Hope you make it through the series. It is incredible and so well written. I cannot say the next seven episodes together are much less gruesome but a few are and none are significantly more gruesome. The show reflects the level of violence in the games (all of which I’ve played). Great reaction!

Thank you so much! We are glad it's faithful to the game, it looks like it's violent but exciting at the same time 😁

It's definitely a lot for people who have not played the games. The story is what pulls people in, and the violence is simply the grit of reality in all humanity. And the choices you make, in games anyway, define who you are. Very few games let you do that. And this show represents it very well through different character plots.

Sounds like a cool game! We're glad it got adapted properly

In the games you explore a bleak wasteland full of skeletons and stories. But the weird thing is that people are still surviving and although some are ruthless raiders many are normal people and some are even good people. You find community and love and hope amond the danger and death and loss and it's deeply beautiful. Welcome to 2296!

Welcome to Fallout. Its based on a video game in a retro future world with sometimes a dark sense of humor. The needle Lucy took is the in game healing item called a stimpak, it can heal some pretty rough things including stabbing. You will find out lot as you watch it and figure things out, it is by the same guy who wrote the movie Interstellar.

unnecessarily excessive violence is a big part of the fallout. Maybe it helps that no one in the show actually lived, we see an alternative world history in which the bombs fall in 2077 and humanity is almost wiped out. I hope you have fun despite the brutal violence, the sets, the cast, the soundtrack, it's all too beautiful to be ruined by a few exploding or sawn-off heads

The pip-boy they wear on their arms is a multi-function tool, kind of like a smart phone. The syringe thing she used is called a stimpac, and in the games it can heal anything except radiation poisoning, even regenerate limbs, if you have enough stimpacs.

This show is rough to watch, but kind of delightful to re-watch.

The show is based on a popular video game. Some things that seem ridiculous in real life happen in the games, it's called in-game logic, like pulling out the knife. You don't have time to get to a doctor and moving around with a knife sticking out of you would cause more injury. The item that Lucy injected herself with is called a Stimpak and in the games they have nearly instantaneous healing properties. Gore, blood, violence, comedy and dumb things happening are all the same things in the games. Don't take the actions of the show too serious, it's all just a game. As far as the vaults are concerned, this show is the only time we have seen three interconnected vaults. In the Fallout universe/world there are around 122 vaults across the "Commonwealth" of America.

15:44 that shot is called a Stimpak, Stimpaks are basically shots filled with a mixture of healing agents, stimulants, antiseptic, blood, and steel, they’re fully capable of healing all to some physical injures (I say all to some because some injures require more than one Stimpak.) these are one of many chems, short for chemicals, you can find…these various chems include Mentats, a pre-War "party-drug" originally developed by Med-Tek, an in game company, for medical purposes, Buffout, a "sports-enhancement" drug popularized by pre-war athletes, Psycho, a combat-enhancement drug developed at the behest of General Chase, that’s something that happens post-war, Med-X, a painkiller found in many hospitals in game, and Rad-X, a preventive medication to be taken before exposure to radiation, when you take Rad-X in game it reduces the total amount of radiation you receive and bolsters your body’s own Radiation Resistance.

I never played fallout and I’m not really into shooter games. I’ve played a few over the years. A standard feature of these games is some form of “health pack”. Often it’s a box with a red cross like a first aid kit. When you find one you walk on it to pick it up. After you’ve been hurt in combat, you restore health by using the health pack. So when Lucy picked up the hypodermic, I knew what it was. It’s funny to me that the TV series isn’t just set in the game’s world, but that it uses these computer game conventions.

If it's any consolation, episodes 1+2 are the goriest. Which is not to say that there's none in the next 6, but the hard part is over then basically.

I'm not sure why they didn't do a title card that said, "Los Angeles, California 27 October 2077" I guess they expected everyone to know the date because of the game, but many people are watching the show with no prior experience in the games. Lucy's interview with the council is sometime in 2296.

First time viewer, instant fan. The Fallout games have always been known for 2 things, by my reckoning (all the way back to the late '90s): Horrifying violence Dark, dark humor I believe the issue that y'all have with the show falls under the "horrifying violence" category. And I really can't blame you. Fallout has never held back on the gore, and it can be a bit much. My best friend stopped watching halfway through the first episode. Though it is cold comfort, what you're seeing is actually a quite good representation of what Fallout is meant to be. I'm late to the party, as usual, but please know that you won't be judged by me if you have to shield your eyes or clutch a plush animal. Totally understandable.

they embraced the fact that this is based of a computer game. they included some ingame logic, and also some over the top violence and gore. there are indeed some shots that are disturbing for everyone, but its a bit like a parody its so over the top and mixed with music that its basically impossible to be taken as serious.

This show is going to be a tough watch for the gore averse. I’m not averse to gore, I just find it both boring and numbing. I used to really like the movie Kill Bill with its over the top “aesthetic violence”, but now I’m kind of meh about it. I can’t say I hated the gore and violence of this show, but I was shocked by it. It’s pretty strong stuff. I started watching with my 11 year old primito and I had to turn it off because I knew his mom would kill me. And THAT is violence I don’t want to see. Heads blowing up? Fine. But death by chancla? No way, José.

Series essentials without spoiling anything given the show stays pretty vague but nothing I'm saying here looks like the show will even tackle given it has its own plot line and we're all along for the ride, The year in the show is 2296 and takes place in the same timeline as the games but is the furthest story line in the time line of events of the Fallout universe. Lucy is a vault dweller. A bunch of vaults were constructed before the war to house those financially able enough to purchase a home within them for their family. She's the descendant of the survivors and as vaults go hers is a rather good one and she's an excellent byproduct of underground living as it was intended. Maximus is member of the Brotherhood of Steel. The Brotherhood is a surviving group of humans that were once a large military unit and their families from California that survived the war by taking shelter in a reinforced underground military bunker. They're a technology cult that hoard technology because they believe humanity will doom itself to oblivion if allowed to use technology in irresponsible ways that will domino effect to a nuclear war all over again. They once ruled the California wasteland but, fell on hard times after a series of conflicts with the human settlements that were already developing on the surface. They are being supported by that massive airship you see which came from their Eastern chapter on the East coast(the Eastern chapter is explained if you play the games Fallout 3 and 4). The Ghoul is...a survivor. Ghouls specifically are humans that survived the war by sheer luck. The radiation of the Fallout of the war didn't kill them but instead made them somewhat immortal but the trade off is explained in this show and if you play, well, practically any of the Fallout games you'll get a deeper explanation of their people meeting a lot of them in the wastelands each game takes place in. Also, don't worry about not knowing that much about the games, the franchise, or the lore. This is an original story set in the timeline of that world after all of the games so you're getting a unique look into the world of Fallout and it's told in a way that even non-fans can sort of understand what's going on. It's not going to Mandalorian season 2 you with a bunch of lore details and references you won't understand without context. It's pretty cut and dry...of course, for us in the know there's a lot of issues, debate, and questions but, that's for us to worry and nerd out over.

To answer that, Shuni is vegan and I (Lucy) am a vegetarian. We don't eat chicken, or meat at all and we haven't done it in years now. We even had chickens as pets when we were little, and no, we didn't eat them. The chicken that was taken by those men had absolutely nothing to do with that situation and they were treating it like it was a thing that they could use and dispose of. So if you ask me, the chicken wouldn't deserve to die in that awful way. And no, I've never been to Chick-fil-A or KFC. We'll not turn this into a discussion about whether it's ok to eat meat or whatever because this is not what our channel is about, just try to open your mind and consider that people can get upset for the death of animals in a different way than you do and that's ok.
