I've been playing some outer wilds, but new vegas is tempting me after watching the show.
I am honestly incredibly impressed with the show so far. My big question was how the power armor/steel brotherhood were going to be handled because there is a similar risk to warhammer 40k with the space marines or stormtroopers in star wars were the baddy fascist guys are the cool looking ones that look righteous so people begin to casually associate with that imagery.... which I don't think is bad in a vacuum I just think there is a responsibility in 2024 for artists to not make the system of fascism and conservative violent extremism look sexy lol.
There was a big risk of a bunch of business execs looking at the fallout pilot and saying "that t-60 power suit looks cool, make those guys the main characters/good guys" and the fallout writers would be left saying "but... om... I know they look cool but..." and the business executives would just start impatiently tapping their pencil while they wait for everyone to shut up hell up so they can go back to their yacht.
But nah, it is good and it is subversive so far in exactly the ways it should be. I am not a huge fallout video game fan (though I acknowledge the fallout series is undeniably a massive and well loved series in gaming, and for good reason) but I imagine fallout video game fans must be loosing their fucking minds right now with how much better the show is than it had any right to be in the way only someone who has spent decades as a fan of a game series (or comic book, or book, or whatever equivalent) could possibly appreciate.
Inspired by a true story:
“Hugo Boss began to produce and supply military uniforms for the Nazi Germany government, resulting in a large boost in sales.”
