I'd never seen this before, and its fun to get an inside look into the early lore. They talk about playing pen and paper Fallout to test new perks, I wish I could go back in time and join those games.

Nobody remembers fallout 1 and 2. If it wasn't for Bethesda, fallout would be a dead series nobody remembers. The only reason fallout is relevant and even has a tv is because of Bethesda buying it. It's their series now, and their interpretation of it is the only one that matters.

I don't see how those games being less remembered discredits the fact they had solid writing and plot.

Popularity contest does not correlate with high quality.

I'm responding to people complaining that the show is more like bathesda fallout than the first 2 games. I'm explaining why. Because popularity and mainstream appeal. I'm sorry you don't like facts

Hmmmm. I'm not even complaining about that. Considering you can't roleplay in a TV show, guess the writing can have potential.

Just trying to refute your points about the writing of the games. I understand why the TV show would be based on something that has mainstream appeal. That makes a lot of sense.
