I was up last night till four In the morning watching the series! The series Is a bit meh.. what can I say. But Isn´t the series based on Fallout 4, which Is also on sale?
I'm curious. What did you not like? Was it the overall story or maybe the characters aren't that interesting? I'll post my mini-review on Saturday after I've seen a couple of episodes.

Yeah, most people seem to like it but as with anything some do not.
Just adding that FO76 is free to play for a week. This thread quickly turned over a new page so that might be missed.
No, now go away or I shall taunt you a second time!

I'm curious. What did you not like? Was it the overall story or maybe the characters aren't that interesting? I'll post my mini-review on Saturday after I've seen a couple of episodes. I haven´t played the game so I can´t judge If the series Is representative of the game and how good It does on that. As a sci-fi series on It´s self, and as a adult viewer that I am, I found It a bit childish and overly violent. I even felt sad for the young viewers that would watch It. It reminded me a bit of some of the 80´s 90´s movies like Scanners, or Re-animator, they weren´t terribly bad for their time but not just quite for a mature audience In my opinion. I just think that In 2024, there could be better sci-fi movies, but again this one Is based on a game, so It´s limited In what It wants to express. The story Is not bad, as a sci-fi story and hits some "could be" scenarios like the bomb, the vault and the cult but It´s presentation Is childish for a movie (representative of the game). I found the acting ok, In some cases a bit sterile or lifeless, but then so are some of the scenarios, so a bit sour at times. I found It light as a movie, with emphasis on dismemberment for Impact, typical of a class B movie. The protagonist does a nice job, not great but better than others, I like her. I am at chapter 6 and It´s Is starting to get more Interesting now because things are starting to unfold which In turn makes It more serious as a story and overall movie. The actors now also seem to have more Impact on where and why of their doings/feelings. Will see how It goes tonight. Can´t say I am a movie guru so mind my opinion here.

I've played 3 & 4 but I'm an amateur compared to others here. I wonder if people who play it will find it better or worse from the playing experience?

Yeah, that´s the question... will I find It different after playing the game. One thing Is for sure, They sure got the attention of those who haven´t played the game, because now I am curious as to how It will compare and will buy the game! Darn marketing!!! Man I was having a good time playing Vargus, now I got side track AGAIN! I hate It LOL!Cheers
