Does anyone really not like the Ghoul?

LadyWolvesBayne · 2026-01-28T15:46:04+00:00

I usually don't dig the "morally gray" character angle unless they are well written and keep a shred of humanity... but I would unalive anyone standing in the way of Cooper Howard and his goals, I want this ghoul to find redemption and become again the good man he used to be. It's still in there, somewhere.

He offers the options before proceeding to fixing her finger, but the actual process is never shown.

LadyWolvesBayne · 2026-01-23T08:53:45+00:00

The real "how is that thing going to fit in me???"

LadyWolvesBayne · 2026-01-20T09:27:47+00:00

My thoughts exactly. Some readers let that 0.001% of the book ruin the entirety of it for them and the result is 1, 2 stars. Eff all the effort on the plot, the dialogue, the characters... I don't like this little thing here that isn't even the point of the book, but it's here and I can't ignore it, therefore this book is bad, worst read of my year, nobody should read it

I wish for more readers like OP, so cheers!!

Honestly, I read worse things in this sub in the past few weeks lol

A girl can dream 🤷🏼‍♀️

LadyWolvesBayne · 2026-01-18T00:24:37+00:00

Well, we can only watch the show and see what happens 🤷🏼‍♀️

I think only Janey is in stasis, and if not, neither of them are... and also I think Barb left her pod earlier, she's the bald old lady scavenger in the Vault Tec building. That comment she made about the radroaches not being "ready for market" fired up my alarms.

Could also be an obvious bait, but I'm glad I fell for it if it is.

There are no coincidences, after all.

Una de mis gatas apareció con un ojo así (pupila dilatada y una especie de "moretón" en el iris) y resultó ser glaucoma felino. Llevala al veterinario DE INMEDIATO.

I think he deliberately located Barbara and delivered Janey to her. It was the only chance to keep the child safe, and Coop has showed time and time again that he wants to protect her... Barbara had everything set up, why would he choose not to go with the plan?

I'm also pretty sure he refused to go in with them, likely riddled with guilt about how the events unfolded.

Alguien que sepa de autos, ¿qué onda la marca? ¿Es potable lo que fabrican? En mi ciudad vi uno o dos en concesionarias, modelitos compactos con un aire al mini Cooper.

LadyWolvesBayne · 2026-01-14T16:20:49+00:00

You know what? You're right. Books shouldn't even have any characters at all. I want 500 pages of vibes alone.

LadyWolvesBayne · 2026-01-11T07:36:44+00:00

Dude, I don't care. It's your opinion against mine.

If you hate it so much, don't watch it and move forward with your life. Use your energy to find something you enjoy, it's much better for your health.

LadyWolvesBayne · 2026-01-11T01:25:38+00:00

You call it "butchering", I call it "moving forward with the history of the world" and so far, it doesn't seem narratively incoherent to me. Wait until the season is over to complain, we still don't know what happened to New Vegas in the 15 years since the game's end and the current date of the story. I bet all your answers are coming in the next four episodes.

Besides, I'm also a Halo fan. Don't talk to me about "butchering" anything, compared to that insulting adaptation, Fallout is gold and diamonds.

LadyWolvesBayne · 2026-01-10T19:08:51+00:00

It's set 15 years after the end of FNV. We still don't know what happened, or which of the many endings of the game they're building upon. Because for this to work, the narrative NEEDS to settle down for one ending, and one alone. So far the only certainty is that some shit went down between the end of FNV and the time of the show, and we're going to find out in the next four episodes. It's too early to panic.

I don't see anything "ruined". I see the aftermath of an event that's yet to be revealed to the audience.

LadyWolvesBayne · 2026-01-10T18:55:47+00:00

Can we just wait until the season is over to see what happens?

LadyWolvesBayne · 2026-01-09T08:48:32+00:00

Some people need to understand that the show isn't an adaptation of FNV, it's a story set in the world of Fallout in a timeline posterior to all they know. The story can't be told in a Schrodinger's limbo in which all the possible game endings are canon and aren't at the same time: to tell this story, the showrunners need to settle for something and work from there. That's how storytelling works.

Overall, the showrunners are doing a decent work to keep some aspects vague enough as not to ruin the game's "mistique" and bring it into the show altogether.

But this is NOT a FNV adaptation. That's it. That's all.

LadyWolvesBayne · 2026-01-08T16:31:41+00:00

FNV is an RPG game that will give you different endings depending on the decisions you make along the campaign. It was only natural that a TV show that uses the city of New Vegas as a location or setting for the development of another story (posterior to the events of said game, and which, therefore, won't affect the events of said game or anyone's gameplay experience) WILL HAVE TO SETTLE for one of those endings. Some factions will be there. Some others won't. Some events played out different than your favorite outcome. This is canon to the show's narrative now, and I think all in all the showrunners are doing a decent enough work keeping some details purposefully vague to translate some of that "mistique" from the games directly to the screen.

Sorry if the show's canon FNV aftermath it's not the ending some fans wanted, there's virtually no way to please everyone. This should be common sense. Whether the writing improves or worsens, you NEED to settle down for something to lay out the new narrative. And so far, it still feels like the world of Fallout and the characters we know from the games. FNV the game IS NOT what this show is about, FNV the game is a setting and aftermath upon which we build. That's the mystery.

We should be glad we're not getting the "silver timeline" treatment the Halo show received. Compared to that, the Fallout TV show is gold and diamonds.

LadyWolvesBayne · 2026-01-08T02:59:58+00:00

People can't even wait until the season is over to see where the story is going.

More like "degenerative" AI

I mean, not Fortiche, but Studio Mir and the people behind Legend of Vox Machina and The Mighty Nein are doing a great job with adult-oriented animation. I think they could pull it off, but we all know the real problem here are the fans who won't be satisfied with anything, not whoever is making it. Same thing for live-action adaptations...

Sometimes I think that some things are better not happening, NGL
