Why no one made a fallout universe based TV show?

People like that shouldn't gather so tightly into a room

this desu, bethesda should have sold the rights to obsidian, or just hired the guys from obsidian. i hope 76 shows them that there's a limit with how much you can fuck with a franchise.

I would rather see a Canticle for Lebowitz three part miniseries.

Fallout world is too grim and NCR being a paradoy of america would show how shitty democracy and capitalism is

>90s style episodic structure
>The protagonist gets into wacky adventures in the wasteland
>Each episode has some moral commentary

Shame the company is complete shit now.

they'd be too scared to go down the interplay route and probably just make something with the same atmosphere as the bethesda fallouts (3 and 4)

because the show would probably be filled with bugs too

they wouldn't know how to balance the goofiness and nihilistic dread and probably end up just going with the former. and if they chose the latter it would just feel like a cw drama. if they tried to mix it it would just be rick and morty tier cringe with no nuance.

do you really think the mad scientist trope started with rick and morty?

Pretty much if you are gonna do a movie on Fallout you are gonna have to ignore the politics and world building side of Fallout because shit is way too dark shit like Ceasars Legion women only slaves would turn of SJW.

I can see fallout being sort of like a zombie movie. Guy is in the happy 1950s nukes fall, he freezes himself gets resurrected in the future, goes out in the world escapes the hordes of mutants zombies etc, becomes part of a small society, it gets attacked by some evil people like ceasars legion, brother hood etc. He survives somehow, plans his revenge builds a super tank or something and one man takes out that entire faction. Final scene is the fortress being over run by mutants zombies and mutants and him having his final stand before getting rescued by the Brother hood in space marine armor and setting up the plot for movie 2.

Biggest reason: Video game shows and movies have been renowned for being absolute dog shit, or just extremely meh. Mostly because video games and movies are two entirely separate art forms with loose similarities. Movies being something you have zero control over, games being things you can directly control, even more so if the story is dynamic and choice based.

But yeah, what this user said in a way The Fallout world is dark, like really dark. It's one of those things that a lot of people would be turned off by if they truly showed the reality and harshness of the world, they'd have to do a lot of toning down to avoid it not being appealing to the masses and more so just horror and dystopia fans, therefore it loses it's monetary value.

Though Fallout: Nuka Break was fucking great, so I dunno. Maybe im just talking out of my ass despite being a fallout fanboy.

There are many variations of the mad scientist trope, but this one is a carbon copy of Rick.

Come to think of it. What are some movies and series that can balance goofyness and nihilistic edgyness?

>Dude! Christianity bad!

A show would need defined roles, unlike the RPG. If the show made them the main, or good, faction it would be difficult to get away with what they do.

Pretty sure i Remember a necrophilia and rape quest in New Vegas.

ghouls aren't undead

You and I both know it would be a shoddy attempt because it's based off a video game. In all honesty, it would probably end up like that Assassin's creed film.

It would be kek though

Something like that I think. There's a lot of really grim dark paths you can take in 3 and new vegas, new vegas especially. Not so much in 4, but fallout 1 and 2 were also filled with really psychopathic choices and whatnot.

Overall, if a fallout movie or show were to be made, it wouldn't be anywhere near as dark as the source material can be and it wouldn't be good at that point imo. But Fallout: Nuka Break did succeed despite being way more light hearted. But that was more of a comedy series and a parody than it was a true fallout homage.

because videogame movies ALWAYS suck
Just enjoy a video game for what it is, not everythings needs a film/tv adaption anyway

fallout's gay, there has never been a good fallout game.

because video games are almost exclusively themselves copies of existing movies and tv. Also, post WWII "atomic age" retro-futurism was already played-out by the time Fallout 3 came out and the Fallout franchise became a thing with normies. This may be surprising, but non-white people generally don't react to campy 1950's Americana with warm nostalgic feelings, no matter how much diversity you shoehorn into the Fallout universe. I'm surprised the IP wasn't tossed in the vault after the last game and wouldn't be surprised if they didn't crash Fallout 76 on purpose.

Remember, only reason there's a lot of copies is due to TV being around for decades prior.

>tv show of a character wandering across a wastelands sometimes topping to loot dead bodies
i can tell you why

sure, and vidya has improved on none of it. Apart from a few instances of meme choose-your-own-adventure gimmick endings for Blu-Ray and Netflix, native "video game storytelling" has yet to deliver on its promise and probably never will due to fundamental conflicts like player agency vs. author agency. Literally the only reason they're making "cinematic games" is because it's easier to pitch that to investors and promote it to casuals as opposed to trying to explain how video games could actually help tell stories.

>Universe based
Maybe if Americans adapt video games instead of making live action video games, we would have some good movies.

Improved on none of it? No media in the past decade or so have really improved on anything story wise. Especially not 99% of modern TV shows. If anything, Video games have merely allowed another way to experienced a story that may or may not be dynamic, with tons of added flavor(in the form of gameplay and game mechanics) involved. Not sure where you're getting this media superiority complex from lmao.

>non-dynamic video game story experiences
great. cite some examples of great video game "cinematic storytelling". I don't mean lorebuilding. I don't mean deeply-realized "living" simulated worlds. I mean, actual narrative movie-like stories that are actually done better in games than they could be in movies or TV.

Protip: you can't. It has all been hype designed to convince investors that video games are the "next hollywood" and therefore deserve hollywood money and remove the stigma from video games in order to attract hollywood talent. "mature" video game "stories" are universally garbage and embarassing. Give me lore and worldbuilding over dramatic narrative cartoon-movie cutscenes any day.

Video games can be art, but more like architecture and sculpture is art, not like movies and books. "Cinematic gaming" is complete bullshit and gamers who pinned their hopes on it being "their thing" like rock n' roll was for Boomers are in for disappointment.

bitter boomer

you assume that and i'm not, but what if I were a boomer? why would boomers be bitter? The boomers, xoomers, and half the yoomers actually had music, movies, and other pop culture to mark their youths. the later millennial and zoomers have fuck all and are broke dick on top of it. they've been absolutely fucked by the self-importance of the boomer generation.

Believe me, I can understand why they'ld want to claim something as retarded as "movie games" as their artform because what else is there? I guess i just pity the fact that even if it does work itself out, it'll take a generation to come into its own. In the meantime, the current generation will continue to be fucked and the rest will suffer with shit video games because some fag game developer just turned 40 and is embarrassed when he tells his wife's son's friend's parents what he does for a living and would rather tell them he's a writer for "interactive movies" instead of "i make games". Fuck these people.

I agree, but it would flop horribly in the mainstream. The theme of the book is religion, Catholicism in particular, protecting and preserving knowledge, and the liberals in Hollywood can't have THAT.

Rewrite it as tranny priests in a wiccan cult preserving nature after global cooling, they're all in.

Most of the classics of science fiction are incompatible with mainstream society. It's too conservative and pragmatic.

Caesar's Legions are New Vegas. They could base the movie on the first game and/or second game, that doesn't have any of that. The first game has all the elements for a solid movie pr miniseries, the search for the water system chip, dealing with mutants, and the Brotherhood Of Steel.

I'd like to see them take the plots from 1 & 2 and make them into 3D games, too.

A Boy And His Dog.

>Fallout show comes out
>you can't watch the ending because you didn't buy the premium edition

Dude it's the future and it's bad lol, is the premise of a fuckton of movies. It started in movies way before games. What an idiotic post, damn.
