I’ve the opportunity to watch it and i want to know if it’s worth it or not, because game-based shows are known to be not that great.
Edit : at the moment i write this, im at episode 3, they seems to have respected the game’s lore even if i disagree with the cause they choose in the scenario to force the hero to left the vault.
So far so good 3 episodes in.
The look and feel of the world is great.
The characters are pretty believable.
Writing is good so far.

Not soap opera-y at all imo, 4 episodes in. It’s great, it feels like the fallout world 100%
Binged, thoroughly enjoyed and now await season2
Finished episode three and it’s good. Credentials: played every Fallout game ever made.
The only i have not played are Fallout 1 & 2
I feel like the protagonist reminds me playing the original Fallout games. You’re on the move and it’s real easy to die. You aren’t some immortal god.
Those are worth playing. A lot more lore in those if you look around.
Basically binged through everything but the last episode and it’s really good. I was skeptical that the concept could even work, but it’s knocked my stupid socks off.
It constantly makes me smile, whether it’s being smart, the actors are giving perfectly calibrated performances, or the action suddenly goes wham-bam VATS over the top.
3 eps in. Happy.
Great show so far. We used to complain about how Hollywood would change everything we loved from a game series, when translating to the screen. This show literally takes place within the canon of the games, and shares every bit of lore and design that games do.
Three episodes in, fantastic so far
It’s very entertaining
I’ve watched the first season (8 episodes) and I think it’s pretty good. I personally think the first episode was a little slow getting into things. If you don’t know anything about Fallout it may be a bit confusing at first because they don’t really explain much of the Fallout lore or how things work in that world, but it mostly all comes together by the end of the season.
Apparently they’ve already greenlit a second season so that’s awesome, I’m just sad we’ll have to wait until probably next year to see it.
If it’s done by the Westworld peeps, i wouldn’t be surprised if there aren’t 2 years between seasons.
That makes me a little more sad.
Binged it in one night, I enjoyed it a lot.
It’s extremely good. They really knocked it out of the park. It’s already been renewed for season 2.
All my coworkers were saying they loved it this morning. Source: Nerdy bartenders.
Watched 6 episodes and I think I’m done. It’s boring and very contrived and simply written. I’m not enjoying any of the characters or performances either
The prop and costume design is well done. That’s about it
Also, they erased the New California Republic despite setting the show in California. Not sure why Bethesda hates ideas that they didn’t personally create, but it’s very off-putting
Sounds like the average Bethesda-Fallout
The NCR plays a big part in the show. I think that revelation is in episode 7 though.
I agree on the plot being contrived, but I still enjoyed it regardless. That could just be because I’m a huge fallout fan though.
I’ve only just got done watching the first episode but I’m really enjoying it so far!
Having a hard time sticking with it, partway through episode two. It seems very tropey and cliched, which I guess is part of the feel of the franchise. For some reason I don’t feel drawn into the story.
