Honestly same. I was surprised when I saw Norm's storyline continue after Lucy had left, primarily because he wasn't really in any of the promotional stuff Out of the entirety of the show, all of which I loved, I specifically loved past Cooper and Norm's stuff the most I adore the "before the storm" stuff in the past, jumped out of my seat seeing Robert House, and understanding the society that existed before they were struck with the end of the world. He plays the character brilliantly, and so does Norm The mystery of the vaults is riveting, and his character walks the perfect line of meaningfully defiant and purposefully obedient -- I honestly couldn't get enough of episode 8 when they framed Norm and Cooper's stories overlapping as the truth is revealed

To be fair I think a lot of the "convenient meetups" can be explained by the fact that all three main characters are after the doctor's head. Lucy has a tracker that leads her straight to whoever has it, The Ghoul/Maximus has the dog, and whenever a character doesn't have one of those there is still normally some sort of lead for them to follow.

The show did two things that pretty much guaranteed its faithfulness to the show: 1. Most of the crew were fans of the games. Even Jonathan Nolan himself is vocal about his love of the games. 2. Bethesda had direct communication and decision-making with the production. They were consulted on their what was going to happen in the story and it was a mutual agreement between the show-runners and Bethesda.

EDIT: Most ppl cant be bothered to read beyond this comment before replying to me so I am editing it: My main complaint is not that the actors played or did not play the games. I couldnt care less if they did or didnt, it only helps the actors see how they should portray characters, get a feeling of the atmosphere and the world. It actually all comes down to the showrunners. The writing itself is quite horrible, its written like a Marvel show. That is entirely up to you if you enjoy it or not, I do not. But objectively speaking, its also not GREAT or AMAZING as people here(and not only here) claim repeatedly, its just another mediocre show that is being overrated to oblivion because it is better than your other average show. I have presented multiple points, for example the fact that Shady Sands has been nuked or the fact the Enclave is still around. There are plenty of scenes that are written and filmed horribly, for example the scene where a man runs away from a turret with a dog beside him and neither of them get hit even once(the distance is couple of meters and the CGI is beyond bad). Or scenes with the Ghoul being badass, those scenes are quite outrageous. Its like its written by some teenager with power fantasies. There is one specifically where the Ghoul talks to the brotherhood soldiers in a room and they are all aiming a gun at him while he talks. He mentions that the suit of armor has a weakness and they are all just watching him load a gun and shoot one of the soldiers and even afterwards they still let him make a Marvel tier remark. ------------------------------------------------------------ So Lucy MacLean played arguably the worst Fallout game after 76. Hard to say if Walton Goggins got it right since you state that he only "understands what makes it enjoyable and interesting", and Aaron Paton watched twitch streamers play the game....that does not look good to anyone with a brain. Compared to lets say Henry Cavill in The Witcher show. I have personally watched the show(not in the entirety yet) and its nothing special. You can watch the Synthetic Mans review and I absolutely agree with his view. There are also tons of clips on 4chan that show the ridiculously cringeworthy moments(man running with a dog from a turret firing at him in a straight line and neither of them get shot(and the CGI is really bad). Is this better than the HALO show? Yes. Is Fallout a good show? No.

One note about the "plot conveniences", it's because the characters are so intertwined in their shared goals that they are all following their own paths to the same destinations. For example, in the beginning they're all headed to Filly. Some of them group up there, and those that don't are following the dog who's tracking their scent. Lucy literally has a quest objective marker to follow the entire time. What I'm getting at, is that they all have their own ways of finding where they need to be, and because they're all chasing the same thing, they usually end up there around the same time.

When Lucy is first walking through the waste land I was like “oh yeah, that’s definitely a place I’ve walked through before” like if the show makes me feel a sense of not just nostalgia, but Deja vu in some sets and scenes then it’s doing something right with its design

Fallout lore is insane. The wasteland literally spans the entire US. What made this show especially impressive to me was the thoroughness and depth they went into. They actually did it

There are so many sick little references in this show. Even in the scene where she asks the guy for directions to filly, she keeps her gun pointed at him on accident. Its a cool little hommage on how players in the game always have their gun drawn on npcs in dialogue.

@elijahgrimm8052

That and as a low-level vault dweller she slowly loses that naive mindset and starts gearing up. Slowly getting armor, learning about the wasteland, "Everyone I met out here has tried to kill me." It's hilarious and pretty faithful to the game. After a while you kind of start to shoot first and ask questions later.

Its refreshing to see a show based off a game not only be good but objectively good for people who haven’t heard of fallout. It has amazing tension with the NCR, shady sands nuke reveal, and vault 31 and 32

I really loved what they did with Lucy and the Ghoul’s chemistry in this. The latter absolutely could not care less about hurting her at any point initially despite his knowing about her innocent attitude and vault background. Got her as a mutated axolotl bait and straight up sliced her finger off with no hesitation, just glorious. The next season will obviously build up a more friendly relationship between the two, leaning towards a more father-daughter one even I bet, but still I liked that they didn’t rush off to that point with them this season

They can learn from each other. He's already showing her how cruel the wasteland is and you do what you have to do to survive. She can teach him, or remind him of his humanity he once had. The cruelty of the world may bend her but it won't break her. The comment she made to him when she left the Superduper Mart about one day she may look like him, but she will never be like him, says it all. After what he did to her, she still kept to her beliefs in being a decent person. She could have killed him, could have not given him his medicine and let him succumb to turning feral, but she didn't. She gave him the meds and left, but with a stronger attitude.

Ya I loved their interactions and relationship. I was sure they were gonna make him the ‘gruff but well-meaning mentor’ character to her. Where he’s a bit rude and combative, but has good intentions and trying to help her out and teach her. Instead he’s just cold and ruthless and not afraid to use her for his benefits. Cutting off her finger for payback, using her as bait for the monster, selling her to organ harvesters for drugs. Really happy they didn’t just make it a stereotypical mentor/student relationship. They probably go that way for season 2, but was good to see Cooper actually be a legit bounty hunter only in it for himself.

Not o e laser or plasmic splatter, even tho those are supposed to be the weapons the BOS uses most.

The Ghoul feels like a max level character finally getting around to the main story, a mythological figure being dug out of a grave to walk the wastes again it was great.

In games its strongly hinted at that it was actually Vault tech that started it all. In Megaton the nuke is actually Vault techs.

Vault Tec is just a branch of the deep government that turned into the Enclave. They only thing they're responsible for is the treatment of the vault dwellers, not the entire war. The war most certainly is so broad that it's an unmitigated disaster that no single party could be responsible for. Kinda the whole point of Fallout, humanity is responsible.

It's canon that China launched the nukes, you are still right about vault tech and the show confirms they had the plan, but they don't actually confirm they started the war. They had nukes, but if it were them that launched them that day, the daughter would have not been with Dad.

I interpreted it in the show that they intended to start the war by detonating a nuke in shady acres, but it’s never explicitly said that they were the soul cause of the war

@@pennywise5662 Yeah, Vault Tec may have had the plan to launch on the back burner as a potential course of action, the Chinese just got the jump and launched before Vault Tec expected or planned. Then at that point the US retailiated, Vault Tec jumped on the bandwagon firing some off, heck even the Zetans fired some shit off as well.

I love that it felt like Maximus played the game with Wild Wasteland on. Every weird thing seemed to happen to JUST him and everyone else was collateral. The Chicken fucker, having his Knight be a idiot, he kept failing upward, etc

In cannon, Vault-Tec was a legitimate driver of the bombs dropping. They wanted the bombs to fall specifically to perform their vault experiments. They were working with the branch of government that later became the Enclave so that the Enclave could collect and use that data to rebuild without significant resistance or opposition.

Well, you gotta remember in terms of fallout when people do meet. It does kind of sound convenient, but it is a deserted town and there’s not much town to go when it’s a wasteland. You got one town here one over there so it kind of works both ways there’s not much places to go

Loved the show overall, but I was surprised how invested I became in the mystery of what was happening in vaults 31-33. Every time they dropped new hints, then jumped to the A plot I'd be yearning to get back for more.

The vault experiments are my favorite part of Fallout so I was excited for the reveal of what was going on between the 3 of them. It was probably another nod to the mechanic in-game, now that I think of it. Especially with Norm having to hack the terminals to read logs and exploring the spoOoOky vault full of context clues and corpses!

Bioshock is just diet atlas shrugged

The nuke at Megaton in 3 had Vault-Tec branding.

i think the explanation for how everyone is there where they need to be, Lucy was following the tracker in the head, and the Ghoul had dogmeat with him who was tracking through scent. So they all were travelling through where the head was.

My mom was a set dresser for this show. She worked exclusively in the vaults, and told me they nailed everything about Fallout (I taught her about some fallout lore.) Everything inside was completely practical and faithful to the game. It was exciting she was working on it, but I thought it was just going to be another halo situation. I was so very happy to find out the show is fantastic!

The atmosphere is completely accurate with what they can do, lots of practical sets and less green/blue screen and I loved it. Very happy with the way season 1 ended, will tune in for season 2. I do think they should release weekly just to keep the fallout vibe going for 2 months instead of 2 days.
