Not at the rate they are releasing new seasons.

I'm a bit worried about the upcoming New Vegas season. Like many speculated due to the outro of season, it's possible they plan on retconning Obsidians version of Fallout, so depending on how they handle that, maybe it'll be nice to have a show stay on for that many seasons. Either way, looking forward to more Ella Purnell - what a star.

I don't know how you don't retcon Fallout when there are so many choices and endings in each game.

[–] RedSnt 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

It has to do with the years in the games and the show lining up, like why would Vegas look trashed like it does in the show season 1 finale outro if it takes place before F:NV? Mr. House saved Vegas after all. But we'll see what the show does soon enough.

I don't know, I'm personally not really bothered with that sort of thing. Plots can rhyme and still feel similar even if the bears are different. To be honest I don't even remember exactly how S1 ended

Edit: Bears? No idea what I meant to say. Oops.

If you get around to a rewatch, keep the credits running, in many of the episodes there's a nice teaser for the upcoming episode, and the season finale outro teaser rolls into Vegas where one can see broken securitrons.

Well, Beth' has pretty much "retconned" the entire original concept of Fallout at this point. New Vegas kinda tried to cobble it back together, but it has largely gone ignored be Beth'.

They'll ride the cash cow until nothing but crisped, blackened burgers are left

And 4 of them are gonna be good.

An optimist I see.

As someone who has spent ~1 hour playing Fallout 3 and nothing else — great news and whatever they do will be fine as long as it is exciting

[–] viking@infosec.pub 3 points 5 days ago

I didn't really like the first season. There was some good action, decent characters etc, but the story just didn't excite me.

Now I haven't played the games, but neither did I play The Last of Us, and that series was excellent.

I really liked the first season and they've got good source material. Feeling good about this
