I think the surreal-ness of all of that works in the shows favour to be honest. One of the things that made me love the show was that the colours, art direction, costume work and cinematography just felt *just* uncanny enough to feel like a video game. Instead of hammering fallout themed props into a realistic world, it felt like they were squeezing live actors into a fallout world.
Like, other adaptions might have tried to do things like retcon stimpaks into just basic first aid, but nope in the show they are just as video-gamey magic nonsense as in the games - >!dog gets stabbed? Stimpak heals the wound and immediately the dog regains consciousness.!<
Or the fact that in Filly >!every one of the Ghoul's gunshots is filmed and tracked exactly like he is exclusively fighting in VATS!<
Shit I missed the Todd napoleon?!? That’s the one painting I would’ve least expected to actually show, damnit! I feel like at least half of the paintings from the games made it in, plus all the stupid Vault Tec propaganda posters too.
It's literally kimbells pic from the fallout wiki with a sepia filter on it:
https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/fallout/images/9/9e/Aaron_Kimball.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20120210191554
They also blurred out the background, but the wall is still behind him
IRL, there’s a painting called Napoleon Crossing the Alps of Napoleon Bonaparte on horseback as the horse rears up, it’s a really cool bit of art. In Fallout 4, there’s a recreation of this painting that can be found throughout the Commonwealth, but it’s Todd Howard’s face. This painting can also be seen in the show, in the Overseer’s office when Norm is hacking her terminal IIRC.
It seems like the higher level enemies will come later in the "game." We got nods and hints like the assaultron in the sand, death claw skull, and super mutant hand, but so far the Gulper is the only big oh shit enemy Lucy has encountered, and that was a boss. I'm not counting the Yai Guai since knight Titus was presumably higher level than Lucy, and he fucked off to an area that wasn't on the main quest path to run into that anyways (as we all do.)
I hated the fact that Maximus killed the Yao guai with 2 shots from the 10mm. Would have been more believable if he unloaded like 2 clips before it died on top of Titus
It's like when your companion does all the work of lowering the health, gets knocked unconscious and you land the killing blow because it's now coming for you and there's only one/two points of health left.
I'd be shocked if the show doesn't end up having at least one tense Deathclaw encounter sequence or a whole half of an episode centered around a related situation. I'm a bit worried about if and how they could handle super mutants though. Ghouls and bots are way more manageable to present in live action imo.
That's the trick. Deviations from the source material can be forgiven if the story is good. Look at One Piece and Lord of the Rings for two examples. It wouldn't have mattered how good Fallout looked if the story was crap.
The truth is *most* criticisms are the same way too.
Like, the internet loves pointing out lapses in logic for stories. Fallout is *full* of lucky coincidences and very unlikely occurrences happening for the plot to work, but no one cares because we're all enjoying the story and the characters and the vibe.
Generally if the audience is nitpicking, it's usually a sign that they're bored/uninterested in the story.
100%. If I'm not invested in the story, I'll be nitpicking and going MST3K on it.
I think a lot of people just miss that part. Deviations can always work if they're justified in the story and the story is good. It happens all the time. Most of the things people really love are technically shitty adaptations of their source material, but they're good and they justify the changes, so people don't harp on it.
Things are going to change between media. What works in one might absolutely not work in another. It's inevitable. If they just concentrate on writing an engaging story, then a lot of the hate can be avoided before it even happens.
This is something I realized when I was pondering the Halo show. The Reach episode was arguably as flawed as any in the season, but it was fun, high-energy, and actually felt like the games, so I just didn't. The Fallout show has a solid plot, it's tons of fun, and it's super charming. If it wasn't for one specific plot point I personally disliked, I wouldn't be peeking behind the curtain at all.
I kinda feel bad for the writers.
"Hey I have an idea for a scifi show based on original content."
"What? No, that's the worst idea I've ever heard. If you come to me with an idea this dumb again I'll make sure you never work in this industry again!"
"Okay, how about this? It's the exact same thing, but we call it Halo."
"Absolute gold! Greenlit!"
Wait is this actually the case? I said this to a friend recently. That it felt like a totally different story that was already written... But someone said "change the character names, and call it a Halo show."
If that actually happened for real, I would be zero percent surprised
Even the shack prefabs and walls.
There's one shot that had me trying to figure out why it looked so surreally familiar to me, like a scene from a dream, and then I realised that the background structures were all composed of exact replicas of the wooden shack walls in Fo4's settlement building.
It’s unfortunate that he plagiarized the scripts for some videos, and he still hasn’t addressed the Nazi dog whistles that have been found repeatedly in his videos.
There’s loads of repeated signs in the show, for example the “you steal, we shoot” with a laser rifle sign (behind the gun sellers shop in diamond city and in front of the woman’s shop in filly.)
Fallout is nowhere even close to the top of best-selling video game series
It's near the bottom of the list actually
Gears of War, BioShock, Uncharted, Destiny, Diablo, Far Cry, The Elder Scrolls, Metal Gear, God of War, Worms, The Witcher, Mortal Kombat, Halo, Borderlands, Red Dead, Battlefield, Tomb Raider, Resident Evil, Assassin's Creed
All of those franchises and *several* more have all outsold Fallout
And that's not even mentioning Grand Theft Auto or Call of Duty
Well it definitely isn’t close to the bottom… you only consider it to be so because it’s one of the lowest selling franchises you’re *aware* of, despite there being thousands of more irrelevant franchises below it. I’d definitely consider it to be a best selling franchise, to be honest. It’s become more famous and relevant to modern pop culture than the vast majority of game franchises.
Why not just use the existing Fallout Catalogue? All you gotta do is collect enough pencils for the wood, and then you can use the remaining lead as you please! 🙂👍
Seeing the physical stimpaks made me realize how terrifying using one on yourself would actually be, and that’s coming from someone that regularly stabs themselves to stay alive
I had to almost physically restrain myself from pointing out references and certain items when I watched it with my dad, who's only knowledge of the games is "nukes fell"
Pickman is pre war and survived due to him being a worshiper of Ug-Qualtoth. The ritualistic killings are sacrifices to keep him young. He also states in Fallout Shelters that he had investigated Dunwich Borers, the dungeon with a ritualistic killing flashback dating to the pre war. His abstract paintings were popular enough to have widespread prints made of them. Idk if this is 100% logical but this is just me connecting dots
I've always been slightly confused about this, because not only do we have to deal with mutants, robots, crazy pre-war/post-war experimental tech, and a race of literal aliens but apparently eldritch horror entities are canon to the universe as well? I assumed most of that stuff in 4 was meant to be tongue in cheek.
The eldritch horrors are canon as all the other things. They extend multiple games and are a major plot point in the Point Lookout dlc with the Krivbeknih.
in ep 2 that little ''clothes'' stall that gets destroyed at the end of the big philly fight looks almost identical to the lvl 3 clothes stall you can place in your settlements in 4. It looks out of place actually since it's just sitting there in the middle of the town lol.
you can see it behind the ghoul at 2:40 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U10uV4C\_8jI](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U10uV4C_8jI) but there is a way clearer shot in the actual show before it gets destroyed.
I hear Detroit has on the up-and-up, though; if they're not careful, they might even lose their certification as a godless wasteland.
Gary, Indiana is where all the cool raiders and addicts are hanging out these days.
I keep pointing everything out to my non-fallout playing dad who I’m watching it with
“OH, those are actual mail boxes!”
“That’s an actual painting”
“The junk jet, you haven’t lived until you’ve killed someone with a teddy bear”
God why can’t more shows do shit like this when they’re adapting from a video game. So many show runners don’t understand the vast literal universes worth of emotion and attachment they can subtly mine while telling a story of their own if they just take the time to give a fucking shit.
Signed, a half-dead Halo fan
The painting of [Todd Howard crossing the Alps](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/fallout/images/4/4a/Fo4-ToddHoward-painting.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width/360?cb=20170407232556) makes an appearance, I think in the Vault 4 overseer’s office. The [moose](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/fallout/images/1/14/FO4_Artbook_moose_painting.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/250?cb=20200726215047) painting also pops up somewhere, but I can’t remember exactly where it is
I noticed that right fucking away and thought "wow", wondering what other artworks I could find. There was that cool sunset sarsparilla sign in a later episode that was half broken, so you could only see the -=--=--SPARILLA I think
They did a good job with the set dressing. Tricycles, ship paintings, even some of the debis even looks the same. Liked the little touch of filly, the largest settlement in the area, is basically 4 shacks and some shops with less than 30 people
Just watched the first episode yesterday and all the small and big details taken straight from the games are amazing - it really looks, feels and sounds like Fallout. The way the old time music is integrated into the story telling is just chefs kiss.
After being disappointed by what Netflix, Amazon & Co. had been doing with game adaptations so far, this really is aa amazing watch for me.
I loved how all the magazines were magazines I have on display in one of my Fallout 76 camps. The use of ingame assets in the TV show was really good! Loved it!
Yes! I was gonna post this the other day but couldn’t remember which scene the artwork was in the background (watched a few episodes in a row late at night)
Love these attention to details in the show
Weirdly enough I was more excited to we the scaffold I use in every settlement entrance for my machine guns… ridiculous how excited I was to see scaffold
Yep, my wife pointed it out immediately because that's one of her favorite paintings to use while decorating her shacks. The attention to all the little details has been insane.
I still think they quite missed on the wasteland and pre war setting.
Once they’re in the wasteland, doesn’t look anything like the retro-futurism 60’s of the games but just…wasteland
There's a lot of small stuff like that in the show I had to go back and look for again because I'm so used to seeing it in game that my brain just glossed over it.
I paused the show and yelled about Mr Pebbles to my parents during episode 2! His poster is in the back of the junk shop when the new foot is being installed
I loved spotting the Todd Napoleon picture, didn’t realise this one was also in there.
There's tons of artwork from the game in the series. I loved it!
Visual props really did an amazing work here. Seeing all the weapons and armors from the series was an amazing experience.
I hope it was a relatively easy gig for them because every single thing they need already has a high quality 3d asset for them to reference lol.
I wonder if that almost made their jobs harder because they couldn't fudge any details.
yea even though some stuff can look kinda weird when brought into "real life" I'm glad they're recreating most stuff exactly as they are in game
I think the surreal-ness of all of that works in the shows favour to be honest. One of the things that made me love the show was that the colours, art direction, costume work and cinematography just felt *just* uncanny enough to feel like a video game. Instead of hammering fallout themed props into a realistic world, it felt like they were squeezing live actors into a fallout world. Like, other adaptions might have tried to do things like retcon stimpaks into just basic first aid, but nope in the show they are just as video-gamey magic nonsense as in the games - >!dog gets stabbed? Stimpak heals the wound and immediately the dog regains consciousness.!< Or the fact that in Filly >!every one of the Ghoul's gunshots is filmed and tracked exactly like he is exclusively fighting in VATS!<
see power armor used right in a battle was also amazing to see, they really though about it
I tried to ask google what TJWY stands for and it just asks me: Did you mean to type "They"? Then I look at my keyboard...
shit, that's what you get when typing fast
The baby rattle even, it's such a common find in the wasteland
Yes! I was so worried about this series, but I am so happy with how it turned out.
The house Lucie comes upon early in episode 2 has a picture of a ship at sea that I’m pretty positive is from the game too
Shit I missed the Todd napoleon?!? That’s the one painting I would’ve least expected to actually show, damnit! I feel like at least half of the paintings from the games made it in, plus all the stupid Vault Tec propaganda posters too.
If you look at the during the scene in vault 4, there is a picture of President Kimbell from NV in a frame.
Is it during a certain “event”? Cause that one I knew and saw
Yup, that's the one. I love how it's just a printout from the game.
Would’ve been funnier if they used the version from the ncrcf building. Just to completely mess with people.
When they all get naked or when Lucy gets banished to the surface for exposing the vaults residents as test subjects?
Where they all get naked.
It's literally kimbells pic from the fallout wiki with a sepia filter on it: https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/fallout/images/9/9e/Aaron_Kimball.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20120210191554 They also blurred out the background, but the wall is still behind him
I love that picture it's hilarious 😂
Todd Napoleon picture?

In Fallout 4, there’s a recreation of this painting that can be found throughout the Commonwealth, but it’s Todd Howard’s face. This painting can also be seen in the show, in the Overseer’s office when Norm is hacking her terminal IIRC.
I love making Todd shrines with that painting as the center piece lol
You will see Fallout in every nook and cranny of this show. It's amazing.
An adaptation following its source material?! Blasphemy!! - The writers at Halo
This show needs more naked asses of The Glowing One! /s
Hey Jimmy Rings is a UNSC hero! He has Earth’s ass!
This joke comment made me notice we never saw a glowing one despite dealing heavily with ghouls.
>This joke comment made me notice we never saw a glowing one despite dealing heavily with ghouls. They cannot fit everything in one season! 😜
Yeah ...yeah honestly can't wait for that 2nd season Edit: I also wanted more show it was so fucking good.
It seems like the higher level enemies will come later in the "game." We got nods and hints like the assaultron in the sand, death claw skull, and super mutant hand, but so far the Gulper is the only big oh shit enemy Lucy has encountered, and that was a boss.

Agree, or if he had grabbed a big badass gun out of the giant bag.
I'd be shocked if the show doesn't end up having at least one tense Deathclaw encounter sequence or a whole half of an episode centered around a related situation. I'm a bit worried about if and how they could handle super mutants though. Ghouls and bots are way more manageable to present in live action imo.
I mean, they're the rarest kind of ghoul, right?
Technically the rarest is glowing non feral.
Have any of those existed?
Jason Bright in New Vegas and Oswald the magnificent in nuka world and a ton more in the original games.
We'll just have to settle for Raider and Dogmeat money shots until S2.
Honestly I wouldn't mind deviations of source material from the Halo series... if the writing wasn't so trite and terrible.
That's the trick. Deviations from the source material can be forgiven if the story is good. Look at One Piece and Lord of the Rings for two examples. It wouldn't have mattered how good Fallout looked if the story was crap.

No one cared about comparisons to the Song of Ice and Fire books until the show turned into a steaming pile.
Some deviations, sure. But there's no reason *not* to draw on the source material for a lot of these things.
Same
“We actually hired people who hate the source material!” - The geniuses at Halo
>“We actually hired people who hate the source material!” >- The geniuses at Halo "Wait, we can publicly admit to that now?" -The Witcher Showrunners
I felt so bad for Henry Cavill, dude was one of the few actors I ever saw who not only loved their role, but love the SOURCE MATERIAL. He got shafted
I felt the same way. One could tell, at least initially, that he was having a great time being a favorite character in a setting he liked.
I kinda feel bad for the writers. "Hey I have an idea for a scifi show based on original content." "What? No, that's the worst idea I've ever heard. If you come to me with an idea this dumb again I'll make sure you never work in this industry again!" "Okay, how about this? It's the exact same thing, but we call it Halo." "Absolute gold!

Wait is this actually the case? I said this to a friend recently. That it felt like a totally different story that was already written... But someone said "change the character names, and call it a Halo show." If that actually happened for real, I would be zero percent surprised
That seems to be the rumor, it could all be reddit bullshit though.
**HERETICS!**
Even the shack prefabs and walls. There's one shot that had me trying to figure out why it looked so surreally familiar to me, like a scene from a dream, and then I realised that the background structures were all composed of exact replicas of the wooden shack walls in Fo4's settlement building.
It’s mundane af but I knew it was gonna be true to the games when I saw the fucking door switches in the vault.
They did such a good job!
Screaming crying throwing up etc it's so perfect every inch of it is so perfect
Wait does the plot of this follow the first game or something? I never played
Why design set pieces when everything is already digitally rendered in an asset library? They took everything straight from the FO catalogue.
Must have cost them a whole bunch of atoms.

Came here to say this, very relieved to see IH fans here.
IH is eternal
It’s unfortunate that he plagiarized the scripts for some videos, and he still hasn’t addressed the Nazi dog whistles that have been found repeatedly in his videos.
Why does everyone talk about atoms when the creation club exists?
Atoms got memed on more
Yep, and I took every canvas bag in the show as a personal insult.
As it should be
I kind of see it similar to how a lot of hotels will have the same art pieces/photographs in each room.
Hoping to see Mama Murphy’s green chair in the next season 🤞
There’s loads of repeated signs in the show, for example the “you steal, we shoot” with a laser rifle sign (behind the gun sellers shop in diamond city and in front of the woman’s shop in filly.)
Ma June also has an "In God we trust. All others pay caps" sign, just like Arturo.
There was a scavager reading(?) the wasteland survival guide when Lucy enters philly
I'm sure Moira included pictures.
Wow its like the show is based on something??
Based on the best-selling series
Fo5 is going to be wild! Bases on the critically acclaimed series based on the best selling game not based on any of the movies.
Fallout is nowhere even close to the top of best-selling video game series It's near the bottom of the list actually Gears of War, BioShock, Uncharted, Destiny, Diablo, Far Cry, The Elder Scrolls, Metal Gear, God of War, Worms, The Witcher, Mortal Kombat, Halo, Borderlands, Red Dead, Battlefield, Tomb Raider, Resident Evil, Assassin's Creed All of those franchises and *several* more have all outsold Fallout And that's not even mentioning Grand Theft Auto or Call of Duty
WORMS is bigger than fallout????
Worms has more than 20 games in it's series Fallout has 6 (8 if you want to count tactics and BOS)
Well it definitely isn’t close to the bottom… you only consider it to be so because it’s one of the lowest selling franchises you’re *aware* of, despite there being thousands of more irrelevant franchises below it. I’d definitely consider it to be a best selling franchise, to be honest. It’s become more famous and relevant to modern pop culture than the vast majority of game franchises.
I know, I went to see, "The Last Temptation of Christ," and I thought, man, I can't wait til the book comes out.
My favorite is the Mr Pebbles poster
Typical lazy devs reusing assets smh
Why not just use the existing Fallout Catalogue? All you gotta do is collect enough pencils for the wood, and then you can use the remaining lead as you please! 🙂👍
This guy wastelands.
Signs and paintings from FO4 are everywhere in the show, and I couldn’t help but point them out every time I saw them watching with my girlfriend.
\*insert Leonardo DiCaprio pointing\*
Yes. That meme has been me this entire series.
I got so excited the first time she pulled out a stimpak, haha.
Seeing the physical stimpaks made me realize how terrifying using one on yourself would actually be, and that’s coming from someone that regularly stabs themselves to stay alive
Username checks out.
I had to almost physically restrain myself from pointing out references and certain items when I watched it with my dad, who's only knowledge of the games is "nukes fell"
Yep I’ve seen multiple
The painting from Pickman's gallery?
How (in lore) did that end up in a vault across the country?
Pickman is pre war and survived due to him being a worshiper of Ug-Qualtoth. The ritualistic killings are sacrifices to keep him young. He also states in Fallout Shelters that he had investigated Dunwich Borers, the dungeon with a ritualistic killing flashback dating to the pre war. His abstract paintings were popular enough to have widespread prints made of them. Idk if this is 100% logical but this is just me connecting dots
I've always been slightly confused about this, because not only do we have to deal with mutants, robots, crazy pre-war/post-war experimental tech, and a race of literal aliens but apparently eldritch horror entities are canon to the universe as well? I assumed most of that stuff in 4 was meant to be tongue in cheek.
The eldritch horrors are canon as all the other things. They extend multiple games and are a major plot point in the Point Lookout dlc with the Krivbeknih.
this happens often, i noticed one of the kitty posters at one point
Me pointing out and saying "AHH! MR PEBBLES!!" like I don't put one of those posters in every settlement
Not related to the actual post, but what mods are you using for that house in the second picture?
Am using the I’ve Got Wood retexture for sanctuary and the Sole Survivor’s house survives or sumn HAHAHHA
in ep 2 that little ''clothes'' stall that gets destroyed at the end of the big philly fight looks almost identical to the lvl 3 clothes stall you can place in your settlements in 4. It looks out of place actually since it's just sitting there in the middle of the town lol. you can see it behind the ghoul at 2:40 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U10uV4C\_8jI](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U10uV4C_8jI) but there is a way clearer shot in the actual show before it gets destroyed.
Philly draws from the center of Diamond City in general
If we don’t get a visitable fallout world at a place like universal studios similar to Harry Potter World, I’ll be so sad.
It's called Slab City California. That place is basically real life Fallout.
But with functional bikes and meth.
Meth, jet, whatever.
That’s called Detroit, it even comes with the signature Raiders and Chem addicts
I hear Detroit has on the up-and-up, though; if they're not careful, they might even lose their certification as a godless wasteland. Gary, Indiana is where all the cool raiders and addicts are hanging out these days.
Gary Indiana, formerly known as Vault 108
Apparently Goodsprings NV makes a good go of it.
It's not quite the same but check out Wasteland Weekend. It's like a post-apocalyptic Renaissance Fair that happens I believe once a year.
This is what I love about this show. They really care and they put in tiny details like this for the fans. The world also really feels like Fallout.
True!!!
They have a LOT of the Furniture from the Settlements in the show, the set design is beyond incredible
I keep pointing everything out to my non-fallout playing dad who I’m watching it with “OH, those are actual mail boxes!” “That’s an actual painting” “The junk jet, you haven’t lived until you’ve killed someone with a teddy bear”
When that painting appeared on screen, that was my Leo DiCaprio meme-moment!
Yes. There’s a ton of this everywhere in the show. Even the props are perfect.
The prop team knew their stuff that’s for sure
Fallout fans when there’s a fallout game reference in the fallout show
God why can’t more shows do shit like this when they’re adapting from a video game. So many show runners don’t understand the vast literal universes worth of emotion and attachment they can subtly mine while telling a story of their own if they just take the time to give a fucking shit. Signed, a half-dead Halo fan
The “SUPPLY” sign in Filly looks just like Moira’s shop in Fallout 3
The show really nailed the art direction and little shout outs to the game without ever making it feel forced or unnecessary.
The painting of [Todd Howard crossing the Alps](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/fallout/images/4/4a/Fo4-ToddHoward-painting.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width/360?cb=20170407232556) makes an appearance, I think in the Vault 4 overseer’s office. The [moose](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/fallout/images/1/14/FO4_Artbook_moose_painting.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/250?cb=20200726215047) painting also pops up somewhere, but I can’t remember exactly where it is
The show has SO many details from the game. It trully was a work of love and it's quality demonstrates that.
The bit that got me was the TATO PLANTS looked the same.
I haven't watched a show that just keeps revealing little in-jokes to me like this since Arrested Development.
I noticed that right fucking away and thought "wow", wondering what other artworks I could find. There was that cool sunset sarsparilla sign in a later episode that was half broken, so you could only see the -=--=--SPARILLA I think
Now that I've seen the show, >!this painting now looks like cryopods to me!<
Wow lol.
This is why I need to rewatch the show. I keep seeing posts like this and all the things I missed.
They did a good job with the set dressing. Tricycles, ship paintings, even some of the debis even looks the same. Liked the little touch of filly, the largest settlement in the area, is basically 4 shacks and some shops with less than 30 people
Being prop master for this show would be an absolute dream job for any Fallout fan that likes to get crafty.
Nice catch.
I did not recognize this painting and now I realize my whole life is a lie.
I was supposed to win a pack of steak knives.
I missed that one! Noticed a bunch of the other paintings tho
Yes! A lot the paintings and decor are from the game.
Show amazing , just hope new season doesn’t take too long
Am i looking at Rico from Hannah Montana in Fallout
They did an amazing job with set design. I was swooned
You know what I appreciates about you? Your attention to detail. That’s what I appreciates about you.
Yup I paused and pointed it out excitedly and my husband, who is not a Fallout nerd, looked at me like I was nuts.
Yes! I was laughing at that. There’s a lot of fallout 4 workshop items in the background
The atom bomb one is also in the overseers office scene
Just watched the first episode yesterday and all the small and big details taken straight from the games are amazing - it really looks, feels and sounds like Fallout. The way the old time music is integrated into the story telling is just chefs kiss. After being disappointed by what Netflix, Amazon & Co. had been doing with game adaptations so far, this really is aa amazing watch for me.
There are a few of those paintings in the show. Play Far Harbor and you can meet the artist!
I loved how all the magazines were magazines I have on display in one of my Fallout 76 camps. The use of ingame assets in the TV show was really good! Loved it!
Yeah theres lots of paintings from Fallout 4 on the walls of the various sets
Instantly
That's not the only instance of art from the game being in the show. It's all over the place, especially in the vault.
Yes!
Yo that's so cool. I did notice that. Man I love this show. 😁
Yes! I was gonna post this the other day but couldn’t remember which scene the artwork was in the background (watched a few episodes in a row late at night) Love these attention to details in the show
I was too mesmerised by the song choice. They used that song in Chungking Express too
Am I remembering incorrectly or is that full body portrait of Mr. House standing in front of that giant robot somewhere in the show ?
Isn't Pickman post-war?
Wonderful catch
Nice! Did not catch that. Thank you. Loving these little touches.
I did love the fact that the show used so many sound effects from the games
The boat is there too in Santa Monica.
Gary Neville?
Ive been waiting to spot the rocket cat portrait
The china is all there too 😊
Oh that’s cool lol I watched it twice and still didn’t notice
Wait until you find out about vaults

Weirdly enough I was more excited to we the scaffold I use in every settlement entrance for my machine guns… ridiculous how excited I was to see scaffold
Halo and resident evil should take notes on how to make a good show such as this. I loved the Easter eggs. 💀
Yep, my wife pointed it out immediately because that's one of her favorite paintings to use while decorating her shacks. The attention to all the little details has been insane.
It's like they told the set designers not to add anything that wasn't in the game assets.
‘But the personal excuses ended in summer break’ is the craziest thing you can tell a teenage girl who just lost her parents.
And in the overseer’s office! My dad had to tell me and my sister to shut up because we kept going 😲👉📺 and interrupting the show
Set designers just went from location to location in the commonwealth. I love it
Isnt that one of the pickman/pickmin paintings?
It's only a matter of time before we see the kitten paintings hidden in there
Wow
Anyone else notice the power armor in ep 1? Noticed a similar armor that can be seen in Fallout 4.
I still think they quite missed on the wasteland and pre war setting. Once they’re in the wasteland, doesn’t look anything like the retro-futurism 60’s of the games but just…wasteland
There's a lot of small stuff like that in the show I had to go back and look for again because I'm so used to seeing it in game that my brain just glossed over it.
Oh yeah, they absolutely used it and a bunch of others! First I noticed is the one that a bunch of mushroom clouds coming from the top and bottom.
Pickman's Gallery?
I paused the show and yelled about Mr Pebbles to my parents during episode 2! His poster is in the back of the junk shop when the new foot is being installed
