Then the Writing, the Directing and the Acting ruins it. So many new movies suck. Because the Acting and Directing sucked so bad. It was like they was reading for the first time from the Teleprompter or saw those lines for the first time.
It's the front runners of Westworld, which is basically an acclaimed show by Fans and Critics. This isn't some hack, fresh from College team. If you go look at the works of alot of the writers, its crazy the pedigree it has. Writers from Game of Thrones, Community, Portlandia, Wormwood, Westworld, the Office, Silicon Valley. It's a mix of comedy shows and dramas, which kinda fits Fallout.
@@SlocumJoe7740 You misunderstand my concern. I'm not worried about the quality of the WRITERS. In fact; I'm more worried BGS will use the show as a platform to make convenient alterations to lore they had no part in to pave the way for some future game set in San Francisco or wherever. I'm sure the writing will generally be good (although not all the writing on shows like Westworld and GOT was all that great) - it's the way they decide to treat the source material that is my biggest concern. From a visual standpoint, everything looks phenomenal. I just hope the writing is as close to Fallout as the set/costume/location design seems to be.
@@S14N9LSthis comment sums up most of my feelings towards the show. Im sure it'll have good acting and everything but its clear to me this show is already pissing on the lore of new vegas
IT would be cool if one of the main characters saves a dude in a trench coat and hat during a big raid of some kind in one of the towns. It isn't dwelled on very long, but a few episodes later that person saves the main character that saved them with a stealth shot with a scoped revolver.
Dont have your hopes high, that would be high investment, financially, for ANY vfx team to work on. The showrunners have dozens of interviews out now that state, "we left stuff out, but will definitely bring it to season 2, if this is a success."
@@zknation8563 oooooo Tru. That's actually a really decent question. I'd go with F1-2 or F4 before NV. Though I still think if the show continues there will be more nods. Maybe even the return of the NCR by the end of s1
Dude I stopped and screenshotted it because it was so ominous. I'm so excited to see the day the bombs drop from Cooper Howard's perspective. Super creepy
im going to ruin this for you right now to save you some time...the writer of the show wrote the marvels and liana ruppert is apart of this show and she is a flaming anti white racist and anti male sexist...look her up and the terrible tweets she puts out...theyre making the brotherhood christians and bad guys...its going to be woke...the more i dig deep about this project the more i see how many of these woke dei racists theyve hired to work on it
It’s fascinating the fact we all used to be so optimistic of games and movies but now all the comments are “I hope this is good” It’s completely valid and I agree please don’t let us down
Just remember, like many other media to TV adaptions, it is meant for TV audiences. Expect certain lore to not be brought up, ignored or outright retconned in order to make a more interesting show. I dont say this to be negative, but rather diplomatic. Expect, and accept that it might not get your favorite parts correct as a fan of the series because ut ultimately has to tell a cohesive and engaging story for TV.
Thank you Bethesda for honoring the Fallout material so meticulously. This is by far the best game to TV adaptation EVER done. I just hope we get MANY more seasons and get to see these characters in future Fallout games ;)
@@Russelshackleford He made this once great franchise infantile and casual so the tik-tok zoomer zombies can enjoy it. "Big" is a very, very subjective term.
@@JuanPerez002 "like I say"? That is objectively true. It isn't debatable. Compare NV/FO3 to FO4 and tell me with a strait face the game mechanics have JUST as much depth between the two.
@@sw-gswhen the lowest denominator is a console with oddly specific specs to run appropriately, then the optimization goes for that denominator, the game does better on pc with mods, sure, but the optimizations are things the devs need to keep in mind while developing, it's still a console centric development process. Otherwise, people wouldn't be complaining so much that consoles are holding back pc's.
@@TheDrsalvation Sure. But the franchise was created for PC, and PC is the only platform you can play all of the games. So it is kinda weird to use "console". I think it would be more fitting to use something more platform agnostic. BTW. It really isn't consoles holding back PCs, but common people´s economy in general. If consoles weren't a thing, developers would still need to take into account weak/cheap PC's when developing their games. Which they do when dealing with PC only titles. So, in that sense, one could argue consoles do improve the lowest denominator, as consoles tend to be more powerful than PCs that cost the same.
@@igorokinamujika2073 But not Fallout 3, 4 and 76 which were developed first for consoles and ported to PC (which was cause for fatal optimalization), only New Vegas was developed for PC first then ported consoles and release at the same time.
Amazon typically releases one episode per week. A show would get more engagement online that way, and people stay subscribed for longer. With Fallout, it kinda look like they have no confidence in this show.
Cautious optimism aside, I believe this show will truly embody and excel in depicting what fallout is about. It looks extremely inspired and akin to the true vision of both the original and bethesda titles, haven't been this engaged and excited for a film or series for a long time. The passion from all involved speaks volumes.
@@tonybaloney8401 what gives you that impression? Sure a lot of the aesthetic is shared with fallout 4 (sweet ass power armour and ugly ass assault rifle designs) but I’d put that down to a consistency factor that TH wants to maintain for the next game entry. This is an independent project from FO4 with professional screenwriters - one of two has played FO 1 & 2 - and a much more professional cast of writers that are fully capable and dedicated to putting out a cohesive narrative. Your point is reductive. I’m hopeful we’ll see a return to form to the grit of the OGs with the charm we’ve come to expect from the IP. Either way, neither of us will know for sure until it drops. 🤷🏻♂️
Totally agree, very excited for the show and the boost of interest into the fallout universe that'll come with if it's a hit. (Please Todd give us another NV tie-in before Fallout 5)
This show spared no expense with the amazing visuals. There was a shot in the show where this orange monster leaps in slow motion out of the water in bright daylight, and it was such an amazing VFX shot. It was so real looking you felt like you could reach out and touch it.
Just look at the Halo show for what happens when the people behind it never looked at the source material, the show felt like it was written by an AI algorithm.
I rarely have much hope for game to TV/movie adaptations, just because there's been so many bad ones. But, this one looks like it might actually be good, and I'm looking forward to seeing it.
This show is the reason that I have kept my Prime membership. Thanks for helping them put it together, Bethesda. I am a huge fan of the IP, and it already looks so good. Thank you for your life's work guys, and thank you for posting this awesome vid.
I'm guessing the Vault 33 experiment was seeing how they'd react to meeting a new vault (32). Maybe Lucy is supposed to marry the other overseer's son or something?
My take on it is that the Vault goes FULL PURGE every now and again. The friendly pregnant friend goes cyclical with a fork in her eye, then is perfectly friendly later with a newly patched eye, and also later with a long term eye patch. I'm interested to find out what the experiment really is.
I don't understand the whole vault experiment thing. Who's collecting that data and making use of it? Or even getting a sense of entertainment from it. Seems like they're all separated. Unless there's some main vault out there that collects the data from the experiments it doesn't really make sense to me.
@@oddgoblin1400 I think the answer is that Vault Tec came up with ideas and sold them without thinking of the outcome. I think they cribbed the idea from CUBE. A group came up with a model. The Government paid, the model got built, but there was no follow-up. A dead end enterprise.
PLEASE don't be bad like most things these days. EDIT: 2:37 "This series continues to build on the world of Fallout rather than changing it." YES, that is exactly what we want to hear. I wish the Halo show knew this.
Me and a friend watched the series in two nights through. We weren't disappointed, we felt like "yeah, this is Fallout". We're looking towards season 2. Good job Todd and team.
Look, Bethesda: We are excited for this show, but we are also worried. You say that they are sweating every pixel of the show, but are they really? We just dont want this to end up being like the Halo show: no lore continuity, bad editing mistakes, taking the heroism out of the show. Please, keep the show as true to Fallout as humanly possible. We are rooting for you.
Well considering different people have about 15 different sometimes contradicting reasons as to what makes Fallout, people will be upset no matter what.
I'm optimistic, there's so much riding on this no doubt everyone tried their hardest to make this an amazing show. Been a fallout fan for a decade, much love everyone!
I’m so happy to see the Bethesda team is actually putting in work to help with the show, unlike some other shows based from video games, I have high hopes for this series!😁
@@maxgarz8576 Which xbox are you playing on? It runs great on the series x but I hear there are some issues on the S. Also mods can heavily disrupt the workings, best to eliminate problematic ones if your game straight up isn't functioning.
@@fin._.7661 I am playing on Series X. I don't have any mods because I have litterally installed it vanilla, but as soon as I try to play, it cannot go beyond the loading menu. I have tried to eliminate it, reinstall, even refound and re-buy it but nothing, same problem :(
Tbh the only thing I want out of a next gen update is a larger mod cap and Starfields improved weapon handling. Game looks fine to me, but I'd like to be able to run more mods than Sim Settlments 2 on my console.
I’m optimistic, but I have little faith in Amazon, and of course, everything in this tv show is not canon. Don’t care what Bethesda says. They doing this before bombs crap, ruining continuity because they don’t want to compete with the better storyline of obsidian.
Fallout is one of my favorite video game series! So excited for the Fallout Amazon Prime series, it looks to capture the feel of the games perfectly, they nailed the look of Brotherhood of Steel Power Armor. 😊
Nyeah, and Shady Sands looks like ruined, and that junk village is inside the Boneyard, and it is like neither San Diego, nor Necropolis, nor New Reno, nor Hub, nor San Francisco, hell, not even the Glow (it shall be visible from the Boneyard at nights) exists here
Even though Bethesda has made some shitty stuff the past like 7 years, I am very hyped for this show because of how it's being made by actual fans of the franchise
Absolutely fantastic.. having worked in the film industry for many years I can appreciate the amount of work that must have gone into this.. As an elder scrolls fan, PLEASE copy this formula to bring ES to the screen maybe as a series like the Witcher did.. 100% will have a HUGE following!
