Fallout is one of the most popular video game franchises and is getting a TV series adaptation that is set to air on April 11, 2024, on Prime Video. The trailer and first-look pictures have got players excited to see the post-apocalyptic story unfold.
A new clip of the upcoming show was shared by Prime Video that showed the first scene, and fans are now worried that it might not be as good as it’s being made and could end up just like Paramount’s Halo TV show, which has disappointed gamers.
The Latest Fallout Clip Has Fans Worried About the Show
The “First Scene” clip shared on the Prime Video YouTube channel shows Ella Purnell’s Lucy and Walton Goggins’ The Ghoul against each other as the former tries to save two people from him. The clip also shows the power armor in action.
As much as players loved getting another look at the show, some criticized the performances of the actors, the cinematography, and several other aspects.
A fan took to the FalloutTVSeries subreddit and said that they are very happy Fallout is getting adapted, but added that there has been a lot of hate and negativity toward the show.

Fans replied, saying that it was all good until the latest clip dropped. One fan said, “I’m worried it’s another Halo,” and further explained that the cinematography of the show looks very “hokey.”
The fan mentioned that it’s very low quality and at the level of fanfiction that they’ve seen YouTubers create. They also said that The Ghoul does not have the right voice but has a “regular dude’s voice.” They criticized the power armor for not having a jetpack and passed it on as an “Iron Man ripoff.”
Despite the Skepticism, Fans Are Excited About the Show
Another fan said the show is “a massive dip in quality” in comparison to the shows of the last decade. They said that they would not mind the bad writing as well, but the show has to look great, which it doesn’t, and called it “low budget.” They further added that they hope this quality doesn’t become the norm and destroy the shows when 2010’s series were much more “amazing.”
While some fans are worried about the show, many are excited that it’s finally coming and are awaiting its launch. Fans said that they’re looking forward to the show’s release, adding that “haters need to get over themselves.” Another fan said that they’re beyond excited and called the show their most anticipated series release in a very long time.
