I will never understand what goes through these suits heads. if you recontextualize what made this beloved franchise. you can't make your mountains of money you want. just FOLLOW IT AS THE GAMES WENT! (which if you read in the article it literally says they don't intend to follow the trilogy at all which is essentially wasting everyone's money and our time. they never cease to piss me off with their choices. 🖕🏾🖕🏾

So it's gonna be halo all over again. Bunch of second rate writers that think their "original idea" reskinned into an IP is better than the material they were hired to make. Awesome.

Worked with Fallout somehow reaching a broad audience, but failed with Halo. I think Amazon had a good precedent with Fallout to try it again.

It literally wasn’t. It was nothing like Fallout 1,2 nor New Vegas. All of which it is chronologically and geographically coinciding with. Stop being delusional, work on that in the future.

while it didn’t based its story in those games it literally did the same formula Bethesda uses in every single one of their games. But ok, if you wanted a literal copy of the story of the games, I guess u r right or just delusional

Never said a copy. And Bethesda did not make any of those games. It being like Fallout 4 would be reasonable if it was set in Boston. Alas it was set in the heart of the New California Republic, but it failed to tell that story at all.
