FALLOUT IS GOOD – BUT THERE’S NO ESCAPING HOLLYWOOD’S EPIDEMIC OF ‘GAMER BRAIN’

THE PLAGUE OF TERRIBLE, UNFAITHFUL VIDEO-GAME ADAPTATIONS IS A THING OF THE
PAST, WRITES LOUIS CHILTON. NOW, THOUGH, WE HAVE A NEW PROBLEM: A GENRE
HELL-BENT ON PANDERING TO GAMERS THROUGH FIDELITY AND FAMILIARITY AT ALL COSTS

Vaulting ambition: Ella Purnell as the underground-dwelling Lucy in ‘Fallout’
(Prime Video)

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on
the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the
financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary,
'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for
reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the
messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your
donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the
story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum.
And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out
of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism
should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Haven’t you heard? Video-game adaptations are good now, actually! That’s the
party line, chanted ad nauseum into a consensus so absolute that to point it out
is to say nothing at all. But it is, broadly speaking, true: after decades of
Hollywood clumsily mis-adapting everything from Street Fighter to Tomb Raider,
it seems they’ve finally cracked the formula. Films such as The Super Mario Bros
Movie and Sonic the Hedgehog have broken box-office records, while HBO’s The
Last of Us won eight Emmys (from 24 nominations) and became the most streamed
series on HBO’s platform Max. Now, in this same vein, we have Fallout.

Adapted from Bethesda’s popular game franchise of the same name, Fallout is set
in an alternative future, in a world that has been decimated by nuclear
armageddon. The series takes place within the chronology and canon of the video
games, though focuses on a new set of characters. Lucy (Ella Purnell) is the
sheltered hero, who leaves the underground vault in which she’s lived her whole
life to try and save her kidnapped father (Kyle MacLachlan). Maximus (Aaron
Moten) is a member of a cult-like community of militarised
technology-worshippers. The Ghoul (Walton Goggins) is a centuries-old noseless
mutant with a penchant for gunfire. Prime Video is onto a winner. The show has
been widely watched, much discussed on social media and very well reviewed, with
The Independent’s Nick Hilton praising the show’s “sheer cyberpunk
chutzpah”. Those unfamiliar with the source material have praised it; perhaps
more significantly, it’s also gone down well with diehard fans of the games. But
therein lies the problem.




A series like Fallout would have been inconceivable even two decades ago: a
mainstream, big-budget production that cares deeply about fidelity to the
nerd-intensive lore of a video-game universe. Every piece of production design,
from the food being eaten, to the weapons being discharged and the music being
played, is seemingly plucked from some crevice of the game series – a satisfying
wink towards those in the know. The plot points, too, hark back loosely to the
games. Even the physics of the world follow the rules of a game. Episode one
begins with Lucy talking some of her elders through her skill set – spelling
out, in effect, the stats that players must select for their character at the
start of a Fallout game (strength, intelligence, endurance, and so on). Later in
the episode, she is stabbed near-fatally, but manages to treat herself
instantaneously with a “stimpak” – what would be in the game a health-giving
pickup item. The issue is that these little nods don’t actually offer any
greater depth of meaning or emotional resonance. They’re just empty exophora;
semantic dead ends.



Fallout is at least not alone in this affliction. This pathological compulsion
towards fan service – what you might call “gamer brain” – can be seen in nearly
all modern game adaptations. The Last of Us was faithful to a fault, recreating
much of its source material scene-for-scene, and in parts even shot-for-shot.
The Super Mario Bros Movie was, in many ways, an absolute mess of a story, with
gossamer-thin worldbuilding. But there were references aplenty – subtle visual
or musical gestures to obscure Mario games and characters. On some level, it
gamifies the very act of TV viewing: narrative storytelling reduced to “spot the
thing”. It’s impossible, too, not to view this as a reaction to Hollywood’s
historical mishandling of video-game adaptations – a lurch back in the other
direction, from oblivious disregard to pious homage.



It would be harsh to dismiss Fallout entirely because of this. There are things
about the series to admire, including strong turns from its three leads, and a
mordant sense of humour that genuinely tends to land. But there’s no avoiding
the spectre of the games, the naked desire to win the favour of the Fallout
subreddit. At a certain point, it becomes immaterial whether or not Fallout is a
great video-game adaptation. What matters is whether it’s great television.
