TV show isn’t on any different trajectory than Fallout has been since Fallout 2. Ya it’s still a big jump in goofiness from 2 to Bethesda 3. But fallout 4 to TV show, that’s not huge leap into over reliance on 50s commercial aesthetic and goofiness and snark. I’d be more worried about elder scrolls 6. Skyrim didn’t dump out weird lore like oblivion which also had less weird lore than morrowind. Still solid though. Post Fallout 4, 76, Starfield, Fallout TV - I can see the next elder scrolls being a big up in goofiness for entertainment over weird lore that’s entertaining. Like lots of “until I took an arrow to the knee” attempts at meme-able characters
“Alright Michael, we’re going to leave you alone to write in peace. There’s food and drinks in the fridge, and a small mountain of psychedelics in the cupboard.”

All they really need to do for ES6 is bring Michael Kirkbride back and let him run wild with the lore.
