I can see it now: just get the enemy to breathe in a cloud of nanobots, or have the bots enter their body through an open cut that they make, and the enemy’s body is yours: no violence needed.
We live in a terrifying time because there’s just no way to dodge this sort of stuff unless you have the EMP tech, since a Hazmat suit is unsustainable to don long-term.
Fallout the Show doesn’t follow any of the games because it’s an entirely new story told in that same universe. The games and show all share the same timeline, and yet each game (including the show) has an entirely different story, taking place at a different location and point in time, in each installment.
So there’s really nothing for the show to follow, other than the established rules of the world it inhabits, and imo it does a very good job of that.
