First the Last of Us was a hit, and now it looks like we’ll have another good video game adaptation. Will you be checking out the Fallout season premiere, SW? I’ll probably check out the first episode.

He hasn't watched a single movie or show in over 10 years, and i am not about to watch Cricket match he recorded in 2007 either. I reject him no questions asked.

@hardwenzen: @SolidGame_basic: I think you 2 should get together and have an ip party since you love talking about me so much.

You can both wear your Sony pyjamas, solid can show you all his collectable dolls and wenzen can show you his mountain bike 🤣

I have said it before and I will say it again.

TV shows seem to be a much more successful format than movies are for video games. The pacing simply put works much better for a tv show format.

Arcane, CastleVania, TLOU and now Fallout.

I don't watch TV, pretty much at all... But I'm pretty excited to watch this show! I don't have really high expectations other than seeing how they make fallouts world come to life.

I watched it for 6 minutes before getting bored. Nonstop conjectures and personal feelings. Nothing concrete whatsoever.

The guy who made the video is not worth listening to. And the video only concerned Borderlands, a game franchise that was the victim of flanderization. Not whatever you imagine it to be.

If this is how you think, then its something that doesn't bother you, and if it doesn't, well, it explains everything cuz you're a vegan afterall😐

Having a standard of evidence? Not jumping to conclusions? Not falling for overly simplistic thinking?

Your video made nothing but asinine points. Such as complaining about a game made in LA has LA culture. What a pathetic display of media literacy there. The video was bad, and you should feel bad for citing it.

Movie trailers having a remix of a familiar song in them.

But to give an example of what I mean, besides it being in every single Marvel movie, here is the exact same thing in the Borderlands trailer:

At 2 minutes, and there is another 'lets do a joke right after we got shot at' a few seconds later.

But it's Bethesda era Fallout. Unless it's New Vegas (aka the Sonic Mania of Fallout), none of that matters to the FO fandom.

I've watched a couple of episodes. It's actually not bad, and I'm saying that as someone who hates Bethesda's interpretation of the setting.

It's pulpy and doesn't attempt to be wildly intellectual, but there's something to it. The lead actress does a good job selling naive earnestness, and Walton Goggins is always great as a gunslinging villain.

Just finished the first episode. It was unexpectedly good.

I really like how they have faith in the series, and I say that because the whole first episode is spent developing characters and lore for proper context in later episodes. It didn't feel rushed like Halo first few episodes.

The writing was also really good,

Episodes are an hour long so Ill have to watch the second later tonight but I'm really looking forward to it.

Also, great casting choices so far.

Managed to get half an episode in over lunch, honestly surprisingly entertaining, but from what I've seen Walton Goggins will likely steal every scene he's in. Also sound effects etc of things like stimpacks appear to be lifted directly out of the games.

Definitely agree.

There's a ton of moments of absolute fanservice in the game. Even the design of the stimpaks made me smile. Was a little upset by the gun she used in the beginning, should've been the Fallout 4 pistol for sure.

@SolidGame_basic: Wrestling came along before video games, Wrestlemania is not a TV adaptation of a video game.

Just when I thought it couldn't get any dumber from you solid you say this

"I can’t imagine just watching Cricket all day."

Watched 2 episodes. Really liking it so far. With Fallout, TLOU , Twisted Metal, and Gran Turismo, it seems the videogame movie adaptation curse has been broken! Except Halo... That show is sooo bad 🤢🤮

Watched the first episode. Kind of have mixed feelings about it. The beginning started off interesting and then things picked up too quickly. On a positive note, it felt very authentic to the game. Will watch the next episode.
