So far, I've enjoyed watching Lucy, Maximus, and The Ghoul explore the Wasteland and slowly uncover the truth behind this lawless land. The only problem is that I can't help but feel a little left out.
We can't control the characters in this TV show like we can in the games, so obviously, this loss of agency leaves something to be desired. And while the show does use three archetypal main characters to try and make up for this lack of control, it's just not the same as exploring the Wasteland for yourself. But I think I've found the solution. After the first episode, when I was debating downloading Fallout 4 again, I remembered that I already had the best Fallout game on my phone—it's time to start a new vault in Fallout Shelter.
