How do you mod a TV show?

Don’t worry, Toddyboy is on the case!

Take place in California. But no sign of the New California Republic. Not looking good.

dangblingus ,

It’s a teaser trailer and the NCR is huge in the lore. It’ll be fine.

So don’t tease the fan favorite faction. Good guys. /s

All they needed to do is show a NCR flag in the background.

mycatiskai ,

I don’t want to give away too much if you haven’t been playing Fallout since the very beginning but the NCR is not started until years after the first game when a person the vault dweller helps, organizes their village to become the New California Republic.

We don’t know when this vault opens. It hasn’t been mentioned in previous games so it might have opened and failed before anything else from series starts or it will take place many years later and we just haven’t seen the NCR and the other factions in the teasers.

Good point, we don’t know when the show takes place. But the Brotherhood have a Prydwen like aircraft. They didn’t have that in the first two games.

mycatiskai ,

True so some time after the Arroyo incident, the brotherhood would have taken vertibird tech from the enclave after the chosen one took them down for the first time.

This assumes the writers for the show give two shits about the lore. They might only use the lore as set dressing for generic post apocalyptic trash.

In the Vanity Fair article. Says the show takes place 9 years after the events of Fallout 4, in 2296. So safe bet that is the Prydwen. 🤡 🌎

Also the NCR is not in the promotional materials from Amazon/Bethesda.

Looks good. Didn’t see any nuka cola references.

I think it looks great and am super excited!

Did anyone else notice the abscence of shockwaves when the nukes went off?

avater OP ,
@avater@lemmy.world avatar

I see them clearly. They are not massive, but they are also not absent

inanna ,

Not the worst, lore wise the bombs were less explosive and more dirty

Yes, but at least this stands a good chance of a few seasons.

What the fuck man where the hell did this spring up from? This just started a flame in my heart.

Zozano ,

I don’t suppose in your heart you have but one desire?

mycatiskai ,

Is that desire to light a flame in your heart instead of the whole world? You pyromaniac!

ExLisper , (edited )

Kind of a random though but do you think we will ever see shows done in a more connected way? I mean as of now, all the shows are always done in secret. Why not involve fans in the process? Publish videos from the set as you film and get feedback? Publish scripts, test footage and so on. Yes, the element of surprise would be lost but wouldn’t it be nice to see how the show is made and they see the final product? And maybe even influence it a little bit? I would love something like that. What do you think?

Edit: interesting. Looks like only I would be interested in seeing how a show is made.

NessD ,

The only reason we watch shows is to get the story. Being spoiled ruins the whole idea of the show. Besides: Even though some showrunners miss the mark, most of the fans ideas of what might come instead are mostly terrible.

ExLisper ,

Yeah, I don’t know. In the age of remakes, reboots and huge franchises can we really say that we watch shows for the story? Is any of the Marvel movies about the story? You always now how it will end. If you read the script of Guardians of the Galaxy would it really spoil the movie? I think those movies are actually more about ‘being involved’. Same as Star Trek or Star Wars. It’s about following, being a fan. Story is the weakest part of those movies. It’s all about CGI, action sequences and ‘fan stuff’ like callbacks, references and so on. I think showing what’s happening on the green screen wouldn’t actually spoil anything and would be really interesting to the fans.

And regarding fans ideas Sonic comes to mind. They released the trailer, fans complained and it got fixed.

But I not saying that all the shows should be made like this. For some (most?) I wouldn’t work. I’m just saying… wouldn’t it be interesting to see the entire process for a show like this?

tegs_terry ,

There’s evidence that people like stuff just as much even if they know what’s gonna happen, kind of like how placebos often work even if you tell the person.

Zozano ,

People rewatch movies because they love them.

I’m about to watch the final episode of the One Piece adaptation, even though I know exactly what has happened.

The adaptation has deviated slightly from the manga, but that’s to be expected of a series known for filler.

calabast ,

I think part of why creators don’t include fans in the process is to avoid the possibility of a lawsuit like “I said there should be a super-mutant/brotherhood of steel secret relationship, and they used my idea! I’m entitled to money!”

Maybe 🤷‍♂️

avater OP ,
@avater@lemmy.world avatar

No not really. There’s a reason you hire experts to do a job and I for instance hates it if someone try’s to explain to me, a designer, what a good design is…

ExLisper ,

But we have early access video games. You can start playing when it’s in alfa, give feedback. Is it really that bad for creators?

avater OP ,
@avater@lemmy.world avatar

I never do it. I play games when they are finished

slowd0wn ,

Developers don’t use early access to get feedback on lore, world-building and visual aesthetic. They get feedback on gameplay balance and bugs. A movie/TV studio doesn’t have gameplay, it’s all visual. Apples to oranges comparison

ExLisper ,

Yes but aren’t game developer experts on gameplay balance? Why would they listen to feedback from some amateurs? It’s the same with movies. People who designed Sonic for the movie were also experts, right? Yet they listed to feedback.

MonsiuerPatEBrown ,

the nipple is the only good design

everything after that is artifice.

wildcardology ,

So you want to be like those execs that interferes with the production of the show/movie?

hybridhavoc ,
@hybridhavoc@lemmy.world avatar

Nah the last thing these shows need are a bunch of armchair experts chipping in.

brawleryukon ,
@brawleryukon@lemmy.world avatar

Ackshully, those experts are statistically far more likely to be sitting in an office chair or a gaming chair than an arm chair.

pushes glasses WAAAAY up nose

ImTryingLemmy ,

Same reason I don’t ask people what they think about my work while I’m doing it, it’s a pain in the ass.

idiocracy ,

to me this looks like the most generic “Hollywood trailer” which is unfortunate but understandable.

TV shows/movies based on games are usually just a cash grab that play on people’s love of the source material, but maybe in wrong we’ll see.

avater OP ,
@avater@lemmy.world avatar

I really disagree on that. Most recent videogame adaptions have been pretty awesome: Arcane, Cyberpunk Edgerunners, Last of Us, Castlevania. Sure there are some stinkers out there, but the quality really went up in the last years.

Zozano ,

Plus One Piece

Evotech ,

SILO is fallout canon in my head

PrettyFlyForAFatGuy ,

i hope they come up with a better ending than they did in the books
