Has Amazon released anything that's made it a full five seasons?

So basically they never planned a proper ending for it? I think this is the post that makes me decide to skip it, sorry.

EDIT: Maybe they'll structure it so the ending episodes call back to a problem from the start and all the seasons in between were just side quests, lol.

I though the writing was so bad. Only the franchise carried it over being forgettable. I mean the black main character is so badly written, most of what he does doesn't make sense if you look further then some very flat character development. I hope they can improve and remove some of the cringe elements. I love Fallout, but it has a diffent humor, the show didn't manage to replicate much.

Classic. Downvoted comment expressing dislike of popular thing with no comments responding.

I've only watched one episode but I thought it was ok. There were multiple badly written cringe moments and I thought the director really dropped the ball by not focusing on Lucy in order to end the episode with the wasteland reveal. Cutting to the brotherhood half way through her story was a terrible decision in my opinion. The tension of what's waiting for Lucy in the wasteland is completely deflated before we get there because we've already seen that a society of some sort exists.

Overall there was a lot that I liked and I thought it could have been a lot worse. I like the opening even though I thought it was a bit overindulgent. I liked the casual inclusion of a non-binary character (made me reflect on Fallout's representation as a whole which I feel like is pretty bad in that department?). I appreciated the attention to detail, I don't really give a fuck if they stick to any established lore, I just want to that a lot of care and attention went into the world building. And I liked the fact that the violence was a good balance of cartoony and serious.

Anyways, fanpeople gonna fanpeep. People fucking hate when you dislike something they see as above criticsm. For example; Rogue One is a bad movie, Arcane is mid, BotW is mid. :^)

Creators, "Now let's ruin it by going to the most fan-sacred places in the Fallout universe."
