Fallout

After a longer, long period of time, we finally got something that actually is good, and not just said or claimed to be good. Also seemingly, something that can pass and stand the test of time. Although, yet to be seen regarding the latter.

As adaptation it is very true, excellent, not perfect (not convinced perfect exists), but closest to perfect as possible. Just does everything right.

As a TV show it is solid plus, above solid and very good, with some excellent parts. Side characters are not there just for the sake of it. Story is more complex then it seems, combined with exposition reduced to bare minimum, paying attention is crucial, or of importance at least..

Overall, Fallout was, and is a pleasant surprise.

Well, wow. Fallout show is actually great. Production value, sound and set design, acting, all top notch, very good writing too, the overall game feel is with it truly too. Lore is almost unscathed, only fewer than few little things, that more than half of, still are left ambiguous, making the show very true to the source material. Art-style is the mix of all, while FO 3 game and on, with FO 4 prevail, some FO and FO 2 is also included.

Very refreshing TV show, in a way quite different than most TV shows out there, also quite dynamic too, something is going on always, to extent that sometimes "too much" is going on, creating the need to join quite attention with watching, and then to notice and "capture" it all..

In my reviews for S1E1 "The End", and S1E8 "The Beginning", I already reviewed some aspects of this show, that does indirect releasing of information, non-traditional methods of telling the story, and while avoids standard exposition, tells a complex, robust story, covered under what is configured in a way that prompts asking questions, and to entertain and distract.

Now to finish and wrap up my review for the first season, I will add that Fallout show also sounds great, excellent visuals too, as well as the world building. It is really really good and well put together show, as the title for the review states: a delight.

I waited more than six months to write this review. This series is emotional, incredibly well filmed and unbelievably realistic. It shows that those that make games can also write incredible stories. The filmmakers have brought to life a game which has been played by millions of people and made it into a fabulous, scenic, beautiful, incredibly technical movie. I cannot refrain from recommending this series more highly. My only hope is that the production team make another series, well at least one more. It will be a very hard act to follow, and I hope that they didn't use up all of the game resources in making this first series. Bravo!

The world building in the show is very precise.. and ig it would be more accurate and fabulous in the next episode.

You would find no moment that would bore you.

Ella purnell was fantastic in the role and so was walton goggins, the ghoul was like my favourite character in the show.

Depiction of the vaults and how a vault dweller encounters the world above, was very good.

Story sails very smooth, and i think even for the people who know nothing about the fallout franchise, it's very entertaining and gripping.

There's a lot of content that the show could use from the game so fingers crossed for the next season.
