Same people who have seen the first episode gave “impressions” and they were all good.
Ella Purnell is a really fucking good actor, she’s gonna kill it. And supposedly it doesn’t really bother explaining stuff fans should know. Which is smart, new fans will just Google it and get lost in fallout lore
The issue I have is that its clearly only based on fallout 4 from the trailer. Despite being placed on the other side of the country in what should be the heart of the NCR.
And the NCR is the only confirmed actual functional government in the world of fallout. It’d be like making star wars and saying Coruscant is Tattooine.
It might be because I have only played a couple Fallout games so I don’t know the lore down to the specifics…but the New California Republic is based in California, and the TV series is also based in California. So how is that like saying one planet is another planet? And since it’s only 10 years after Fallout 4, I’m not surprised it looks more like Fallout 4 versus the other Fallout games.
Are you able to link me a screen cap of what a Brotherhood of Steel city should look like? The Fallout games I’ve played didn’t have any city that looked like it was terraformed, as far as I can remember - although the Brotherhood did have a better setup than most considering the situation. If there was a city or town, it still looked pretty badly damaged, similar to most cities in most post-apocalyptic games and shows. I tried looking it up myself, and I could only find images of aged, post apocalyptic looking, buildings. The trailer only showed a small clip, and it looked like a military base more than a city, to me…so it could be possible that they still have this city you’re talking about and we just haven’t seen it yet?
So now, from my understanding, the woke factor here is that the Brotherhood doesn’t reside in a clean, advanced looking, city in the show versus the game?
The issue is that it shows like a wasteland, but one of the things the NCR has is a GECK(deus ex machina that terraforms and cleans land.) Particularly in the cities, it would be a post-apocalyptic wasteland, but a living, bustling city full of ordinary people.
They have enough industry to make and maintain old world tech like Vertibirds, APCs and Tanks.

More seriously though, that depends a lot on how you define functional government. A lot of city states exist in both the northeast and southwest, with functional governments/democracies and the ability to project their influence beyond the walls of their city. It’s a bit more like the political climate of the dark ages.
The NCR is probably the biggest state with the widest reach, but at the full extent of the territory they claim, they have virtually no ability to project power. So it’s more like they can claim it’s theirs, and as long as nobody disputes it, it’s basically true.
The entire point of the Brotherhood is they’re the remenents of the US government and they want to become in charge of the country again…
The show is further in the future than any game, and the brotherhood has been trying for decades to become the government. It’s possible they have in that area since we saw it last.
Hell, off coast of Cali was their base. And the show is closer to the Pacific than Las Vegas.
I’m sorry are you confusing the Brotherhood with the Enclave? They’re both fascist, power armor equipped, douchebags but they’re still pretty distinct. The oil rig you’re referring to was definitely Enclave.
It takes a bit of time to warm up, but once it does, it’s pretty entertaining. It’s not some masterpiece, but it’s fun and ridiculous, and knows it is.
I’m cautiously optimistic! Twisted Metal surprised me, and maybe this will too!

All I know is, a certain group got incredibly triggered over the woke brotherhood and that means at least it has potential!
The Brotherhood of Steel is all about black heritage in this? Sounds fine to me.
What’s woke about the brotherhood in this series?

Idk what the post was about, but there is a “terra formed” city in F2, namely “Vault City”, created thanks to the G.E.C.K.

Maybe they got confused because the BoS is actually an US military remnant
People thought fallout 4 was good, so i’m not holding my breath
They have some great actors in the cast of WoT too but that was ruined by the producer’s D- fan fiction take on Jordans works.
Same. I’m ready for it to flop, but I am pretty excited for it.
I couldn’t get more than a few minutes into the first episode of TM. Maybe I’ll give it another go.
I really loved those games as a kid.
