Ella Purnell and Walter Goggins are legit good actors and are pretty much carrying the show on their backs.
The writing nails the vibe of the Fallout universe in the general sense, the problem is setting it on the west coast (where, y’know all the beloved Black Isle and Obsidian games are set). If they set it in Bethesda continuity locations on the east coast like Washington there would probably be fewer problems, since the show fits the tone of what Bethesda ended up doing anyway.
Because yeah messing with the earlier games open-ended endings feels wrong and ends up introducing some weird themes that I don’t think were intended.
I think they just expected the show to be clowned on or something. Makes sense when you look at Starfields writing.
it is clowned on just not by enough people
the show is poorly written FNV revisionist slop
but it is pretty tho so ill probably still watch it for the visuals alone

Edited: I got my american geography mixed up lol
The writing is so much better than Bethesda Slop. That’s probably why it was a hit.
