It actually helped them that the stories in the games are completely forgettable. The important thing to pull from the games is the overall vibe, which they nailed. Then, they were able to put their own story in the setting.

it really hit me how great of an adaptation this was on episode 8…
when lucy reached moldaver and said she thought about rigging the head with explosives i was like damn they got it right…
if it were a quest in fallout, i for sure would’ve went in with the rigged head and a super sledge ready to murk anybody on sight only for me to reload a previous save once it was revealed my pops was actually a vault-tec shill and the head contained cold-fusion tech

Something I'm not quite clear on:
Does Vault 31 just have low-level Bud's Buds (e.g. assistants, secretaries, etc), or are upper managers in the same vault?
Yes, upper management are in another vault.

I’m surprised at the hate for the maximus, just coming off the DT review. I’m not seeing the being on par with Finn comparisons as legit, Finn never really got a good full arc after TFA, Max got the brotherhood and Lucy setups to go through it’s more promising from the jump.
Plus he got the kiss at least, albeit with that dead finger

I didn't watch the DT review but i'm not surprised. It just shows ppl don't actually understand what was wrong with Finn and just bandwagoned the dislike from a superficial standpoint when it became trendy to do so.
Case in point and what is overlooked: Fallout is a self-deprecating comedy genre with peak absurdity levels. You're not supposed to have a Luke Skywalker, T'Challa, or Cloud Strife. At best you'll have an MCU Starlord.
Yet even within that premise, Max still far exceeds everything Finn was.

Only thing I don't like is the stereotype weak ass Black male trope character.
