1. Blow open a vault door? You mean one of those massive, super-secure gates? vault doors are typically described as extremely robust and designed to withstand nuclear blasts. 2. Fallout series has not typically depicted vaults as being interconnected in this way. 3. Outerworld? That's another game, it's called The Wasteland. Besides that, good stuff.
Have only seen the first two episodes so far and not spoilering myself with the entire recap. But about your second point: You are right, it is not "typical" to have vaults that are connected like this. We have one example of two connected vaults with the case of vault 81. From the first two episodes, I presume that the experiment in this case is having two isolated societies devolop side by side, with the additional problem of genetic diversity, which forces them to exchange people from time to time. I can only theorize what the experiment was or what the "justification" towards the dwellers for these parallel vaults was. But I assume the latter was "If we have two societies that have little contact, then for example a plague can only destroy one of them and the second is a failsafe to rebuild the other and later america". As for the experiment, It could be one on the acceptance of arranged marriage due to genetic reasons. Or one about alieanation/integration effects of people that abandon their old life for a completely new society. Or many more. In a sense, there is not really a "typical" Vault regardless. The only thing they all share is that it is a fallout shelter with the a (regionally a bit differing) vault tec interior design. I thought about mentioning that there is an overseer, but there is at least one vault with 2 overseers. I would not be surprised if there is one with none, too. Like an experiment on anarchy or direct democracy or something like that.
1- They didn't, the one scene where they "blow up" a vault door was when they blow up the passage between Vault 33 and 32 so the dwellers couldn't chase them. 2- Only Vault 31, 32 and 33 were interconnected due to the experiment being conducted in there. Every vault had their own gimmick to test and experiment on their dwellers, the experiment on the show's vaults was to create the perfect managers and leaders to establish a new civilization on the surface. Vault 31 was full of management prospects from Vault-Tec and Vault 32 and 33 was their training grounds to prop up successors. 3- From their perspective, yes, the Wastes would be essentially a new planet, so Outerworld fits.
but now hear me out a zombie is a brain dead goul ...your not wrong but it just how you want to name a animated corps .. gouls are the undead their both alive an dead. The same as a zombie only difference is a person dies an becomes a zombie a person jst becomes a goul with no obvious sign to when the change started
@@PlutoniumOD i think u shld see the fallout 4 loading screen, they clearly stated that the are not zombies they are brain dead gouls. To become a zombie a person have to die, and the virus reanimates him. And for feral gouls their brain dies because of high radiation exposure. But they are not dead There is a big gap difference
If you have not already, definitly look up fallout new vegas. It has the game play of 3 together with the brilliant design and humor of fallout 1+2 (since it is the same dev-team).
18:52 Lore-wise the BOS would be far more Educated about Vaults. Also a Night of Radiation going into the Power Armor isn't even enough to cause long term Cancer.
Do you think we are in the video game adaptations ERA now? Comics movies are over saturated and diluted from the 2010s. It seems video game adaptations are getting great treatment now.
In the games, the VAULTS are all different with one similarity: all are really a means of (extremely unethical) experimentation. In the television series, Barb Howard (Cooper's wife) says she worked hard to get them into "one of the good [vaults].' By "good," she could have meant that whatever the social experiment, the living conditions were good. However, she may have been pointing out a disparity in the quality of the shielding of the vaults. Vault 4's inhabitants show evidence of (possibly-radiation-induced) mutation, but there are several other possible explanations, including that the original inhabitants of Vault 4 purposely induced mutation, that some vaulters were taken in from the Wasteland, that vaulters come and go from the vault, and that there is probably interbreeding between populations. We never see post-apocalypse Barb, but Cooper believes that she and his daughter, Janey, are still alive. He reveals that he believes that Hank MacLean knows of their whereabouts. The supermanager experiment (Vaults 31-33) was a "good" setup (for Vault-Tec execs) and Hank knows its whereabouts. It's possible that Vault 31 is Barb's and potentially Janey's location, if alive. Since Janey was with Cooper when the bombs initially fell (on Los Angeles), it is hard to say how he would not know of her whereabouts, but there is 200+ years of missing story. Moving on to Lucy. The fact that her father played a critical role in the bombing of Shady Sands (New California Republic capital) after it had successfully risen after the initial global devastation, clearly shakes her core beliefs. The series highlights for me are the character arcs of Lucy and Maximus, and the fact that Vault 4, free of their Vault-Tec experimenters, have developed a culture that (like the NCR) helps others and carries out what Lucy was taught the mission of her vault was supposed to be.
This is basically a Star Trek Next Generation episode called The Brinloidi, where one group of aliens is highly cultured and the other group is like backwater Irish Hillbillies but it all works out (as it always does in Star Trek episodes.)
The thing i dont understand is how didnt they know it was raiders on the other side? We learn that shelter 32 was destroyed long ago, yet the supervisor of vault 31 and 33 didnt know that raiders were there? While they were probably very aware of what happened in vault 32.
True plus everyone from vault 31 should have immediately known they were from the surface. Since they have knowledge of both vault 32 and 33, big plot hole.
I'm not sure who you are, but the service you provide is outstanding. I watched part of the first episode, and it wasn't really hitting, but I was curious. You satisfied my curiosity and in only 30 minutes! Subscribed for sure!
Boy, I just started reading "The Electric State" by Simon Stålenhag when I got directed to start watching this on Amazon! They are set in similar scenarios though not nearly as revolting and awesome as this! The Electric State is also being made into a Netflix movie this year!
Just finished watching and it was awesome. Amazon did such an incredible job with visuals and the details. I love the vintage yet futuristic look of the world before the bomb. Now I want to play fallout … lol can’t wait for the next season.
@@DoinkSmokers Unfortunately alot of people are ignoring that the show has basically nuked both literally and from lore wise, the west coast factions from NCR, Follower of the Apocalypse, West coast BoS and minor factions are no where to be seen making the west coast a devoid od civilisation as the east coast. Plus major changes the the BoS even more so from FO4, the BoS has lost all sense of Brotherhood. These now a "cure" for ghouls going feral (witch could have been a major story point). Shaddy Sands has been nuked before the 2nd battle for Hoover Dam (witch alone has massive consequences for FO:NV) and the capital of the NCR gone its difficult seeing the NCR surviving. Don't get it confused that die hard fans like myself are mad this happened, where mad this happened off screen carelessly. If the show was about nuking shaddy sands in 2296 instead of the late 2270's then things would be different. The show of itself is too cartoony and since the alot of "fans" started with FO4 or 76 its the only thene they are prepared to die on that hill, and worse will bring up special encounters/references as a "gotcha" move to misrepresente the FO franchise as being goofy an silly. Power Armor is a joke in the show as it looks weightless as we see BoS knights falling over to small explosives, being dragged down by 3 normal humans and the worst one is "the ghoul" revealed this "weakness" in power armor (not sure if its just the T-60) that under the chest pieces (cast steel chest pieces fyi) that these a wield that can one shot power armor, but when he does shoot the BoS knight it looks like he shot him in the upper chest or shoulder, 2 of the most armoured spot on the armor.
Anyone wondering if it’s worth the watch YES I’ve binged all 8 episodes already and can definitely say I’m hooked, hoping they continue the franchise they’ve managed to capture core aspects of the game but still keep the series entertaining for you to wanna watch more, 100% recommend
I practically only played Fallout 4 in VR and am currently watching the series.... in VR (Though just in movie-theatre mode), missing some of the immersion, but I love how well made the serie is. Great actors and very recognizable landscapes and cities.
In fallout if I saw 5 Knights in T-64 armour but no guns… damn that’s like wasteland Christmas. Fusion cores, armour, sellable BOS garments. Chi-ching baby.
i absolutely love how everybody in the comments are screeching and sniveling at the AI who created this video about how inaccurate it is at describing the show🤣
New vegas baby! Glad they went with the modern fallout and not the classic. These recaps always make the movies/shows seem better than they actually are. Can anyone tell me if this is actually worth watching?
Classic fallouts had a way better story line, the new ones are basic and lame af. "oh no we need water dad is scientist turn on water", "oh son kidnapped son is big evil wanting to make synths out of everyone", both of which are boring and only focus on one small storyline that doesn't affect the future of the whole of that part of America but rather a measley 50 people.
19:58 never played or watched, but I was just hit with this. Who’s to say this hasn’t actually happened in its own way. Doesn’t have to always be nukes but the idea that people went into hiding from a great cataclysm they stayed underground mainly while our history went on the surface. Just a thought. Who knows how many times this has or could have happened lost in the sands of time.
@@randallbesch2424It's called the passage of time and natural disasters, we have records of cities literally getting engulfed into the earth, hate to break it to you guys but the earth ain't eternal, theres no magic super advanced race hiding underneath it.
11:51 this part seems so random when a dog suddenly appears out of nowhere and decides to be a pet when they just finished fighting a sea beast, keeping a dead man’s head, and an overall stressful battle while trying to save an assistant
Because they narrated it as if it was a random dog. It's the same dog that accompanied the scientist and was already at the Gulper's lake, waiting for the head to return.
I would like to see Super Mutants, and Death Claws. Death Claws can make you lose bodily functions when encountered in a sewer tunnel, and all you have is a pop gun😆 Vegas will be fun.
Show is pretty darn good, its got dogmeat which proves the writers knew what we wanted. Only sad part is no deathclaw or super mutants, but season 2 should be even better
Having one character out of hundreds does NOT AT ALL mean they gave us what we wanted. This was trash just like all the unbelievable woke pos stuff out there
@Walrus570 Main character is a Mary Sue with ridiculous levels of plot armor. Case in point. Standing beside a fucking nuclear crater and just walks off like nothing was wrong.
@Walrus570 Not without soaking up a crapload of Rads. Only way to shrug that off is to have a ridiculous high END. Adding. In FO1, 2, 3 and NV. Nuclear craters were generally avoided by players because of the rads. Only in 4 and 76 were you able to just waltz on through.
so maclean and maldaver both knew each other. THEY WERE IN THE SAME BUILDINGS 200 YEARS AGO! why allow them into the vault knowing who and what she represents? why isnt anyone talking about this plot hole?
I haven't played the game so I'm not clear o the lore. If they were in the vaults 200 years, why are the ruins of civilization still so well preserved? Why are bodies still everywhere?
I'd assume the same reason the roman coluseum is still preserved and the bodies of pompei. also a lot of the buildings could have been rebuilt over time
Well you see in Fallout 1, 2 and New Vagas the NCR and other factions made great effort to rebuild from cleaning up, farms, clean water, power, some vehicles, army and all the things that a "modern" society would need, its only when Bethesda got the franchise is when stagnation of lore. We used to separate the West coast (creators of Fallout) to East coast where Bethesda games are taken place. In the game on the East coast its VERY noticeable that these been very little in the way of rebuild or even recovering from the Great Wars. Even after over 200 years these been no Factions or organizations that can hold a candle to the West coast, every "faction" on the East coast are city states. Put it like this if you asked how long since the Great Was was while being of the East side and is said 20yrs, these no reason to not believe it.
