Words for us all to live by, " Look past the genitals."

12:09 What Lucy stabs herself with is known in the Fallout games as a Stimpak, Stimpaks are basically shots filled with a mixture of healing agents, stimulants, antiseptic, blood, and steel, they’re fully capable of healing all to some physical injures (I say all to some because some injures require more than one Stimpak.) these are one of many chems, short for chemicals, you can find…these various chems include Mentats, a pre-War "party-drug" originally developed by Med-Tek, an in game company, for medical purposes, Buffout, a "sports-enhancement" drug popularized by pre-war athletes, Psycho, a combat-enhancement drug developed at the behest of General Chase, that’s something that happens post-war, Med-X, a painkiller found in many hospitals in game, and Rad-X, a preventive medication to be taken before exposure to radiation, when you take Rad-X in game it reduces the total amount of radiation you receive and bolsters your body’s own Radiation Resistance.

YES, GOD!! I have never been more excited for a reaction in my life!!!

[@onebry]

Agreed ❤ this reaction will make my WEEK

[@tea_time_t]

I love Fallout, and I'm glad you're watching this! Your insights are really interesting and fun. One thing: that radiation meter thing is a Pip Boy, which is something all vault dwellers (and Fallout protagonists) wear. It's sort of like a personal computer that contains maps, scans food for info, tracks your vitals, etc.

Happy to see you reacting to this, I love this series and love the energy you bring to reactions! The Junk Jet "baby foot gun" is one of a giant pile of references to the series, instead of ammo it just shoots random junk you've picked up. The opening is set in 2077 - but it's an alternative timeline. Tech focused less on electronics, more on nuclear fusion... Also Fashion stopped for like 100 years apparently 😆

[@andyb1653]

It's "retro-futurism", AKA "Atompunk". It's what folks in the 50s/60s THOUGHT the future would look like. They could imagine butler-robots and nuclear-powered cars, but only George Lucas or Gene Roddenberry would've thought of flatscreen TVs, the internet and smartphones.

[@thatswhyidrink]

Loved your raw reaction and the minimal censorship.

[@caffeinedelusions]

Clearing some misconceptions up. Fallout is the future of an alternate history timeline that split from ours just after World War 2. What you see in that first scene is a retrofuture (a version of the future as imagined by the people of the past) based on the nuclear-powered Americana society envisioned by the people of the 1950s. Electronics are big and clunky, based on transistors and vacuum tubes rather than microprocessors... but all sorts of household gadgets (like cars and toaster ovens) are nuclear powered, there are a bunch of military and domestic robots, media and information is stored in holotapes the size of betamax cartridges, and miracle medicines are available. The culture is intentionally an extended echo of 1950s America, even all the way up to the year the bombs drop (2077). Season 1 is predominantly set in southern California, largely in the vicinity of Los Angeles.

[@wisemoon40]

So glad you’re doing this series ! Okay so the tone of this world is: brutally violent, satirical and darkly humorous…but often has heart. The show takes place in what was California, which is where the first two games were set. It’s a new story and characters but set in the world of the games and is in canon with them. I have seen other reactions from folks who haven’t played the games so I think you’ll be fine figuring things out. Enjoy!

[@scott3484]

its Retro-Future the show starts in 2077 fallouts world is base on how the 1950 saw the future is the fallout world the usa went all in on nuke power so a lot of tec just stagnated why the tv look like there from the 50s but you have robots.

[@maxybob]

At the time of Lucy it is 2296. 9 years after the Fallout 4 game. No spoilers.

[@YTsupportsZionaziGenocide]

Sort of its also a world in which the transister was never invented, meaning no modern electronics, everything uses vacuum tubes instead of transisters, but nuclear power, robotics and medicine is many decades more advanced than we have.

[@johnjones_1501]

The style of the show is called Retro Futurism. It is basically the future, but the way people in the past saw the future. The bombs dropped in 2077, but the shows version of 2077 is what people in the 1950s thought the 2070s was going to look like

[@Fmanzo10]

She says “Finish Him” my brain goes 🎶MORTAL KOMBAT”🎶

[@gottagowork]

In Fallout, when you create your character, you assign points into SPECIAL: Strength Perception Endurance Charisma Intelligence Agility Luck In the show, these consists of 40 points, according to what is assumed to be an official statement. You might want to have some fun trying to guess the stats of the main characters based on what they do.

[@michaelshigetani433]

all of your questions do get answered. Hold on until it's over.

[@pemberliegh]

This isn't exactly based on the games, not like last of us or something, but it is set in the same world the games take place in and the events of the show have been confirmed as canon to the fallout world as the games are. But it's a whole new, original story in that world.

[@toomanyaccounts]

I find it funny how many reactors say it is set in the 1950s when you see a very obvious flying talking robot at the birthday party,

[@EclecticPotpourri]

thank you algorithm

[@Scyth0r]

Watching multiple people react to this show and seeing them make the same assumptions and jump to the same conclusions shows me how well-written the show is. The writers really know how people think and how to lead them in the directions they want.

[@DocLunarwind]

Yup, the writing is really underrated. And repeat viewings really shows it.

[@toomanyaccounts]

sadly there is a whole bunch of dimwits that proclaim fans of the games. whenever I see someone claim it is poorly written I ask them to prove it and they either 1. do not provide any proof 2. what is easily provided is debunked with any amount of knowledge of the games. One example is Moldavor's use of raiders was a plot hole. I was like why wouldn't a villain like her not hire disposable raiders for a operation on a vault instead of using trained loyal followers? she left a number of them behind during the distraction after all to be killed or captured and she didn't tell them anything useful. the raiders were a disposable tool to her. Another is how many so called gamers cannot read a school chalkboard while the non gamers could. no date under the mushroom cloud but an other leading to it from a date means it was after that date. it would be in a lesson that the students would learn the date of the mushroom cloud

[@amirhad6594]

Glad you are watching fallout, you'll love it 👍

[@rileytruax766]

a lot of FPS games have a option to play 3rd person fallout included

[@arsewynd]

As a nod to the game Lucys marriage application is her character stats from the game, science skill, guns, melee weapons, repair skill Norm is my favorite character by the end of the series. Raiders are a surface faction who steal resources from other groups, and raid vaults if they can find open ones.

[@AishaWilson]

That was so smart!

[@Lagartofero]

Hey, new subscriber to your channel. A common thing to get wrong is the year. The actual year when the bombs fall, in the game and in the series, is 2077. Fallout is an alternate history, where the fashion and the red scare happen, not in the 50s but in the late 21st century

[@AishaWilson]

Good to know, thanks!

[@andyb1653]

They've been living in a damn box for 10 generations. Everyone's EVERYONE'S cousin at that point. That's the whole reason Lucy needed to look outside her Vault to find a valid husband.

[@denisestephens1685]

The old woman is Leslie ugums, I am not sure of the spelling of her name 😊

[@Tijuanabill]

I mean....they did consummate that marriage, so it wasn't all bad. 😎😎

[@garfnob4832]

you can play Fallout 1 and 2. they are top down RPGs

[@tea_time_t]

3 and 4 also have 3rd person POV, though it is a little janky. I have a friend who also doesn't like first person and plays bethesda games in 3rd person.

[@garfnob4832]

@@tea_time_t but 3rd person POV would likely also trigger the motion sickness (not just bethesda games) it had to do with your body is telling your brain you are not moving and you eyes are stating you are moving. some brains do not handle the conflict well.

[@christianforsstrom2222]

@@tea_time_t I play bethesda games in 3rd person, there are mods that make it a little less janky

[@DocLunarwind]

Amazing reaction. One point; if you have a sharp knife-like object stuck in you, if you have to move, you should remove it. Otherwise it will continue to slice. Random fact strike 😛

[@AishaWilson]

Thanks for the info and for watching 💕

[@gork8468]

15:36 She's behind a blast door. If ever there was a place to gawk from as an explosion happened, that would be it.

[@denisestephens1685]

Things are not what they seem. Maximum, and the young girl are good friends he wouldn't do that to her. ❤

[@maxybob]

spoilers!

[@wisemoon40]

Max’s friend Dane is non-binary, pay attention the pronouns are they/them. There are women in the Brotherhood (in canon) but we don’t see any in this season.

[@gottagowork]

@@wisemoon40 Any women in the bunkers? I can't even remember. I know of Veronica and Christine obviously from Fallout New Vegas & DLCs. Oh, and I guess quite a few in Fallout4; police station and the Prydwen. Hmm, I don't remember anything from Fallout3. Too much booze I guess...
