Amazon got pretty strict with the copyright hammer, what you see in the edit is what we were allowed to keep after many rounds of trimming.
I never understand why companies get so picky about this. If I see a reaction to a show or film and it looks good I end up renting the content to see the whole thing. Those who don't won't end up renting the content anyway, so it's not as if the studio loses out either way.
Appreciate the effort. This is as far as I've made it, in the series as well
I love that your intro was Galaxy News Radio. It's the only intro I've seen that you relate to watch you're watching.
These distributors really hate free advertising.
Thx 4 not making that an Pat exclusive 👍
Whoever designed the sets deserve a raise big time.
The knights armour is completely working and practical and the pip boys basically use an iPhone to work. The whole retro future vibe is so well created.
apparently the outside of Vault Sandy looking place is real no CGI they went to real location 🍿
They freakin nailed it!
@@antonycharnock2993 I have an iPhone Pip Boy app that worked with Fallout 3 on PS4. It was kinda fun....you could control certain things in the game from the iPhone.
The sets, props and visual design are all leagues beyond what I ever expected.
The moment the doctor says to her he took the pill after her speech full of hope is so funny. The way he says it. Like "No no, trust me...I am NOT going to make it".
Yes 😄 The funniest moment so far. And with the addition of how he kind of liked it, that whole scene was perfect. Loved it.
When he says that the pill was the most humane thing vault tec ever made, it is not only ironic but shows the team making the series are actually familiar with the games
@@roboguard96 "It tastes like bananas, I'm surprised it wasn't more popular..."
I love when he gives the Dog the stimpak it pops up like when you give Dogmeat a Stimpak 😂
Always pops right back up. Even after he fell off an overpass 100 feet up
@@NandR*everyone liked that* after purposefully downing dogmeat so I can grind companion affinity
You know what part is underrated that people just laugh at is the chicken effer scene. Because in the game after you help someone they make a remark and just carry on. No talking real NPC action and I think it gets over looked because it was comical. Like obviously everyone knows the scene and it’s over rated in the sense that it’s what everyone talks about. But they are talking about how it was legit just an NPC moment.
@MrET-kr9zj IKR! I was glad that Dog Meat doesn't die but he did get wounded by the Ghoul though
Lucy pretty much describes her skill distribution in her introductory scene lol, Science, Repair, Speech with points in Small Guns. Hardcore RPer character.
And also melee and unarmed.
Great Charisma, Agility. Above average Luck and Intelligence. Dump Perception and Strength. Good enough Endurance.
@@meanmutton Poor Speech skills though
@@TehIdiotOneseriously. She misses virtually every speech check lol
@@WAHegle91 that’s why I always max intelligence and Charisma and just wing it
Also the actor who digs up the Ghoul,Walton Goggins character, is Benjamin Bufford Blue aka Bubba from Forrest Gump!!!
and they both interacted with each other on Justified. cool little reunion.
"Fried shrimp, boiled shrimp, shrimp on rice"
Lucy, Ella Purnell, plays Jinx in Arcane.
@@CapnLubeHandles The guy who plays Knight Titus is also from Justified.
@@DavidSmith-pg1ob ohhh yeah that's right. I forgot Rappaport was in justified honestly 😂
1) "Ten Years of Cousin Stuff" is officially on my list of potential band names.
2) The fact that the first thing Simon recognizes Kyle MacLachlan from is Sex In The City somehow hurts my soul.
Right? He was best in Dune, wasn't he?
@@NalierHe'll always be Agent Dale Cooper to me.
@@Nalier Twin Peaks.
Called him "Twin Peaks" the whole rewatch with my friends.
Good old Agent T. Peaks
My dad LOVED the Fallout games. It is all he would play. Over and over and over again. He passed away just over a year ago and in his last years was suffering from early signs of dementia. (He was in his late 60's) I think he loved the games so much because it was one of the few things he still enjoyed and could really remember. Watching the series...I just kept thinking how much my dad would have loved this! His favorite game turned into a fantastic tv show. Especially since in the first episode, one of the characters had his name...Monte.
I'm so sorry for your loss. But I truly am glad this series reminded you he was still there. In my mind, coincidence is just a cosmic connection.
Something I see very few people mentioning and it's probably just because they don't care, but the older lady inside the vault is actually the blind lady from Deadpool, the roommate.
Blind Al?
Leslie Uggams. That was the first thing I noticed about that scene and then had to go back and rewatch it because I completely missed what was being said!
Ooo snap
I just KNEW I saw her in something else and thought she was great but couldn’t for the life of me figure out it was Deadpool. Lol she’s a great actress!
Oh my God. I thought she looked & sounded familiar!! I jus couldn't place her
So the Enclave is responsible for all the Dogmeats helping the protagonist across all the games? 😂
Maybe they aren't so bad after all
@jobanh7ify looks like it
This show is everything i couldve hoped for in an adaption. Im actually surprised they nailed the tone so perfectly. From the dark humor and zany characters, to every detail of the world, its truly the game brought to life.
Id say its def an 8.5-9/10 on accuracy to the game
"The player got out of the vault, saved, and went to bed." I literally just did this after starting up a new playthrough after 8 hours of modding lol
I thought that was a standard tactic? 😂
"Why does he have no pants?" - I asked this at first, too, but then it occurred to me that if you lived in the blasted wasteland of the future, where you're unlikely to encounter other people, would you bother wearing pants every day?
Maybe he's out of pants and had to turn a shirt into...what he's wearing? haha
I don't bother wearing pants every day and only live in the blasted wasteland of the present.
To be fair, he said he never been to town. Which, given the state of his property, is likely the only place he'd find materials needed to make pants, or to buy them. 😅
Simone's face!!!
😂😂😂 "that guy was f----g my chickens" 😮
When I saw him in Filly. Oh it's "Chicken fxxker"😂
How the hell do you f** a chicken?
@@immortaljanus Are you asking "how does one decide to f*** a chicken" or "how does it work anatomically"?
@@petrolheadgames92 ......unholy fuck. Humanity trully have reached "that" point
YES!!! I'm so glad y'all picked up the projector burning looking like another apocalypse, symbolizing Lucy's world "ending".
"What do you think her stat distribution is?" *Looks at Ella Purnell* Guessing a fair bit of Charisma
Very high on Charisma and Agility for sure. I'd say a high Luck score, too. Maybe light on Strength and Perception. Intelligence, Endurance probably average to above average depending on how far she dumped Strength and Perception.
She keeps failing speech checks though.
Charisma and agility and luck too lol
I’m thinking she’s got the “Bloody Mess” perk too.
Good hygiene
I'm a 33 year old woman who has never been a gamer, the only game I've even stick to and played fanatically in my life was Fallout.
First one I played was 3. I had a dream that one day maybe this would become a show or a movie but didn't think it would actually happen. Last night I finished the show, excited, emotional and yelling at the screen saying to my fiancé that this is more than I could ever hope for.
The show is incredible.
As a huge gamer and Fallout fan, this pleases me to hear. I'm sure that your reaction is EXACTLY what the creators hoped for - it's obvious that they are genuine fans too. This and The Last Of Us show that games CAN be adapted well, if the people doing it have talent and passion.
@@theaikidoka this game means so much to me that i couldn't react any other way. The last of us is a great show as well
Not to sound ignorant because I'm genuinely curious but how does Fallout, of all games, become a girl's only gaming franchise? How'd you get into this series but not other series, even like Elder Scrolls?
@@Lionimia I've played elder scrolls and finished it but didn't fall in love with it like I did with fallout. My then partner downloaded fallout 3 out of curiosity but I was the one that ended up playing it instead of him. He never got to it but it stuck with me. Then I got NV and 4 when it came out. The only fallout I was late for was 76. I just love it. Surprisingly enough it calms my anxiety too.
@@MillennialPanic Ah that explains it. I agree there is a calming factor that comes with open world games like this. It's a comfort game.
The Ghoul definitely has the 'Bloody Mess' perk. 🤢😁
"Boom"😂
Lucy's brother has Small Frame, and her cousin has Jinxed!
or exploding rounds?
@@GhostDaddy87I don’t think so tbh, if it was ex rounds it would’ve ripped the power armor to bits after a few shots
@@senzanome7302 intresting. its cool to speculate perks, abilities and mods
The one bounty hunter has a "Junk Jet", I think it is called.
It literally uses any debris and trash you can load into it for ammo.
Junk jet in 4, in 3 it is a Rock-It launcher
@@thejeffreyburnsDifferent weapons
Essentially the same weapon, concept-wise. But both were supposed to be one-off creations by crazy nutters. This is set several years after F4, but it's still kind of an strange that junk jets would have become so ubiquitous as to be found all the way across the country in Mexico and LA, in a shop in one case. Maybe it was based on a common pre-war science/engineering kit and so wasn't as unique an idea as the ArcJet tech thought?
I loved that the first time we're introduced to Lucy it's like she's filling out her character sheet and "tagging" her skills. Also, "Castlevania" is another amazing video game adaptation.
"The pickles are ruined now." Exactly what I thought! Priorities.
Totally not true, that salty brine kills just about all of the nasties. The pickles might taste a tad weird, but they will be alright.
My thought was all that salty brine in the large gaping wounds lol
@@DementedCaver Irradiated Blood
Same!
@@DementedCaver yeah salt doesn't do anything for radiation.
Other than potassium iodide, but then that's the issue, you really do not want to consume radioactive iodine. So it's extra bad to eat hose pickles now if they have potassium iodide in the brine. As it will now be more radioactive and increase chance of thyroid cancer for anyone who eats it.
"I told them you wouldn't hurt a fly."
There is literally a scene of him ignoring the flies swarming around him at the cesspit, instead of swatting them.....
1. No point in swatting flies next to shit because it will have 0 affect.
2. The same day he nearly kills a guy for fighting someone and clearly enjoyed making him beg and grovel.
He isn't a nice guy lol
@@mrman-yj3bn wait, who does he nearly kill?
@@brilobox2 the chicken owner
@@mrman-yj3bn he's not a saint, he's just a normal human.
@@MrGhostTheBigRoastnot even that he is objectively a bad person
I'm impressed with the actress that played Janie, she really sold the fear in her "Is it your thumb or mine," line. I hope she goes far in the industry.
I thought it was nice the ghoul was saving the dog for about half a second, then I realized he probably just wanted it to track the guy he was after
Well, he did like dogs before the war.
Not sure why you'd even think he'd save it out of kindness at first when he was the one who just shot her lmao
@Lionimia Sometimes people act to protect themselves and then regret the harm that caused. It doesn't mean they wouldn't do it again, but they do wish it hadn't needed to happen in the first place. You can see it on his face when he looks at the dog once the fight is over. Plus people like dogs 😁
@@Lionimiahe stabbed it
Casting Benjamin Linus from "Lost' and Jackie from "Yellowjackets" together is genius because those two shows get compared to each other a lot for being a large ensemble cast stuck on an island/mountain
If having a character save a kitten shows that they are a good person, does saving a puppy from incineration by nudging the scales show someone is mostly good?
3:18 That little girl did such an amazing job, she looks so genuinely terrified.
Honestly the video game curse has been broken for a long time. The top tier incredible pieces like Arcane, Last of Us, Cyberpunk Edgerunners, Castlevania, and now Fallout. Then you have the lesser but still fun and entertaining ones like Sonic, Detective Pikachu and Mario. At this point the whole curse thing just isn't a thing anymore, now it's just the normal variations of project quality that all film and shows have since film-making is such an intrinsically difficult and complex medium to create in.
I just wish that The Witcher could have survived and been done well. It is downright criminal what Netflix and those writers did to what could have been up there with TLOU and Fallout for live action adaptations! Feel sorry for Henry Cavill, the fans, Andrej the creator and CD Project Red who all deserved way better!
The set design in this is probably some of the best if not THE best in my opinion.
it's very impressive indeed
Great set design on a smaller budget i would recommend Fallout: Nuka Break here on youtube.
The actress who place Lucy is also the voice of Jinx in Arcane, so she's currently 2 for 2 in terms of excellent game adaptations.
The choice of having the raider accidentally ignite the film strip at 11:18.. That's when I knew the show was in good hands. That imagery is intense! ..Well, it was actually the raider grabbing a fistful of cake, BUT STILL!
I was right there with you on the 'Thumbs Up', Simone. I always thought it was just a guy winking a giving the thumbs up with a smile. When you realise he's actually closing one eye, squinting, not smiling, and using his thumb to see how far away he is from certain death, it kinda puts a much more scary picture in your head. I'm actually glad I found out this way, after years of misunderstanding. :)
That not an actual thing. The vault boy is just super enthusiastic.
@@JimBz84 It _is_ an actual thing, because the show is canon to the series. Bethesda is very much on board with Vault Boy's enthusiastic propaganda thumbs up being Coop's trademark trauma from his time at war in Alaska (edit: Or at least representing that twisted irony in Vault Boy)
@@JimBz84 it used to be in army survival manuals as a rough estimation, it just no longer feasible, modern nukes emit a ton of short term radiation so if your in LOS you are iradiated
@@Trepanation21 not to mention this show is not the first time people have brought this up. I remember seeing the "vault boy is actually checking how far away a mushroom cloud is" on some RUclips video years ago. It's not a new concept at all.
Originally the art was not intended that way, but it's been discussed and debated ad infinitum for years, and so they decided to just say fuck it and make it official.
@@TheGoIsWin21
>Originally the art was not intended that way
I think this is the important bit. When the vault boy was created for the first game there was no intention for the thumbs up to be a reference to the 'rule of thumb' thing. It's fine that Bethesda wants to make it that way now, but that's a new interpretation, not one intended from the start.
I can't count how many times I walked up on someone with my gun pointed at them, while trying to interact normally. I love that Lucy moment.
Well she did it on purpose
So did they notice eventually that "Lucy McLane" was the name of John McLane's daughter from Die Hard?
It might be a reference but it's spelled different, MacLean I think.
@@ShittyShittyGameGang aaaah fair enough, will consider it a reference at very least ☺️
I was thinking the same thing
Different spelling John/Lucy McClane and Hank/Lucy McLean.
But yeah, I had the same thought throughout the show.
The head guy at The BoS is one of the agents in the van in Die Hard With a Vengeance.
"Okie dokie"
Fallout and Nicole Coenen is the crossover I never knew I needed.
I couldn't help but think of her every single time! Also, I'm lowkey cringing because I can already envision a zillion new people bothering her about it thinking _iT'S a fALloUt reFEreNcE!_ whenever Nicole's just vibing and doing her thing 💪👱💅
@@Trepanation21 imagine if Lucy says, "Lovely."
Of course, the Nicole Coenen of the Fallout universe is Veronica Santangelo.
The reveal of it being Michael Rapaport in the power armor was way funnier than it needed to be 😂
Fun fact: Michael Emerson (Dr. Wilzig) was in another show, called “Person of Interest”, where his character (and supporting cast of characters), also had a German Shepherd for a companion.
I was super excited when I saw this comparison.
The dog that features in the series is a Belgian Malinois which is also the dog in Person of Interest not a German Shepherd. This is Michael Emerson's first collaboration with Jonathan Nolan {Exec Producer) since Person of Interest.
@@mjz_ausmz8019has a limp here, Belgian Malinois, Ramin Djawadi in charge of music. It's like a Person of Interest shout out. Chef's kiss.
POI is a severely overlooked show! One i think George and Simone would actually really enjoy too.
Too bad his main partner in that show turned out to be a TOTAL nutter.
@@TrickyDicky2006 One of the best shows ever put on TV. And cast is superb. Did I cry like a little b*tch during that Amy Acker monologue about death? And the finale of the show? Yeah I did...
There's a Mr. Handy serving food at the party.
I finished watching it today. Walton Goggins is brilliant in this! He also voices Cecil in Invincible.
Sherrif in hateful 8 was my favourite role of his
I never really knew of him until this. I love how The Ghoul is basically the anchor to the whole show. I need to watch Invincible now.
@@antonycharnock2993 Maybe. But he's got a better role in Justified.
Loved him as Uncle Baby Billy in Rightgeous Gemstones!
I had no idea he voiced Cecil!
I'm now 62 years old and have been playing Fallout since the beginning. Only Fallout 76 wasn't that great for me, but that can happen. The series is now being watched with son No. 2 (in terms of time). We were very curious to see whether it would be the typical crap of a quick-cash film adaptation. But no, it started well.
@Nulli_Di No better way to say it:)
@Nulli_Di Honestly, with all the previous video game adaptations I think people are rightfully wary.
I didn't have high expectations for the show but was pleasantly surprised, It felt like Fallout.
Unlike the Halo show...
So tired of folks mentioning video game to screen as guaranteed awful things. There are good ones and there are bad ones same as other movie types.
@Nulli_Di It's not even mostly in the last decade or so.
@Nulli_Di Also critics audiences and sales.
Never really thought about it, but when Lucy politely asks that stranger questions at gunpoint is what we probably look like in the games too 😂
Yup! 😂
The Snake Oil Salesman might be my favorite recurring side character.
I was watching an interview with the main actress who goes out into the world. And she said : We filmed it in a remote place and there was was really large ship there. She also said that they wouldn't hardly let her touch anything because since everything she almost touched she broke. And the robots were Real that you can get into them , but they wouldn't let her get into the robots😂
What I liked about end of episode 1 is when the Ghoul say "I do it for the love of the game". I know it was fourth wall breaking and cheesy but I liked it!
He also knows the least about the games of the whole cast lol
Im not even gonna lie i didnt even notice it could be interpreted that way i just took it at face value from the ghoul
Well, if we go by Fallout Shelter's stats, Lucy has the following Stats
Strength : 4
Perception: 7
Endurance: 6
Charisma: 5
Intelligence: 6
Agility: 5
Luck: 7
She also has the following Skills according to Episode 1 with the minimum scores according to the video game:
Barter: 30
Big Guns: 15
Doctor: 21
Energy Weapons: 15
First Aid: 36
Gambling: 41
Lockpick: 26
Melee Weapons: 59 (Points Put in here)
Outdoorsman: 11
Repair: 26 (Points Put in here)
Science: 37 (Points Put in here)
Small Guns: 40 (Points Put in here)
Sneak: 30
Speech: 35 (Points Put in here)
Steal: 25
Throwing: 45
Traps: 26
Unarmed: 69 (Points Put in here)
Keep in mind that these skills scores assume that the rules for Fallout 1 and 2 are used, are the minimum score Lucy can have at the start and don't account for the skill points Lucy gains at level 1 and ever subsequent level after. However, from the skills that she displays and tells us she has we can assume that there are points put into said skills. Assuming the rules for Fallout 1 and 2 are being used, she would have a total of 17 skill points to go around at level 1 and every time she levelled up.
When my wife saw the guy being drowned in the pickle juice she said “that must sting with all those cuts on his face”, lol - as if “stinging” was his big worry in all that.
LMFAOO we said the same thing 😂🤣
About her never experiencing the sun and not burning, there is a video in Fallout 2 called "Leaving the vault". It details what you must and must not do when... leaving the vault. maybe she watched one of those.
30:05 "This wasteland f^*%ing SUCKS!" ~Every wastelander ever.
I've only seen the first 4 episodes, but I am pleasantly surprised at how good this is so far. I expected this to be terrible, like most TV/movie adaptations of video games. My wife doesn't even play the games but she likes it too, which is always nice when you have a show you both can enjoy.
I'm on episode 7 and it definitely doesn't get worse I will tell you that much
The problem is changes they made to the west Coast while declaring the show cannon to the games.
I'm struggling on episode 3. Why do 2 of the 3 protagonists have to be so unlikable?
@markcarpenter6020 There aren't really changes, it takes places aftar FNV. Looks like after Lonesome Road, though apparently the nuke at Shady Sands was caused by a different event.
@@Michael-bn1oi medicine that keeps a ghoul from going feral, moving shady sands to LA, and a few other retcons. But when I said changes I meant the developments they made like destroying the NCR and Vegas. The west Coast has gone from being a place where civilization was being rebuilt to being just like the east Coast. It's like Bethesda doesn't know how to anything besides tin shacks and generic raiders.
Just noticed that Lucy and her Dad are watching a Cooper Howard movie during her intro monologue.
trivia: They created fully functional Pip-Boys for the actors to use in the show.
The only thing they missed on the first episode was a Ron Perlman intro lol
Has he done anything Fallout since New Vegas?
@TheLanceUppercut opening for 76 apparently(haven't played), npc in 4.
@@drew.168was he an NPC in 4? I only remember that he was the newscaster in the pre-war opening. Unless that was a sound-alike.
8:05 "Breeder? I hardly know 'er!"
*rimshot*
🤣🤣🤣
I read an interview with one of the show creators and he said Todd Howard just gave them free reign to do what they wanted. He said most creators have a list of things that need to be signed off on as everything is being done but Howard just said do what they needed to do and he would help them whenever they needed it so they tried really hard to make it as good as possible because they got so much freedom.
First time I blew up Megaton was just curiosity. "I wonder what happens if you shoot --"
Nothing happens if you shoot it
@@TheLanceUppercut Shh, this is my head canon
I’ve only watched the first 2 episodes so far but I wanted to point out the bit with the ghoul healing the dog, I’m positive that it wasn’t out of niceness like a lot of people seem to think, and admittedly that was the first thought I had but after a couple of seconds I realized why he did it. He can use the dog to track the doctor because the dog can follow doctor’s scent.
"Is this the thing that finally lifts the curse..."
"The Last of Us" would like a word with you, George.
They watched The Last of Us also. I'm not sure why they don't remember it.
The last of us wasn't really a game though
@@kschell286What?!
Diaper dude's posture is right out of the original isometric game. Lucy talking to an NPC without putting her weapon away. Who hasn't done that in Fallout? Brilliant: two fan services in one scene.
Betty is “Blind AL” from the Deadpool films. Put a giant pair of Ray-Bans on her and you’ll be like, Oh shit there you are. 😂
Anyone else thinking Maximus looks like Denzel? I feel like I'm the only one? It's insane how many facial expressions they share.
Imagine...you're leaving the vault for the first time -VERY DRAMATIC- but...the door opens...and...it's....nighttime.
WHAOH.
I watched the entire season in one go when it came out already, but really enjoyed watching you guys reac'.
MOAR MAOR MOAR.
:3
The old 1940’s and 50’s music is really well done! It’s that extra bit of detail that shows this series is well put together.
I love how at first, Maximus is a companion forced to carry all of the equipment.
He saved '404. She was under the minimum weight. In case anyone missed the scale.
I don't get that though. He saved it, and was allowed to take the dog by the security at the checkpoint, yet it was a problem that he had the dog, and not that he had made his own cold fusion device ...
They really didn't have to have the other scientist show up to motivate him to leave, he should have just left one day and snook away.
Dogmeat cannot die. I mean literally in the game even when he “dies” he’s only knocked out until he gets a stimpak. Killing Dogmeat would actually go against canon imo 😂.
Depends on the game. Dogmeat can absolutely die in some of them.
I’ve watched a tonne of different reactions to this show and it’s completely refreshing to watch people react to it who are actually fans of the games . Thank you both for being fellow nerds.
Lucy aiming a gun at an NPC while starting a dialog is very Fallout. As is the GIANT bag of guns and supplies the overburdened squires haul around.
Kyle MacLachlan should be known for “Twin Peaks”, not “Sex in the City”.
And Showgirls
@@zombiTrout A classic that will be remembered for generations.
He is Paul Atreides. Muad'Dib.
I thought of the movie "The Hidden". It's not discussed much, but I love it.
@@slimmccoy8863 Wow that's one I haven't thought of in a long time. Was a cool film.
I loved that during certain dialogue and actions you can hear traits going up. And Lucy's dad was Paul Atreides in the first Dune.
Also Fred Flintstone’s boss in the movie.
He also enjoys a 'damn fine cup of coffee' in Twin Peaks!
@@Denashi And cherry pie! Mmmm! 😀
@@ericy4522Jade give two rides. Heh. 😂
Honestly, this is pretty much Paul Atreides if he went full-on Harkonnen side of himself.
The fact that the first thing to come to Simone's head when she saw Kyle MacLachlan is proof that you guys need to watch Twin Peaks.
Cooper Howard is definitely a VATS build character.
Amen. He destroys that town.
Jackie from "Yellowjackets" is one of my favorites on that show. I was happy to see her the lead in this show too.
She’s also the voice of Jinx from “Arcane”. Was shocked to learn she’s British, because she does a very good job of hiding the accent in her roles. And she sounds completely different in interviews with the accent.
The "Thumbs up" lore is new, I believe, and unique to the show.
It was actually something soldiers were really told in the 50s.
I'm really happy you two are doing this series! I think game adaptations have gotten massively better because the people making these shows grew up actually playing games. They have an understanding of not just the individual games, but what it's like to engage with that medium as a whole. Jonathan Noland (EP of this show along with his wife) talked about not writing scripts for months back in the early 2000s because he was playing Fallout 3.
It saddens me that Simone sees Kyle MacLachlan and the first thing she thinks of is Sex and the City. Twin Peaks, WATCH IT!
I don't mind it. The man's had a stable career!
This. And “Blue Velvet”.
He is the Kwisatz Haderach!
He's also on Agents of Shield
Also the mayor of Portland on Portlandia
Apparently, the mobile Fallout Shelter game is including show characters in an update.
I love the interaction between Lucy and the desert dweller because in the game, when you approach NPCs, you always have your gun pointed at them. Subtle nods like this show that the creators care about the source material enough to include easter eggs like this.
I was wondering how Wilzig didn't bleed out and was still conscious with his foot blown off. And I realized he was only suffering from the "crippled" status effect lol.
I love that Lucy is pointing a gun at the wastelander when she first talks to him. Every single player has does that! You see an NPC, start talking to them, forgetting to put your gun away. lmao!

The food is the spreadiest, the wine is the headiest
The pals are the readiest, the gals are the steadiest
The love the liveliest, the life the loveliest
Way back, way back, way back, home
(No place like home)
Sweet home🎵
Glad you two are reacting to this
@4:43 NO... thats Kyle MacLachlan from Twin Peaks ffs !! from Sex and the City ? who cares ?? He's and ever will be Agent Cooper from Twin Peaks. Period !
In regards to the fusion core, I think it's more accurate that they don't run out very quickly to how something like a fusion core would last. I think it's purely a gameplay/mechanical thing so that you can't just use the power armor all the time, with all it's various upgrades.
I loved all the little details. The Sugarbombs, Grognak, Yum Yum Deviled Eggs, the computers and desk fans, the hiss of the stimpacks, etc. It really feels like the games.
Had to look it up because I thought she said Lucy McClane who is John's daughter in the die hard movies
I'm sure it's a reference but it's spelled different. Her's is MacLean
I'm glad ya'll broke protocol to react to this ASAP, in a sea of people who didn't play the game it's great to get nerdy reactors who actually know the franchise.
"That's Kyle MacLachlan..." 🤩
".....from Sex and the City" 😫
This comment broke my heart. You guys need to learn about the greatness of Twin Peaks and soon! 😁
Yes, the implication is that Cooper was the original model for Vault Boy. Also, if you pay attention, you'll find Vault Girl is around too. The town, FIlly, is build in/on a landfill(y).
I blew up Megaton once and almost immediately got bored/felt bad. Hearing Three Dog talk shit about me made me give up on playing the “bad guy” route about an hour in.
Show is 11/10
IMO the best adaptation since the first season of Game of Thrones
I'm proof that this is a really good adaptation.
I'm a middle-aged woman who has never played Fallout. I have played a fair share of first person shooters back in the stone age, though.
Still I really enjoy the hell out of this. The colorful sets and weird gadgets takes me back to the old games and gives even me a sense of nostalgia. They also take the time to let me figure out what thing are and what's going on. That's good world building. But what makes it work is the complex storylines and even more complex characters. I've been missing those for a while....
18:00 on Fallout Shelter they added Lucy as a character and her stats are as follows: S4, P7, E6, C5, I6, A5, and L7. She has her own Vault Suit that grants her an additional P3, E2, L3. Additionally, she carry’s a special Tranq Gun that has 2-12damage
coming from a fallout modder this show is so good
I just wished they either hadn't messed with the lore or hadn't declared the show cannon to the games.
I personally love it when the turret flashes, please stand by. It is so Fallout and so hilarious😅😂
Personally, I prefer Naughtis Maximus. Love me some Monty Python! LOL😅😂
The Deathclaw cave kinda explains why Titus goes through Squires.
He uses them up.....
Yao Guai cave, not Deathclaw
Yes Titus sucks. Both in attitude and how wimpy he is. You can be level 1 in that armor and stomp entire towns.
@@jasenjacobs1365 But if you go up against a Yao Guai at level 1, even in full T-60 power armor, you'll get your shit pushed in just the same.
I still remember my fist mole rat kill in Fallout 1, right out of the vault. Almost 30 years ago. This franchise was gold from the start. Seeing Shady Sands referenced gave some tasty memberberries.
I'll keep saying it, Fallout is by far THE single best video game adaptation I've ever seen.
You know why they did it right? because they didn't retell the same stories we already played, they took the already rich world and told a story inside it, and they got every detail of the games in the show right. From the costumes to the set designs to the props. It's *chef's kiss*
Excuse me, that's Kyle Maclachlan of Muhad'Dib fame. As for Titus, I believe he was made to be the epitome of a player character. He doesn't act at all like a Brother would act, he acts like murder hobo player character who can't handle an actual challenge and doesn't really have any active RP going on as to the Brotherhood. Given that its Michael Rappaport, that makes sense.
Yeah: she clearly needs to watch more good Maclachlan stuff.
Did anyone else play so much Fallout that they would have dreams of being in that world? I remember one vivid one with me running down an alley, and hiding in a dumpster to evade a couple of deathclaws.
Ella really got the main role on Two amazing video game adaptions. Arcane and now Fallout.
yoooooooo I dunno how I missed this on the Patron but hell yeah.
I've binged the whole thing, and it's absolutely excellent. A fantastic portrayal of the fallout series that's also accessible to new audiences.
I didn't see it on Patreon. I check every day, this one has gone straight to public RUclips.
I've just binged it. Really surprised how much I enjoyed this as I've never really played the game although I knew some lore. That soundtrack really adds to to the atmosphere.
@@CineRam they snuck it past us on this one 😂
@@antonycharnock2993 probably not surprising considering Bethesda owned the rights to them from the games (the ones they didn't create themselves), but it's all songs used in the games. The show does a great job of capturing the tone and theme of the show, blithe 50's cheer overlayed with the horrors of man and nightmare of nuclear war
People are very conflicted on that. It seems like the more die-hard fans of the franchise are NOT very happy about the series.
