Fallout series

Amazing, this is like a /v/ or /fog/ shitpost come to life. Even the most retarded bethtard fan or Todd himself wouldn't write something this bad, but here we are.
I was right once again, Fallout POS is still much better and canonically friendly than this shitheap. Sure, the game is clearly made in mind for half-drunken dudebros and at times it feels more like a retread of the original title, but at least it's still Fallout at the end of the day and it shows somebody(even if it was only one person) has respect for the IP. Hell, it even has some good ideas, city of Los is just Necropolis on crack but I wouldn't mind it being shown off in another game. Secret Vault? It's Vault 0 with Super Mutants, but it could be interesting in a better game. The soundtrack is also obviously pretty good, even if it would be extremely out of place in any other Fallout game.
What I am saying is that this TV show is non-canon and that you should play Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel for PS2 and Xbox instead. In fact, I think we all need to apologize to it, we never knew how good we had it if this was considered the absolute worst the franchise had to offer at one point.
Now, if you excuse me, I'm gonna head on over to NMA and /fog/. I bet the comments on this atrocity are going to be...spicy.

Not even worth checking out for free on streaming sites.

There's a vanilla solution for that. It's called making Nick your only companion.
Just stick with Dogmeat. He doesn't judge you.
 
@Dr. Ricearoni wrote a very good summary, but here is one from 8chan /v/ for easier spreading, if you're into that sort of thing

In case you're curious, the spoilered image is the man-ass
I've got to say, these two vaults sound like the dumbest fucking idea anyone ever had for a Vault, and we had one where the experiment was just "lol just bring a panther over and see how the residents react!"
The raider vault is just poor man's Vault 3 and the incest one I am sure they only put in so they could have a le funny social media moment when they showed the cyclops(very Fallout thing to have btw, we all know Fallout is a cartoon after all).

Edit: Anon on /tv/ speculates even the official promo art has been done by AI

Slop to the very core, a result of the same careless and soulless mindless corporatism that the franchise once mocked.

Well, that's it then. Thanks Todd, I guess.
The bright news is at least he’s not wearing the skin of the OG fallouts to make his show better. He could just make shameful rehashes of the same (exact) storyline 50 times and ruin the experience of fallout 1-2-NV

Correction: Fallout 76 and Fallout Amazon Series aren't canon
Fallout Tactics IS canon and if I feel generous, I will even make Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel canon.
If Bethesda reboots everything, then good riddance. Honestly, after Fallout 4 the setting doesn't really have anywhere else to go, you make up your own headcanon depending on who you sided with. Let fans make new content and Bethesda can focus on making non-canon spinoff slop nobody but normalcattle care about. I can live with that.
Speaking of fan content, Fallout London is coming out on the 23rd and you can bet your ass I think it will be canon. More than this mess.
 
There’s a tranny in the Brotherhood of Steel.

And no I did not make that shit up just to get an internet brownie point.
I'm sure the BoS would completely accept a tranny into their ranks. They frown on homosexuality and look at sex with utilitarian lense but they definitely would not exile a troon or poon from the bunker.
Decided to look back around on Nexus today and saw a new mod (in beta) called Nova Arizona, that added more to the Legion side of the Arizona River. Definitely would've been worth a try since we're severely lacking any sort of good Legion expansion mods. But I've now lost faith in the project.


"Wow I hope this mod doesn't become a Frontier style fiasco."

"Oh it won't, but here's how it will turn out exactly like one of the reasons The Frontier had its controversies to begin with."
I saw this the yesterday when I was looking at content expansion mods. It looks interesting for sure. I saw that it was nowhere near complete and moved on. This is definitely a red flag. I swear these people are incapable of looking at things from an outside perspective.

Is the Legion a brutal dictatorship who oppress women and minorities? Yes but they can't seem to understand why. The wasteland is brutal and doesn’t care how heckin valid you feel. The Legion is a fodder army and needs to keep its women safe and pumping out more legionaires. There needs to be monolithic cultural because they are a fodder army and are required to sacrifice themselves for the great good. Your average redditard can't understand this because they are incapable of understanding cultures outside of their own time and place.
Also if you still want lunacy, the Enclave page on the Fallout wiki (Fandom version) is considered "fascist", and when you look at their sources for the Enclave being "fascist", it's just Three Dog and Arcade calling them fascist and nothing to actually back it up.
The goal of almost every faction is to bring order to the wasteland. Yes cleansing wasteland of all mutations is certainly evil but not necessarily fascist and there's clear reasoning to it. These same idiots that call the Enclave fascist think the Brotherhood is fascist too. If your friends got torn apart by ghouls, I doubt you would think it's fascist to shoot ghouls on sight. Again, people like this can't conceptualize life outside their current surroundings.
 
The retconning of Fallout 1, 2, and NV from the Fallout canon because of this shit show feels like a giant “fuck you” from Bethesda to the original developers. Granted, you could make the excuse that Bethesda’s games weren’t quite canon-compliant to begin with, but at least they kept their stories based out of the East Coast, rather than hijacking the West that Interplay/Obsidian focused on.

Idk, but Bethesda and Amazon royally fucked up here, considering the TV show is considered ‘canon’ by the creators, so now Bethesda has to go back to the drawing board if they want to make another Fallout game in the future. They couldn’t just give a middle finger to the early Fallout games and its fans, but they just had to dig themselves into a hole as well. The whole thing is weird, confusing, and incredibly short-sighted.
The bright news is at least he’s not wearing the skin of the OG fallouts to make his show better. He could just make shameful rehashes of the same (exact) storyline 50 times and ruin the experience of fallout 1-2-NV
Except the show references the water chip plot from Fallout 1, which again, doesn’t make any sense if it’s supposedly a non-canon game. Also a lot of the weapon designs take their inspo from Fallout 1.

That’s why this show turns my stomach, it takes inspiration from the original source material, then kicks it to the curb and deems it inferior. There wouldn’t be a series for Bethesda to milk if it wasn’t for what the previous developers established, but yeah I guess I should be glad they’re at least not poisoning the og games with this tripe…unless they plan on remaking them at some point. :c
 
If this is true, I don't wanna hear any more "Bethesda doesn't hate New Vegas, you're just paranoid!" denial ever again.
Just skipped to the final episode. Yep, New Vegas has been completely and utterly obliterated. The streets are full of crashed NCR vertibirds and death claw skeletons, the city is abandoned, and nukes are everywhere.

Anyone who ever says Todd and Bethesda DON'T fucking hate Obsidian and New Vegas need to shut their fat fucking stupid mouths. I was SO sick of telling people that Bethesda clearly hated NV only to have people say "No dude they put a ranger uniform into 76, see?"

Todd hates New Vegas and used the television show as an opportunity to erase it from canon to fully make Fallout THEIR IP.
 
Man, the lore wars are something else right now. The new TV show is so retarded that pretty much everyone but the biggest bethesda cultists/reddit/people who don't even play fallout are shitting on it. Even Oxhorn seems to hate it.
The fucking mental gymnastiscs that some people who never even read the Fallout wiki, let alone played the games, are trying to pull with only knowledge they know by osmosis or their favorite youtubers...lmfao
I am gonna need some popcorn for this.
 
Aren't you the guy that regularly has spastic episodes because people like Outer Worlds and New Vegas? Like unironically seething ones?
You're not even a bethesda drone, you're like 3 rungs beneath them, more of a redditor if your "meme"(and your avatar) is of any indication. Keep baiting tho, I'm sure someone will bite eventually.

At any rate, I am having a blast. /tv/ and /fog/ threads are really popping off, now I await the NMA thread to finally finish watching this slop. I very much enjoyed their Frontier thread, same with the one on RPG Codex.
