Long gone is the era of 26 episode seasons. Nowadays, you&#8217;re lucky to get ten episodes per year of your favourite show. With Fallout, the absolute television event of the year, we&#8217;ve had to make do with just eight installments. Sure, that means there&#8217;s very little fat or filler in there, but damnit, we just want to spend more time in the wasteland with those particular characters. Because, let&#8217;s be frank, the TV show is great. Even the director of the original game <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vg247.com\/it-feels-right-fallouts-original-creators-now-properly-reviewed-amazons-tv-show-and-he-still-likes-it\">thinks so<\/a>.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nWell, enter Zoe from our sister publication Eurogamer with this handy video guide for building Lucy MacLean, Maximus, and The Ghoul as your Fallout 4 protagonist, and just in time for the long-awaited current gen update coming next week. Sure, you&#8217;ll have to fill in some of the gaps with your imagination, but that&#8217;s what role playing is all about. This guide is for the vanilla game and doesn&#8217;t utilise any mods, so console players are welcome to get stuck in.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nSo check out the video above.
