Im only 6 episodes in but Im curious about the inaccuracies compared to the games people have mentioned ITT. I havent noticed anything glaring but maybe I just need them pointed out.

The biggest one is how they handled the NCR.

Which is probably not an inaccuracy

Yeah it was pretty accurate in a lot of ways but inaccurate in others.
My feeling is that it didn't feel like any of the mistakes were malicious. You can tell when writers or a showrunner are actively antagonizing a fanbase but I never got that sense with Fallout.
Feels like they respect and like the source material they just got stuff wrong at times.
Like Wheel of Time. The teleport scene was unforgivable. I never get angry at a show. That made me see red

Which is IMO the best choice to make. To me the fallout world is the star, so making an original story in the world was the best choice.

oh and someone from the games does show up in a flash back cameo, Mr. House.
Holy shit! And people were claiming that the show retconned New Vegas?!

That's not really an inaccuracy though, just a controversial choice.

Hell you half expect it considering how much the NCR troops bitch about the politics back West.

just finished it. damn, i loved it. i couldn't think of a better interpretation of the games in a tv show format. they really nailed down the universe, all the little pieces of detail, without adding in some ridiculous change for no reason. truly a show within the games. also really liked the cast, especially the known vets from twin peaks and the shield.

huge thumbs up from me. i think i even liked it more than twisted metal, which i also loved. i'm just happy they're good. i'm very happy.

They really did a good job with it.

plus it had great performances.

I think Last of Us might have been the better show but Fallout was still great
