Let me make a few things clear: 1. I am not praying on the downfall of this series if you actually pay attention to what I say in my reaction FULLY. 2. The girl-boss thing is simply a meme, not that deep 3. I fully understand the outfit thing, if you read my on-screen text in the edit / video 4. I know other series that drop all at once can be really good, if you listen, I acknowledge this 5. Please pay attention to my actual words, thanks for watching my legends

She's fresh from the vault, of course her clothes will be clean... like in the game

"And being based on Fallout, it has huge potential to be the greatest shit-show we've ever seen." You say that almost as if you're hoping that's the case, which is rather sad.

“Giving Rey Vibes” I-I just…eh, listen dudes, guys like this are fun to watch sometimes, just take everything they say with a grain of salt and ultimately think for yourself if you ever want to have a connection with a woman.

Vault dwellers by their nature would be naive. We play from their perspective because they're the player / audience's route into a different world. But it's a typical thing that the player racks up a body count and develops into a force of nature within the wasteland.

Goggins plays a Ghoul. Think radiation zombie but you still have your mind. Not all of them do keep it. Some are feral. Some are, well, slimier. He looks like a fallout 4 ghoul.

It is very fallout. I am huge fallout nerd fyi.

the main actress is the voice for jinx from arcane.

what we do know is this takes place 9 years after the events of fallout 4 but in the locations of fallout 1 and 2 ( shady sands, mariposa, the boneyard ) and we see the ncr at the Griffith observatory. I am super hyped for this.

They binge drop stranger things too lol

Dogmeat is in it too

Looks insanely interesting

From the trailer, the Vault Dweller (yes shes a female and probably has more than a few lines in the movie) is very innocent to the world outside the Vault and not badass. That seems to be more in line with your preference for female characters. She doesn't show much in the trailer because they basically just showed her in the Vault and outside of it at the beginning of her journey in basically an entire new world. Heck, it might as well be a different planet. I'm pretty certain there will be some character development and she will be more interesting over the course of 8 episodes vs a 3 minute trailer.

Bro is getting dragged through the comments, keeps backtracking his comments and trying to defend his bias. Man you started this video off with a tone and it showed, it shows throughout the entire video. Take your L

I think Lucy (girls' name) is going to evolve from a naive wide-eyed vault dweller into someone more hardened by the wasteland, but I don't expect she's going to start killing everyone like a super ninja. That's probably going to be more where the cowboy ghoul and the brotherhood of steel guy fit in.

"Nuka break" but that's fan made

I prefer weekly episodes. But, in this case, I see confidence. Fallout is so iconic

It looks super good to me

I'm kinda hopeful for this show tbh. Love fallout and really hope they do a good job

can we get legion in the series

Please be good, please be good, please be good.... 🤞 And I think it makes sense that her outfit looks kinda cheap, it is a mass product by Vault Tech, they had to make so many for all the people (and the following generations) in all the vaults....so I don't think it is some over the top high-quality stuff^^

Another day Another banger

I don’t think comparing a Fallout show to “Rings of Power” is a legitimate 1:1. For one, the Fallout show isn’t adapting any of the games, and takes place after the (chronologically) latest entry, Fallout 4. RoP, on the other hand, didn’t have the rights to adapt The Silmarrilion, so they ended up creating a hodgepodge of “original” lore to fill in the gaps of preestablished Tolkien lore, which ended up screwing up the tone of everything. Making Galadriel a flawless, stoic, lone-wolf warrior rather than a shrewd leader and politician is essentially character assassination to fulfill a modern power fantasy. They wanted a warrior when Galadriel is much more of a diplomat. I think being wary of a sequel series doesn’t lack legitimacy, though: the Star Wars sequels suffered from a protagonist succeeding without the trials a protagonist needs to become great, and the entire trilogy basically just retread the ground the original trilogy did. Nothing of merit was offered. But Fallout’s female protagonist may not suffer the fate of Galadriel and Rey, because thus far we haven’t seen her trouncing enemies left and right, in a world she hasn’t been trained for. Maybe she will know basic survival and how to shoot a gun, but that’s not much different than any female protagonist in a Fallout game before. And unlike RoP, which is basically a Medieval Europe themed show cast with a modern London population, the diversity of Fallout makes sense given the nuclear war takes place 50 years from our own future. And there’s the bonus of Jonathan Nolan working on it, he’s been a solid screenwriter. Though one of the writers is also a Captain Marvel writer, so…. Best tactic is to hope it’s an adequate adaptation and not be too quick to jump on the angry, anti-woke KZfaq grift train. Those channels are a dime a dozen these day. Be unique, not a collectivist

I agree, it could be a shit-show. BUT...I do like the look of it, I like the castings so far. Walton Goggins KILLS everything he does, and he looks damn good as Ghoul, I'll watch it just for him! This looks LITERALLY like the game, a fresh out of the vault baby thrown into a crazy CRAZY world. I do NOT think I am going to work the day after this drops, just sayin!!

My only concern, was from the interviews, and not the trailer. In the interviews, the production manager confirmed they are trying to replicate the game aesthetic and props to be as faithful as they can. The head writer however, said that Fallout would just be a backdrop for them to write their own narrative. This is concerning to me. But regardless, as of now, I find no issue with the trailer, the characters, or the teased story.

Ben Shapiro's Zoomer cousin.

The Silmarillion is an academic exercise and pretty dull the biggest problem with Rings of Power is the source material. Fallout on the other hand is one of the best video games for a live action TV show because there is no story it has to adhere to, yes they need to get the look, tone and lore writ large correct but they are not tied to any particular story because the games are all stand alone stories.

I thought her outfit looks great. Its a vault suite. It looks overly bright, cheap and corny just like the games. Plus she just left the vault which i know you mentioned. You can see her suit get dirtier and bloodier in certain scenes and i think thats a really cool way of showing her gradual change. At the end of the trailer Goggins calls her a killer and she's not wearing the suit anymore. I'm not sure where the girl boss thing comes from. I think its just a projection of the weird broader culture war going on. Apperantly its more realistic for a guy to kill a hundred people with his badass skills over a female doing that or something. I dont know. I grew up watching schlocky B action movies from the 80's and 90's where badass babes in skimpy outfits are killing ten or 20 dudes with their bare knuckles and smack talking that men cant do anything right. I guess im woke. Anyways i think the guy who wrote Westworld and The Dark Knight trilogy will kill it with Fallout, and having the studio behind The Boys, Invincible, and the best Phillip K. Dick adaptations ive ever seen only helps. ( LotR:RoP is the outlier, not the pattern )

Keep in my and in the games many people played as women. As you could make men and women characters.

(everyone disliked that)

Echo was great, but way to short.

Similar to the Borderlands movie, this could have done with coming out 4 or 5 years ago or thereabouts. Fallout 4 was 2015 - and the following few years were the peak of that IP. Both seem a little out of touch in 2024 to me. I mean, I enjoyed Fallout 4 but it's been donkey's years since it's been on my radar. Never bothered with the online sequel, like a lot of players. I guess I'm just not that interested in it any more, but I'll still watch it and see what it's like.

lol This guy

The same thing they did to LOTR and Wheel of Time. Putting a chick in it and making it gay and lame for 'modern audiences'. I'm hoping this will be good, but not holding my breath. The odds of us getting something like Emily Blunt in Edge of Tomorrow vs Brie Larson in anything else is low but we can at least hope.

As an OG Fallout player I'm stoked for this show. So far, the trailers are showing us some good stuff. No issue with a woman lead so long as it's not the "girl boss" they've been writing as of late which are really just female a-holes with no real character arc...from the trailers it looks like a naive woman leaves the vault only to learn what the outside world is really like them have to adapt to save it or something. It looks like it'll be good, my hopes are that it's not a woke mess but so far so good...

Firstttt

Bethesda ruined fallout already.

Honestly, I almost hope it sucks just because fanboy rage over the stupidest little things is one of my greatest joys. It's why I like telling people HALO was an awesome show (I never saw it, I never even played HALO) and that I thought the prequels were the best Star Wars until the news ones came out and they were even better.

Its obv from the trailer its going to be a shit show

excellent, i know a channel to avoid from now on, cheers and good luck
