    I’ve never played a single fallout game or even knew the lore besides its post apocalyptic. Loved the show and it was cool as hell learning about the universe. They told the story well and made me care about the characters.

      Whats great is that the people making the show really cared about the lore of the games, so if people like you who have no prior knowledge decide to ever check out the games, there isn’t going to be an inconsistency with the lore or setting.

      The show looks and feels just like the games. Its great, wish more adaptations had writers, directors, actors, etc. that cared about the source material.

      As much as I liked the show in general, I think the majority of my enjoyment came from much they nailed the aesthetic, so I’m glad to see people enjoying it so much with out that prior experience.

      I’ve always wanted to play them but they’re the only games where I just get horrible, horrible, motion sickness. :(
