Fallout (HHN 34)

[Legacy]

I'll have the review up in a day or two, but I did want to add some thoughts on this one.

IDK why, when the property was already one of the lighter horror-adjacent properties they've done, they strayed away from the "horror" aspects of the show/game. It's pretty, but every review seems to echo the same sentiment: "This would've been great for Fan Fest, not HHN".

So…

Way back when this rumor first popped up, I was told it initially was intended for Fan Fest. Either because negotiations took too long to work for that event or because they wanted it in Orlando as well, it ended up at HHN.

I just find humor in the fact that… yeah… there were no signs this house would actually be scary. The games themselves are barely scary (and not scary at all if you play them certain ways).

oh no ...... oh no.
so even

Spoiler

so even the commercial on TV is kinda lying. that's disappointing.

Spoiler: Hollywood Spoilers

I mean they weren't lying about our version, considering where our house's finale is set in.

Been observing POV's and videos, and talking to friends and colleagues and it makes me confused. Especially when considering how many of the Orlando creatives seemed to be fans of the franchise at large. For a IP like Fallout that could've had the potential to be something truly grand (especially in a location like the New Sprungs), it does seem like a fizzler.

This exactly. It feels much more like a walkthrough than a haunted house, if that makes sense.

I think this really would’ve worked in Hollywood as a Fan Fest experience tbh. Expand out a few scenes and then rework the finale and you’d be golden.

and I was gonna say, perhaps it was done Not so scary to be in connection to five nights at Freddy's since the fanbase would overlap a little bit.
im not saying that the fanbases are exactly the same, but they do probably overlap.
I would make perfect sense for both houses to be less intense.
I just didn't expect so many humans.

You're done.

The scares are subjective at the end of the day but Freddy's makes attempts. It felt like a haunted house.

Fallout didn't.
