    I’d certainly rather things be paced than crammed in. Presumably you also want to give the party time to level up and loot better gear so they don’t end up reloading saves over and over getting torn to pieces while failing to sneak through Quarry Junction.

    One of the most memorable things about Fallout is walking in the wrong direction and getting smoked because there’s no warning you’re going into a high level area…

    I agree on waiting for deathclaws, but it would be hilarious to have Lucy start walking into shit way over her head and moving out

    Like, show a Deatclaw winning against 3-4 knights in power armor so she just turns around and goes the opposite direction.

    Would show how strong they are without Lucy somehow being able to take one out already

        That’s what I mean.

        Like she sees a squad of badass BOS, then a death claw comes out of nowhere and one hits all of them.

        I get in games the players can eventually handle them. But in the show I want them to be the literal perfectly engineered killing machine they’re supposed to be. If you see a death claw the only valid option should be running.

        Played all of Fallout 3 and the expansion. But what kind of an argument is that? I don’t watch a series for the gore, but for the story. It’s a fucking series, not a game.

          How do you play Fallout 3 without noticing the gore? It’s an integral part of the franchise.

            Bruh, either you’re US or your reading comprehension is bad. I’m saying the series has too much focus on the gore instead of the story. If I wanted gore over story, I’d play the game.

              Neither. And if you think the show OR the games had a focus on gore rather than story then you also did not pay the slightest attention to either one. I’m sorry but it’s just an idiotic take no matter how you want to spin it and it looks like you’re just trying to get outraged over nothing.

            As in the gore makes more sense in a game than a show, not that the games lack gore.

              No, as in it makes sense to have gore in a TV adaptation of a gory video game franchise. Imagine they do a live TV adaptation of Dead Space but remove all the gore. It wouldn’t make sense at all. Removing iconic things that the games are known for would just piss off the fans of the franchise and not do it justice because you’re changing the formula that makes it great and what it is.

      Yes, bit I think they lean in rather than lean on.
