Amazon Prime Fallout trailer has been released and fans are overjoyed with what they saw. Apart from the trailer being true to the video game franchise lore, fans are also equally pleased to see the star-studded cast.
One aspect of the trailer that caught the eye of the fans is the two very contrasting lives of its two protagonists. Lucy, the protagonist of the show, has lived her entire life in the Vault. Maximus, a.k.a. Max on the other hand has been raised above ground as part of the Brotherhood of Steel.
This contrast in the fortunes of its two protagonists is a subtle aspect of the Fallout TV show and one of the many reasons why fans are already in love with it.
The Fallout TV Show Protagonists Are as Different as They Come
Within a day of the launch of the trailer of the Fallout TV show, fans have already raised a storm of debates and conversations regarding its contents. One aspect that has appeared quite remarkable to fans is how the trailer manages to successfully capture the two separate lives of its two protagonists, Lucy and Max, in the post-apocalyptic world of Fallout.
Along with giving fans a riveting glimpse of life inside the Vault, the trailer also offers an insight into the lives of the Brotherhood of Steel members in the Wastelands. This difference in the upbringing of two of its main characters is surely going to play a pivotal role in the storyline as it progresses.
Fans are also thrilled to see the casting of Walton Goggins as The Ghoul and could not get enough of him. With his swashbuckling intensity, he has made the role his own. Even Dogmeat was shown in a blink-and-miss scene.
With the pilot episode of the show scheduled to be aired on 24th April 2024, fans are already busy speculating what to expect from it.
Fallout TV Show Has Taken the Fans by Surprise
Usually, TV adaptations of video games are not well-appreciated by fans. This is mainly due to the changing of the source material that some directors feel is imperative for a video game to be expressed in the televised format. Case in point, Halo and its treatment of Master Chief had enraged fans beyond measure.
But Amazon Prime’s Fallout TV series seems to be doing particularly well among fans because of it staying true to the lore of the video game. With a number of references to the video game (yes, we are talking about the “Shady Sands” sign) the show has ensured that fans get what they deserve.
The inclusion of the soundtrack from Fallout 3 is a particularly classy touch on the part of the producers of the show. And fans have started hankering for more. Ron Pearlman’s iconic voice is now being demanded by fans for the opening narration of the series.
Whether these fan demands come to fruition, only time will tell. But one thing is certain from the trailer, the show is going to delve deep into the philosophical dilemmas that players have come to enjoy so much with Fallout games. The difference in the upbringing of its two protagonists is just another caveat in the many-faceted show.
