Some thoughts after watching the first two episodes of Amazon’s adaption of Fallout (includes spoilers)…
Spending 20 minutes rotating pictures of wheelbarrows is an oddly Vault-Tec method of accessing the Prime free trial.
Holy guacamole! I thought the trailers looked good, but didn’t dare hope they’d get everything this right!
Ella Purnel is adorable.
The tension in the wedding scene was nail biting.
I LOVE the fact that they’re playing stimpacks straight. Suffered a horrifying, likely fatal injury? Just grab a stimpack and you’re fine!
I’m pretty sure they did a bunch of shooting in Namibia.
They’ve managed to strike the perfect balance between realism and silliness with the violence. It’s ludicrous, but not so much that it takes you out of the story.
Knight Titus was a dick, even by the high dickery standards of the Brotherhood.
Putting all his points into sharpshooting definitely helped with the Yao Guai, but Maximus probably should have spared a few for the Power Armour Training perk.
The brahmin looked so good I didn’t even register them for a second. Cow with two heads? Yeah, that’s just background.
I was furious when the Ghoul killed Dogmeat! But then he fixed him up, so I shall forgive.
Copies of the Wasteland Survival Guide in the shop – perfect!
I am very much looking forward to continuing the series!
