I put sooooo many hours into this game (or at least Fallout 4) and if the trailer is remotely close to the game, I'm stoked.

Have you played the previous versions? I’d say Fallout New Vegas is the best of them.

Super stoked for the show too.

“Silo” on Apple TV gave very similar vibes. Books for that are excellent too.

No, Fallout 1-2 are the best of them. New Vegas is just the best since Bethesda got the IP. The rest are trash.

Nothing about that trailer suggests to me that they've learned any lessons from Bethesda's failure to get Fallout right, incidentally - lots of shooting and explosions and "OH COOL, POWER ARMOR" - but there was so little substance overall that it's fairly impossible to tell. So we shall wait and see if it's good.

Plenty of opportunity to take storylines from the games (again, particularly 1-2, as it does appear to be set in SoCal?) and implement them for a TV show, that translates well. Or equally easy to create a brand new story in the setting. Regardless, Tim Cain's right there, guys. You can just ask him stuff.

Hopefully this show is more Fallout 3 and less Fallout 76.

Hopefully this show has a story and isn't just a bunch of Fallout fanservice scenes thrown into a blender and put on frappe.

Matt Berry as Cogsworth? Walter Goggins as the Ghoul? Yao Gai's fighting Brotherhood of Steel power armor? Mirelurks? Bottle caps? Fallout 3 soundtrack?

Only thing missing so far is a trust Pip Boy.

Just suck into my veins

Looks like Amazon is dropping all episode on the 11th, which is not typical of them. Kind of disappointment by that to be honest, I like week by week and the discussion that follows.

"everyone wants to save the world, they just disagree with how" is so perfectly Fallout.

I was a bit skeptical, but this trailer looks spot on.

there's so many potential stories to tell in the Wasteland... looking forward to this
