It‘s a very solid adaptation. Sure, it will always sit in the shadow of the game because that’s a masterpiece but if you haven’t played the game yet watched the show, you’re getting a well produced and complete package that isn’t offensive to the source material. Because that’s what happens if you let the writer/director of the source material actually guide you in creating the show.

Fallout wasn't too bad imo. A bit shit in places but they kept close to the game which certainly peases the gamers.

I preferred Fallout to the last of us to be honest. The show wasn't a 1-1 copy of any particular games but the core feeling was spot on.

Yeah hard to say because I have played the game. But I'm not particularly passionate about it. I just felt like the show was a bit meh and forgettable personally.
