Am I losing my head or what!? Because I can't get how everybody else is missing the obvious, the adaptations need to be good, we are not tired of super hero movies, we are tired about garbage adaptations, and I literally can't believe any thinking person would really believe:
Oh, people are really tired of Marvel and DC, but game adaptations are thriving it must be their fault (because we are tired, obviously), so let's focus on adapting videogames now!
Seriously! So many terrible adaptations. It's refreshing to see really good shows based on games. It also doesn't hurt that shows like "The Last of Us" and "Fallout" are based on story driven games so there is already a lot of good story to build off.
Fallout, the game series, is way better at lore than story, in my opinion, and that's what makes it such a great setting for well-written stories like this adaptation. They can literally 1:1 all of the visual assets and pull from a well developed cultural and geo-political landscape, and yet there isn't any specific character that they really have to 'get right', other than, like, Mr. Handy. That's a huge advantage for a good creative team.
Yeah Fallout is more of a setting than anything, and that’s why it’s perfect for an adaptation like this. It benefited great from the fact that they didn’t really have to adapt any characters or any single storyline, but simply created a new story and characters in that world and it still be a faithful adaptation
Excuse you. If they get Fisto wrong I will riot.
mostly well made adaptations.
It was pretty good, it was also pretty dumb, cheesy, and flat out badly written at times.
Well made adaptations can be mainstream.
Well made anything can become mainstream!
FFS this!
