Looking at the TV series of Fallout by Prime Video, many fans of the video game series, and in particular of Fallout: New Vegasthey noticed a detail in conflict with what is told in the chapter developed by Obsidian Entertainment, so much so that there is already talk of some correction by Bethesda or the complete exit of the game from the canon.
The discussion became so heated that Emil Pagliarulo, the design director of the series, published the timeline of the series to bring some order:
- Bombs dropped – 2077
- Fallout 76 – 2102
- Fallout 1 – 2161
- Fallout Tactics – 2197
- Fallout 2 – 2241
- Fallout 3 – 2277
- Fallout: New Vegas – 2281
- Fallout 4 – 2287
- Fallout TV show – 2296
But what would have caused so much excitement, enough to make fans talk about an attempt to alter the events of New Vegas?
Dates that don't add up
Fallout: New Vegas is set in 2281, 204 years after the release of the bombs. The first season of the TV series is set in 2296, fifteen years after the events of New Vegas.
Now pay attention, because we're about to give you aanticipation on the TV series. If you don't want to have them, read no further.
In the sixth episode it is said that Shady Sands, the capital in the New California Republic (NCR), was destroyed in 2277, four years before the events of Fallout: New Vegas. It is the same year as the first battle of Hoover Dam.
In the series, NCR has diluted itself into a disparate group trying to reconstitute itself as a society. In reality it is not clarified whether it is the whole NCR, or just a part of it. Be that as it may, that was enough for fans to talk about retcon (a retroactive change to the events or continuity of a story) made by Bethesda, who did not work directly on the game.
The timeline published by Pagliarulo has done little against the complaints of fans, who continue to speak of an evident discrepancy. In short, is there a desire to alter the facts of New Vegas or simple inattention?
