Fallout is a great series and game. I will certainly follow you guys on this series. However, i would highly suggest watching the show "SHOGUN". That is the show that is going to win all the awards this year. Masterpiece on every level.

that turret that was shooting at Wilzig and the dog is known in game for being incredibly inaccurate so I think that was why they had it be so bad lol kinda cool

Yeah the show has like video game logic all over where stimpacs cure just about anything and you can literally run through machine gun fire. Loving it. Edit; Not to forget the ridiculously large bag of gear the squire carries. Hinting at the unreal amount of gear one carries in games. Brilliant

I've watched the series, and I've watched at least a dozen people watch the series. (yes, I'm obsessed) This is the first time I noticed, that when Lucy is "watching movies with my dad", she's watching "The Man From Deadhorse" staring Cooper Howard. 4:18 This show is effing incredible.

32:03 The earth 's axis was NOT shifted BUT the climate WAS altered drastically. NOTE the Fallout series was filmed primarily in Utah, New York, and New Jersey in the United States, as well as Namibia in Africa where we see the shipwreck and desert scenes like the long abandoned row houses.

[@PhazonInfuser]

Indeed. If the asteroid impact (equivalent to 10,000 nuclear bombs) that wiped out the dinosaurs, or the impact from the protoplanet Theia (which formed the moon) didn't affect Earth's axis, nothing can.

[@BernardoPC117]

11:33 I love the creators of the show embraced some video game tropes like the stimpak that magically heals you from any wound, I think most writers would have tried to do something more realistic, but who cares it's a fictional universe anything is possible.

"I sound like him saying it, Wil.ziig." That's probably because Walton Goggins, the actor playing the ghoul grew up in Douglas County, Georgia.

[@TheOctobersReact]

[@hunzren]

Yes bottle caps are currency. After the war, the water traders got together and discussed the new world currency. It had to be something more durable than paper, plentiful in the wasteland and not able to be easily reproduced. Nuka Cola was the most popular drink in the world, so the bottle caps were the choice for new money. Caps are backed by water the way the US made the dollar backed by gold, giving caps a real world value

[@ircjesselee]

One of the vaults in the game lore was one man locked inside with no way out and just puppets to keep him company.

16:36 It's definitely Pre-war tech. There's not much inventing going on because everyone is too busy trying to survive. There are certain factions that do invent new things but it's rare.

[@folcotook3049]

In some rare cases there are improvements made on top of pre-war tech, but it still relies on what was available from back then. One example is Enclave power armor. The only faction doing real, original research and development is the Institute in the Commonwealth.

The weapon Lucy uses during the attack on the Vault is called the "Syringer". In the game it's a weapon that allows you to fire certain syringe darts that cause various effects to an opponent.

Howdy neighbors! I watched my brother play a game in the 80s called "Wasteland" that is the predecessor to Fallout 1. Myself, I fell in love with Fallout 3, then played New Vegas, and my fiancé bought me Fallout 4. We both just finished this series and I was really impressed.

Caps as currency comes from the original Fallout game (1997). That game takes place in the southwest (like this show). In that game there is a faction called the "Water Merchants." They established bottle caps as currency. You could exchange bottlecaps with them for water, so caps became the currency of the area with water backing it as a valuable resource. #OGFalloutPlayer 😉 "That machine [gun turret] isn't very accurate." - Every Fallout 4 player who ever built a settlement There would be massive ecological change if there was a large-scale nuclear exchange due to nuclear winter, loss of vegetation, atmospheric pollution from soot, etc. Yeah, I'm a nerd for that stuff, even took a class on it in college. "I'm supposed to know where they are because of that donut sign, but I don't." Maybe this will jog our memory: "Sir, I'm going to have to ask you to exit the donut."

Omg, so glad ur doing Fallout. Since Ive been bedridden past few yrs Games like the Fallouts, Skyrim, GTA get me thru each day much like YT. Im on my 63rd play thru of Fallout 4. Love the mods can play different everytime, same with Skyrim. For story I love New Vagas, Fallout 4 for building settlements and for battles and collecting Skyrim. This show is amazing, the visuals r so on point, the vaults, the weapons, the music, the freakin' ghouls, from the stimpak's to the pitboys. The dart gun is the syringe rifle it sh00ts a few different type syringes, to paralyze, reduce damage resistance, etc. Pays homage to all Fallouts very well and I love it.

[@homerj806]

My only assumption about why the turret missed is because when it fires it jostles around making it unstable which causing the targeting system to be thrown off. That is why there is a sign that said "Please Remain Calm" so that the target would just freeze allowing the turret to kill the target. A quick fix solution. Either that or just to honor the players of the game who never gets killed by the turret no matter how many times they get shot by it.

[@TheOctobersReact]

Yeah we loved it. It was just a lot of fun! A ton of contrast on the show

[@SiouxTube]

Series essentials without spoiling anything given the show stays pretty vague but nothing I'm saying here looks like the show will even tackle given it has its own plot line and we're all along for the ride, The year in the show is 2296 and takes place in the same timeline as the games but is the furthest story line in the time line of events of the Fallout universe. Lucy is a vault dweller. A bunch of vaults were constructed before the war to house those financially able enough to purchase a home within them for their family. She's the descendant of the survivors and as vaults go hers is a rather good one and she's an excellent byproduct of underground living as it was intended. Maximus is member of the Brotherhood of Steel. The Brotherhood is a surviving group of humans that were once a large military unit and their families from California that survived the war by taking shelter in a reinforced underground military bunker. They're a technology cult that hoard technology because they believe humanity will doom itself to oblivion if allowed to use technology in irresponsible ways that will domino effect to a nuclear war all over again. They once ruled the California wasteland but, fell on hard times after a series of conflicts with the human settlements that were already developing on the surface. They are being supported by that massive airship you see which came from their Eastern chapter on the East coast(the Eastern chapter is explained if you play the games Fallout 3 and 4). The Ghoul is...a survivor. Ghouls specifically are humans that survived the war by sheer luck. The radiation of the Fallout of the war didn't kill them but instead made them somewhat immortal but the trade off is explained in this show and if you play, well, practically any of the Fallout games you'll get a deeper explanation of their people meeting a lot of them in the wastelands each game takes place in. Also, don't worry about not knowing that much about the games, the franchise, or the lore. This is an original story set in the timeline of that world after all of the games so you're getting a unique look into the world of Fallout and it's told in a way that even non-fans can sort of understand what's going on. It's not going to Mandalorian season 2 you with a bunch of lore details and references you won't understand without context. It's pretty cut and dry...of course, for us in the know there's a lot of issues, debate, and questions but, that's for us to worry and nerd out over.

[@paulf2557]

Goggins as The Ghoul is the GOAT. Lucy is also great - Maximus is gonna take a while to get to know. Fallout 4, 3 and New Vegas are well worth your time. People recommend 1 & 2 as well, but to me they are just too outdated now, even though those hung up on the games lore, love them. I can't even imagine watching this show totally from cold, but to me although some people are peed off about some lore stuff, I think they did a fabulous job, and the 2nd season should be epic if the makers keep it up. Personally, I would suggest reading up a little on the games - at least the bare basics - I think you would enjoy your journey through the TV Show much more. Just my 2 cents anyway. Keep up the great reactions.
