Actually only thing that it doesn't have are your good guys and the bad guys. Motivations, goals, intentions, events, are left rather ambiguous or open to interpretation, thus people can see what people want to see, and one can only combine that with previous knowledge of Fallout, then to realize how overarching story has much more depth than it would appear..
Other than that, on the surface, where the show is much fun and also distracting, has pip boys, stimpacks, junk jets, unreliable narrators, several factions are introduced or slightly introduced, some hinted yet to be.., shortly said, has everything..
With all that, and with just a little bit effort and luck, season 2 will be another banger..

Fallout is the recipe for how to adapt a video game. A tv show that feels like a video game at the same time. Made for gamers and non gamers. And that is how it should be.
Performances are on point to. Walton Goggins is great. World building is massive and storytelling, while highly accurate to smallest details, and similar to the story for this season that, while wraps its self by the finale, it is establishing overall, serving the purpose for introduction..
Show is very engaging, entertaining and fun, amusing even, also attractive and memorable, while much more intelligent than lets on right away..

Ouality tv, genuine and true adaptation that expands the world. Very well done, and Well Done!
Everything is as should be. Characters we "meet" are exactly as those we encounter in games. Feels like Fallout, and looks, sounds and performs like high quality show. Amazing stuff.
Plot, story, side stories, etc, all spot on.
Athough as first season is setting for a longer series, overarching main story, doesn't rush to explain itself, and instead relies on steady build-up combined with some knowledge of the source material, can occasionally be a slight problem for some. Other than that, no major issues with Fallout TV Show.

Great world building that is quite extensive, while also just a fraction of it all. Visual elements that have world-building purpose, also have story-telling purpose. Daytime or nightime, the ocean, the sun, and various other details combined, that aren't all easy to notice immediately, all have the same purpose, and that joined with how initially presented is developed finally, and also quite ammount of memorable, and some epic moments, as well as action, drama and satire, makes Fallout of those shows with quite high rewatch value.
Top notch TV and excellent adaptation. Season two coming....

Probably the best video game adaptation so far, or definitely, and probably beyond so far. Also adapts and uses the source material in general very well.
True to Fallout games, the vibe is genuine, the feel is genuine, encompasses the essence, has the core of, and knows how to stay at the core. All combined, Fallout show is the definition of understanding the assignment.
Season 1 sets the story and puts things to motion, so the wait for ultimate resolution will be that of several seasons. In addition to that, Fallout isn't of those every-day shows, instead it's different and refreshing. Thumbs Up!
