Looks like all the other threads went to archive. Season drops tomorrow at 6pm PST. I'm sure it'll have some shit that annoys me, but I'm looking forward to checking it out.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By somedude: I liked it, but people who have not played the game might have missed out on some of the parts. The second episode preview might fill in some blanks. It was not perfect, but considering how most of the other films from video games have gone, it was decent. Yes, most other films and TV shows are garbage, but as long as we keep giving them money they're going to keep shoving this crap down our throats. I've been to the theater three times in the past five years, and one of those was to see Wrath of Khan. I don't subscribe to any streaming service other than prime video, which I almost never use. I pretty much just watch older movies and TV shows. If enough of us conservatives only watch media worth good value, then the free market will provide for us. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By superjc: Overall liked it, but the dumbed-down fantastic shootout scenes REALLY drug it down... and when the guy ran past the sentry gun (rotating barrel minigun type thing) and all the shots missed from about 30 feet away.... ugh facepalm... cartoonish pretty much the gun battles in the games, especially with Bloody Mess perk. It's supposed to be goofy/cartoonish |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By TaskForce: Thanks. I figured because that made more sense. Otherwise it would be way too forced for actual dialogue in the show. For the record, I can easily square the existence of a tranny character in Fallout. Even in the Brotherhood of Steel or other factions. The wasteland is a VERY wacky place where basically anything can and will happen. As long as it's not too forced or preachy I'm OK with it.

You can tell who has played Fallout before. You can be whoever the hell you want to be. I guess they're disappointed that people besides heterosexual white folks in monogamous relationships have survived. |

Oh just wait. The fun appears. Kharn that gives me hope. i almost turned it off when 'war never changes' didn't make an appearance in ep1. |

Didn't play the games a lot, more just hanging out with my kids as they played but I did play enough to understand some of the story line. I always like this dystopian kind of story line so I hoped they wouldn't wokify this show. Which they are doing.
