Good show. Excellent writing, excellent sets and props, the actors were fantastic, all of them.
The creatures left a bit to be desired. Some of the CGI stood out, and that gulper looked pretty lifeless, like a rubber mold. The best looking feral ghoul was stuck in a chair, only moving its head like a puppet
The actors and their performances more than made up for those issues, especially Walton Goggins.
The finale was very good, but it honestly felt like we only got half the season. Only 8 episodes is a very short season, but if this is where it begins, I'm very exited for season two
I really liked it and it definitely exceeded my expectations. Overall well made, good performances and a solid mix of humor, satire, brutality and so on.
I'm more of an elder scrolls kind of guy, so I haven't really played the fallout games much (only fallout 3 I think?), meaning I can't really compare the series to the games.
Subjectively the one thing I would have changed, is having a bit more mystery. Feels like instead of being that naive vault dweller slowly uncovering everything piece by piece, we do get a lot of information on the background events really fast.
I enjoyed it overall, but I feel like the >!Steel Brotherhood storyline!< was probably the weakest part. Walton Goggins was excellent though, and feel like he definitely nailed it.
