Played all of Fallout 3 and the expansion. But what kind of an argument is that? I don't watch a series for the gore, but for the story. It's a fucking series, not a game.
How do you play Fallout 3 without noticing the gore? It's an integral part of the franchise.
Bruh, either you're US or your reading comprehension is bad. I'm saying the series has too much focus on the gore instead of the story. If I wanted gore over story, I'd play the game.
Neither. And if you think the show OR the games had a focus on gore rather than story then you also did not pay the slightest attention to either one. I'm sorry but it's just an idiotic take no matter how you want to spin it and it looks like you're just trying to get outraged over nothing.

The intelligent and thoughtful response we're used from you.
As in the gore makes more sense in a game than a show, not that the games lack gore.
No, as in it makes sense to have gore in a TV adaptation of a gory video game franchise. Imagine they do a live TV adaptation of Dead Space but remove all the gore. It wouldn't make sense at all. Removing iconic things that the games are known for would just piss off the fans of the franchise and not do it justice because you're changing the formula that makes it great and what it is.
