So look…as a sometime writer, I’m all for using 12 words when 5 will do sometimes.
But this entire article is just a dozen paragraphs to say “Elder Scrolls doesn’t isn’t different enough from other fantasy series to standout, unlike Fallout, which was a fresh world on television.”
Give me the money, Todd. I’ll do it. But I’m putting the Lusty Argonian Maid in it.
Is it because the lore of the games includes hella fucked up shit like turning a dude’s dick into a spear and using it to rape a demon to death?
Too fun, would scare normies
Don’t forget the part where they go fight TV in space.
So true, it will only work if in the middle of the series/movie the main character stops under a bridge and jumps to hit their head repeatedly for an hour to power level. And we know the execs won’t allow that kind of true art to exist
A save-scumming wizard could be a great main character.
So…Edge of Tomorrow, but with elves
Only saw the first episode of Fallout, too violent not enough political drama for me
Can’t tell if this is satire, but it does get political and dramatic later in the season. Flashbacks to pre-war seen through Walton Goggins who plays the ghoul. The violence though, that does not slow down and I loved it.
Wasn’t satire, I can see people get murdered for real if I want so it just feels like filler when shows use it
I just get excited when plans are built up and you seeing them unfolding against each other ‘but i knew you would do that’ “but i knew you’d know” or when characters have a confrontation and they have to use side speak
But the Fallout show sucked. It changed the lore of the west coast. Hell, why did they pick the west coast? Bethesda had all of the east coast and the fly over states to chose from. But no they picked the place where the OG games took place in. Man, I wonder why.
The main lore change people refer to generally seems to be them thinking it’s set decades earlier than it is. Part of the plot of the show is working out why the NCR isn’t the dominant faction anymore, and plenty of characters remember it, and used to live in Shady Sands. The status quo changing years after New Vegas was set doesn’t mean that the events of Fallout 1, 2 and New Vegas didn’t happen.
