Todd last month. Todd Howard says Bethesda's trying to 'increase our output' with Elder Scrolls and Fallout 'because we don't want to wait that long either'. Make up your mind, Howard.

Based on 76, Starfield, and the Fallout TV show. The next Fallout and Elder Scrolls games is going to be a shit show.

What was wrong with the TV show? I thought It was pretty good

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

It is good. It's pretty bland as well, if that makes sense. I really liked it, but I have zero interest in ever watching it again.

I agree with that take. The story was fun but writing was meh.

A lot of the TV show is the world's slowest "unboxing" of the Fallout world. It's a fun ride, but the ultimate reveal is everyone's too busy being out for themselves to make the world better. (Not a surprise to anyone versed in Fallout lore), but without any of the story surprises, lore reveals the acting and story alone aren't really strong enough on their own to call for second viewings.

Honestly wasn't crazy about the acting myself, but took the show at face value. A solid 6/10 for me.
