Yeah, this show is indeed an example of a video game adaptation done right, and it went above and beyond when it comes to the source material.
Yes, there’s a bit of controversy regarding the fate of Shady Sands, but let’s take a look at it.
Seems pretty cut and dry to me. The fall of Shady Sands happened in 2277, and sometime after, it was nuked. Does this chalkboard specify WHEN it was nuked? No, but it definitely shows that is was nuked AFTER the fall.
As far as I’m concerned, this show did the fans justice, and it did so in a way that managed to make new fans, including those who couldn’t care less about games in general.
This show was amazing, and I’m excited to see what season 2 will have in store for us.
