"By portraying Fallout's retro-futuristic, post-apocalyptic US through three different characters, it managed to capture different aspects of the game player's experience, too. There was vault-dweller Lucy, trying to do the right thing and finding that the wasteland made that very difficult; Max, the Brotherhood of Steel rookie, who starts to question his cult's authority and causes a lot of havoc in robotic power armour;"
"The show's first season ended with a revelation about who helped cause the nuclear war that trapped a group of people in underground vaults for a couple of centuries. It also left plenty of questions open for the second season and, this time, expectations are higher. Even being not terrible was a win for a video game adaptation until quite recently."
Fallout returns to Prime Video with a first season that surprised audiences by successfully translating the game's retro-futuristic, post-apocalyptic United States into live action through three perspectives. Vault-dweller Lucy faces moral compromises, Brotherhood recruit Max questions cult authority while causing havoc in power armour, and the Ghoul embodies moral decay in the irradiated wilderness. The season concluded with a revelation about who helped trigger the nuclear war that confined people to underground vaults for centuries and left unresolved plotlines heading into season two. Jonah Nolan co-created and directed the series alongside Geneva Robertson-Dworet, and Bethesda's Todd Howard endorsed the scripts and welcomes heightened expectations.
