, Cain spent nearly 13 minutes discussing his thoughts and impressions on the show's first season. Right at the top, he says he likes the show before going on to "ramble" more about the specifics, including why he likes it so much.

"Everything feels like Fallout. It feels like Fallout," he says. "That is hard to do, trust me. I know how hard that is to do. It's easy to write post-apocalyptic stuff that doesn't fit in the Fallout mold, and it would have been very easy for them to go off to be too silly accidentally, to have things that are like, 'that's not part of Fallout.' But they didn't."

Cain also loved how much Fallout lore was present in the show, even admitting he missed a few things during his viewing. He appreciated that the show never added a narrator to explain everything to viewers, but noted that the lack of exposition and amount of lore drops might make it "a little ******* to get into" for those who haven't played the post-apocalyptic action RPG series.

He also praised the Prime Video series for its trio of main characters. Each, as he pointed out, "felt like different ways that a player character could be approaching the game." Lucy represents the "nice character," the player with high ethical standards. Maximus, meanwhile, represents a more neutral player, one focused on achieving their goals. The Ghoul, he said, serves the role of "the show's ******* *****," likely referring to the players who ****** first and ask questions later.

Cain went on to share his thoughts about
