MODERATORS
My idea of "way more popular than expected" would be if people who had never heard of the Fallout games were talking about the TV show. I've only seen it talked about in circles that already played the games, or at the very least could give you a cultural-osmosis summary of them.
Which means Todd Howard is suppressed to learn Fallout fans will accept any old slop with the right branding on it.
I think they just expected the show to be clowned on or something. Makes sense when you look at Starfields writing.
it is clowned on just not by enough people
the show is poorly written FNV revisionist slop
but it is pretty tho so ill probably still watch it for the visuals alone
The writing is so much better than Bethesda Slop. That's probably why it was a hit.
