TheFalloutTV show has already endeared fans worldwide with its daring depiction of the post-apocalyptic world that the franchise is noted for. However, the TV show is leading to a lot of questions among viewers. Questions that someone from Bethesda will be able to answer, especially the devs of theFalloutfranchise.
But Emil Pagliarulo, Studio Design Director of Bethesda Game Studios, has poured water over all expectations by stating that he is not going to be answering questions pertinent to the show, lest there be any spoilers in the answers.
He took to X to pen a post regarding how it feels to not know but why it is important to keep patience and wait for things to unfold in due time.
Bethesda Exec Hopes the Fallout Show Is Just the Beginning
TV adaptations of video games are hot prospects right now. Especially afterThe Last of UsandFalloutsuccessfully captured audiences from the famous video game franchises for their TV shows.Falloutreportedly had a bigger budgetthanThe Last of Us.This has made fans hopeful of new seasons coming soon.
1 Scene in the Fallout Show is Making the Games Non-Canon, but It’s Not Fallout: New Vegas
However, Emil Pagliarulo of Bethesda has made it clear that fans cannot expect any clarifications from him, especially regarding the question posed by the TV show.
I know you all have questions about the Fallout TV show. Some big, some small! As a rule, I won’t be answering them. It’s hard not knowing, and even harder waiting for the answers. I get it. But I share the hope that this is just the beginning, and all will be revealed in time!pic.twitter.com/uGgKZ7gCre
While he sympathizes with fans who hate not knowing, he made it clear that he would not interrupt the TV show process. His belief is that the TV show is just the beginning, and it will answer all questions in due time. However, not being associated with the making of the TV show, he cannot guarantee what will happen. So he hopes that this is the beginning.
Ah, I said my HOPE is this is just the beginning. I make video games, not TV shows.TV shows and how long they last is in the hands of the Hollywood gods. I am but a mortal. 🙂
It is also apparent that he is enjoying the TV show like any other fan of the franchise. As part of the creative team of the video games, it must be plenty weird for him to sit back and watch other people recreate it for the TV show.
My pet theory is that it was originally the Prydwen, but they cut the dialogue referencing the Prydwen in-dialogue sort of last minute. The line where they mention the Commonwealth is ADR – probably rewritten last minute. Couldn’t rerender the ship scenes in time.
In spite of the clear statement, some fans peppered the comments with questions that they had after watching Prime Video’sTV show. However, true to his words, Emil Pagliarulo refrained from answering.
What Next for the Franchise?
Bethesda has already announced that theFallout 5game is in production, but it hasn’t announced a release window yet. The studio has announced that the game is going to come afterElder Scrolls 6.
“Let me share the best Fallout 4 clip out there…”: Clips Like These are Why we Love Fallout – Fallout 5 When?
In an interview withDen of Geek,Todd Howard said that they had to keep theTV show from using certain elements because ofFallout 5.
Both director Jonathan Nolan and Todd Howard seemed unanimous in their opinion that the TV show has done such an astounding job of recreating the games’ universe that it feels like a non-interactive entry in the franchise.
