            The black dwarf was fine and the least of the shows issue. I had much bigger problem with her having no beard though.

              It’s heavily implied she grooms the facial hair, since they mention her mom having a beard, and you can see she has wild sideburns that she trims back. We also didn’t see other dwarf women about (or did we?) I think we’ll see full on bearded dwarf women going forward, but her not having one was a character choice. They actually designed her with facial hair but liked her look without it better.

            I actually loved that show, black dwarves and all. Certainly better than the Hobbit trilogy, and it has promise.

      Once I stopped getting text boxes for my conversations with NPCs and it went Mass Effect style they dicked up Fallout.

      Sounds like you want them to. I will never understand shitting on a product before it’s even out. Not to mention fallout isn’t Shakespeare, it’s not some masterful narrative that nobody could possibly get right.

        Using a thing called knowledge. Might be a new fangled phrase for you. Looking at past projects that multinational companies have destroyed.

        Dragonball z, avatar, a series of unfortunate events. Cowboy bebop. The list is endless. Also didn’t Amazon do fallout 76 ? Which to my understanding is pretty much unplayable ?

        So yeah track record and previous

          I can name a dozen incredible shows that corporations have pulled off too, it’s all a crap shoot.

            True, I suppose it does go both ways. But can you name game adaptions that have gone well from conglomerates that are money driven cesspools ? Run for profit by a lex Luther esk villain ? Who hoards money like a god damn dragon ?

          You don’t know anything about this show beyond its existence and intended release date. The most you’re doing is making assumptions based on other failures unrelated to this project. Dunno where you heard about 76 having anything to do with Amazon, that’s a Bethesda game. And it’s very much playable now after things were ironed out.

            Yeah it’s called speculation. Kinda what we do all day eryday. I know Amazons track record and I know previous games that have been adapted. With that information I can make an estimation. 9/10 it’s probably wrong. Why does it matter ? Kool fanks for info.

    I thought the title was saying Amazon was going to release a video game based on the Fallout series next year and was like “a video game adaption of a tv series adaptation of a video game?”

    I gotta say, the final season of Miracle Workers scratched the itch I had for a Fallout TV show.
