Odine Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 I'm two episodes in. It's light fun, though there are things I don't like and things I do. But overall it's a bit better than I thought. It's a bit too silly for my tastes. I started fallout with the OG in 1997 and fallout 2 was my fav for many years. Both had very comedic moments but the overall vibe was not slapstick silliness. But so far the show is kinda fun, albeit far too silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamevet Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 I'll have to check it out. I absolutely loved playing Fallout 3, New Vegas and Fallout 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tank Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 Tonally it’s all over the map and def silly— but it won me over as a fan of the games. They stayed true to game lore even more than Last of Us did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoLA Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 Watched the first 5 episodes so far, I love it! I've only ever played Fallout 4, so that's all I have to go off of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odine Posted April 16 Author Share Posted April 16 Just finished it, finale was pretty good. All set up for a second season. I think I enjoyed the sets and the props and the world stuff best. Story was okay, but overall really fun and brutal. A lot better than the Witcher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue 3 Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 Watched the first 4 last night and enjoyed them a lot! They have nailed the world of the games so well. Looking forward to watching the rest! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoLA Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 Finished it! One of the better game adaptations. Between this, Last of Us and Twisted Metal, video game series are on a roll! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tank Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 Maybe now that AAA games have better writing, and we have adaptions that are actually good, Hollywood execs will stop thinking they need to completely rework games to adapt them. Last of Us was a 1:1 (ish) remake while Fallout was original but as true to game lore and design as possible. That's the way to go. Now lets manifest me getting to do Mass Effect.

Gamevet Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 I finally got to sit down and watch the 1st two episodes. I'm enjoying it so far. I will say though, when our imposter Paladin showed up in Diamond City (the score board was seen when they entered), it felt very much like when Finn met Ray. I didn't hate on it. It was probably one of the funnier moments from that travesty of a trilogy. I'm hearing that Bethesda is going to give a free patch to Fallout 4, that will make the game 4K ready on the PS5 and Series X. Now to decide which console I need to get a copy for. I got rid of my PS4 version, after 100% completion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tank Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Maximus is VERY Finn. I thought this multiple times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue 3 Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Yes, I saw that similarity to the scene on Jakku with Finn as well. Watched 3 more last night, so just the last one to go! It was way too late to squeeze it in yesterday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamevet Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 Anyone try calling the Vault number? I’m at episode 6 now. There’s so many references and objects that give the nod to pop culture and games. The guys sitting in front of the television was such a Beavis and Butthead homage. Episode 7 starts out with Ponchorello, from Chips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
