The Fallout TV series arrived this week and the response has been almost entirely positive. Almost. Not everyone is on board with Prime TV's adaptation of the beloved Fallout series: some fans have a major beef when it comes to the repercussions the show has on established Fallout lore, even though the show is set after the events of the games.
I won't spoil things here, but midway through the series we learn the date of an important event that may (or may not) overlap with the timeline of Fallout: New Vegas. This led some Fallout fans to claim that the New Vegas storyline was being retconned out of Fallout lore altogether. Other conflicting details in the show raised concerns that Fallout 1 and 2 were getting the same treatment. In other words, some fans wondered, are all of the non-Bethesda Fallout games getting wiped clean from the lore?
