Bethesda announces a new Fallout... reality show
-
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.
Okay but how are you supposed to test luck?

Okay but how are you supposed to test luck?
It's called a "casino".

Plot twist: Nuclear war happens while contestants are in vault
A vault made of plywood and gaffer tape

Games getting turned into a massive franchises tend to put me off of the entire thing

Well, the contestants are S.p.e.c.i.a.l

Russian Roulette.
Test for nat20's by using a semiautomatic handgun.

I was thinking Russian Roulette, but I guess your way is fine.

Is it just me or does this feel tone deaf?

And Fallout 4 was kind of mediocre.

And Fallout 4 was kind of mediocre.
Agreed, but it is a great platform to mod the heck out of. I recommend Wasteland Reborn, if you're looking for a stable modlist.
-
And Fallout 4 was kind of mediocre.
Besides the main story (an incredible important element), it was good. The location lore was interesting. The radiant quests were fucking stupid. Most of the side quests were decent. It's overhated imo. Nuka-Cola World was boring as shit besides the Hubbologists, I'm not gonna lie.

That's fucking stupid. Why? Who asked for this? Just make the damn games. Maybe I'm biased because I think this sort of thing is unentertaining trash, but I legitimately don't think that Fallout fans like this sort of thing.

Sounds like Fallout-themed Squid Game.
Also, Bethesda is not going to make a new Fallout game while Fallout 76 keeps printing money. Same with Elder Scrolls Online. The amazing thing isn't just how far Bethesda has fallen, it's how many people keep propping them up.

The quality of the Fallout TV show to me is somewhere post-season 4 Dexter. Not at Dexter's worst but far from great. It is watchable. Entertaining enough. Not very memorable. Good for syndicated reruns background noise while you eat. Milking something that doesn't have a very high peak

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.

That's actually one of my favorite parts, it's like a feed into itself incentive for my already packrat tendencies.
Now instead of just taking all their weapons/armor/clothes to sell, the random junk is also useful for when I get back home and can upgrade the town, my weapons, or my armor!

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. -

Yeah. This makes me really dislike Fallout now.
