More video game adaptations should follow the example set by the Fallout TV series.

While not perfect, the series offers enjoyable viewing.

The Fallout TV series on Prime Video, inspired by the Fallout video game series, is unexpectedly excellent.

The television show is based in a dystopian version of Los Angeles and features actors Walton Goggins, Ella Purnell, Moises Arias, Aaron Moten, among others. Goggins delivers a standout performance as The Ghoul. Additionally, the series includes flashbacks to 200 years prior to the catastrophe, exploring his character's efforts to uncover the truth about Vault-Tec and its wrongdoings.

Purnell portrays Lucy MacLean, a young woman who has spent her whole life inside a vault. When raiders kidnap her father, she ventures into the harsh wilderness to rescue him. Concurrently, her brother Norm, portrayed by Arias, uncovers the secrets of Vault 32. Additionally, there's an engaging subplot involving Moten's character, Maximus, a youthful recruit of the Brotherhood of Steel.

The Fallout TV series is filled with numerous enigmas and unexpected plot developments that maintain audience intrigue. Faithful to the established video game series, the television adaptation incorporates plenty of comedy and graphic content, with bizarre humor involving incestuous cousin relationships, excessively violent head explosions, a character who has intimate relations with chickens, among other elements.

The text also includes hidden references to various elements from the Fallout video game series. These include references to Super Mutants, Dogmeat, hacking skills, a two-headed cow referred to as Brahmin, Shady Sands, and the New California Republic, all of which were significant features in Fallout: New Vegas.

Straying from the original script

TV or film renditions of books and video games frequently encounter several significant problems, yet the Fallout TV series avoids these pitfalls by not strictly adhering to the narrative and setting of the original game series. Numerous adaptations attempt to mirror their source material very closely, striving to reproduce a book, video game, or other media forms in a nearly exact manner.

The television adaptation of Fallout is based in the same universe as the video game series, but it introduces a narrative that is distinct and expands on it creatively. This is facilitated by setting the show nine years following the conclusion of Fallout 4.

The TV adaptation of Fallout may have its flaws, but it successfully captures many elements — a sentiment shared by others. Take, for instance, Netflix's version of Avatar: The Last Airbender, which earned a mediocre Metacritic rating of 55 and a user score of 6.3. As a fan of the original Nickelodeon series, I was let down by the live-action remake. The issues weren't necessarily with the acting or CGI; rather, it was a poor reinterpretation of the original show.

Had Netflix opted to develop an original narrative or explore different characters within the universe, its live-action adaptation of Avatar the Last Airbender might have been much improved. However, adhering strictly to the original script while integrating illogical alterations led to a subpar viewing experience.

Without revealing too much, the Fallout TV series cleverly embraces the game's concept of player-created characters and decision-driven narratives, presenting it in an original manner. More adaptations of games and books could benefit from adopting this creative approach, rather than strictly adhering to their original content.

Additional Series Similar to Fallout

When adapting a video game, this approach is ideal. Rather than merely copying the original, it's better to be bold and craft an entirely new narrative within the same universe. While it may seem like fan fiction to certain viewers, I believe this method is preferable to a poorly executed, conventional adaptation.

Prime Video is included with an Amazon Prime subscription, priced at $9.99 per month or $99 annually. Additionally, for an ad-free experience, you can opt to pay an extra $2.99 each month.
