    For someone who never played the fallout or the withcher games should I feel left out if the show runners ignore some of the canons of the games/source?

      What? Do you mean that the shows would require prior knowledge of the source if the showrunners didn’t ignore it? Doubt it. I mean a book is a book and a game is a game and not a film or tv show, some changes are expected in the adaptation because it wouldn’t work otherwise. But there’s a difference to just ignoring stuff, can still make it low barrier for people who don’t know the source.
