The dead silence when the Fallout title came on screen is pretty telling. Everyone was rolling through the possibilities in their heads about just how mediocre, unimaginative, and unmemorable this will be after it doesn’t get renewed for a second season.
I don’t know, I’ve enjoyed Fallout ever since the first one and I’m looking forward to the show. It’s not like they have to follow a specific storyline from the games, just a new story in an established setting. Should be easy enough. If it’s good, more people will get into Fallout. If it’s bad, oh well, the games are still there.
I always, always hope that its good, but unfortunately 8/10 times, it tends to be a disservice to the franchise.
Could you imagine a Metal Gear TV / movie adaptation? I can’t imagine anyone could ever make that a descent representation of not only the content, but the people who are invested in it too, but I would love more than anything to be proven wrong.

Its crazy to me how companies can keep writing up these TV show adaptations, and get away with it.
90% of your target audience doesn’t want anything to do with it, and yet you keep making it.
