History Series / Fallout2024

** The Enclave is shown to [[JokerImmunity still exist]] despite all their setbacks in ''VideoGame/Fallout2'' and ''VideoGame/Fallout3'', and is clearly far more than a vestige of its former self like they were in ''VideoGame/FalloutNewVegas'' (which also briefly mentions an outpost in Chicago). It is shown that they have a fully dedicated research facility and are clearly up to ''something'' with fusion technology, but the extent of their resources, personnel, and overall role in the current timeline (beyond Wilzig defecting from them) is glossed over in the first season. Likewise, their connection to [[spoiler:Vault-Tec]] is unclear, since Wilzig displays intimate knowledge of [[spoiler:the Vault experiments and knows who Lucy is, though he may have learned that from Moldaver]].
** [[spoiler:While Vault-Tec is revealed to be a GreaterScopeVillain by not only conspiring to profit from the Great War but even planning on ''firing the first nukes'', it's left vague whether they actually ''did'' or if someone else jumped the gun ahead of them. Despite that Mr. House was in on Vault-Tec's "strike first" plan, he was still one day off on his preparations for the Great War... but we don't know if that's because America and/or China suddenly started the Great War themselves or because Vault-Tec left House out of the loop before ''they'' started it.]]
* AmbiguousTimePeriod: [[spoiler:It's left vague when exactly the Vault-Tec meeting took place in one pivotal flashback scene, among the only main hints being that Cooper Howard was still at the top of his game and married to Barb. By the time the Great War happened, [[RewatchBonus it's clear on later viewings]] that enough time had passed for Cooper to have both separated from his wife and seen his career prospects go down the drain as a result of his falling-out with Vault-Tec. Eagle-eyed fans have pointed out a newspaper in a flashback in Episode 6, but it's too blurry to tell if it's from January 2075 or 2077.]]

* AscendedExtra: SeriesMascot Vault Boy is given a name and a backstory from before the bombs fell and made the Wasteland. [[spoiler:The Ghoul was his body model and the inspiration for his "thumbs-up" pose back when he was a normal human actor named Cooper Howard.]]
* AuthoritySoundsDeep: Brotherhood T-60c power armor has a vocal modulator that produces a deep, booming voice that sounds little like they do when out of it.

** As far at the denizens know, Vaults 31, 32, and 33 all work together to thrive. [[spoiler:What the dwellers of the latter two Vaults don't realize is that Vault 31's sole purpose is to serve as a repository for Vault-Tec's hand-picked Overseers for Vaults 32 and 33, all comprised of pre-war Vault-Tec upper brass kept in cryogenic stasis until needed. Vaults 32 and 33 serve as a breeding pool for the former, selected to create a new generation of super-managers for Vault-Tec's new world. When the denizens of Vault 32 discovered the truth, they descended into chaos, murdering their Overseer before turning on each other and themselves. Lucy [=MacLean=]'s father, Hank, is one of them.]]

* NoZombieCannibals: Just like the rest of the ''Franchise/{{Fallout}}'' franchise, feral ghouls do not attack other ghouls, feral or otherwise. When Lucy ignorantly releases an entire pack of them locked up at the clinic, they attack the normal humans and no one else.
** Although, amusingly, this is ''technically'' averted just based on the trope name, as the Ghoul carves up a ghoul friend of his, Roger, for 'ass jerky'.
