I'm absolutely thrilled, I'm looking forward to continuing in New Vegas.
No one has ever said that these countries started a war. It just suddenly started.
And if you watch the first episode, there weren't even any traces of missiles.
Therefore, it is now the official canon that corporations, not countries, started the war (:
Personally, I would not like such violence against the ent of the universe. In the original Fallout, there were records that the war really unfolded between states, and that the first explosions in the United States were on the east coast; in F4 it is explicitly stated that the war began with the fixation of ICBM launches.
But I understand the current tension of the public and their desire to blame everything on evil corporations.
I've heard the opinion that it's about money as usual. ;-)
The series will definitely go to China, with its crazy-sized audience. How would you smooth out the corners?
There is more of an ideological point here. Let's start a war so that all other factions capable of waging war, except ours, die out.
According to the same methodology, Shady Sands was destroyed.
The series is very cool by the way, I'll go to fallout 3 and finally pass

Are these blunders or did I not understand something?:
-how could Dad McLean, being the caretaker of the 33rd and communicating through a computer with the brain of Bud Askins, not know what happened in the 32nd? The corpses were mummified there for a long time, did this brain in a box and father McLean was not at all worried about such a long silence on the air, and before the wedding he was not embarrassed that unfamiliar people answered and came when they were there through one relative?
- A water chip broke in shelter 33? Let's forget about it in a couple of episodes, no one will notice. And why was it a problem at all, if the 32nd is empty next to it, take the chip from there.
- they didn't explain in any way how Muldaver lived so long. The most logical assumption is a cryocamera. OK, but then why did it unfreeze after the disaster exactly 200 years later, and not start operating immediately? Or even later?
- why in this series Cooper put down several Paladins at once in seconds (knowing the vulnerable point of their armor), and at the beginning of the series he butted heads with Maximus for so long when they both came for the scientist.
Well, there's also a bunch of small things, for example: in 4ka, the "forbidden" 12th level and the power unit of the entire shelter are not guarded at all (even considering that they let everyone in); how did the residents of 4ka find and why did they drag Maximus armor into the shelter?; a slightly limping but quite well-moving person with a leg in the form of sliced meat.... Yes, there are many more🫠
He's probably not such a big shot in Vol Tech. They're all lab mice there. There was a riot in '32. It's been two years since the population was destroyed!
It can also be assumed that the messages are pre-moderated. And all the correspondence was with the bot.
The question is how Moldiver and her 40 robbers were able to intercept the communication channel. But, this problem is purely technical.
///if the 32nd is empty next to it///
It seemed to me that this is an evil satire on this whole democracy. Complete fools are climbing onto the podium, elbowing each other. The tunnel in the 32nd was filled up by an explosion. Well, Okie Doke. There are more important things to do. We need to hold elections. :)
/// at the beginning of the series, I butted heads with Maximus for so long///
I've heard the opinion that this is a purely gaming feature. The Ghoul was in a playful mood. Since he's been rocking for 200 years! Then his strength is not measured. Like a cat with a mouse. He went out into the middle of the square, and took out the whole city! Suddenly, a knight from the Brotherhood of Steel flew in, and the Ghoul mockingly took him with a knife!!!
///how did the inhabitants of 4ka find and why did they bring Maximus' armor to the shelter?///
Shelter number 4 is a bad shelter. There were inhuman experiments on humans. :(
There was a riot and the laboratory mice won. There's also Moldiver's hand with the survivors of the bombed-out town of Shady Sands. 4-ka is no longer controlled by Vol-Tech. This is a free settlement. Some of the inhabitants came from the surface. Which means they don't have a taboo on going out. There should be scouts patrolling the area anyway. The beds, there, some on the surface to guard. If there are resources, they should be used. Armor is like our tank! It will come in handy on the farm. ;)
Firstly, as a person who has passed all the parts of Fallout more than once (especially the 2nd part), NEW VEGAS is waiting for us, and it's a hundred times better, the aesthetics of this season, made in the style of the 4th part (one Legion is worth waiting for)
Secondly, there is a lot of black humor, non-standard moves and injuries of the main characters (although there is a steampunk, so all the necessary characters will survive), the plot, of course, is the search for the father, but not mediocre
Thirdly, the secondary characters are gorgeous, I could watch a couple more road movie episodes of Pernell and Goggins, the chemistry is felt, the branches with Lucy's brother, Goggins' wife and daughter have good potential.
There are no questions for the actors.
Fourthly, there are a ton of references, they are everywhere, in phrases, on the screen, in the soundtrack.
Amazon and others (it feels like a lot of people who love the Fallout universe participated in the team) created a wonderful series (not a walk-through, like the Lord of the Rings), which at least will appeal to fans of 3 and 4 fallouts, and as a maximum will come in as an attraction and acquaintance with the universe for everyone else
Goggins is inexcusably few on the screen, a spinoff about the brotherhood has become unequivocally necessary, and all hopes that Nolan will not mess up with the second season (I remember the World of the Wild West)
Therefore, when everything collapses around, the easiest thing is to build a farm and collect primitive and cheap firearms, and live by the principle of the law is the one who is stronger and who has a bigger gun.;
Naturally casinos, slaves, drugs, religion will flourish in such a world)
There's only the dialog interface and the claws of death from fallout, and weak ones at that. Flying poisonous insects were even cooler than the claws of death.
The final at the dam is generally a separate topic, I just followed the allies and did not understand what the difference was between mine and others.
The spirit of fallout is when you get out of the shelter and don't understand what's going on around, and not where you are some kind of courier. At this rate, you will write down tactics in your favorite parts, because there are unique mechanics there.
it's unclear what you're doing in New Vegas? YOU're FIGURING OUT WHY THE FUCK YOU GOT SHOT IN THE HEAD! Weak motivation in your opinion?
Factions affect the plot, quests, the ending, everything is as it should be in an RPG.
The finale is an excellent large-scale hack, in which suddenly it is not necessary to kill all the enemies yourself, and some of the work will be done by allies, whom you will recruit by completing quests and choosing a side.
Is it okay that the starting and conditionally main quest of the first and second fallout is to find a stray and bring it? Is it not a courier? And a lot of quests are courier.
The main disadvantage of New Vegas is that somewhere in the middle there is a lot of tiring running around.
I wrote about the factions and the final above - I was not hooked. I didn't understand the motive of the main character, his motivation, I didn't understand the actions and psychology of the NPCs, factions, and everything in general. After f1 and f2 (and even f3, which triggers many) I wasn't interested in playing it.
A simple megaton from f3 caused me more emotions than the whole of Vegas.
And about "finding a stray and bringing " about f1 and f2 - no, not at all. The quest was to save his people, community/refuge.
Well, okay, then there will be only one point of view in the comments, hello dead habr.
Do you compare your opinion with others every time? And if it does not match yours, you definitely need to speak out in the spirit of "why the author of the comment thinks this way, because I think in a completely different way, you need to write about it urgently, someone is wrong on the Internet"
I'm glad that you like other games in the Fallout universe unlike me, and it's very strange that you're confused that there are other people who like games that you don't like.
It will be easy for a simple person who is not familiar with the universe to integrate, because even the scenery in the background is made with a professional approach. The plot is not drawn out and not tedious. Black humor completely dilutes the whole picture and fell out of some jokes.
The main characters, as well as the minor characters, are very well developed. It is impossible to say unequivocally about him whether he is good or bad, everyone has their own story. And as a result, everything was remembered, and not like in other TV series, when sometimes you forget what the main character's name was.
The soundtrack and atmosphere are worked out at a high level. It would be very interesting to learn more about New California and the Brotherhood of Steel. I think there will definitely be spinoffs.
The plot seemed strange in places, but quite understandable and interesting. Many people do not believe that the corporation could have dropped the bomb itself, but why not believe it? They had plenty of money, technology also allows, there are connections in the government, and moral principles have gone into the background - in general, there are no prohibitions. They dropped it on some country under the guise, without having time to figure it out, it already responded to the "aggression" of another and here's a nuclear war for you.
So the conclusion is that we are waiting for the continuation, and I hope it will not be worse.
I definitely recommend watching it!👍
Vegas was literally made by people from Black Isle Studios. It is not soy, unlike 3/4. There are a lot of options for completing both the game itself and individual quests.
You either haven't played, or you're not a fan of the original games in the series.
I liked the characters in general, some more, some less, but at least I didn't want to see anyone.
What I liked:
1. Attention to detail, in terms of decorations at least, right down to the paintings on the walls, the only thing is that all these decorations are from the four, but still, they are conscientiously done.
2. Music! There were probably only three songs that I hadn't heard at all, of the rest I know almost half by heart, and I'm almost sure that most of these songs weren't in the game, but I definitely heard them in fashion on the radio, of course it could just be a coincidence, well, like they were looking for songs from the same era.
3. Meat and other non-childish topics, there could be more, but I am glad that they were not removed for children. In general, some kind of fall atmosphere was tightened, although I would not say that even the 4th, which was clearly filmed, was completely transferred, but in the video I count as a plus because each part has its own atmosphere.
4. Characters. It probably wasn't intended that way, but I practically didn't see any "good" characters, except for Max's friend, who only harmed himself. Everyone has done something bad or selfish by hurting another, it seems to me realistic in life, and even more so in the post-apoc. Of course, Lucy and Max are still considered "good" on paper, but the situation was forced.
What I didn't like:
1. In terms of locations and plot, we just put all the games together, it seems like I knew that the obvious Megaton from the trailer would not be a Megaton, but a mixture of Megaton and Diamond City, well, it cuts the eye straight, unless it's some kind of alt. The universe can roll. Another escape from the Shelter and the search for his father. Another cryofreezing of people from the past. Another Cleaner (the energy chip was activated at the end) Another Wedding. Now there will be another New Vegas campaign. I think you can still list it for a long time, in short, where is something new?
2. Is the brotherhood some kind of cult with monks? I'm glad that assholes, the canon is true here.
Megaton is the east coast, and here is the west coast, LA, in the Santa Monica area.
I'm aware that the Megaton is not in LA, but you never know, maybe they would somehow have attached it in the form of a flashback or something, so far they haven't even said why, it seems there are several planes there, mb was an airfield or something.
Few people remember, but the first fall was an allusion to fantasy, only in post-nuclear conditions. From there, zombie ghouls, orcs-super mutants, palladins-brotherhood, etc. And on the game disc there was the first working build of the engine, where everything is just fantasy, in real time, and not step-by-step, the knight runs around the map.
Did the Brotherhood always have some kind of RCP priests with censers? Well ok. It is known that they are a cult, I mean religious rituals, they are a technological-military cult, not a religious-medieval one.
But in general, this elder (the dude from Mr.Robot) obviously refers to both the outcasts from F3 and Father Elijah from NV. That is, even within a faction that wants to save the world by condom technology, every time it splits into sub-factions that have their own opinion on how to use technology
You are right about splitting into factions, but this seems to me to be a separate topic in general, I doubt that any religious faction has been founded here, although theoretically anything can happen, if in the future they somehow justify reasonably why this is so, then please. So far, it just looks very strange and inappropriate.
I'm wandering around reddit here, I came across a quote from House from New Vegas when he asks to clean up the brotherhood:
"They're terrorist group, basically". Militant, quasi-religious fanatics obsessed with hoarding pre-War technology.
There is also an interesting idea that the Enclave are followers of a political bloc, the Brotherhood is a military organization. The logical development was the radicalization of each of them. Well, the same Caesar, who came out of the followers of the apocalypse and became disillusioned with liberal values, took and muddied the cult with the form of the Romans. That's why it seems realistic to me that the Brotherhood is becoming more dogmatized
And that the Enclave is watered. the block is so canon, they are the pre-war government, as well as the BoS pre-war military)) Radicalization is logical, yes, given the structure of the organizations themselves, and post-apocalyptic times, although again, radicalization does not have to be religious, they have a third Reich or something there. Caesar just took advantage of the situation in his favor, but he was disappointed rather in uneducated savages, by the way, a man wrote to me there above that there was no medieval rollback of technology in Vegas, yeah, that's the whole Legion just consists of people who rolled back to the Middle Ages, or even further, by the way.
That the Brotherhood is becoming more and more radicalized, yes, it is logical that it is becoming religious after all, not for me. Usually people turn to religion when there is no progress, the Brotherhood seems to have everything normal on the technological front, so it would be strange for them to start praying to someone around the campfire with a tambourine, it seems to me.
There, one of the Courier's partners, Veronica (the best girl in New Vegas, by the way) confirms that different departments may have their own policies and they can act autonomously, based on local circumstances and the vision of the elders, citing the same split in the BS on the East Coast as an example. Only the code and ideology remain common, and how to follow them and what methods to rely on already depends on the elders.
In the series, it may well be that the local elder himself is a very religious person, and based on the ideology of BS, he sees his power like this. It does not seem to contradict their postulates, and his vision reflects it.
Хотелось бы надеяться что это не прям религия, а типа чисто визуал какой-то обрядности ради, но тоже не сильно лучше потому что эта обрядность религиозная в своем начале, что вообще не вяжется с технофилами.
I don't quite agree about Caesar, because he literally pulls knowledge on his experience and worldview, bringing them to casus belli, which Arkade accuses him of. In short, he interprets it as it suits him, including because all this pretentious rhetoric will lead thousands of uneducated savages after him.
Так простите, а не все ли мы натягиваем знания на свой личный опыт и мировоззрение? Это если грубый пример привести как имея хирургические навыки один может спасать людей, а другой может с высокой точностью артерии резать, являясь каким-нибудь киллером или маньяком. Здесь может быть правильней сказать так, что используя общие архивы знаний Последователей и Цезарь и Аркейд имеют знания о Древнем Риме, но именно Цезарь решил эти знания перенести на практику, т.е. закосплеить свой Древний Рим. Последователи явно не придерживаются понятия casus belli, а как раз наоборот, так что Цезарь и стал анти-Последователем потому, что он лично посчитал что Последователи не правы в своих методах. А если Вы хотите сказать что условно что Цезарь, что Последователи хотят мира, так это вообще почти все фракции, только каждый видит мир и его достижение по-своему. Ну и конечно что он пользуется необразованностью дикарей это факт, только это опять же по-сути любой правитель делает, даже сегодня нам все что-то пытаются политики втереть пафосными речами))

Он не балабол, а "право имеет")) Если серьезно, то понятно что он лицемерит, но а кто нет то, из тех что у власти? И сделали бы Вы что-то сильно по-другому на его месте? Я не думаю что отказалсь бы от власти данной мне в руки, а по строю и рабству вряд ли бы косплила ДР, но могу предположить что те дикари с которыми он имеет дело по-другому очень плохо понимают, поэтому мб на первых нескольких племенах он еще кому-то что-то объяснял и конвертировал, а потом как мощь армии появилась уже тупо в кандалы и на работу/в армию.
I.e. yes, I understand what Caesar is doing and why, but the more I delved into their ideology, the more disgusting it seemed to me. No matter how good the goals may be, with such methods, all these carts about crossing the Rubicon and my own Rome do not inspire me in any way, especially since they have managed to shit on even uncaptured territories. There, the settlement of the city is cut out, here it is taken into slavery, there the whole area is infected with radiation. Perhaps someone likes to walk on safe roads when people are crucified on their sides, but personally I prefer other options for saving Mojave, and the Legion only makes it worse for everyone on the way to its goal - that's why I always cut the whole Fort to hell.
Why do I single out NV for myself from the whole series - it allows you to rely on your moral principles to the greatest extent, and sometimes even think about or doubt them. Honestly, at first I was very bribed by the generosity and loyalty of House, they say, well, I'll just give you a presidential suite in Lucky 38 in advance, you get settled here and call all your friends here. In another passage, he was already bribed by his versatility, when I first decided not to go to him at all, but immediately went to the Fort to first find out what was in his bunker, and he was already waiting for me there and knew why I was here + immediately explained how to do better, deceive Caesar and leave from there alive. And then I realized again whose side I was on))
However, in the first playthrough I still chose the NKR and how I liked this double twist, like at first I was disappointed in House when he asked me to cut out the entire local BS branch (how can I look Veronica in the eye after that?), went to work for the seemingly more compliant NKR, and they eventually send I was killed by House himself, and I was like, "Fuck you!". And yet I made a choice in their favor.
[everything didn't fit into one answer, I'll add in the sequels - for the first time I found out that there is a limit of 2000 characters]
In this way, I got myself a double headcannon. Let me have a male Courier for the NKR, and a female Courier for the House, while their backstories are also different. Do you remember Shelter 11? One of the best stories in the series (I won't spoiler it). So, my Courier would be the only survivor from there, and what happened there would perfectly form the basis of her personality => would be the reason why she basically survived there. In short, she does not wish harm to anyone, but understands that man is a wolf to man and this can be used to advantage. Before meeting with House, she stayed away from all factions, even when they were shooting in front of her - why interfere if you can wait a little and get involved? It's the same for quests. If you can get nice things from both, without directly harming anyone - why not? Well, then it's House with its extremely comfortable conditions and creating the impression of almost the only competent manager in the wastelands, who has pre-war knowledge, a powerful economy, and an army of robots. He may be an autocrat, but in the current conditions there is no better alternative, especially since he does not interfere in the lives of those who work for him until suspicious and potentially dangerous activity arises, as in some casinos on the Strip or like the Brotherhood of Steel... the destruction of which this time was also beneficial to the Courier. Oh, there's such a powerful lesbian drama with Veronica unfolding that even right now, show the writers of the series - they'll tear their hands off.
In short, it looks like this:
The courier contributed to her separation from the Brotherhood of Steel. She had previously ousted the former Elder, bringing the blockhead Hardin in his place so that Veronica would not have so hard time leaving the Brotherhood. In the end, for Veronica's sake, she achieved the best reputation in the Brotherhood, so that later she would not suspect the Courier of blowing up their bunker. All for the Courier and Veronica to be together, despite the death of all her loved ones. Moreover, she herself likes to live in Lucky 38)
Well, the NKR, unlike the Legion, were still more sympathetic, at least in that it would still be beneficial to keep in touch with them (which House understands, judging by his terms of the surrender of the NKR in the end), so they were released in peace, and even Boone, as it turned out, did not mind.
This raises 2 questions:
1. What will happen to the Vegas economy in season 2 of the series if the NKR is in decline, and they are just the main clients of House
2. What about House himself, i.e. which ending of Vegas was recognized as canon? So far, I'm inclined to believe that his ending was chosen (I'm only in favor, because it's from my favorite passage), but after the events of the game, anything could happen, up to the murder of House by the Courier himself, if he suddenly decided to transfer power to Yes-man (i.e. himself) - then Hank, who went to Vegas, would catch a hard surprise. Well, it's not like the Legion to be reborn again. Although it would be fun to watch it. In short, let's see)
Поэтому если бы я в том мире жила то ни тех ни тех бы не выбрала. Хаус что для меня лично, что для моих персов очевидный выбор. Меня не интересует экономика, но просто что чел довоенный(!) гений, грубо говоря, потому что насколько я поняла он не просто лицо РобКо, но и сам робототехник, т.е. это прям можно реально инфраструктуру поднимать, будет он ее поднимать или нет это вопрос конечно, но что ни НКР, ни Легион ничего подобного предложить не могут это факт, тот же Цезарь лучший ум Легиона и он даже автодоком пользоваться не умеет, не то, чтобы собрать его с нуля. Плюс Хаус вообще и является причиной почему Вегас стоит, если помните он ракеты сбил своим личным ПВО, так что заслужил я считаю)) В плане личного общения Хаус не слишком приятен, я бы не сказала что меня подкупил чем-то, чисто прагматизм, он в потенциале наиболее ценный союзник.
Понимаю о чем Вы, там вообще ИП на минималках, все всех хотят грохнуть, хотя что забавно Хаус ни Кимбала, ни Цезаря грохнуть не хочет, вот это я понимаю уверенность в себе! Вот Ваш Курьер-женщина это просто мой Курьер, я так всегда играла что и нашим и вашим как можно дольше пока квесты уже не дойдут до точки невозврата))
Ну а что, попробуйте написать в Беседку предложение сценария, думаю после успеха сериала будут только рады еще что-то снять, кто знает ;) Что она по-сути ее семью, как Вероника БС называла емнип, убила в тайне от нее и теперь счастливо живут - достаточно жесткий твист.
Interestingly, the collective image of cities, plots and artifacts could well be written down as a plus, as following the spirit of the series, and as a minus (which you did). Or the brotherhood - why is it a minus at all? we just wanted to consider them cool guys for a good cause in the first parts, but it wasn't so obvious there, as lits noted.
Overall, I think Nolan, Joy and Howard DID IT. In general, the creator hardly has more than one or two brilliant ideas on his life path. Howard has had the same approach to game design since the days of Morrowind, from there all these "oblivion with guns ", Nolan and Joy have construction on the way to solving, a kind of wild West world with radiation". And for some reason everyone condemns it, but is it so bad? Especially if the idea evolves (okay, in the case of Howard, you want him to walk faster, but the person is tired, you can understand). Or here's Woody - he shot his 50 films, and everything, in fact, is like "Love and Death " 71. So is Clint, and Ridley, and Bergman, and anyone. We don't really care about a lot of things in life, if you think about it that way.
And here the guys did not set the task to replay the game, but to capture the feeling of the world, recreate it extremely realistically, convey the spirit. I think they did it - I'm sure those unfamiliar with the series will run to steam or console stores (the main thing is not to go beyond 76), and the fans got high from the fanservice (although with such a level of meticulousness it's even blasphemous to call it a fanservice, too filigree work)
We just got stuffed because of the abundance of content. I'm fine, the rest are looking for cons
About the collective plot, yes, it's more of a minus for me, I wanted something new, by the way, when shooting, it was possible to circumvent game restrictions, such as the number of non-inscriptions per square meter, i.e. it could be a full-scale war or a full-scale city, as they mentioned about Shady Sands that 35k people there it was, but we didn't see more than 50 at a time on the screen. Thanks for adding 2 more POVs, they diluted the plot quite well, that was something new.
About the Brotherhood... Well, everyone misunderstood me. The brotherhood is a cult of assholes = the truth and a plus from me. The brotherhood reads some prayers and walks with censers, and calls the knights "my Lord" = what the fuck and minus from me.
I agree! I also mostly liked what happened in general, there are more complaints, there is more to praise, but the Fall is still an RPG, here I also make a discount, Cooper is closest to my style of play, and thank you that he is, but if only there was Lucy/Max, which is not really mine at all, I would not take my playlist into account when evaluating it in the same way. I'm glad that you didn't lose face after all and made me happy, not upset! It is clear that they tried, and did not do it on the dump. Personally, I didn't expect to replay the game, namely the feeling of the world, it was cool to see things like Shelter and Power Armor in reality. I would say that they created their own spirit, as each part of the series has its own atmosphere, and I consider it a success and even better than if there was a copy of some part. You're right, I hope we don't have FO4 SE/AE waiting for us now after this series?
>>I hope FO4 SE/AE is not waiting for us now after this series?
ahaha, they have already announced a free update for the end of April with the long-awaited 60 signatures on the torrent gene and even a small quest line (something about the enclave), as I understand it, they rolled out a sale for the series.
Okie Doki, so we are still waiting for SE/ AE :D
>2. Is the brotherhood some kind of cult with monks? I'm glad that assholes, the canon is true here.
Another fallout specialist who has only seen fallout 76. Knights, clerks, paladins, elders and other religious stuff didn't bother you in the games, but do men with censers bother you here?
By the way, I thought that the squires invented the series, but no, there were squires in the games too -- in particular, in the three-piece Maxon was a squire, and then the main military commander, elder and chief of the Pridven (in the four and beyond).
But what you thought that the squires invented the series is just more likely to talk about you as insufficiently feigned, let's say, because yes squires are in games, it was not at all surprising.
>and not to leave the Shelter every time
It's not every time, I remembered Nevada myself)
And the previous 3 addons are trampling a narrative path to it, each of which tells its own story. I highly recommend it, in general.
Although I myself am also more inclined to the principle of "show, not tell", but it is within the framework of cinema. In games, it is more important to me that the story is interesting, thought out and well presented on its own + does not interfere with the gameplay, and ideally that they work in synergy, which NV also copes with quite well. Starting even with the fact that from the very beginning, no fate of the world depends on you, because for most you are just a nouname corpse without deadlines (only one securitron makes sure that the Courier somehow gets to the Strip) => you have complete freedom of action and decisions. Quite an elegant solution for both gameplay and story, as for me.
And, by the way, I no longer remember such precedents for 4 major story addons to come out in such a period of time, besides being so different in gameplay and atmosphere + with stories so closely intertwined, also taxiing to the Courier's backstory and leading up to the events of the main game. Which was developed in a year and a half. Obsidian could once afford to create their own magnum opus in such a time.
А вот что судьбы мира от ГГ не зависят это то, за что я Фолл очень люблю как раз и тут все части такие, даже если есть дедлайн ГГ не решает судьбу всего мира как это часто бывает в РПГ и/или фэнтези, взять те же Свитки опять, ГГ спасает мир. А в Фоллах все так локально и именно что со свободой действий, единственно что НВ как раз весьма линейно структурирован, например в 3 нас на середину карты кидали и иди на все четыре стороны, забавно слушать истории типа "я вообще случайно на отца наткнулся бродя по пустоши", а вот в НВ высторили дорожку по которой мы должны следовать, условно пройти можно, но через касадоров и когтей, которых специально для преграды и поставили в choke-points, чтобы мы шли линейно. Сам сюжет поиска и является этой дорожкой, хотя весьма очевидно что в то скполение небоскребов на горизонте нам и нужно.
By the way, I did not install that mod, I went through 3 and NV separately and modified it, but there is a mod that allows you to transfer the appearance of your hero from 3 to NV.
The market decides
There is an opinion (seen on reddit) that the idea of a Volt-Tech dropping bombs came from a cancelled 2000s movie. It was planned even before the release of the second part of the game, and a draft version was written at the same time. In it, the creator (caretaker) of shelter 13 dropped a bomb and provoked a Great War. The full version of the script is online, including in Russian.
Maybe the divorce factor?
At a children's party, it flashed through the conversation that the Cowboy needed to pay alimony. The sinister corporation has embarked on the next stage of its sinister plan. And one of the tops had a child in the wrong place. But, the plan is unstoppable.
No luck. :-(
In the second season they will tell)
что-то у них случилось. на этом празднике обсуждали, что Куп подрабатывает, чтобы алименты платить.
gt; In general, it seems to me that everything just did not go according to Volt Tech's plan, at least because the bombs fell when Coop and his daughter were at a birthday party
This, by the way, is also evidenced by the fact that even Mr. House was literally 1 day late with his chip, i.e. it could have been unexpected for him that the bombs would fall a little earlier
Of the advantages, I am ready to highlight the maximum attention to detail in the world - decorations, various objects, TV commercials, comics - they were very meticulously transferred to the adaptation, it turned out perfectly.
The music for the series was written by Ramin Javadi, but even without him, the series is full of cool compositions, like The Ink Spots – I Don't Want to Set the World on Fire.
Of course, the current state of the NKR and the way Shady Sands was treated were upset. In the morning, of course, I saw the stuffing of people from reddit, that retcon was made, something was canceled, but no. As a result, all the events that happened to the city were explained, saying who did it and why.
Some questions were raised by some computer chips inserted into the series. At the beginning, a machine gun cannot hit the doctor from the Enclave, then the paladin is caught on a hook, then the steam pack instantly heals all wounds. I understand that this may still work in games, but in the series it should be shown a little differently. Well, in the piggy bank of questions - it is not clear how Moldaver lived up to the events of the series, nothing was said about her cryofreezing.
Oh yes, the rejuvenation of McLachlan is some kind of shame, well, similar things have already been done in TV series, why it was done so terribly is not clear.
In general, this is not a film adaptation of any particular part, but it was pulled from a lot of places, as Sweet-Sweet noticed. There's a chip, and a father, and a freeze. Well, some locations are just a hodgepodge of Bethesda games, as if they wanted to please the fans of the games, but come on, it's not critical. As an adaptation of a series of computer games, it turned out quite well.
We are waiting for the second season.
In general, even if the quests for the NKR took place in New Vegas, it says in plain text that the NKR has become sluggish, mired in corruption, has stopped caring about citizens for real. She, like the Brotherhood, has lost her ideals. And what would be the right plot move in this case? All empires fell, but many revived in a renewed, evolved form.
And here we are shown the "good" NKR sheep fighting for a good goal, the remnants of their former greatness, with this cold fusion core. I think this is a logical development.
In general, I agree, the NKR has really become a clumsy and complex machine, it's just that it started well.
Todd just took a good chance to erase the long-standing ent from black isle.
Tired of hearing about Todd and the NV he hated, Todd always respected the original dilogy and admitted it more than once. He had great respect for Obsidians, who were not so white and fluffy (the eternal story about the lost prize due to two points on metacritic also filled his teeth)
In general, arguing with an orthodox quasi-religious organization "Witnesses of the second Coming of Black Isle and Obsidian" is more expensive for yourself. You will add any little thing, well, like the glass outside the shady sands crater is not broken - everything is not canon, the gazebo is a sucker, a hack. A cold head should also be turned on sometimes
Well, since you suddenly enrolled me in a sect, I can't help but ask: how many folds did your tongue count on Todd's anus?
by the orthodox quasi-religious organization "Witnesses of the Second Coming of Black Isle and Obsidia". That's about where you ran out of arguments and you moved on to discussing me, not the subject of the dispute.
Another soy snowflake, which, being unable to defend its point of view according to the facts, turns to insulting the interlocutor, and, having received a natural response, screams about toxicity. You're ridiculous and pathetic. Oh, I'm sorry. YOU are ridiculous and pathetic :3
There are many ways to get personal:
- if I were an arrogant schmuck, I would go to your page, look at the ratings for your series and say "you're too flat a guy, what can I argue about?". But I didn't get personal, and I just say: when, in the terminology of Kinopoisk, there is 0% closeness of interests (except for wiretapping, and who doesn't like wiretapping?), constructive dialogue is possible only with mutual respect, and there is no smell
of it here - if I were one of my kents, with whom we have been hanging out since the beginning of the noughties on
- if I were, as you say, a soy liberal, I would say that you are a scanty quilted jacket, violating other people's borders, but characters like you, this only provokes
- at the very least, I would make a joke in response about the leasing services of your imaginary girl (imaginary - with a hint of incest, of course, with the show-off that quilted jackets are usually offended by life, and are looking for the realization of their greatness with turns "once again", "learn history", "it's clear, another soyboy / liberaha" and so on, but for some reason they still don't give them, and there are no real friends nearby), but I don't know, maybe you are already married and with children, all such a respected cupcake and just I like to get fucked up when someone is wrong on the Internet.;;
- maybe it was not obvious, but I attacked not the personality, but the idea: fans of the original dilogy are biased - they were fascinated by the depth of the study of the world, having cemented the image of the world in their head. This image couldn't help but develop. So, for example, the sunset of the NKR was outlined in the unreleased Van Buren- it's not the amateur showrunners and Howard. The ending for House in NV is most likely canonical (which is a shame - he's an asshole)
, they don't tell us ANYWHERE how many people and at what level of development the NKR (not shadisands) was before the bombing. We don't even know if all 30-odd thousand residents from this sign were destroyed by an explosion - they could have fallen off, it's just a sign. Stagnation has set in since the heyday in fallout 2, then the state of the center on vestkost is little known to us, what scattered cars and traces of agriculture, damn, farming should remain there - an open question. Of course, it would be desirable for showrunners to reveal this or at least not show it incorrectly in the second season, but so far there are no contradictions
- even if the creators made a mistake and got it wrong (which, again, is not confirmed by anything), I believe that the issue with the remnants of the empire and the mandatory showing of this in the episode where we saw Shady sands is far away not central to lore. And in general, any such argument individually does not prove the stupidity of anyone, it only proves an error. With a critical mass of errors, reliability is violated, this was not the case here. Armed with this logic, you can calculate so many percentages for both the second foul and New Vegas, even if it's a disproportionate ratio of people (since we don't care about the restrictions in film production on props, why should we care about the limitations of the engines on which the games are made? It's unbelievable!)
4 (75k),
NV (20k),
3 (6k),
1 (2.5K),
2 (1k).
That is, 96.6% of the total mass of those interested went to the top four. With the caveats that this is online, not sales, and that this is only a PC (there are only four offline parts on the carrentgen). That is, I would absolutely say that 1% of users went to play from the beginning
Another interesting infographic: troika and NV had a peak online in July 15th - before the release of the four, everyone watched the trailer and began to go through both parts. There are values 2 times higher than those that I indicated above, 10k and 30k, respectively.
The deuce has the peak online in its entire history now, and the first one - in the 17th, when it was distributed for free on its twentieth anniversary.
In general, it is known that some of them definitely fell off. At least according to the series, some of the survivors of Shady Sands are sweetly praying and smearing ashes in the 4th shelter
But after all, Mr. Twin Peaks to us with scary eyes for-foreshadow-il "oooh-oooh-oooh, she's really no different from me" when the three of them were chatting with Mr.
It seems to me that this series handles its loaded guns too skillfully for them to just drop this line, so we are waiting for the second season.
The events of New Vegas are canon (and no one threw anything away), and the inscription on the diagram "The Fall of Shady Sands" means the fall of the city in 2277, not the bomb itself. The bomb fell immediately after the events in New Vegas, the year was not named, but apparently it is 2281-2282 approximately.
As if Blade Runner (1982) was filmed by Disney.
Todd's hand is noticeable, of course, but it even helped. For a fan of the franchise, it's fucking awesome. I read on the Internet that some smart guys thought that Vegas was deleted from the canon, but actually chronologically the series after it and F4 is already underway. It's just that apparently it wasn't Mr. House who won the battle for Hoover Dam (WHO WAS SHOWN HERE DURING HIS LIFETIME AND THIS!!!!!! WOW)
The densest 9/10. I just didn't have enough mutants, the super mutant was only shown a corpse in a piece, the Claws were teased only with a skull at the very end. I hope they will rehabilitate themselves in the second season.
We live in a great time, video game adaptations are amazing and cool. Old Uwe Ball must be in complete shock.
gt; It's just that apparently it wasn't Mr. House who won the battle for Hoover Dam
So on the contrary, apparently
Straight fire, a lot of references, a lot of canon, gun battle scenes, rocket plot, the ending promises no less epic ties for the second season. Well, they can, when they want to!
In general, I really love the claims "they were shot wrong!", which is very popular now.
Take, for example, the three-body theory book - so someone doesn't like the Chinese version, someone doesn't like the Netflix version, others shout both options are shit, not like in the book.
Well, don't look at what to do. The market probably has little to lose from the stifling condemnation.
Only the first part had some kind of completeness, but it was very different from the current Arbor universe - there the dead world was finally dying, turning into something completely obscene, and the protagonist partially stopped this obscene, and it did not end well for him. And then there will be people, ghouls, brotherhood, then more super mutants will be brought in, maybe if you're lucky, everything will boil in an endless cauldron of fucked-up adventures.
I was pleasantly surprised, good job.
When is the second season planned there?
P.S. I hope no one gets inspired from corporations and starts building shelters. ))))
Amazon already has storage areas all over the world, who knows what's underneath them...
I only played the third and new Vegas games when they came out, not that it went down, but the atmosphere of naive fiction of the 50s went down. Here, too, according to the atmosphere, the robot brain is just what you need. The Ghoul line is straight buzz, pure Rory from Doctor Who
A strange but compelling mix of thrash and fantasy. I liked that the level of cruelty and madness corresponds to the apocalypse. I looked at it in one breath. The music creates an awesome atmosphere. It's not a masterpiece, but it's very close to it.
Overall, it's not a bad story, we're waiting for the second season)
To begin with, how we are introduced to Lucy — like, well, I pumped myself a perk for shooting, took dexterity, but did not gain strength. A Ghoul joke on the topic: "all sorts of shit will distract you on the way." Again, the idiocy of this final brainiac "stand still, I need to enforce the directive! Why it never works." And the scene in shelter 4 where such a... fuck... well... uh... But okay, I've already started a peaceful passage anyway, Soryan. Plus, this doctor with a choice, who exhausted my nerves in the first foul: "well, look, I can put cheap implants for you, or expensive ones," and you're like, no... Well, damn, I don't know what to choose. Well, it will definitely mess up! What to choose. And here this fucker is gorgeous too.
The only downside is that for some reason they did not do how the heroes vacuum the locations, taking cartridges from the corpses and checking all the garbage cans for whatever was there. Well, that's a plus... now this series is canon. What can I do (although the question is on the topic: we still don't know who blew it up first, we were just told that the business wanted to do it, but they never showed what they did)
I am glad that the events take place after all the parts, i.e. what the brotherhood will do with infinite energy is at the discretion of the screenwriters and gives free rein to thought, and, also, does not bind to any part of the game.
Yes, there are annoying actions of the characters and stupid chewing of the main intrigue at the end, but otherwise everything is fine.
And as for the disadvantages, they all come from the games of the gazebo and the lore rewritten with it.
No one caused rejection, interesting questions remained, we will wait for the second season and answers.
As a fan of the series, who played a bunch of months back in the first parts, I dreamed, of course, of seeing a film adaptation of my favorite universe, but unfortunately I saw the same glamorous post-apocalypse with laughs.
The main disadvantage is that there is not enough pessimism, oppressive post-apocalyptic hopelessness, and the devastation that will follow a nuclear catastrophe. The visual is good, the universe was transferred in great detail, but the atmosphere that is felt during the game is not felt (I am silent even about the second part, it does not smell here). In short, I don't really believe it, although there were good moments in this regard. By the way, the inspection of shelter 32 just reminded me of Foul 2, something like that was in the spirit of the first parts :) But for a rather short moment.
There are very few locations, so despite all the detail shown, they did not actually introduce the post-apocalyptic world itself. With a few exceptions, all secondary characters are as secondary as possible and do not play any role, you immediately forget about them. In fact, they showed the drama of the main storyline, that's all, and the world of the game is much deeper.
In general, I do not regret that I looked, and I expected a worse result, but I cannot say that it is noticeably catchy. However, I will be happy to watch the sequel.
There is a good (as for me) example of a film adaptation - The Last of Us. Perhaps there is not as much in common with the game as in Foul, I did not have time to play, but the series itself came out atmospheric and exciting. And quite deep, since the locations are well developed there, not only visually, but also in terms of participation in the plot.
In the Foul, almost everything seemed rather superficial. The location is kind of big, but they use literally a couple of scenes in some parts. Except that during the inspection of Shelter 32, there was a slight smell of a second Foul :)
For example, when Coop and Lucy met the ghoul in the hospital, they showed the entrance to the hospital and the room with the ghoul. In the last location (the Observatory), they showed essentially a courtyard from above and a room with essentially all the main characters. Yes, the visual is very good, but there is no sense of volume, complicity, like some kind of sitcom :)
P.S. More action scenes are some kind of Bollywood :)
I don't know about Lastofas, I'm not a fan at all, I'll see when / if they make a deepfake with the face of another actress. I watched the first episode, it didn't go far, I shook it further, I got the impression of some kind of studio series a la Sabrina (in terms of budget and quality of semka in the sense), only a post-episode
1) how did the main training program live up to this time? Was she frozen by wolves? Why would they do that if she was against them? Did you freeze yourself? Whose resources? An enclave? It is still not explained
2) why did she fuck up synthesis? Like, so that everyone has energy? Like bs won't hide, well, bs has captured this generator, who prevents them from blocking everything back now?
3) why was the ghoul looking for a thief, they weren't enemies in the past, she just showed him the truth about his wife. So I also killed two guys to find out where she is.
4) why is there such a strange cult in shelter 3, again, of this formulation? It is clear that she was an important person in the SHS, but still strangely they almost had an orgy there.
5) why did she leave Lucy's mom in such a state? Like I loved her, but why make her suffer? Peek-a-boo?
6) well, last but not least, again regarding this lady, we are kind of told at the end that she is actually good, so why would she and some fierce raiders kill a bunch of peaceful people in Lucy's shelter if she could just as well tell all the locals the truth / just steal the caretaker without blood. Were there raiders or homeless people from the NKR with her, or are they raiders?
In short, this woman is the main one who left the most mysteries behind, died and that's it for now.
Seriously. The 1-5 question has no answer, I hope that they will explain it to us in the second season.
Regarding the 6th question, there is not even anything to say. Nothing is clear at all. Why did the 32 shelters kill each other? The experiment was connected only with the appointed managers, and not with psychotropic drugs.
Maybe this madam is just evil, and you shouldn't look for morality in her. The fact that at least someone is alive is already good. Yes, figs knows him in general.
2) Well, yes, so that everyone has it. And why should the Brotherhood block it, if there is, like, eternal energy? You don't have to be greedy about it. Although, with that grandfather and his arguments about power...
3) Didn't the Ghoul want to find out from her where his wife was going? He seemed to be saying something like that.
4) Maybe she promised them eternal energy?
5) Probably so that there is proof of Hank's lies. And the feral ghoul seems to lose his mind completely, there is nothing left to suffer.
4. She, kmk, adopted "mutants" (and the offspring of those crosses in the 4th volte) as normal members of society. I gave fusion the reactor and didn't touch them.. Maybe that's why they orgasm.
It's a great moment! Who cares why they stopped? Maybe he broke their template, stood up outrageously, in a Western way. For the same reason that in movies they run ahead in shootouts, and do not hide in shelters 99% of the time, as in real life
But about the ghoul, yes, I think you can believe that they were taken aback by his arrogance and did not react immediately.
if it bothers you, I won't do it anymore) I just read all the comments on the series, my eye caught on.
>the crazy denouement about the fact that vault-tec themselves took America and Shady Sands
is not true, I repeat, it was never claimed anywhere that Vault-tec bombed America - only had such an intention, and not the fact that he managed to implement it. A bunch of docks in the terminals of the first fouls tells us not only about expos, but also about connections with all major corporations, first of all, RobCo, REPCONN and the government.
about bombing Shady Sands - the NKR is the main political force after the destruction of the enclave, if the goal of Vault-tec is world domination in post-military America, what's wrong with this motivation?
And along the chain - already the blunders that you are talking about do not break the plot, do not contradict the canon.
>The trend towards stupidity is progressing.
this cognitive distortion used to be better. Let's open the list of TV series of the 90s and look at the number of works with a good story. And not just by the number, but by a fraction of the total number. It's insignificant, offhand early Sorkin, Lynch, Simon, in the late 90s - HBO came and distributed it to everyone. Yes, now netflix is chopping content, not art, based on algorithms, with cliffhangers and a liquefied structure, but it essentially lured away all the same productions that created the same consumer goods for broadcast channels.
In the book Amusing ourselves to Death (1985), Neil Postman complains that TV killed a complex narrative structure - they say, at a time when newspapers were the main medium, dialogue and the length of passages in it resembled newspaper columns in structure - it was easy for people to communicate like that because they consumed information so much. Everything was shortened with the advent of the telegraph, and then, with radio and TV, it was generally vulgar and stupid.
Many reviewers say that in the era of Twitter and tiktok, it is more than relevant that people have stopped perceiving the text. Okay, maybe it is, another question is what to do about it? Howl at the moon, how stupid is everyone? Inadequate. To require the creators of multimillion-dollar franchises to make lengthy monologues on plausible backgrounds? For me, it all reminds me of the fight against windmills.
The last thing about the foul show and the writers is imagine that your task is to please fans of isometry, fans of the gazebo, new Vegas, newcomers who have not played in the franchise, not contradict the upcoming fifth part (and Howard misfired them a lot with this) and at the same time make a fresh fascinating story in a vacuum. Does it really seem legitimate to you to use the word "stupidity" in the aspects that you have cited?
About the study - can I have a name? myshous does not like links, but I have not seen this. I saw a study where IQ decreased in Norway from the 60s to the 90s, based on environmental factors (agenda, as you say), and the general trend to increase IQ from the 70s globally by 0.22 points every year. It is interesting to look at the correlation in the context of developed and developing countries, etc. I would superimpose these graphs on life expectancy, on quality in different countries, on mental health and the level of emotional intelligence (which is no less important and more difficult to measure).
I do not deny the problems - I myself see wild schools completely, in well-off areas, in good clothes, and I think "we were not like that". Now very disturbing videos on YouTube are increasingly appearing from friends in our country, in Europe, and in the USA. Teachers, unlike politicians, who always blame violence in games, look at families and the indifferent attitude of parents, at the infantilism of millennials. The parents who are accused, in turn, throw stones at smartphones and tik-tok (as in the tenth they threw in anime, in the noughties in nickelodeon, in the nineties - in teletubbies, eternal history).
I'm not saying that there is no problem, but the reasons have little to do, in my opinion, with the plastic armor in the fallout series, or with the shiny trinkets. Or in chat gpt, calculator, internet, smartphone and more. It's just that the strategy of grumbling at stupidity doesn't work. Try to show by your example the viability of a reasonable approach to the life of a young growth - this works, but it is not such a trivial task.
The script is a multilaterally complex thing that is rewritten ten times (and in such complex projects, I'm sure that much more) It's like an algorithm. I don't see how your criticism of the Fallout will stimulate you to consume more complex content, unfortunately - but I can easily imagine how it will anger and set you against. But okay, something has become very stuffy, I will suffer a dialectical fiasco with the lexeme "I see that we cannot have a smart conversation"))
Gorgeous in his stupidity?...
It is difficult in your right mind to advise an unprepared player today from the start with the original first foul. But they haven't come out yet, alas, and they may waste another couple of years.
Therefore, I would recommend buying on PC 3, NV and 4 (there are sales on steam right now). I would suggest starting with the third one - even if you end up liking new Vegas or the four more, it will be much easier to go like this. Be sure to download the Fallout3 WinXP patch from nexusmods com-7-8-10 Multicore Threading 4GB LAA with 4GB FOSE Setup - otherwise it will be blunted and crash, and enjoy a smooth game with it. By no means play on ps3, this is the most terrible port of both 3 and NV
An interesting plot
I read almost everything as in the game
I sometimes felt Spanish shame for the heroes🤣🤣🤣
But it will not be shown until pip-chad (even) or pip-sister find the 31st vault.
Wherever Pip needs to be written Volt 😔
Kane, of. youtube: the first 2 episodes, very praises
Avellon, of. tweeter: so far, he just asks not to spoiler him
, the rest are silent
I looked at it during the day and I don't regret anything)
In some places, it even seemed that the development in the series was so dynamic that I would like it more than "one of us" (Which had a lot of stuffiness. Please don't throw tomatoes 🥲)
The only irritant for me was an absolutely cardboard Maximus with an eternally offended face, it constantly seemed that he was about to cry. I was mad at him all season and in the end I was glad when he seemed to have died. And he's not dead :(
In general, I'm really looking forward to the new season!
The last of us is so miserable and boring that the igrofilm on YouTube looks more interesting. We would have reshot the cut scenes from the game 1 in 1 and it would have been a good series.
The Fallout series is better by all accounts. Still, to remove various illogical stupidity. However, the series here is such that maybe in the second season it will be justified somehow and it doesn't seem to be stupidity anymore.
/// they don't have anything against women, like///
I just wanted to ask you a question. And in the game, the Brotherhood has no celibacy vow. Well, all these religious teachings like that. Fast, read Our Father twenty times and so on.
So there isn't?
1. Dumb dialogues, plot and characters. It's immediately clear that bethesda and Amazon had their hands on the series (the recent guys won't let you lie), so such a low level of quality.
2. About the transukha as part of the Brotherhood of Steel organization, which is extremely intolerant to mutants and all kinds of deviations, I already wrote above, it's still funny.
3. I don't like Rick and Morty, so hearing Jerry's voice in Shelter 4 was like a blade on glass.
4. The very arch of Shelter 4 is absurd and devoid of any meaning - I consider it a filler.
5. Too much retro music and too little ambient. Fallouts 3-4 are similarly overloaded with such music, which, in comparison with f1-2, somewhat spoils the atmosphere. But it never happened to enjoy the talent of Ramin Javadi, really.
6. The character of Goggins is somewhat contradictory and illogical. He is an obvious villain - in particular, he kicked the unfortunate kid off the farm in front of his bati - so his alliance with Lucy at the end looks somehow wrong. Well, it's clear that he was playing some kind of character of his own, and not Fallout's.
7. The escape of Benjamin Linus looked very funny - in the scene with the turret, which could not hit him at point-blank range, they probably wanted to show how well he pumped Dexterity :D
8. The actor playing Maximus, well, no one at all.
9. The choice of equipment for shooting is not very clear - there are a lot of aberrations, blurring at the edges, the picture is not very good. They probably wanted it for the atmosphere, but I didn't appreciate it.
2. The brotherhood has become, in principle, very strange portrayed. Even if, like, they've already gone into moral decay and everything has fallen down. Some schmucks who can't even afford to make normal toilets. It seems that they are trained to be assistants to paladins, but no one knows what to do and what awaits them.
6. Well, the Ghoul has been looking for a family for 200 years. His wife and daughter are apparently also frozen in some kind of shelter and he wants to find them. Over the years, he has clearly changed a lot and on the way to this goal, it is not necessary for some kid from the farm to take revenge on him and stop him. Lucy is not a competitor to him, you can somehow use it for your own purposes, well, like he got into it like the daughter he is looking for. Like in The last of us, a frostbitten man who calmly kills people right and left eventually gets closer to a girl, because he had a daughter, etc.
I would say that an incomprehensible series has been released. And not as obvious trash and fumes as Twisted Metal. It seems that there are interesting moments with the same 31 shelters. But just for fun they take and add shelter 4. It's impossible to look at it seriously. Well, still, it's a fallout cosplay, like all the themed products of the Gazebo.
With nothing to do, you can look like a Mandalorian.
It could have been much worse, it's quite watchable here. Actually, I put all series 3 on, because it's not really junk, but there's nothing to admire either.
Even the Shrike from the Chronicles of Predatory Cities has more humanity.
Dad is also a vegetable - instead of slapping his son on the head and thereby saving him, he just stood and watched, although, according to the ghoul, he had participated in shootouts with him earlier.
A strange scene, in general, I did not enjoy such character development.
Let's say he stunned him and left, leaving him alive, then what? The kid finds him after a while and shoots him in the back, what kind of character development will this be? Fucked up imo, he's just adapted to the wasteland, kill or be killed, in your version he would choose to be killed. Dad, as I understand it, did not see what Cooper saw, namely that the kid was about to pounce on him, so dad seriously thought that everything was fine.
I think it's a good scene, so imagine that I'm this kid and as you said, this guy fell into the house, told me that he killed his brother. Can I just let my brother's killer walk away? Even if it costs me my life? Here everyone has to answer for themselves, I understand the kid, but the outcome is natural given the situation. He could have kept silent and survived, but would he have been able to live knowing that he acted like a coward and let his brother's killer just walk away? That's why I say that Cooper is not a villain, because after the kid, he could also decide his father and sister, suddenly they would also take revenge or something else, but he did not see this in them, i.e. he did not kill just for the sake of killing.
The juxtaposition of the uppity wholesome "golden age" music over the savage reality of post-apocalypse world provides a much needed contrast
Play Fallout 1-2, which, unlike 3 and 4, have the status of " legendary" - you will understand what it is about. There, by the way, retro tracks were played only in the intro and outro, and the rest of the time the atmosphere was pumped up with high-quality ambient.
Honestly, I'm thrilled with the first season. Despite very minor flaws or lapses, the creators exceeded all expectations. Respect and gratitude. I'm waiting for the banquet to continue)))
The season turned out to be great. Characters, costumes, development, graphics - everything is great. There will obviously be a second season, and I'm really looking forward to it. In general, it is rich, beautiful and interesting
I watched with pleasure, the references were pleasing, and they didn't even look mediocre!
There were, of course, various mistakes, but I just forgot them, because I enjoyed the series!
Well, Ramin Javadi is as good as ever!
In the end, I also thought, it's a pity that this is a TV series, I would have played such a story myself! Well, New Vegas at the end is just wow!
And what about the dog???
I didn't play the game, but I waited for a reason, I watched all the episodes during the day and I liked everything)
I saw very few references: a shepherd dog and a boy in the refrigerator, and a revived volt-boy. Experimental shelters are default, like ghouls, like kernels, ncr and caps. So personally, I didn't have enough plot intersections with games anymore. These hooks would take up 5% of the timekeeping, but at the expense of memories they created a deeper dive.
I didn't like the open landscapes. Of the familiar mutated animals, only cockroaches.
8 episodes, but the season is not much remembered, it seems to be a reference these days, but the common goal of all the minor main characters somehow belittles their importance. Again, wishes: more independence, like in Game of Thrones, when the Snow guards the Wall, the Lanisters have their own worries. And so they are companions with a very poorly developed motivation, well, it is impossible for an hour of ethereal relationships to go a full-fledged path from "I'll kill you " to "come with me", too deliberately.
Here is the same cowboy, damn it, he ran half the film after his head, then after the heroine, if his claim is in the end: "where is my family" - released into the air by her father. Why did he exchange it with two suckers in the market, if in his perception it is the main key and a guide for communication with a person of that era. How, after living 200 years in the wasteland, he does not know where the observatory is located and who lives there, there is also a whole city that the incubator girl found in 2 accounts.
after all, his storyline in the series did not begin at all with the fact that he was sitting in a coffin?
Why would he need Lucy to get information from her father? He didn't give him any information with her either, just left her there and ran away.
plus, it caused confusion as a woman who drowns for cold fusion, light in all the houses of the wasteland, in fact world peace, shot half of 33 shelters for the sake of capturing the caretaker, who was silent all season, and in the end, without torture and proper motivation, gave out all the passwords in a minute, when in fact they could just take him away a daughter under the resettlement program after marriage.
In general, visual is the least of the problems nowadays, but with the story, script and plot in such a rich world with a lot of loyal fans, they could have done much better
About the massacre in Volta, she came pretending to be a raider and with a gang of raiders. Perhaps the disguise meant that it was necessary to kill someone, but the raiders - don't get it. Or maybe she just considered the residents useless NPCs who are not important for her story and goals (the lives of several dozen for the lives of many and all that). Otherwise, she would have just come on her own behalf.
at the same time, meldaver only needed a password from the caretaker, well, in fact, after killing 30 people, she would have cut off his daughter's finger and received all the information, and in the end even this was not required, although the ionizer was in her hands.
In general, I have huge questions about the setting of the plot, personally I do not consider it logical and intriguing. In my understanding, thriller moments are needed here, as in lost, and here there is more Myasilov as a duma, and not development as in folk
It is a common misconception that a nuclear war is for an hour or two, and then the end of civilization. :-(
But actually, after the exchange of blows, the war will continue further. And it will last for more than one year. :-(
Factions are also realistic, I think, religion or some other general idea is always very relevant in catastrophic times. The enclave there is "we are the power here, we will restore order", the Brotherhood "we will not allow this to happen again", etc. conditionally calming people, giving purpose and hope in a hopeless time.
But regarding perestroika, here I consider two main issues. 1. What are the real consequences of an atomic bomb explosion? I have heard that it is actually not as terrible as we used to think, i.e. that not a hundred or two years should pass, but there are some real figures, almost in a couple of weeks the horror of radiation should pass, and in five years almost everything is as it was almost, there is no quote, I say it needs to be clarified. In short, if radiation has been a critical factor affecting water, food (including yields), the ability to leave the room, and so on for a really long time, then a lot will depend on the degree and time of exposure to this radiation.
In general, I think it would vary greatly from place to place. The same Enclave had both military and scientists in advance, the Brotherhood had military, perhaps doctors and technicians, too, otherwise in a book, as I understand it. And conditional farmers or accountants are unlikely to have the knowledge to recreate the pre-war infrastructure.
What I don't understand is is she so damn lucky that the wedding request came at that very moment, or did her subordinates sit in the shelter for a long time and wait for the right moment? And if the second, then what, were they sitting surrounded by devastation and corpses, not even tidying up a little for their own minimal comfort? Or did they just somehow connect to the shelter's communication system, and monitor the messages, and return at the right moment?
If it was explained in the series, then maybe I missed it. Or is it just a plot assumption, and it's not worth going into too much?
Why she used raiders and not NKR fighters at the same time is another question, no less interesting. Personally, I am concerned about why she, realizing that most, in fact, innocent residents of the shelter (including the daughter of her beloved passion) may be at risk - here, of course, the assumption is being made, and such a fat one
Why did she use raiders and not NKR fighters at the same time is another question, no less interesting
1. Most likely, the raiders are simply not as sorry as the NKR fighters, especially when they recently lost tens of thousands of people, and Moldaver seems to sympathize with them
2. Even if she had approached them, it is unlikely that they would have agreed to get their hands dirty as easily as the raiders
Somehow McLachlan got to the Strip quickly.
Overall, the season is good.
I hope it will be at least the same in the future.
And not worse, but this is the end of the story in the middle of a word)
I've been waiting for the series for 10 years to wait a few more years for the new season.
The appearance of super mutants and the death claw was not enough (but at least his skull was shown)
I admit that I did not play games (only in building a shelter on the phone), I really like the idea, I decided to watch the series here. The episodes were watched in one gulp, so I even said several times "that the series has already ended??".
Questions, of course, remain after watching. Unfortunately, not all the arches were closed. In general, we are waiting for the second season and hope that it will also be interesting.
Nevertheless, I cannot but mention the main merit in the development of the lore of the universe. We were finally told why Voltek was conducting these crazy experiments in shelters. Finally, there is logic in this. Of course, some experiments were ridiculous and stupid, and they remained, but nevertheless. And they also showed us who started the war.
I was waiting for sabzh, but with misgivings. And he eventually exceeded all expectations.
I dearly love all fallouts in my own way, so there was a serious demand from the show. It's all the more surprising that they didn't just give out the best film adaptation of the game in history, but quite a full-fledged sequel to the universe.
The version with a golden "not a billion ", who wants to create a utopia for himself on mortal earth, through a full-fledged reboot of civilization, as well as cultivating ideal slaves for himself (quite an evolutionary path), fits perfectly into our modern realities and popular conspiracy theories.
Yes, and they brought the main arches together beautifully in the final, the pcm arch of Lucy and the Ghoul.
A pleasant and charismatic cast of characters, excellent visual, soundtrack, and a good script from people who definitely love this universe and understand it. Such a level of expertise is incredibly rare for a modern film adaptation, because they are already used to the fact that the showrunner and scribblers do not care about the source material.
Among the minuses are the unfinished arches of the Brotherhood (not counting the personal arch of Marcus himself) and all this cold synthesis movement, which are simply lost against the background of the main plot and serve so far only to bring the characters from point A to point B.
Well, I was a little confused by the fact that they did not show the danger of the wastelands, where various representatives of fauna and humanoids are at every turn in the games. It is clear that all sorts of super mutants and death claws were saved for the future, but they could at least show some kind of radscorpion once or twice. And then the world turned out to be very empty.
Well, or a meeting with Yao Gai.
And then they seemed to forget that in addition to the danger coming from people, there is also a sea of all sorts of hostile animals in the wasteland and survival is not a joke.
Another thing that comes to mind is her obvious connection with the 4th shelter, perhaps the scientists there conducted some kind of experiment on her at the very beginning, which saved her from aging, but again this is just a guess.
Apparently Nolan and Joy decided to shake the old days, remember their past work, and take a little from the MDZ)) which is even very cool.
I hope the second season will not take long to wait 🙂
Regarding the series itself, of the minuses, I can only note the excessive idiocy of everyone and everything, especially the Brotherhood. Yes, yes, we all know how the games bantered on the same topics, but still not that much. There were also questions about how they showed intelligent ghouls, some of them turned out to be too powerful against the background of their counterparts in the games. And of course it was extremely unpleasant to see what they did to Shady Sands and the NKR =(
Otherwise, it's a great series, I'm really looking forward to the sequel. I really liked the way the scriptwriters are bantering about the current situation in the states - all this naivety of the residents of shelters and kindness to the raiders, a direct comparison with the left agenda and not understanding such people, which many scumbags they protect would do to them if they were left alone
The only thing I'm thinking about now is how all this will affect the further meta-plot of the franchise. I'm afraid Todd has released a genie from a bottle that he can't control, and that can change the ent of the universe much more than he and his Gazebo. But Nolan is still a fan of the franchise, and clearly proved this in the first season with a bunch of Easter eggs for his own, and in general, not with a disregard for the original, so keep your fists
10 NC caps out of 10
I would love to watch a separate series about the ghoul, and his career as a bounty hunter. The top branch turned out to be
Аж мурашки побежали.
In general, taking into account the claims voiced above, you can put a solid 6 out of 10 to the series, provided that the viewer is not familiar with the series.
ps. Moten looks and looks like Denzel Washington more than Denzel Washington's son)))
1. Why didn't everything in this world rot in 2 centuries and how did I understand after several nuclear bombings? All these cars are parked here and there. All sorts of toys, vending machines and stuff? Was there an explanation for this?
2. Why, at the first meeting of the ghoul with the knight, he did not kill him. And in the last one, suddenly remembered the vulnerability in the suit and killed them all there? Even if he really only remembered, there are places on this suit that aren't covered with bulletproof armor anyway. In general, the hero's scenic armor or what was it?
3. As I understand it, the Volt-Tech plan is not canon. And the whole ideology seems to be not capitalism for the sake of capitalism. That is, it is precisely the modern social agenda, judging by what I have read.
In any case, I still did not understand how those smart guys behind closed doors wanted to make money on all this by destroying everything they had acquired, all the comfort around them and all the human resources.
And so the series is cool. I liked the Ghoul from gg, that's really a resident of the post-apocalypse. I have fully adapted. He is consistent in his actions, they are all logical. In the context of the world, he is not a villain at all, almost a hero.
I didn't understand why he hadn't found the entrance to the shelter in 200 years. Over there, the 4th shelter takes over, and there seems to be a connection between the shelters. And the raiders somehow break into shelters. They were recognized in the first episode.
Maximus seemed like some kind of scum to me. He looks like a sociopath who tried to play the role of a knight. His moral compass is at zero. As well as intelligence. The knight's path has passed, now he wants to hang out with Lucy in a shelter wherever.
Lucy is funny. She is still an optimistic humanist, but she has completed a quick course on mastering life on the surface.
It is known where, I saw an interesting comment about this. Quote:
///Well, at that moment he was in a playful mood. The ghoul initially went to the middle of the clearing to troll everyone. And he also played with the little black boy, paying attention that that recruit with a shitty training, and out of a sense of solidarity with the warriors, he might not want to kill him, just interrupted the management of the security forces for 1 poke with a knife. How would it be cooler than shooting at a weak panel. All opponents (counter strike game) indulge in this.///
Please.
In the series, they wanted to wipe out most of humanity by raising obedient greenhouse slaves in shelters from generations of cruel experiments (who will survive and undergo unnatural selection in these experiments), so that they can then remain alone in the devastated world, build the world from scratch the way they want it to be, and manage the way they want. "We will wait until time destroys all our enemies and competitors and sit down to rule, and whoever time does not destroy, we will destroy with nooks" - we have expressed this message. They don't need profit, they need power and a world built on their desires and vision. And when the NKR began to raise its head and slowly flourish, it was blown up, too, because they don't need it, so that someone was formed not according to their will and orders. Most likely, as a result, everything did not go exactly according to plan, but still.
In fact, this is one of those blunders that were generated by Fallout 3, when another company bought the rights to the game and made its own project. That is, in the first original games, there is really little left on the surface that is usable. The real valuable loot there logically lay in some kind of bunkers, underground rooms. And then they decided for the player to make more different loot in supermarkets and other buildings, that's how it was traditionally shown in the series.
Although even in the old Fallout 2 it was possible to find a car, find an engine for it, fix it and use it to move around the map faster) Since three-dimensional games no longer have such a big world, they only have hiking. And cars play the role of explosive barrels during battles: if you shoot at them, they explode and can cover opponents.
So it seems to me, looking back at the games, you can borrow a variety of ideas for the sake of effect, as in Fallout, but it will not always be logical from the point of view of realism.
This is not a simple meager retelling of the game, like the film adaptation of Last of Us, which in my opinion turned out to be quite average. This is a separate work in the universe shared with the games. There is a similar atmosphere, tone, humor, music, locations, but a completely different time and characters. And what amazing characters they are. It was a pleasure to follow their adventures. Perhaps only Maximus upset him, sometimes he did not understand his motivation and actions.
The series perfectly replays many moments from the video game when you have a few minutes of serious drama and horror, and in the next few minutes there is such an absurd and ridiculous situation that you just laugh out loud.
Well, one can't help but say that Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy, whose work I've been following since Person of Interest, were responsible for the series, and everything turned out just fine. A perfectly calibrated picture, an excellent plot that throws twists literally in every episode. The finale is simply made of twists.
In general, for me this is the best adaptation of a video game (Arcane does not count, there is still an animated series), my warmest recommendations to all fans and anyone who wants to watch an interesting series in a very cool setting
To be honest, this Ghoul really pisses me off. Too imbecile. He has endless cartridges for the miracle cannon, one hundred percent accuracy. In complete darkness, it hits the vulnerable points of the power armor. A cold-blooded killer who kills innocent people. I wish him all the bad things.
Although, if you think about it, this is a direct mirror of the characters of the players in Fallout)))
I also note that it is unlikely that the Observatory would have wires capable of withstanding the load necessary to power an entire city. Everything would have burned out to hell.
In general, the last episode is kind of blurry and hurried. There is little certainty
And the Ghoul pleases me) That this is a player, in terms of skills and leveling 100%, but he had a hell of a lot of years to practice. In general, I give a 99% guarantee that in the end Cooper will be the main favorite of the series, there will be very few people who can't stand him, he is neutral, not a villain, until they showed his more violent side, then he will save someone there or something and they will look at him in a different light.
The fact that the ghoul is a villain and a bastard without principles is indisputable. Even considering his sad story about his family and hundreds of years of wandering, there is still somehow no sympathy and sympathy for him because of his vile deeds.
As for the power grid, it's a fantastic modern-style movie, they don't think about such little things. An entire city with apartments with unserved wiring for 200 years after exposure to nuclear weapons lit up at the click of your fingers :D
I would also like a bigger and more detailed denouement - still not such a deep movie to try to think of something.
So what if she's a ghoul…
It's kind of cold on Lucy's part.
12. The authors don't care not only about the ENT of the original fallouts (I've already come to terms with this), but also about the ENT of the Besedkovskys. In particular, Shelter 111 from f4 was for testing freezing people in cryocambers for long periods. Here, volt-tech famously freezes its top managers without any tests for hundreds of years. Very logical.
13. Lucina is kind "godmother" Moldaver aka "you look so much like your mother", who kept Lucy's ghoul-mom out of warm feelings, without any questions put Lucy under a radioactive rapist from the Wastelands, who was supposed to after the wedding" immediately kill Lucy.
Moldaver's collaboration, as a representative of the NKR, with wild raiders from the Wastelands also raises questions.
Wow, and I also swore at the character of Goggins, they say, what an illogical one.
And Moldaver didn't come to the shelter to Lucy and she didn't know that she was going to get married, she doesn't keep track of the family tree. She came to her father, who, by the way, if for some reason you have already forgotten Shady Sense, blew up and killed more than 40k people, including women and children, and destroyed everything. No one was going to choose the culprits. By the way, even these same "raiders" stated that the neighboring 32 shelter was not peaceful at all. It can be assumed that top managers had a whole bunker with top guards to carry out all military assignments. Because just saying that they are the smartest will not achieve anything, you also need to pave the way for those who refuse to cooperate. Those who wanted to take revenge on them were through the roof. By the way, this is not to mention the fact that they were called raiders by Lucy, who had never heard of the NKR before and did not even understand varieties at all.
About Moldaver, they also said that Lucy's mom and the children had left the Shelter, so she was definitely aware of Lucy and her brother in the Shelter and that they were in mortal danger.
The Pro does not understand the raiders - is it probably those peaceful moderate civilized citizens of the NKR who wanted to carry out a humanitarian mission to electrify the city, just staged a peaceful humanitarian bloodbath in the Shelter? Understood, I have no more questions.
By the way, judging by what peaceful civilized residents of the NKR capital did in the Shelter at the wedding, and then in the casemates, then Shady Sands is not really a pity - since the same monsters and sadists lived there and in neighboring cities of the NKR. This is if we follow your strange logic and really consider them citizens with broken hearts :D
They're not looking, they're looking for cons.
I love the atmosphere, that's what they shoot for. What kind of stuffers are you, aren't you tired of it yourself?
True nuka break fans have filed away, if anything.
- All right, then
Of the questions that no one seems to have written yet: if everything is frozen at 31, then who brought such a delightful order to 32 in one night? with:
The Vault-Tec meeting is like a fanservice parade. There is Mr. House, as a timid representative (also joking about the casino), and REPCONN, and references to experiments in shelters, and in general it looks like a fat reference to Dr. Strangelove.
The very idea that corporations had a direct impact on nuclear war is quite in the spirit of the series. In general, I am glad that in the series such an influence was given to Volt-Tech and their pre-war activities.
A couple of small details, like a banner with Sunset Sunsparilla and the code 101097, referring to the release date of the first Folych, also pleased.
Well, a panorama of Vegas and a flight along the Strip in the credits... Goosebumps. And in general, the screensavers and credits in the series are beautifully made, I watched them every time.
Shelter 31.. well, a typical non-control shelter, albeit a bit like 111. Nothing original, but it was interesting to follow them.
Cooper is the pearl of the series, a very charismatic Ghoul, I hope they will pay even more attention to him in the second season.
Why there is a branch about the Brotherhood in the series is not very clear to me, but the Gazebo loves them, so I'm not surprised.
I liked the series as a whole, the expectations were much lower. I will be waiting for the second season.
P.S. I've read a lot of negative reviews and therefore I don't understand why people still expect the Gazebo to be a clear follower of the canon of the first games. After three, four and 76, I can't believe it at all
It's great that you haven't forgotten about the Vegas ticket
I can't call the series uniquely good, but there are things in it that I liked. I hope that in the second season the writers will approach their work more competently.
There were hints of the Vault-Tec conspiracy in previous games.
14. Shelters 31, 32 and 33 are literally in the very center of LA and are not hidden in any way. The master from Fallout 1, it turns out, simply ignores them :D
And why, in S01E04, did the hospital ghoul Roger get killed?
When viewing it, I thought in order to grind it into oriental medicine to enhance Japanese strength. But then it's not displayed anywhere.
Replenish your supplies with them? Bloodthirsty. But then, there was only nothing left on the Ghoul's backpack. Did they tear him offscreen right from Lucy, like hyenas? %-(
Out of compassion? One last help for a friend? But then what's all this for?
I misunderstood even that. The scene was not continued. What's the sex about? Is someone watching this scene more widely than me?
It's enough to recall a pre-war conversation between Cooper and that big shot from VolTek (or West Tech, I don't remember), where they discussed the lack of T-45, which killed a lot of good guys. I think when the new armor was accepted, the military would definitely be interested in whether it had the same defect. I also understand that if fixing this defect could cost millions, West-tech could have greased the receiving commission, but damn, the welding defect does not seem to me such an insurmountable problem.
Well, once again, I note that it is simply impossible to shoot at a moving target the size of a ruble coin in complete darkness. And if so, then it would be enough for the knights to cover this place with their hand. In general, the weakest moment in the series. As was Cooper's sudden appearance in this place at this time. At this point, I remembered the teleportation of heroes from Game of Thrones.
It's a great series! I didn't regret that I started watching
I hope that there will be a continuation.
Plus, this spirit of adventure and exploration, unusual locations that complement the world and stories.
The props work is fantastic. One power suit is worth a lot. The graphon is like in a big expensive movie.
I liked that we carefully developed the universe further in some details, like the same cold fusion.
Well, the application for New Vegas is very interesting. There are even more beaten-down factions and charismatic places. The season was definitely a success!
Very atmospheric scenery, great music and titles that I didn't even want to miss.
Walton Goggins did a great job, both as a Ghoul and as Cooper, it was interesting to watch him.
I'm looking forward to the next season, I want more Lucy, Ghoul and CX404.
The year is 2296. More than two hundred years have passed since the nuclear war. The surviving remnants of humanity live relatively serenely in underground shelters, unaware of how a completely non-idyllic new world order with mutants, cannibals, sects and wars has been built on the surface for decades... wars that never change. Naive Lucy, an inhabitant of shelter 33, who left her native penates for the first time and went in search of her kidnapped father, will have to face such an unfriendly environment. Her path will periodically intersect with two colorful characters: Maximus, the squire (newly consecrated) of the knight of the Brotherhood of Steel, and Ghoul (long converted), a bounty hunter. And all these three, in the best traditions of the Good, bad, and evil Sergio Leone, will with enviable regularity intentionally or not help and hinder each other on the way to the cherished unifying and separating goal.
In short, reader, I watched the series Fallout and I will not play the expert of the franchise... So, a reference to the wrong video game about the post-apocalypse.
In general, indeed, somehow it so happened that, despite my almost thirty-five years of playing experience, I am familiar with the Fallout series only slightly. In the first two parts, I played quite a bit - at that time I was not interested in the role-playing genre, and the three (along with New Vegas) and the four came out when it was getting harder and harder to find time for hours of adventures every year (hello, by the way, bought, but not completed games from Rockstar, starting with the fourth GTA). Of course, some things reached me anyway, but - I repeat - I'm not an expert, no. Accordingly, the opinion will be unbiased, for every little thing that somehow does not correspond or contradicts the games in the series, I simply will not be able to find fault, and, in general, even if I could, I probably would not want to.
These are the amazing times when the curse of video game adaptations came to naught. Sometimes contradictory things come out, and frankly bad ones, but the overall quality has certainly grown by a head in recent years. It's not so scary for your favorite series, as it was, say, in the nineties, when filmmakers (with rare exceptions like the first Deadly Battle) simply did not understand why they love a particular game. And all the more gone are the days when the German Uwe Boll massively bought licenses and cynically laundered money (Nazi gold, yeah) through his adaptations, simultaneously knocking out reviewers for criticism. Nevertheless, I was a little afraid of what would happen with the Fallout. Yes, not only Jonathan Nolan (with his wife Lisa Joy) was a producer, but also a director. For me personally, Christopher Nolan's films, where Jonathan had a hand in the script, are the most interesting and lively. And, of course, Jonathan and Lisa were the authors of the serial The World of the Wild West, the first season of which is one of the brightest, smartest, brain-crushing projects of the last X years on television. On the other hand, they also seem to be directly related to subsequent seasons, which were much weaker. On the third hand, the married couple, it seems, is vulnerable to the West (especially closer to the finale), because they began to engage in Fallout, and Nolan somehow flirted so much in the third part that he did not have time to write scripts. And, on the fourth hand, Nolan is exactly what producers and directors are, but not screenwriters and showrunners. Seeing the final result, of course, I will not believe that Nolan never influenced the screenwriters, but the main ones in terms of the plot were still some Geneva Robertson-Duoret (relaunch of Lara Croft, the first Captain Marvel) and Graham Wagner (the long-running sketch show little known to us "Portlandia"). I would say a dubious reputation. Not an outright failure, but it raises questions.
Nevertheless, everything turned out as it should, and even better. "Fallout" is good at almost everything. Firstly, this is actually a full-fledged fifth part of the game - the action of the series takes place nine years after the events of the four. Yes, I suspect there are some discrepancies with the canon, but while Bethesda, led by Todd Howard, is cooking up a real game sequel, even such a development is bread for fans. Despite the fact that the same Howard was a consultant for screenwriters. This is partly why the adaptation, of course, in terms of style, still tends more towards the later parts of the games. Secondly, "Fallout" works from and to as an independent work. You may not know what was in the games, what kind of constant references to them flash in the frame, but you will have fun, regardless of your degree of immersion in the world created a long time ago.
Surprisingly, on modern TV (and streaming services), it turns out that you can create great things without mentioning the agenda, taking on the main roles of charismatic actors and beautiful actresses. "Fallout" it is difficult to call a super serious work. This is an excellent black comedy with a considerable amount of naturalistic violence (however, there are boundaries, of course). However, where drama is needed, the authors skillfully escalate, and the actors act out. Not to mention the sharp political satire and subtext in the spirit of Dr. Strangelove Kubrick, which is revealed in full force by the last episode (even if such comments look slightly hypocritical from the products of the Bezos company Amazon). However, there will be a place to think before that. This is facilitated by a narrative that not only switches between the three main characters/antiheroes: Lucy, Maximus and Ghoul, but also between two timelines: events before the nuclear war and modernity. By the way, it is in this approach that the ears of the photographer are visible... Jonathan Nolan. One of the main characters, Ghoul, is such a Man in Black from the Wild West World. Just find ten differences (spoiler: you won't find that many). But my respect is to Walton Goggins, he got his own unique PMT. I've been watching the actor since the days of the police series Shield - the man grows above himself without stopping. So, both time lines offer their own set of riddles, which in the end deftly (and logically) intertwine into one tangle.
You won't be bored anyway. There is not a single overtly passing or weak episode in the first season. Somewhere there will be a lot of action, somewhere they will significantly furrow their eyebrows and dump out another batch of questions / answers, somewhere they will hit into unrestrained black fun: whether it refers to the witch hunt / communists in the past or to the harsh realities of the nuclear wasteland, somewhere a new unusual location will be shown or a strange character will be introduced. However, it is not a single plot - the picture looks expensive-rich, one hundred percent immersion, everything is authentic. I can't remember a single frame where something screamed "Naked CGI!". The soundtrack is gorgeous. It is clear that all (or almost all) songs are taken from games, and in games, in turn, they appeared from the golden fund of American music of the forties and fifties. There can be no complaints at all, however, one of my favorite modern composers Ramin Javadi (The World of the Wild West, by the way, yes, he is again], Game of Thrones, Prison Break) I didn't pass by either.
Well, the atmosphere of retrofuturism (as if taken for granted for those who have seen at least one frame from the games) is, of course, very cool.
To be honest, according to the trailer of the series, there was a feeling that everything would work out, but the fact that everything would work out so well makes you believe that not everything is lost on modern TV. And even within the framework of one channel, for every "Rings of power" there will be a "Fallout".
P.S. Something, of course, is not very good hovering in the noosphere about nuclear war, yes. The creators on this topic became animated. However, given the realities, it is not surprising. Let's hope for the best.
Rating: 9 Nuka Cola caps out of 10
-7 minute 38 seconds of episode 1 show in shelter 33, at least 8 children no older than 10-12 years, after which about their existence do they forget in principle how?
-Why didn't Hank MacLean recognize Lee Moldaver, why didn't he have any questions why the caretaker of shelter 32 is not a representative of 31?! (In the context of everything that will be told next, he decided not to spoil the intrigue for the audience.)
-Why does Moldaver need a code, and 100 computer hacking skills didn't help? But the most important thing is that she sat on her ass without doing anything to help Siggi Wilzig (from the Enclave), the fact that the component for thermonuclear fusion in the end turned out to have a whole orchestra in the bushes!
- There is no safety of shelter 31 at all. Go who you want to kill the sleepers, there is zero security. There are no cameras, there has been no connection for 3 years, no one cares, the entrance codes do not change!
- None of the management knew what was going on in shelter 32, so they had the opportunity to put everything in order and, by the way, fix the gateways between the crossings.
- Residents of 32, let's write with our blood that we know a terrible secret, but what kind of secret won't we tell, and then we'll all drink together?
- If you read the Ent, the NKR breathed incense, there is no water, constant crop failures, they are raking in from the Legion, BS and Mr. House's robots. TV series: Voltek- "we have been waiting for 219 years and our main weapon is time, don't let's drop the bomb."
3) maybe he doesn't know them all by sight 🤷🏻 there were quite a lot of cryos, at 31
It looks like someone got a perk "child killer."
And the actor of the main character for the brotherhood, Aaron, is very similar to the son of Mr. Denzel Washington ... =)
What did you like:
Gray morality. There is not a single purely positive character. Everyone has a catch. Except that Lucy is still a sweet idealist, but her character is also being tempered.
Visual. Honestly, I was getting high from the view of the wastelands. I love beautifully shown deserts.
Humor. Oh, yes, black humor is great here. She screamed like a seagull several times.
Ghoul. Awesome character, I love them. Cynical character, interesting storyline, charismatic actor. A complete set for happiness. And Lucy, think about it. You can do better chemistry with Cooper if you're with Maxim. Please think about it.
What didn't you like:
The local world. All locations are within walking distance, as if we use fast movement.
It's too empty. At the beginning, there were at least cockroaches and that amphibian from the lake. Then completely zero. It is clear that they focused on the main plot, and the budget is not rubbery, but I would like to see more different animals. Well, just some bandits, looters, illegal traders. Something that would enliven the world.
Maximus. Potentially, the character seems to be interesting. But how insipid the actor is acting out. I don't know, maybe they gave him such an installation, but in any case it doesn't look very good. And my eye is already twitching when the flashback with him and the refrigerator flashes once again. Stop repeating yourself, please! I also memorized this episode the first three times. Stop it!
I haven't played any games yet. Well, that is, I only managed to set the third fallout, completed training, and went out into the open world. There, some bandits killed me in the first location, and that's my hero's path so far.
Therefore, the series was evaluated as an outsider who was not familiar with Lore. And I got a sincere pleasure from 7 episodes out of 8. Success, I think.
The thrash entertainment bribed me. It's cool that they don't completely slide into thrash, but balance the whole thing with drama.
The drama is certainly a bit boring, but the plot is twisted quite well, it's interesting to watch it.
Definitely waiting for the second season.
The only question is to the translators (and the commentators who followed them) who are about Titus, Maximus - and do they also call Spartacus Spartacus?
200 years have passed, but it works properly!
I really liked the intrigue and unexpected twist in the series with the fact that the owners of the shelter themselves staged explosions.
We would also need a series with a plot: the owners of online cinemas secretly gather with the owners of courier services / marketplaces and decide for their own benefit to create a dangerous virus that will cause a lockdown, self-isolation.
Yes, a whole layer of culture can be sculpted here. Ozone holes, anti-personnel mines, global warming, doctors without medicines, journalists without conscience, peacekeepers for war, satellite Internet for everyone, horoscope, avian flu and there are no numbers. ;-)
I hope that after such revelations, when they revealed how corporations are run in capitalist countries, the series will not be closed and we will see the continuation.
* waiting for the nastiest guys - Enclave*
The series went off with a bang ♥
All the characters are interesting, not cardboard, maybe only Maximus infuriates periods 😄
Well, this is his image, of course))) to do - and not to think)) Character
Lucy has grown up, her brother is also doing well - they found out about everything))
So, we are discussing the Fallout universe. About the conspiracy of the Evil Corporation that destroyed civilization. About inhuman experiments.
The population on the globe in 1804 was 1 billion. Well, there, before the Napoleonic Wars, the population of Russia was 27 million, and France, suddenly, 28 million.
The population on the globe in 2023 is 8 billion. The crazy population growth lasts only 200 years. That is, there has always been less than one billion people.
So, after the nuclear bombing, it became as it always was!?
Canned food has been sitting in Shelters for 200 years in Fallout. There are 200 there, 200 here, and the bosses in cryocapsules, it seems like 1000 years is not a problem. Like flying a time machine into the future. Inhumanly. If you can't win, take the lead.
Are you smart? What a communist series. :-0
Or cleaning robots from 31.
1. How did Moldever herself live for 216 years? It is unlikely that the corporations froze it in 31 storage facilities, but it opposed them.
2.and what kind of joke is this with taking cold synthesis? OK, I get it, Walt tech bought out the Patent and legally banned Moldever from developing this thing. But after a nuclear war, these prohibitions are not worth the paper on which they are printed. Take it and reinvent that synthesis, you're a scientist, you remember everything. No, for some reason we need to chase a ready-made prototype.
3.Well, it's a little funny that for some reason the whole of Los Angeles is powered by the Observatory and for 200+ years all the power lines have been preserved and even the light bulbs are working.
2. The network writes that she only invented the technology of cold fusion, and "Volt-Tech" bought out this technology, finalized and created a working prototype. Or maybe she just didn't have the right funds to recreate her invention.
3. I don't know what kind of technology they have in the observatory, but it seemed to me that it was some kind of wireless power supply system. This is exactly in the Moldaver spirit - to distribute energy to all those in need, and so that no one can control its supply.
Maybe you need a super computer the size of a stadium for this kind of work. Or a nuclear microscope. Or the hadron collider. Or such a small thing as 33 kg of plutonium.
Is it that simple? Nuclear technologies require a very developed industry with thousands of related enterprises and qualified personnel, where can we get this in the post-nuclear world?
On the other hand, there are a lot of questions, and somehow it is unclear whether it was intended by the creators to then resolve them in the next seasons or what:
- why doesn't the ghoul know where his family is, if the last time we see him is after the explosion with his daughter? If he assumes that she is alive, then he himself took her to some kind of shelter?
- what did happen in shelter 32 and why did everyone kill themselves? Who removed the corpses and repainted the walls?
- there is also a question about the ageless (but, apparently, still mortal) Moldaver, which the corporation did not make sense to put in a capsule.
I don't know what my brother will do, but I would wake up all these super managers in capsules and make them figure out how to convince/disable the robot and open the door back :D
Well, the attention to detail is questionable, especially the destruction of Shady Sands and the fall of NKRv 2277, 4 years before the events of New Vegas.
Only the lazy did not understand this moment. The decline of Shady Sands in 2277 was, yes. The destruction of the city happened much later (and according to Todd, after the events of NV, as well as the fall of the NKR)
Moreover, if they had written 2287, there would have been much fewer questions.
gt;6th series, a board in the shelter class. We are watching the series more closely.
So it says on the board that first there was the fall of Shady Sands, and the bomb was later, there is even an arrow between the events.
However, this moment offended everyone that in some interview the authors (Nolan and Howard) said that the bomb was later, Vegas canon, there are no mistakes here.
For some reason, the authors have driven themselves into a dead end, from which they will now have to somehow get out and explain all this. But here the whole series, in general, has questions about the plot and its adequacy.
There are questions for the writers and creators of the series.
Finger the ceiling.
A wild ghoul can be kept somewhere in the basement. This is a product that has been stored for a long time.
But when Lucy's Dad was put in a cage, so that he would play the role of Scheherizade. Here, it's time to get an old friend and colleague out of mothballs. To be in front of this freak's eyes. An element in interrogation tactics.
The time has come.
According to Todd Howard, the story will develop directly in the city. At the same time, the creators of the adaptation will try to take care of the key elements of the game's plot so as not to disappoint fans.
Plus, Amazon rose from his knees right in front of my eyes, because you can whenever you want!
I think this film adaptation of the game is GREAT, bravo!
I hugged everyone who agrees with me )
There were little things that caught my eye ala the killing of Yao-gai (probably the second most dangerous creature in the wastelands after the claws of death) with a van shot from a farting. But it's excusable.
The fanservice was piled up just a bunch, in this series even the robot brain was shown.
Well, Vegas, which was shown to us at the end, is the best of the 3d part of the games. I'm looking forward to it!
But as I understand it, there will be no Caesar's Legion, since New Vegas is standing and Shady Sands is destroyed. Well, or they'll have to replay it somehow.
not really an indicator, that's it...
Я в контексте сериалов которые или сделаны по видеоигре, либо частично к ним причастны.
Ведьмак конечно в первую очередь книга, но и игры не менее популярны у игрового сообщества.
It's sad that we have to wait a long time for new episodes(
The plot is developing very dynamically. This means that there will be decision-making with a lack of time and information. :-(
All these plot arcs or arcs are drawn in the series. (Whatever terms these playwrights use.)
Literally, a few minutes before the flight, the Fraternities became. For Lucy, who is Atamansha Moldiver and her 40-k robbers?
These are the people who broke into Shelter 33, chopped up people, kidnapped Dad. Lucy shot at them herself, fought with a knife and whatever she had to!
Throughout the show, Lucy's worldview turns upside down. :-(
And considering that there are more than a hundred shelters, there may be many such places with suspended animation
* well, you're suffocating in the rocks)))
I enjoyed it
These are interesting answers to some questions
The new caretaker of the 33rd, probably the daughter of a ghoul)
I don't know, since episode 3, she began to think so. And in this episode, I even confirmed my thoughts)
There is only one thing that saddens me... The next season will be released in at least two years....
How long to wait...
If Lucy's father /Henry seems to have been an assistant to the Ghoul's wife. And he's from the 31st bunker. It seems to me that Ghoul's daughter is also from the 31st bunker. Only she looks a little older than Henry. And then she was a little girl.
Does this mean that Henry was in suspended animation longer than Betty
Damn, that begs the thought)
well, maybe Betty is her middle name, and she changed her last name because of marriage, for example.
In the first episode, we see Cooper picking up his daughter and riding a horse in an unknown direction. And it also says here that he divorced his wife.
Now Cooper is a ghoul who has been living for many years and does not age
And where is his daughter?
It can be assumed that his daughter was taken away from him, and that no matter what he found her, her name was changed
It was most likely taken by his ex-wife, who is some kind of big shot in Volt-Tech.
And her partner, namely, comes from the 31st bunker. Is it possible that Cooper's ex asked her partner Henry to look after her daughter, who was given a different name?)
No. There's a different storyline. The big-eyed people saw Betty's secretary in her.
Betty Pearson - Leslie Uggams
Young Betty Pearson - Princess Bey
In S01E08 00:16:24 - 00:17:00.
Which appears in the scene - when Cooper Howard (the future Ghoul) is waiting for his wife in the waiting room of Volt-Tech and eavesdropping, and saw Hank (Lucy's future father) for the first time.
The new caretaker of the 33rd is an employee of Volt-Tech. :-(
I keep going on.
How is it that nothing will change? How about without Maximus? He and Lucy had saved each other so many times. Without him, this whole scenario needs to be rewritten.
It's just that Maximus's rookie life forced him to hide his emotions and carefully filter the bazaar. The audience doesn't like that. ;-D
A great ending! And as a result, the most emotional and informative episode of the season.
All the characters are great. Even Maximus became more or less normal in the end. Finally, we will see the tandem of Lucy and Cooper in all its glory. It will be real like with a partner: when Cooper wants to kill someone, and Lucy will dissuade him. We're waiting.
A super interesting branch with Shelters. And in the end, I'm incredibly sorry for Norm, I liked this character. I hope he freezes himself and someday they will decide to go to the 31st to free him.
"The casino always wins".
Mr. House made himself smarter than everyone else and did not spend money on shelters, but saved only himself and his beloved Vegas.
Ironically, corporations are to blame for all the troubles. But to drop bombs on yourself - you need to be complete geniuses (crossed out) idiots.
Definitely a great movie adaptation. We are all waiting for the second season with Death Claws and Casadores.
The series struck with colorful detail and an ever-moving plot and surprising with unexpected twists.
The plot captures from the first episode - the world after a nuclear disaster, where everyone is for themselves, and only the strongest survive.
I would like to note the wonderful acting, great visual effects, interesting locations with excellent musical accompaniment and a special atmosphere characteristic of the Fallout game series. Great humor that is combined here with incredibly violent scenes and a sarcastic tone.
I am waiting for the second season to find answers to the remaining questions and in the hope that the new season will be no worse.
is the direct effect of radiation (literally - looked at the direct rays from nuclear mushrooms). My daughter did not survive, most likely, he was overgrown
I would rather have a second season
Somehow it is less interesting that all the evil turned out to be in some corporation (or even in one woman)
The series is wonderful, everything is as I love it. 4 stars, not 5 for the two multicolored central pairs of the series, are tired.
I have already downloaded part 4 to the console, I will try again.
Но чисто как фансервис для тех, кто играл в фоллаут - пойдет.
The weather.
The availability of free energy solves many problems. Well, there are watermelons of Antarctica, in year-round greenhouses, and all that. Nuclear water desalination plant, Krasnovodsk city. Endless air, on a nuclear submarine. Production of excess hemorrhoid oil, with a cost of $ 1,000 per barrel. Yet again. How many megawatts does it take to bend the orbits of electrons and get gold out of lead?
Energy is very important! For the sake of such prey, it makes sense to go on a military campaign.
/// they go almost hand - to -hand at point - blank range///
If they had come for the heads, they would have dropped a bomb from each helicopter. And since they came for the goods, so much for the fighting in the corridors. In our reality, everything is the same. You can disassemble a high-rise building from a tank. Yes, even from a cannon firing from behind a hill. And at the same time, there are detachments of special forces officers. "All my life under the dome of the circus. ". (c) For short-range combat, storming houses, hijacking planes, etc.
///ready to wipe out the world with a nuclear war for the sake of money that will lose value///
Not money. The authorities! Money is just a medium of exchange. The right guys will print the money themselves. ;-)
///purely as a fanservice for those who played fallout///
There is an oddity in discussing this artwork. The same people, literally in one paragraph, simultaneously demand compliance with the game canon and realism!!!
Yes, it's fine. The series is pretty cute. You throw watching bad TV shows for 2-3 episodes. :-(
And I didn't play any games. ;-)
The character of the Ghoul is still the same Man in a black hat from Westworld - that's how Nolan likes antihero cowboys with controversial morals, a confusing past and stylish hats.
At first, the character did not delight me, but gradually the ex-Voltboy becomes the central figure of the bacchanal presented. The actor just nailed it, he is absolutely the only one from all over the considerable caste, to whose game there are no questions. If we consider only three lines of formation of the characters, then Lucy is also not bad, the disclosure and development of which is very well depicted by the actress. And if the Ghoul and Lucy have enough chemistry on the screen and the dynamics of their relationship are becoming more interesting, then Maximus is frankly an unnecessary Persian who does not cause a drop of understanding, emotion or compassion. His whole branch is very boring and background. And the way Max's branch was finalised does not cause any excitement or a drop of interest at all. He is perceived as a traitor without five minutes, who, sensing power, will return to the old rudiments of morality.
In addition, it was very interesting for me to watch Lucy's little brother. The smart guy and his final twists keep the interest in the sequel on a par with the journey of the Ghoul and Lucy.
To me, as a person with zero knowledge of the presented universe, the series as a whole was interesting, colorful and absurd. I suppose that's what the authors wanted. I love Nolan, the screenwriter, he doesn't disappoint me personally. But it was very annoying to read millions of comments about how he ruined the canon, what dumb turns, which fallout game is better and other heresy of game fans. Just branches of 50+ comments-disputes which part is better, well damn are you serious?
Finally, I want to note the small but vivid role of Emmerson, who set out on a journey saving essentially the dog and all of humanity. Because I really miss ROI, and I'm glad that Nolan does not forget about the vivid images created in his works.
Each game in the series is, in fact, a great road adventure in which the main character goes from ultra-normis to a seasoned wasteland traveler armed to the teeth. In the series, no character experiences such a transformation, the Ghoul is given to us ready-made.
The adaptation itself is extremely sterile - several of the most recognizable visual images were poured as a fan service, politically correct versions of fractions were included, and voila - it turned out to be a non-fluxized, powder-washed Tide with the aroma of Alpine herbs, a kind of apocalypse: he is completely harmless and does not try to say anything, except for the duty of kicking capitalism.
P.S. I suddenly remembered that four years ago there was a film that had suspiciously similar cinematography down to the palette, character archetypes and even the design of creatures - Love and Monsters. It's all strange.
Please correct me if anything, I'm not a super expert on Laura. Thanks)
A plot mystery. It's not mentioned anywhere in the series. For everyone's joy. ;-)
///What is the probability that this is a VRE?///
The virus of man-made (revolution), ugh, evolution. :-)
It would be ideal if Maximus died, and from the boy in the refrigerator became the man in the refrigerator.
But that's okay too. Before I could think that he needed someone smart around, Dane appeared and instantly got my bearings. Together they will even be able to make something good, if the government does not hit their heads.
It's a straight whole story and there's even a sense of space and time of some kind!
And an absolutely wonderful soundtrack, as I understood from the comments, it is still full of references to the games, but also delightful in itself.
