"Is a settlement needing my help?" Absolutely cracked me up 😂
As someone that's played all the Fallouts on release, this Series is Faithful AF.
can confirm.
It does take on some creative liberties here and there, but overall? It's on point in the sound department, and the attention to getting everything to look right is phenomenal.
The only two things that gets me is the BoS essentially be8ng the F4 variant, despite it being set on the west coast, and ghouls needing some kind of radiation drug.
But other than that? It's pretty dang good.
It brings back so many memories of fallout 3 for me, I'm really enjoying the series.
@@terryhiggins5077 We do know some turn feral, but haven't had details before. So once it starts I see it as dementia / Alzheimer's you have your moments when you are truly you then you go away and come back less and less till you don't. So once the process starts this drug is the way they keep themselves sane... but probably doesn't work long term.
@@FloatingInDisgrace not really if your an og fan and played 1 and 2
Did anyone else catch Lucy's beginning speech was basically going over "what makes her S.P.E.C.I.A.L."?
YES!
My God they did such a good job with this!
Yeah, my wife got annoyed as I couldn't stop talking about the subtle hints to the game. Lol.
I know, it’s like she was telling you where she put her first skill points. Perception, intelligence, agility and points into automatic weapons and pistols.
"A brand new fallout story" - Dad goes missing. LOL
Someone or something has to go missing in fallout.
I felt like the first episode's story was Fallout 3 to a T. At least the general idea.
Doesn’t everyone’s dad go missing?
@@sbccmichaelkelly FO4 it’s your son who’s missing :D
@@sketis2012 but he ends up being named "Father"
Was not expecting you to watch this or that your a huge fan. Youre without a doubt gonna be my favorite reacter to watch this
YAY a reactor that actually knows the Fallout universe
“Will you shut the fuck up”
“Definitely not Preston”
Had me dying 😂
They got the lore SO right. The sounds, the objects, even the perks and the way gamers experience the game. And they created a BAMF Ghoul who owns the spotlight.
Also, just so you know, the black leader at the end is the same actor as Bubba in Forest Gump. Glad to see him here.
No shit?! That's awesome.
I swear I've seen him in something else, I just can't place it.
i think he might come back in season 2. i dont think he died there. he just fell in the hole.
Walton fought for him to get cast, because they’re good friends.
@@hengineerhe was in Justified with Walton Goggins too.
I’ve been watching your channels for about 2 years now and I’ve never been more excited to see you react to Fallout
Was NOT expecting this. THANK YOU
I was show is a hit.
76 has an amazing and helpful community. Completely changed since launch. Also, there are throwbacks to fallout 1&2 in here.
Phone game, not a real game. Its just money extraction software; Candy Crush with guns.
This show ended up being way better than my wife and I as huge Fallout fans had hoped, and the fact that they made an original story set in the Fallout universe rather than try and adapt one of the games line-by-line really was a smart idea - it avoids the direct comparisons and also gives fans something new to experience. The executive producer, Jonathan Nolan (creator of Westworld, brother of Christopher Nolan), and the lead writer, Graham Wagner, are huge Fallout fans and their enthusiasm really shows in the finished product - they also did as much practically without CGI as they could, including building a 2 story vault set. Regarding Todd Howard, he was mostly hands off and served mostly as "lore keeper" whenever folks had any questions about timelines or accuracy of stuff and to make sure they didn't conflict with the upcoming Fallout 5.
Yes. and due to Todd involevement the show is officialy Canon to games.
I read this as the show being better than your wife
yeah except you wouldn't be able to make a show thats line-by-line one of the games. Everyone's experience in the fallout games is entirely unique.
OMG I love that Fallout is doing so well, literally ALL my favorite reaction channels are doing it.
If you watch that first scene with the little girl at the birthday party, you can see the white flash of the initial explosion reflected in the glass.
he missed it because he paused right at the flash lol
@@hengineer also easy to miss since we saw several flashes from the cameras with flash bulbs about the same time.
"It just works."
Great reaction, btw.
A total pleasure watching MRLBOYD fan out on fallout.
One of the best shows i've seen in quite some time-can't wait for S2.
also a big fallout fan and im really impressed by how they did the show. cant wait for your next reaction
IIRC, in the BoS, you can't become a knight until you've been a squire.
Always nice to see a fellow Fallout fanboy enjoying the care and attention to detail they put into this show. Cheers my man!
The guy calling him a pinko doesn't mean he's a communist; it just means he was accused and his career went to hell. Happened to a lot of actors in the 50s.
McCarthy witch-hunts ruined 100’s of careers and lives for no real reasons
oh no, he was accusing him, ergo the comment about taking the money
Pinko is like a pseudo commie but not a full commie
Lol yes I thought it was funny how the reactors thought he was communist. However being that the basic look of the Fallout world and tech looks like the 50s, but it is actually in the far future. I was always confused about the 1950s look of the beginning of the games, always felt like the bombs were dropped in the 1950s. Then the game took place in the far future. Fallout 4 takes place in the year 2287, ten years after the events of Fallout 3. Fallout 4's story begins on the day the bombs dropped: October 23, 2077.
Pinko is a sympathizer to the ideology or commie adjacent, not full red but pink.
Part that I thought was super cool: Some of the articles I read said that this show is supposed to take place right after Fallout 4.
At the end of FO4, I could have sworn the Brotherhood people said they were taking the airship back to the west coast.
This show starts, and the brotherhood is talking about how their brothers are returning from the Commonwealth, then the airship shows up.
The airship in Fallout 4 is the Prydwin. This airship in this show is the Caswennan. I suspect this was built from the remains of the Prydwin due to what Caswennan means(it's the bank Arthur crashed his ship upon.)
It's funny I've never played any fallout games but I immediately recognized the stim pack/med kit/healing potion mechanic being brought into the show. So fantastic.
I've only played Shelter and not knowing most of the lore, I'm glad I watched the whole season before coming to this reaction, because there's tonnes of context I wouldn't have had / spoilers for the finale.
if you know its called a stimpak why bother with medkit and healing potion?
So alot of people say not to pull out the knife which yes is true since it blocks the blood from flowing out of you. But in this case its the write choice. The dont pull it out is meant for if your staying in placeing waiting for help to come. If you walk with a knife in your side theres a huge chance you cause worse damage to your self and even make a nob lethal stab lethal as moving around might name the jnife hit skmething vital.
they nailed it
Yes!!!! Wasn’t expecting this from the channel!
Just finished the show and your video pops, perfect. Loved the show!
Tim Cain (credited as the OG creator of the franchise) approved the first two episodes from being at the premier, that was enough for me. He has game dev stories here on youtube as well as other takes and stories.
When he said his Nuka Cola cuff links broke, my immediate thought was, "I didn't know Bethesda made cuff links."
He also has a video addressing criticisms by people who think the show retcons everything. He disagrees, going into unreliable narrators and the fact that even players often run into "untrue statements" in the games as well as open ended games, which ending becomes "canon"
The core tenants of The Brotherhood of Steel are actually admirable. It's corruption among some of the upper ranks and zealousness that cause them to be problematic.
They want to kill escaped innocent synths beside the ones that immediately atack you and non feral ghouls, Supermutants okay exept for a few in Fallout 3, New Vegas and Strong and Virgil in 4.
The year is 2077.
In the Fallout universe, they never invented the microprocessor. Instead, they advanced nuclear energy. That and the fact that they aesthetically appear to be in the 1950s makes it a retro futuristic world.
this series is set in the boneyard (los angeles) which is the setting of fallout 2.
I've always been under the impression that the "future" shown throughout the franchise is how someone in 1955 would have imagined the future at that time. Just the same as how the steampunk genre is the way someone in the late 19th century might have imagined the future. The average person would have only known about the power of the atom for about 10 years. All the magazine articles and TV shows proclaimed it as "the power source of the future" and talked about how it was going to revolutionize society as they knew it, hence all the atomic cars and trucks they imagined would be common in 100 years. Though I've always found it ironic that while they may have figured out how to give a vehicle a lifetime supply of "fuel" they still came up with a design that depended on getting regular fill ups of "coolant" at your local Red Rocket.
That basicaly is that. They use atomic energy and didnt discovered transistors because they didnt needed to. They have nuclear fusion. So everything is still going on vacuum tubes. And that is why most of the things are like that. Ilove Atompunk of Fallout.
yea, a lot of the "world of tomorrow" style stuff from different eras of the 1900's usually imagined the aesthetics of the time with some imagined new technologies.
So stunned with how this turned out, and how you can get the vibe of each game throughout the show. Amazingly faithful for us fans, and grabbing new fans for the show itself. Wonder if we are going to get some busy 76 servers for a while
I have been playing 76 since beta. You should give it another try. It is a vastly different game from when it was released, and really a great gaming community. Getting a map expansion here very very soon 😃
Awesome reaction of my favorite episode of Fallout!!!!!!😊😊😊😊😊
It's nice to see a fan of the games who knows his stuff at least from the Bethesda era reacting. This takes place of course in California so the older history from Fallout 1, 2, and New Vegas are in effect but, there's a few nods and pieces of stuff from the East Coast around to spice things up.
As soon as i finished watching the series installed New Vegas and am currently modding it for a play through
Start your character at 7 Luck and as you level up increase it to 10 with the perk that let's you increase it. 10 luck build while collecting all the armor and weapons that have critical hit bonuses. And of course all the perks that revolve around luck and crits. You can clean house at all the casinos with 10 luck and be rich. If you get 75 lockpicking you can snag a unique .357 pistol in Primm called Lucky very early too. Increases luck while equipped.
You ask very good questions, and some of them will be answered this season.
"I have been unable to find a suitable marriage partner, at least one I'm not" pauses and talks about how she is hot and how couldn't she find a partner and is oblivious to the fact that she ended that sentence with "related to."
Walton Goggins is why I'm here and no I don't know if I'm spelling his name correctly
You spelled it perfectly
He becoming one of my fav actors from justified to this, he pretty good all round actor, i seen him other roles as well which are pretty good too like antman and wasp
@@clintbrew I first saw him in American Ultra but Justified is what made me want to see him in more roles. He's a very expressionate actor and he delivers everything so genuinely it feels like reality at times as if I were there in the room as the scene took place.
Galton Woggins
Ive only watched 1 episode so far and man im loving it i cant wait to watch more
Its never broken, its always a feature! I watched the whole season the first night i was definitely ready xD
Now we need a Let's play 😂
Vaults 31, 32 & 33 are new to the Fallout series, so is part of the canon now. Fun fact: each vault is related to the Bible's psalms
OMG I'm so happy your watching it! I know your a major Fallout fan also. I'm halfway through the season and it just gets better and better. So many refrences and tiny details. And of course Fallout fans know every song that plays. Assuming they didn't do the weird thing of turning off music on the Pipboy. lol. I gave the series so far a 9.0 out of 10. Probably the best game adaption ever. I've got a shelf with Fallout merch. Including 200 caps. :D
Just finished the series and all I can say is, it's fantastic! Love the way they've captured the Fallout vibe! Enjoy the rest of the show👍
@@Sm0kingGun Thanks!
Todd Howard reminds me of a used car salesman. He's definitely a salesman first before he's anything else. It showed with 76.
Same here, i've played all the Fallouts except 76, and Fallout:Tactics. Some of the best gaming experiences in that franchise. But i think the premise is that cold fusion was realized by the 1950s and powers a lot of things, like the futuristic-looking cars .. alongside, of course, the nuclear obsession.
Just hot fusion. Cold fusion is a step up above that.
The collector's edition of Fallout 4 came with a physical pip-boy you could put your phone in and strap to your wrist. If I recall correctly, there was an app that you could use and link it to your game, but it might have just been a map, unlinked.
Barely played the game Fallout but I love the show. Appreciate the reaction, it gave me new info on stuff I didn’t know about
🎵 Some enchanted evening🎵
Okie Dokie... This is going to be a ride.
I am loving the series and although I never played the games myself (I may be changing that in the future...), I did watch both my dad and my husband play them for hours on end. Ghouls are made from excessive exposure to radiation. Feral ghouls become so when their brains/bodies become so irradiated that they lose their humanity and become creatures of pure instinct. So it goes from human to ghoul to feral ghoul. You can see above the grave of the ghoul in this story he has 2 IV bags with orange medicine going into the ground. That serum is to help stabilize him and prevent him from going feral.
you are going to enjoy yourself with this show
In some ways, that beginning (well, ending) with the family party and everyone just going their merry way ignoring the protagonist is reminescent of how (non quest-giving) NPCs act in computer RPGs... lol
I loved in your post recap how you talk about purchasing Skyrim and fallout games multiple times. My girlfriend and myself did a count the other day. Between us we have bought Skyrim 11 times, Fallout 3 4 times, fallout 4 4 times and New Vegas 2 times.
The rule of thumb when it comes to if the explosion is bigger or smaller than your thumb doesn't matter, you can actually be a lot closer than that.
Love the reaction.
Jonathan Nolan is the showrunner. He's the brother of Christopher Nolan and has co-wrote many things as well as being the creator (and writer) of Westworld...which I'd be curious to see you do a reaction for someday.
So glad you are a fan
Glad to see you reacting to my favorite video game series. I also had to start another fallout 4 playthrough because this show. Survival mode can be really fun if you've never tried before.
The Brotherhood of Steel was the coolest in F3, but they were more of an offshoot than a full representation.
lol... the basket ball scene at around 20:00 .... 'throwing bricks at the basket' ... hahah
The main deviation from the real world and fallout is that in fallout the transistor wasn’t invented.
Strong start for the show. The music and environment was on point.
I never played the games, but I just finished the series last night and it’s phenomenal. I was surprised at how layered and complex the story is. Definitely can’t wait for the next season 👍
The setup of this show reminds me of that old show Jericho but nukes went off here and there but nobody had to hide in vaults they just kept trying to survive and no time jump you just find out more about what happened and people trying to survive each other no mutants lol
It TOTALLY looks like Neil’s AFB where the Boomers were in fallout NV. Somewhat ironically, the boomers were former residents of Vault 34.
*Nellis AFB
I’ve never played fallout. Am watching one episode per night with husband and kids who do play it. I absolutely love the show. It’s superb.
34:57 I think the words you're looking for are "it just works."
If I knew you were a Fallout fan I would have sought your react videoes out sooner. Now I have to bing. Love you know the things, the Fallout language.
its all about maxing out charisma and luck, then lockpicking and science.
Betty on the council, is Blind Al.
So like the belt clip phone holder but a wrist strapped Pip Boy that you just snap the ol phone onto and it clicks into place? Like a life proof case? Patent it or I’m sure Amazon has it. Then you can safely walk around NYC on your phone. Unless they snatch your whole arm. But then some tech will be invented to read people’s info from the iPhone somehow. If you invented both you’d be a very rich man or woman.
4:40 "Would you allow more people into your fallout shelter?" - Of course. More food for my family.
watching mrbloyd nerdout over fallout brings me peace... hes basically me. an older fallout nerd haha
Great reaction sir, I would like to recommend the show Justified, starring Timothy olyphant and Walton goggins, who played the ghoul in this show. Sort of a modern Western. Thank you for your content.
Thank you for watching this, I just finished and I’m not ready to be done 😂
You will like it. I'm ready for season 2.
Huge fallout nerd here, theres a few retcons and such in the show, and a few things that were explained that I hoped would forever stay ambiguous in the Fallout universe, but overall this show is awesome and doesnt mess with the story anymore than Bethesda has since Fallout 3
7:20 sounds like they were testing inbreeding and/or close relationships with another vault.
INTELLEGENCE!?!? now i know your trippin!! AGLITY & LUCK MAXED RIGHT OUT THE GATE!!!! sneaky sneaky, stabby stabby is the only way!!
For real though, was surprised your a legit fallout fan, watching you geek out made this reaction so good!! keep em coming brother!!
hell yeah, glad you’re a Fallout fan so I can see some insight on games/show correlation. Nolan/Lisa Joy did my all time favorite shows ‘Westworld’ 🤠🤖 if you haven’t seen that, do so immediately
In Fallout 4, you are able to open Vault 81 despite being from Vault 111, so it's safe to assume that some shmuck, probably a raider in Moldavers gang, had a pip-boy already, and was possibly able to open the Vault from the outside?
In the Bunkers & Badasses DLC for Borderlands 2, one of the missions gives you a shotgun that fires exploding swords. The junk cannon in Fallout might be somewhat more feasible in real-world terms, but it's nowhere near as cool as a shotgun that fires exploding swords.
The CG is really well done in most all of it. Though I think what really makes the show feel more real is just how much stuff is pracitcal. Unlike a certain Borderlands movie coming out this year which is mainly CGI and looks awful.
I loved all the sets, they really captured the fallout feel very well!
As a person that has never played the game... This episode really blown me away! Love this show already!
Go play the games and then rewatch the show cause you are missing TONS of references and easter eggs.
Elder Scrolls VI is coming at some point. Apparently it'll be the first Bethesda game with a new engine as they retired the old one with Starfield. But they already said Fallout 5 isn't coming until AFTER ES6...so we're looking at probably close to a decade before we see it. But there's also been persistent rumors of a Fallout 4 Remaster for current gen systems...so it's something.
Fallout 76 is now good and has a great community. Worth checking out.
I've watched the whole show and was deeply impressed with how well they captured the look and feel of the games--and pleasantly surprised by the story and acting. (Also, the sound design is outstanding.)
An "all-new" story with cryogenic, a missing dad, and dogmeat lmao
They DID nail it though
where's the cryogenics in ep 1? or dogmeat?
just watched the 2 first episodes before watching your reaction
76 is way better now. Great game now for an mmo
76 is pretty fun. It's strong point is the community
Im on episode 3. Fantastic show.
I'm also a fan since fallout 3 as it was my first intro to the series and New Vegas had just come out at the time. Really happy they decided on an original separate story instead of trying to copy one of the games.
I'm only on episode 3 (so don't spoil me guys), but I do hope we get to see more vaults. That was one of my favorite parts of the games was seeing the other vaults, and how they failed...
Edit: I also thought of the boomers when I saw the Brotherhood airbase. But wtf is that "basketball"? they HAD balls. Why the F are they playing with a brick?
After the first episode, this is a great series. And you should definitely go back to 76.
76 is way better than when it first came out, and free to download and play through April 18th.
Also they are releasing a next gen update, with new DLC, for Fallout 4 this week.
When you said we had lore to this, for a second I thought you meant the circle jerk : p I was like... did I skip a side quest?
You're right not to trust overseers its a shame Lucy gotta go through all this stuff for her dad just to find out his true colors and its all for nothing at least she got out of the vault I guess lol
I need more 🔥🔥🔥
If you are a fallout fan, this show will just get better and better as it goes on, and the casting is so perfect.
You have views on Todd Howard that isn't blind loyalty..
I respect that.
Loyalty to Todd? Nobody has that lol
@@Evan-k I mean..
Oxhorn probably has that, unless we've all forgiven him?
(I was underneath my rock, before that we were pulling out his BS about retcons & mods that affected New Vegas to point of believing his own BS).
@@punkdallas1646 what are talking about. Todd and Bethesda are extremely disliked. and have been for probably a decade.
@@Lukas-ht9xm What about Mr.Mattyplays?
A section of people call him a Bethesda shill.
@@punkdallas1646 I don't know who or what Oxhorn is or who Mr Mattyplays is, but so what? Obviously not every single person dislikes them.. Everyone who knows what a money hungry prick Todd is does not like him. And since it's obvious that he's a money hungry prick, that means most people dislike him.
