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

      Plenty of people remember and adore the first two games, and even tactics. Bethesda’s version of Fallout is great, and so are the originals. Get over yourself.

        Like I mentioned to someone else, fallout 1 and 2 sold 750k copies combined.

        Fallout 3, nv and 4 sold 50 million copies combined.

        I’m responding to people shitting on Bethesda’s version of fallout and wishing the show was more like the first two games, and I’m responding with “most people don’t know the first two games, Bethesda fallout is The mainstream”. Am I wrong?

        Pre bathesda- 750k copies of fallout 1 and 2 combined sold.

        Post bathesda- 50 million copies of fallout 3,nv, and 4 combined sold.

        I mean if those numbers don’t say it for you, I don’t know what will.
