The second season of the "Fallout" series has launched with a perfect rating on Rotten Tomatoes. At the time of publication, the sequel has 100% "freshness" based on nearly forty reviews. This is significantly higher than the first season, which at one point stopped at 93%.
Critics agree that the show has not only retained the strengths of its debut but has also expanded the world. In its second season, "Fallout" becomes darker, larger, and more confident, shifting its focus from exposition to the development of factions, conflicts, and the consequences of choices. A significant role is given to New Vegas, one of the most iconic regions of the franchise.
Reviewers note the successful tone, humor, and action staging, as well as the chemistry between Lucy MacLean and the Ghoul, played by Ella Purnell and Walton Goggins. Many critics call the second season "better than the first in every way," and Nerdist emphasizes the authors' boldness in working with the canon and their desire to move the universe forward, rather than simply reproducing familiar elements.
Nevertheless, there are some criticisms. Some reviewers point to the overloaded plot and the large number of parallel storylines, which may alienate less prepared viewers. Some authors believe that the series is increasingly focused on game fans and deep lore, leaving newcomers without the usual entry points.
