Well...
That's not a good idea.
Though I stopped playing after New Vegas, and though I might not necessarily agree with them, a great majority of Fallout fans agree that New Vegas was PEAK Fallout, especially in terms of storyline.
Please tell me they're not going to fuck this one up after doing so well on the first season.

Looks like they're doing it 15 years after New Vegas, so at least there's that. They can't fuck up New Vegas' story directly.
There were 4 possible MAJOR endings to New Vegas. (There are hundreds of other possibilities that could play out, with many of them being tagged on to the end of the game in a slideshow with a narrator telling you the fate of smaller factions, towns and individuals based off of the player's actions in the game). This actually was one of the first times Todd got himself in hot water when he was telling people that New Vegas would have near infinite possibilities for the ending, but in reality there were really only 4 endings and you don't get to multiply the amount of slides you've got for minor players and tell people you've got literally tens of thousands of endings when we're talking about a mish-mash of superfluous crap, with much of it being the fate of people so incidental to the main story that a lot of people who only played the game once probably forgot about by the time the end credits were rolling.
The main four endings: Siding with NCR. Siding with The Legion. Siding with Mr. House. Or going rogue and letting the A.I. "Yes Man" take control. My usual playthrough ended with the Yes Man ending, even though that's arguably the darkest ending given the implications of Yes Man congratulating you when it's over, only to tell you that he's going to be gone for a while to remove some pesky code by giving himself an upgrade that will allow him more autonomy.
My problem with the factions vying for power, just as with the DEUS EX games is that they're all shit, and by the end of the game I pretty much hate all of them so I just let the A.I. have control.
(The above paragraph is Black Pilled in action, if JSF is reading this).
I wonder which one they're going to base the show off of, if any?
Personally, I don't want to see the Yes Man ending play out, and I think that would be a disastrous choice for the direction of the show. It practically wouldn't even be Fallout anymore, and it would turn into some futuristic si-fi dystopia story with a post-nuclear world backdrop.
Dr. House's ending could be interesting, and I think it would probably be the best choice for the show to use as a jumping off point. He's just one guy. But he's one guy who's body has been in cryosleep for centuries while his brain kept plotting and amassing power for his eventual takeover of the world in a vision he has for everyone. And if he won in New Vegas, he's got an army of deadly robots who are able to build more deadly robots.
I think either NCR or The Legion winning as their start would make the show far too political, which I don't think any of us need any more of in 2025. And knowing that even though the show has been good so far, I suspect there are still a LOT of people over at Amazon who would LOVE to push their agenda with either one of those outcomes. ESPECIALLY if it's The Legion. They'll probably turn Season 2 / New Vegas into The Handmaid's Tale if they go that route.
I'd say that it's pretty obvious that The Brotherhood of Steel wasn't killed off and/or completely bombed out in this version of Fallout since they played such a relevant part of season 1. Because of their secretive nature and their desire not to share the tech they find and evolve with anyone else for any reason, they've never been more than a side-story in any Fallout game before, holding themselves back from ever becoming a major player. This weakness of theirs in the universe gives the show runners a lot of rope to either hang something amazing or hang themselves with.
* Incidentally, the single game in the entire franchise that was literally called "Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel" is considered by probably every fan of Fallout to be without a doubt the worst entry in the series, as the makers of that game hung themselves with their freedo

Oh good. They were able to ruin Season 2 of the show with the 2nd game's story, and now they can ruin the 3rd game with Season 3 of the show that nobody is watching anymore.
