Lucy = New player Maximus = Mid level player doing main quest The Ghoul = High level character playing the game for fun

To be fair, that Autocannon when the scientists escapes is probably more accurate than the In game ones lol.

“Thou shall get sidetracked by bulls**t every goddamn time.” It's hilarious because that's literally what makes Fallout so great, getting lost in so many side quests that by the time you get back to the main story you’re OP a hell!

The turret shooting at the doctor and dog is very thematically accurate meaning it sucks in game too

51:40 In pulling the squire out of the gulper, Maximus pulled it's stomach out, killing it.

I love the bits of the show that are blatantly just there as game mechanics. -Stimpacks healing any injury. -People always traveling in pairs. Lone wanderer and a companion baby. Doggie especially. -Showing the "perks" and "character stats" of Lucy at the beginning. Guns, Engineering, Athletics, etc And also, they didn't use any Vaults that were already used in the games. Because it's supposed to be the same lore just different times in the same timeline.

Lucy approaching diaper dude is an in-game meme - players usually don't put their weapons away when talking to NPCs. Absolutely brilliant. Also, many don't recognize the callback to the original isometric RPG game's surface dwellers that diaper dude represents. So, two fan services in one scene.

It's kind of funny that everyone I've seen reacting to episode two mentions Phillidelphia, but nobody seems to put together that Filly is called Filly because it's a landfill.

The weapon that shot the toy baby leg and other stuff is called the Junk Jet. A weapon found in Fallout 4 that uses all the random junk found in the game as ammunition.

Michael Emerson (the doctor) worked with show runner Jonathan Nolan on a great show called Person Of Interest a decade ago, he played a genius scientist who walked with a limp and had a Belgian Malinois to protect him. And for Fallout he played a genius scientist who walked with a limp and had a Belgian Malinois to protect him.🤣🤣🤣

That big turret is kind of meme because in games they often missed too at point blank :D

The fact that they were 3d printing props straight from the game files is outstanding attention to detail.

21:35 “they can’t have missed every single shot.” Honestly those things never hit anyone in the game. Lore accurate turrets xD

I love that stim packs heal straight away without any explanation, it shows that game mechanics can translate to drama if done right.

They selected a good set of characters to tell the story through. Lucy is a level 1 character played by a first-timer for the new fans identify with. Cooper is a level 50 character played by someone who has been playing since Fallout 1, running a Gunslinger build with Bloody Mess and Grim Reaper's Spirit, for all the old hands to identify with. (min)Max is a level 10 character played by a powergamer, who put all his points into combat stats, is definitely running Idiot Savant, and joined the Brotherhood for the weapons and armor. Dogmeat is one of the many cloned dogs that are your companion in all the numbered games. Always the goodest of bois.

29:02 outside of Fallout 4, which made their power drain really fast as a gameplay mechanic, the cell that powers the armor usually lasts about 500 years.

mary may not have played fallout, but i'm pretty sure her editor has! Fantastic job whomever you are!

I’m not a gamer, so the only thing I knew about Fallout before watching this series is that it would often get mentioned in comments when I watched RU-vid videos of songs from the 30’s, 40’s, and 50’s, because I love music from back then. I couldn’t figure out how those songs matched up with a post-nuclear apocalyptic future. I was a fan of The Last Of Us, but I really love this show! Lucy’s terrific, but Walton Goggins’ Ghoul/Cooper is just next level!

Something I havent seen anybody mention thats really funny, is that Maximus asked Titus if the tempered lining gives him more mobility. The tempered lining actually does quite the opposite, it makes the armor stronger and heavier.

They couldn't make a Fallout series/movie without Dogmeat being in it 🐕

To be fair, the water in the Ghoul's canteen was probably contaminated.

It's not common for vaults to be interconnected. They are usually stand alone. Theres more going on here then meets the eye. Stay tuned.

"She steals dads!" That's my favorite line in the whole show. Ghouls aren't technically zombies, they're more preserved due to high radiation.

I’m a fallout game fan. There are soo many lore jokes in the show. It’s actually even better than it seems. Game to tv shows, they nailed it. The games are light with very dark humour and darker seriousness. It’s as close to a masterpiece as it gets transferred from one media to another

Ive heard the over sized bags the squires carry are meant to symbolizes the players ability to carry way to much equipment in video games

My mom said it was a shame they didn't make a wedding gown out of a vault suit. Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue.

A couple clarifications, ghouls aren't zombies or undead. I'll just say radiation heals them rapidly.

Playing the games is not required. Everything is explained

Have fun delving in Mary. I only played some of Fallout 3, so I went in as a gamer but not a Fallout gamer fan. Part of the brilliant execution of the Fallout show is that they did the difficult balancing act of staying faithful to the game’s lore & to its fans while making it accessible & enjoyable for non-gamers & others to enjoy. That’s not easy to pull off as it usually is done terribly & ends up upsetting both sides of the aisle. They were able to please the hardcore fans & audience members who had no clue about anything related to the game. They crushed it.

5:39 "it just works"

Girl, your reaction and the edit are always great, loved the "you lost karma" one hahahahah

Oh my god I laughed so hard when you blurred Lucy's tranc gun like no one has ever seen a gun before

HAHA - the scientists delivery on that cyanide line was perfect - "it tasted like banana" I mean cmon its funny and dark, im glad at least a few reactors and yourself laughed at that outstanding line.. its meant to be funny :)

That was not a Vault that was a private fallout shelter.

The reason that the Doctor knows about the vaults is because he worked for the Enclave, the postwar remnants of the US government, who were working hand in hand with Vault Tec. He probably studied the vaults during his employment.

"What if he has to poo or wee?" What is that thing that the 'knight' keeps giving the squire and telling him to clean?

So happy you are starting this series!

I'm a huge fan of the Fallout games and I loved the show! Ella Purnell who plays Lucy really killed her role. The other actors were also great!

As a fan of the games and the lore this is the best video game adaptation to movie/ TV I have ever seen and 90% of what you see in the show you can see or do in the game

I was looking forward to your reaction Mary, glad you like the series 👍

I love the way you do reactions like this and how open you are to new shows. I only found your channel a couple of months ago after stumbling across your Expanse watch through and loved that (and your note taking). I have been enjoying catching up on you watching some of my favourite series and I am so excited to see you watching this. Massive fallout fan and nerd, loved the show and hope you do too. Don't worry about missing things or Easter eggs, just have fun!

Your knowledge of story telling makes your commentary so engaging. Loving this journey with you!

In the game, bottle caps, in particular Nuka-Cola bottle caps, serve as the world's currency. The technology and know how to create bottle caps was lost after the war, so bottle caps are one of the few pre-war items that cannot be counterfeited. Plus, Nuka-Cola produced so many billions of bottles of soda before the war that there can be no worry of there ever being a shortage of caps.

YES!!! So pumped for Mary's reaction to this. ❤

Leslie Uggams, who plays “Betty”, was a huge star in the 1960’s and 1970’s. Glad to see she’s still around.

This will surely be a great watch, love the 3 part format to. 🎉

hahaha good job editor, I laughed at the lost karma notif.

In the Mood is my favorite song of all time! Not many people know it so its cool that Mary knew it!

"the ghoul is awesome, I like him" *Stabs dogmeat "....I don't like him anymore..."

14:50 I thought this was so cool when I saw how they were drawing the images. Sending codes over the radio to indicate where in the grid each line/pixel needed to be drawn.

This show is so good definitely exceeded expectations. It’s so much better if you’ve played the games and they nailed a lot of the references and little Easter Eggs

I laughed so hard when the Yao Guai (bear) appears behind Knight Tidus after being a jerk to Maximus to check out the cave - Instant Karma 😂

Nice to see Blind Al thriving 200 years after the events of the Deadpool movies

I'm wearing my Feo, Fuerte y Formal T-shirt thanks to this show. It isn't true in my case, but it is a great funny conversation starter. Few commentators seam to realize how privileged Lucy is, so good on ya. But she does try to overcome her easy life with some empathy for others, sympathy is in short supply in the wasteland.

This entire show is an Easter Egg

Not I Love Lucy. This is Fallout. Also, Ella Purnell (Lucy) voices Jinx in Arcane.

21:40 Lucy was INCREDIBLY lucky that robot wasn't functioning. They would have insta-killed her.

Yes bottle caps are the currency in fallout. Originally trade was done in clean water but it's hard to carry a lot of it so they started using bottle caps since they were uard to replicate and easy to carry

The pup was protecting his master. So if you don't hurt the master dog won't hurt you.

Another amazing reaction Mary ❤❤😁😁.

From someone that's played all the games and loves the franchise. I think they did a good job striking a balance between catering to the fans of the games and making it accessible enough for someone that has little to no knowledge of the Fallout universe.

At first I thought that The Last of Us was the best video game adaptation ever, but Fallout, wow.

I went into it blind just like you, and by the last episode, they had hooked me and reeled me in so hard that I absolutely can't wait for season 2. LOL

iv been big fan of the fallout games from way back when it first come out in 1997 and ill take my hat off to the directors and writers, they did a amazing job, for someone like me we can see a ton of stuff we seen over the years, but if your a fallout virgin you dont feel lost watching the show, it makes sense for veterans and new people alike

Yes, more please. I binge watched this season in 3 days, I look forward to the rest of Mary's reactions.

32:38 Ghouls in Fallout are not undead. They are mutated living people.

its amazing this hasnt been taken down yet.

I Love Lucy was a great show. Lucille Ball and Desi Arnez were a great couple. And Fallout is also great, right up there on my list of favorite shows ever.

The suit uses nuclear power. It has a fusion cell, like a nuclear battery, that can run a very long time.

Fallout games have to be some of the best to ever release. The surrounding areas of the many main locations you get to explore like Washington D.C, Las Vegas, and Boston are amazing, strange, & scary when hearing the certain quests/lore from the NPC’s! Anybody here remember the PTSD from stumbling across Dead Wind Cavern? Lol or the chill of Far Harbor?

Funny thing - you kinda have the smile and aura of a voult dweller 😂

I have played around with the Fallout games since 1997. When I saw that this was going to be made tears came to eyes and I was like "Please don't suck. Please don't suck...." I love what what they did with it. Not only the look but also are whole story arc. No spoilers here but...... War. War never changes.

I like how its a riff of The Good the Bad and the Ugly

I'm obsessed with this show and Lucy 🔥🔥

Nice reaction Mary, series is a great adaptation. 🥰❤️‍🔥

Already on the best of the year list. So good

The power armor suits run on nuclear power, just like basically everything in their world. In the Fallout universe they focused heavily on atomic powered tech, so at this point they have small fusion cores that you can think of as basically like fusion batteries.

15:10 That was a dolls leg. One of the three guys was using a classic Fallout weapon called the 'junk jet' which uses junk you find in the wasteland for ammunition. The Fallout is wacky like that.

Enjoyin watching the episodes again with your reaction. 😊 this show is awesome! I've played the game haha. Cannot wait for season 2! 🙌🙌

Ok.. Some background. Fallout takes place in a parallel world where history went in a different direction after World War II. Some technologies advanced rapidly while others obviously didnt. This is why the TVs are black and white and film cameras are still in use. The opening scene takes place on October 23rd, 2077; The day the bombs dropped. Some humans when irradiated became ghouls, and they are effectively immortal.

4:30 That’s just a bomb shelter, it’s not a Vault.

I found out they filmed the coastal scenes in Namibia while watching an interview of Ella Purnell. And I don't know if they filmed in Australia, but they did say that the Ghoul actor, Walton Goggins, was bitten by a brown recluse during the filming.

7:50 .. it was the year 2077 when the bombs dropped-it's basically a different/alternative dimension/world to ours. They run everything on nuclear energy, and their computers are different. I think they have no internet, and their whole style is called 'retro-futurism,' meaning that some technology is WAY ahead of ours (like stimpacks and power armor), while the TVs, music, and clothing style are from our past.

W editor who added the bad karma lol couldn’t of been Mary since she never played

Baby leg is a doll leg and the weapon is seen later in Filly called a Junk Jet. bout 300 caps cost.

You mentioned watching Arcane which I thought was great! FYI: the crazy character Jinx was voiced by Ella Purnell

It's so much like the games. Original story and characters, but done like the game. I like how they introduced Lucy's stats like they do when you create a character. A companion in the game can always be healed with a stim, and they said the dog is a companion, so I wonder if it following those rules.

I love how despite the fact that you haven’t played the games you understand the video game logic that went into making the show!

Now you are young, to those of us growing up during The Cold War that intro is what we feared would happen- every day. But we lived our lives. When I teach my The History of The Cold War classes, I always start by showing them a five minute video of nuclear explosions with eerie music, to make your generation understand what it all was- and what you will have to get used to again with Putoloni's sabre-rattling (though he is too much of a coward to do it). During the Cold War, the USSR was planning to open the war by dropping 600+ merely on my little Denmark. The game is set in an alternative timeline, where the transistor was never invented, so everything used vacuum-tubes like early computers. And thus the timeline starts diverging from ours in the year after WW2, and progress is generally much slower. But there is also no Cuban Missile Crisis, Long Island, etc, and no reckoning with its past, so the US carries on in a sort of Truman-Eisenhower Superamerica with nuclear powered cars, etc. But in the 21st century fossil fuels and other resources starts running out, and The Resource Wars starts; where Europe, Africa and The Middle East is torn apart, and China invades Alaska to get the last remaining oil resource on the planet. And in 2077... Boom. And oh yea, the US turns authoritarian semi-Fascist, a bit like Starship Troopers. Anyway, think of the game and series as set in a sort of retro-futuriatic post apocalypse, IE a future as imagined in the fifties, but then add a nuclear exchange of superpowers. In the games you find all those tragic and dark stories as you explore the Wasteland, the series show them, but both do a very good job of what good SciFi should; holding up a dark mirror to humanity- and with Fallout it is really dark.

52:34 Monty and several of the raiders were ghouls. Depending on your definition of being alive, the ghouls are in fact alive and not at all undead. The people that become mutants are alive, but are suffering from degeneration. As they degenerate, the lose memory and identity until all that is left is a mindless animal who cant abide chickens (or humans). They all taste the same. To heal, they have to eat flesh and/or take a drug you inhale (like The Ghoul) that costs lots of caps to keep degeneration away which allows them to enjoy other food.

When Mary said "I would hate living in this world" when the radroach showed up, all I could think was you already kinda do, Australia 🇦🇺

21:17 The turret completely missing the scientist and the dog at close range is a nod to the more recent Fallout games where you can build those turrets for your own base defense, and they are horribly inaccurate and rather useless.

The suit runs on cold fusion. It's still theoretical at this point, but it would seemingly solve the world's energy problems if it ever developed to the point where it could become commonly used. Super cheap and efficient.

They really captured the spirit of the game. And added lots of the kind of twisted brand of humor the games are known for, as well as the "bloody mess" the games are notorious for as well.

"Can't have missed every single shot." Yeah, yeah it can. IFYKY 😉

So usually I just enjoy your videos and then carry on about my day without commenting.... But I had to comment today because oh my god MARY! that dress with the red lips YOU ATE IT LOOKS SO GOOD!!!

I can't believe they made this show so good❤i think this is the best video game adaptation tv show so far❤️🔥

15:09 In the game, there is a weapon called the "Junk Jet". It's like a portable jet engine, that fires pieces of junk, at high velocity.

Not sure if anyone has said this but actress who plays Lucy is the voice actress for Jynx in Arcane.
