, like centurions, from using firearms, nor does it prohibit them from using high-tech weaponry like lances. Frumentarii assassins regularly use sniper rifles to cleanly kill a target. Even Lanius uses incendiary grenades.The issue with the image is that, in-game, Caesar uses a displacer glove because he has to visually represent the apex of the Legion. If Praetorian Guards are the strongest soldiers in the Legion, then Caesar has to appear stronger than them, and be equipped with better weaponry than them. Hence, the displacer glove, one of the two non-unique unarmed weapons requiring a 100 unarmed skill, the other being the ballistic fist. The displacer glove, however, only requires a strength of 4, rather than the ballistic fist's 9; that helps highlight how Caesar's personal strength is superficial, rather than real.Giving him a firearm defeats the visual storytelling and ignores the grandstanding and hotdogging Caesar is performing non-stop.
>>729434737Because no one should have to sit through your slop, todd.
>>729435323no one has to.
>>729435395Then stop bitching that no one is watching this slop but still laughing at it.
>>729430991Fallout is a joke now for retarded normies to enjoy and buy plastic shitty toys of so who cares.
>>729435323Plenty of people like it otherwise nobody would be discussing it. If you don't like something then ignore it. Entering a thread about something you don't like just to seethe and cry is retarded.>>729435503If nobody was watching it then there wouldn't be a 2nd season
>>729435882This is true, except everything they posted. Anyone praising it are bots, anyone dissecting it are actual fans hoping to hear a friendly voice in the echoing darkness, and the entire television, film, streaming, and video game industries are money-laundering schemes for pedophiles.
>>729435503the posts announcing they hadn't watched tv were not laughing at this show. i'm amazed you lost the thread of an exchange 3 posts long. can you function at all in daily life?
>>729435950thank you for your service
>>729435882This is a thread for shitting on the FO tv show, why are you entering threads you don't like, nigger shill?
>>729435950>Anyone praising it are botsNobody here outright praises it though. I haven't seen anyone just blindly shilling it with zero criticisms. The problem is seething just because people like it in any capacity or watch it at all, then you start accusing everyone of being a jeet shill and it devolves into a culture war battle where the more people disagree with you, the more you think you're right.
>>729431332Courier sided with the legion in Amazon canon. Culkin has two bullet holes scars on his forehead.
>>729433707based
That dakka guy has to be one of the most annoying twitter users out there. wears board culture like a costume and claims to be an "old fag" when he was here for the '16 elections and fucked off. His opinions are retarded too
>>729434210they had enough guns, they just gave the lowest tribals melee guns as a sort of test and probably because those tribals didn't know how to properly operate weapons
>>729434737Because he is on /v/ and you posted retarded shit about /tv/ junk no one cares about here. Did you even think this through?
>>729435882>If nobody was watching it then there wouldn't be a 2nd seasonTell that to rings of power and half the Netflix catalog. Streaming has an edge games don't have where they can just gaslight viewer numbers and claim user retention was thanks to this one title out of millions on the app.
>>729437850>if you reply to the OP that means you are OP
>>729438346ESL or did you link the wrong post?
>>729438435>"you posted retarded /tv/ junk"
>>729438346>>729438554methinks you protest too much. after all: why care if anyone thinks you are OP?
>>729438764Just explaining in the lowest effort way possible.
>>729438862explaining what? That you dislike the OP so much you don't want people to think you are the same anonymous person? Shit man I hate this garbage too but that's kind of harsh way to feel to an OP you never met.
>>729439183You severely lack reading comprehension and I would like you to fuck off now
>>729439323You seem lacking yourself taking this bait and why do you want me to leave this thread? After all it's just (You) and me here. No one else cares about Todd's slop enough to post in this thread.
It's very sad realizing that the only reason they set this on the west coast and NV was because they were too fucking incompetent to come up with their own story and imagery and had to go through all the established beats for it to even resemble Fallout Like being charged to make a new story in the LOTR universe but instead of coming up with your own story in its corner of Middle-Earth, you have it be about hobbits, delivering a trinket, carrying it through kingdoms of elves and man, and having to bring it to Mordor while accompanied by a group of adventurers and a goblin-like creature The Star Wars sequels approach basically
>>729430991You look retarded
I will never understand why normalfags watch television. There's maybe like 3 or 4 great TV shows, maybe like 2 good ones, and the rest is fucking absolute pigslop.There's much more great movies and great (read: classic) literature than anything you get from TV.Television is for niggers.
/v/ - Video Games
>>729439647That's basically been modern storytelling for at least 20 years now. Familiarity sells, and the average normalfag loves familiarity and nostalgia.>The Star Wars sequels approach basicallyImplying the fucking prequels didn't take a similar approach el-o-el.
>>729439647TFA made 2 billion though, it's no wonder people have been trying to copy its success since. I'd say with Fallout S1 they succeeded.All you need is a few likeable characters, a whimsical light-hearted atmosphere, iconic imagery, 'cool' action set pieces and fast pacing as you retread familiar story beats.Good writing, good worldbuilding, consistency and originality are tertiary at best.

>>729439647No this show started out in LA because it was the most fitting and relevant place to explore the themes of the show. They ignored the fact the city had already appeared before in the games because it could barely be considered a full depiction.
>>729440637Cool but that doesn't explain why it needs to shit on everything NV established, if it has its own themes then it can invent its own location, factions, imagery etc to explore them with
>>729431150>Light enough to carry around as a personal defense weaponBoth power fist and an assault rifle weight the same
>>729431528yeah bethesda is copying invisible war with that....lmao /v/edditors
>>729439929>Implying the fucking prequels didn't take a similar approach el-o-el.I don't give a shit about the prequels but at least Lucas had the confidence to switch things up a bit instead of recreating ANH beat for beat, complete with cantina scene, Han Solo, jabbering robot buddy, Vader equivalent, death star destroying planets and then being destroyed itself etc
>>729430991i dont like it when people outside of 4chan use meme arrows to quote something
Making this show "canon" was the worst decision they could've made.
>>729439647it's actually because bethesda will make F5 set in the west coast so they need to bethesdify it with this first
>"
>>729444160they got blindsided by the popularity of the show and got caught with their pants down so they just started saying anything
>>729444160Why? I think it was the best decision they could've made."Canon" has always been meaningless, but now the retarded faggots who defend Bethesda lore rape will have to defend amazon slop as well. All is good.
>>729444160no one cares about bethesda's canon
>these are for you, courier
>>729444848They can't do anything interesting with New Vegas because they're scared of "disrespecting the canon" so now we just got all these made for tv characters being the poor man's version of their video game counterparts.
>>729431332It's a Yes Man ending somehow, just wait for it.
>>729430991Ignoring that he and all his guard use power fist weapons, I thought Caesar's entire character is 'I'm too smart for you'. He wouldn't use a gun in the first place.
>>729439848Twilight Zone and Deadwood alone are better than any literature written in the past 75 years.
If this is Caesar that would confirm a Legion ending where the Courier successfully removed his brain tumor. Though I doubt the writers know anything about the game.
>>729430991>nigcar
>>729430991Where did this idea that the legion never use guns come from?
>>729431206I'm trans btw if that matters
Why is he written as if he suddenly knows he's evil? Wouldn't it make for a more interesting antagonist if they gave him his own reasons for why he did what he did? He can be a bad guy without being written as if he himself thinks of himself as one.
