But since you kicked me out of your episode way back when, I've actually done my homework and dug into both the show and the original games.
I'm actually a huge fan of games where your decisions matter, so I'm surprised I didn't pick it up sooner.
However, while I was watching the show, I realized that with the existence of certain characters, locations, and events, it would mean that our decisions in the game actually might not matter at all.
That there might be a canon and correct way to play these games in order to achieve the correct timeline.
I did know that, and so for a long time I wasn't going to do this theory.
But that was until Todd Howard did an interview where he said the events of the show either have happened or would be happening during the events of Fallout 5.
which we might get in 2037, which in itself is a sequel to Fallout 4, meaning it's all canon and therefore there have to be canon and non-canon choices within the games.
Good old God, Howard.
But look, while I've done my homework and I feel pretty confident about this idea, I could really use someone with decades worth of experience and someone who's more ingrained in the TV world.
What do you say, Truce?
That's the spirit.
Let's figure out Fallout's canon timelines.
There are five main series Fallout games that we should take a look at.
Fallout 1, 2, 3, 4, and then Fallout New Vegas.
Fallout Tactics and Brotherhood of Steel, on the other hand, are not canon.
Why?
Well, once again, Todd Howard said so.
He does that a lot, doesn't he?
You, uh, you get used to it.
Anyway, let's start with the first three games in the series.
