The ones who’ve watched it, know that the creators understood the assignment thoroughly and they are in for a visual treat.
The resemblance with the game is just unparalleled. However, not all are happy with Jonathan Nolan’s TV adaptation of the popular video game franchise. Despite the positive ratings, they believe itdoesn’t live up to the mark. As they say, the world is an extremely unreliable critic. Currently, the show has a rating of 4.7 out of 5 on Google based on over 1600 ratings.

The same is the case with the TV adaptation of the franchise. Akin to the game, it features Vault dwellers, a term referring to the ones living in Vault-Tec Vaults. The show follows Lucy MacLean (played by Ella Purnell), a young vault dweller whose exploration of post-apocalyptic wastelands becomes a horrible experience as she fights for survival in the open.

He believes the TV adaptation allows them totell about the past in a better way. According to Todd:
One of the best things about Fallout is the world before the bombs fell. It’s really unique, this post-nuclear future that we wanted to have and then it all goes wrong. And the show has the ability to show the past in a way the games never did.
The world shown in the game is changed forever after The Great War. In an alternate history of the Earth, natural resources ran out while several small nations collapsed, making survival difficult for people.
While life seemingly is easier for the ones living in the settlements, it would take more than the will to survive for the Vault dweller Lucy.
