Bethesda announces a new Fallout... reality show
-
Great, sounds terrible. Now where the hell is Fallout 5?
They need to finish TES VI before they start on the next fallout. And the "announcement" trailer for that was like 6 years ago

Fallout Shelter (working title) is a new reality competition series based on the hit Amazon drama and computer game of the same name. The dwellers (contestants) live together in a top-secret vault, where they will compete in a series of games that tests the seven core attributes from the Fallout world. Strength, perception, endurance, charisma, intelligence, agility and luck (S.P.E.C.I.A.L).
The series will not only test dwellers’ core attributes, but also their loyalty and alliances. It’s a game of power dynamics, popularity and social strategy which will ultimately result in a huge cash prize, but do you have what it takes to be the most S.P.E.C.I.A.L?.
I am sort of speechless, but for all the wrong reasons.
So... They're inventing Big Brother, but with lore?
-
So Big Brother then. With a theme.
Exactly what I thought.

A reality show vault? Not even Vault-Tec had any experiments that were that cruel.
Didn't they, though? https://fallout.wiki/wiki/Vault_11

Good news everyone, we created the Torment Nexus reality TV show, from the game "Don't create the Torment Nexus"

Bethesda is not going to make a new Fallout game while Fallout 76 keeps printing money.
I've said this all along, they want subscriptions and mtx, they don't want to make video games. Starfield was the last one we will get and we only got that because it was Todd's stupid baby. ESO and F76 are where they want to be going forward. They will keep expanding them and accepting people's money and license TV shows now I guess.
I've played over 200 hours of Fallout 76 without spending a dime. It's got more content than Fallout 4 by now and you don't even have to care about multiplayer. Saying they don't want to make games is just stupid.

I'm not sure what your point is - is it that they made Fallout 76 so you could play it for free? Or that Fallout 76 is proof they're going to make Fallout 5? Or what.

Enshittification comes even from previously unseen angles.
This feels a step above. Dysenterification?
-
I never finished it. I was having a blast until I saw that I needed to collect a bunch of shit to upgrade the town. I lost interest so fast.
I mean, you can just ignore Sanctuary and the other settlements completely. Honestly, if I play it again, that'll be what I do.

This isn't for Fallout fans. It's for people who watch Netflix/Prime and saw the Fallout show. Reality shows are pretty popular on these platforms (Beast Games is #2 on Prime right now) so that's who they're going after.
-
fallout 1 sucks now because 30 years later they made a reality show
yeah i dont get it

I mean, the show is decent enough, it was the first Fallout related thing I ever consumed, got me to play the games. Still think that this is pretty unrelated to that though. Not sure it'll succeed.

I think it's more like "I can't enjoy fallout 1 anymore knowing what it eventually became".
I don't agree but I get it.

I don't even get it. Everything after fallout 1 has no bearing on fallout 1. It's exactly the same as it was when it was released. It's not hard to not think about things you don't like lol

It’s like how I can’t stand to watch Kevin Spacey movies after we all found out about who he is.
Does it mean he’s no longer a talented actor? No. Does it make his movies suck? No. Does it taint everything he ever did and now seeing him reminds you of how shitty he is as a person?
a Resounding and emphatic- YES.

That would be a good comparison if Fallout as a franchise was a person who committed sexual assault I guess

The crime doesn’t have to equate to ha e the same effect. Someone should have probably explained this to you by now.
When I said, “It’s like….” I didn’t mean “it’s identical to…” Understanding nuance goes a long way in these cases.

What the hell?
Premise they’re going with just makes it any other gameshow.
Missed opportunity to have each “Vault” have some kind of unique experiment or twist.I would've watched that at least.
