why? its line reading. they can do it without any context of the story.
(I haven't watched it yet, but I'm a huge fan of the games [well some of the games, just a regular fan of the others.. but still the lore is good.])
Tbh there's some truth in your words, but I can't help feel that
adaptionis usually better when made by fans. I suppose as long as the writers and directors are at least fans of whatever OG they're adapting (in this case fallout, though also ideally it'd be written by like Chris Avellone and others who worked on the actual games), the actors don't have to be, though it couldn't hurt.Though that said, if someone is just right for the job, it doesn't matter if they're a fan or not, especially if the director/writers are.
If i remember right, Bethesda often gives their VAs the lines in alphabetical order. Thats why they sometimes sound so out of place. So even in the game they do that. Im an actor and definitely undrrstand Waltons perspective. I do love fallout though
