Ella Purnell as Lucy looking confused in Fallout
The Big Picture All video game adaptations inevitably face the same issue of how to compensate for a lack of gameplay. Making the jump from an interactive medium to a more passive one means finding ways to fill in the gaps between story beats in a way that's still compelling for viewers to watch. For some games, this is easier than others.
"I think one of the early quandaries with this series was the role-playing game aspect of it. In the games, you design your own character. Lisa was not familiar with Fallout , and we sat down to play when we were developing the project. You’re gonna spend, like, an hour creating your own character. Does it look like you? Look like someone else? There’s so much fun to be had there. But the point is, there is no protagonist. The protagonist is a literal every person.
Beyond that, Nolan also saw that approach as akin to the various factions present in the Fallout universe. Like in any of the games, choosing a faction to side with changes the story, something prevalent in Season 1's hunt for Siggi Wilzig's head. Aaron Moten's Maximus wants the technology in the doctor for the Brotherhood of Steel, Lucy seeks it for an audience with Moldaver , and The Ghoul merely spots a bidding war to take advantage of.
Fallout is already confirmed for Season 2, which will head to the fan-favorite New Vegas. When the time comes, Nolan and company will have a new challenge to face with deciding how to incorporate the ending of Obsidian's beloved Fallout: New Vegas without alienating players who chose a different outcome for the Mojave. Until then, stay tuned here at Collider for updates and catch up on Season 1 on Prime Video.
