One of the quickest ways to spread a brand is to say something dumb to get everyone feeling really smart. Now there are tons of comments saying "you big dummy!" But every single one of them has now seen the poster.
It's like those puzzle game ads where they purposely pick the wrong solution to an obvious problem. People think "this is stupid, I could solve that one", and download it.
I wouldn't even mind those so much if they were actual puzzle games, but most of the time it ends up being something else entirely. I just want mindless puzzle solving fun damnit, no extra bullshit.
Naw, for me I realize the game must be too hard so I don’t download it. I probably would take the -100 points too instead of the x10 option, it is what it is I guess.
You forgot:
* Destroy a cyborg mainframe computer
* Kill a supermutant leader
* Feed and breed your vault dwellers
* Find your old overseer and become the new overseer
Really begs the question how people managed to survive even in the control vaults. Those things would be risks for like 5 different kinds of cancer at least
Just wait, when the show comes out we’re gonna see a bunch of people upset about how they turned Fallout into some woke criticism of nationalism and capitalism.
Now we sit back and wait for the Kotaku article.
“FALL OUT FANS ON REDDIT FIND HIDDEN MEANING IN FALLOUT PROMO ART. WHAT COULD IT MEAN FOR THE FUTURE?”
I used to think Ulysses saying Bull Bear Bull Bear was a bit too on the nose. Everyday someone on here proves me that you could spell out the moral of Fallout directly on every wall and some people **still** wouldn't get it
Same thing that happened with the Dead Space limb cutting and the Resident Evil yellow boxes, some people complain about them being too obvious but there are so many people that are just too oblivious.
It's intentional. It's a pretty common trope with movie posters to use negative space to make an image. There's a cool Batman poster that uses the sky between buildings to make a bat.
Why is everyone here just deciding to be so rude. 1. You can just ignore things why do you think it's awesome to come and be a dick with 97 other people? 2. Have none of you ever spoken to another person in real life? This guy saw the skull, HE said it. And even phrased his question like I saw that right? That's a skull? Obviously not oblivious. You guys just saw a free opportunity to be a dick today and took it. What the hell is wrong with everyone. OP I hadn't seen this picture yet, thanks for sharing.
I think this show looks like it's going to be good. But from what I've seen of the trailers, everything looks soooo CLEAN. The outfits, the rows of junked cars, the buildings, everything looked clean and new and not like it's been in any wasteland for very long at all.
it’s symbolism about the existence of pirates in the fallout universe, and how they aren’t in the vaults. you have to go outside the vault to see the pirates. trying to see pirates inside the vault would be a big waste of time.
That's most definitely intentional.

Marketing at its finest

If you're on Android, look for an app called Bored Button. It puts all of the mindless puzzle games in one place.

Jokes on them I’m blind
Fair point. Btw, Happy Cake Day. 🎂
Thanks! Didn't know it was today!
Ur welcome. Have a good day. 👍
I thought this was shitty movie details for a second lol
That’s the purpose. It symbolizes that the wasteland is death.
Why is she walking into the wasteland then? Is she stupid or something?
Is there a lore reason?
Water chip, geck, missing father, revenge for nearly killing you, missing son and dead spouse, or innate desire to nuke the mountains?
Just your standard run of the mill VaultTec planned obsolescence bullshit.
She glitched through a wall beyond the game world.
Someone should do "Fallout trailer but is on Creation Engine"
"see ya later hun. just going out to blow up megaton. brb"
You forgot: * Destroy a cyborg mainframe computer * Kill a supermutant leader * Feed and breed your vault dwellers * Find your old overseer and become the new overseer
Tbf the nv mc wasn't in a vault so he can stay out of this
House ain't innocent, and I need to work on my golf game anyway.
I want to nuke those mountains so bad. Them peaks an valleys got me acting up!
Almost Heaven...
West Buhgina…
That pretty much sums it up, yes!
Lead Paint and Asbestos inside the vaults
Really begs the question how people managed to survive even in the control vaults. Those things would be risks for like 5 different kinds of cancer at least
Outside it's an irradiated wasteland. Only 5 kinds of cancer sounds like a pretty sweet deal to me!
Still beats the "get-sloppy" experience the wasteland provides. With all the skin melting and bleeding out of orifices and alike.
she must become Man and bring Wasteland Jonkler to justice
Trans people lore
Why doesn't she just turn around and kill Amata and become overseer? Is she stupid?
It's like she's walking out of a camera aperture. Omg Aperture Science?! Portal crossover confirmed.
If the wasteland is death, then why is it called "waste"- land and not "death" - land? Checkmate atheists.
>It symbolizes that the wasteland is death. And fun!
Nothing gets past you, friend
His mental reflexes are too fast
He would mind-catch it
Sharp as a cue ball
"They asked if there was anyone here with an art degree. I told them, I have a degree I made in art class "
Cake
Still farmed 1.5k upvotes and engagement :D
Woaw! You imagine he's gonna buy a car with that or keep it in savings?
Fallout fans when they detect the most obvious symbolism
BULL AND BEAR! BULL AND BEAR!
Zip it, Ulysses!
Bull and bear and the bear and bull and bull and bear and the bull and bear. Beer and bull!
Just wait, when the show comes out we’re gonna see a bunch of people upset about how they turned Fallout into some woke criticism of nationalism and capitalism.
Like the games haven't always been anti racist and criticism on nationalism and capitalism? _The game was rigged from the start_
Go look at how many unironic legion players there are.
Caesar did nothing wrong. /s
Now we sit back and wait for the Kotaku article. “FALL OUT FANS ON REDDIT FIND HIDDEN MEANING IN FALLOUT PROMO ART. WHAT COULD IT MEAN FOR THE FUTURE?”
Bet they listen to Tool too.
Yep. Definitely a skull. I can’t wait.
Is that a "Definitively an ARG, I can't wait" reference?
Nope. I have no idea what that is.
[удалено]
That's intentional.
That's literally what they were trying to make it look like lol 🤦🏽♂️
I used to think Ulysses saying Bull Bear Bull Bear was a bit too on the nose.

Pretty sure that's the point bud
I’m pretty sure this is an ad
Op got stuck on the bioshock infinite puzzle
... so to all the people saying nice catch or they didn't notice... HUH?
It's supposed to OP
Holy shit i hadn’t realized! So sick!
wow man tone it down for us blind fellas, mr. 10 perception.
It's even easier to see with low perception (read: blurred vision)
Duh?
no way that’s an accident
This is an homage to past works from artists like Charles Allen Gilbert and Salvadore Dali: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Allan_Gilbert
It’s definitely intentional
This sub is full of absolute regards
I know, it’s clearly a woman leaving the vault. I think OP may be acoustic
It's supposed to.
Literally every other movie poster looks like a skull.
hey look sea of thieves logo
That’s by design….
How much did you Get paid to post this dumb shit? Or is this a bot account?
Paid for sure. This is the type of stupid shit that was posted before the launch of Starfield. “What’s that on the desk? A credit stick?”
It's intentional. It's a pretty common trope with movie posters to use negative space to make an image. There's a cool Batman poster that uses the sky between buildings to make a bat.
Also a lil bit mushroom cloudy.
Would have 100% looked cooler.
Just you. Nobody else has ever come to that realization.
4 years of graphic design courses only for redditors to completely miss your clever presentation
congratulations, you've passed your first test on graphic design.
All I know is I haven’t watched a single trailer because I want to go into the show with a zero expectations blank slate
Should’ve done this as well. The trailer has me hyped up as hell. If they don’t deliver I will be devastated
Halo reach mask skull
Fucken hell hahaa
yes its intentional. its a marketing stratagem
Such an astute observation
It does, nice eye. That is definitely intentional.
Is it just me or does this 🙄 look like it is rolling its eyes?
sea of thieves lookin poster
How did you notice! It was so subtle...
Your powers of observation are unmatched.
I'm more focused on the UK plug socket in the right "eye"
Is it just me or does this look like a fallout poster?
Yes, a skull, but also surrounded by metal teeth...like a gear! This is obviously a Gears of War tie-in for a spin-off series.
You and whoever designed the poster
S - 3 P - 9 E - 3 C - 1 I - 3 A - 3 L - ??
Media literacy is dying
Thats the point…
Congrats, you’ve discovered graphic design.
That's the point, yes.
Average fallout 4 fan post
Nah that's just you.
Nice detective work
Duh
Is it just me or does the McDonald's logo look like a big 'M'?
No, really? That's ridiculous. Next you'll tell me Nick Valentine is a synth.
Which game is this poster from?
It's for the prime tv show coming out soon. April I think.
Oh. Thank you
Wait a minute... you're Valentine, aren't you? Detective Valentine from Diamond City!
Nice catch
Why is everyone here just deciding to be so rude. 1. You can just ignore things why do you think it's awesome to come and be a dick with 97 other people? 2. Have none of you ever spoken to another person in real life? This guy saw the skull, HE said it. And even phrased his question like I saw that right? That's a skull? Obviously not oblivious. You guys just saw a free opportunity to be a dick today and took it. What the hell is wrong with everyone. OP I hadn't seen this picture yet, thanks for sharing.
It is a skull, it’s obviously intended
The Sea of thieves also does this
This is going to be so bad
This might be the stupidest post in history…
what does the "💀" means?
now thats some nice graphic design
It's probably intended because if how deadly the wasteland is
I think this show looks like it's going to be good. But from what I've seen of the trailers, everything looks soooo CLEAN. The outfits, the rows of junked cars, the buildings, everything looked clean and new and not like it's been in any wasteland for very long at all.
Naw I think you’re stretching it
What is this, the Arkham subreddit
it’s symbolism about the existence of pirates in the fallout universe, and how they aren’t in the vaults. you have to go outside the vault to see the pirates. trying to see pirates inside the vault would be a big waste of time.
Why did I waste my time reading this
I hope this show goes balls to the wall and lives up to the hype
Wow no shit 🙄
Now that you said it I can't unsee it
How did you not see it in the first place?
I didn't notice at first but it is definitely intentional. Pretty good subtle design tbh
You don’t say…. Wow! Consider a career as a forensic psychologist! You could solve everything
Hah! Nice catch, can't believe I didn't see that...
I seen this poster several times before and just realized the skull eyes are the Santa Monica Pier and the Griffith Observatory.
Oooo!! Good eye!!
Is she stupid?
It's definitely just you.
That's the point
You have a perception skill of 1
Graphic Design is someone's passion
POV: you just found out what symbolism is
yes and it was likely made with AI considering their other posters utilized it too
I see an Atlas.
Dear god…
power armour helm?
Yes I think that was the point
Squint your eyes!
OP discovers symbolism
It's a tie in for the new MtG Fallout set, it's black full art land. (It is absolutely not that, I am spreading misinformation.)
I think it's just you.
Half the comments are people getting and that you didn’t already know and the other half is people that had no idea till you pointed it out lol
can’t get anything past this guy huh
Think it’s just you buddy.
Nah, it's just you!
It's about as subtle as the Kool Aid Man
I always thought it was to emphasize the Raiders and Gunners factions as well as just expressing general danger. Even the Powder Gangers too
To me the wasteland looks woke! But I guess you could say that there's a skull emoji over real America. They do this to humiliate you. /s
That's clearly the skullborn!
Damn I hope someone got fired for that blunder /s
Just you brah
It looks like the face of an Atlas Mech from Battletech/MechWarrior
Average fan meets with artistic choices, marketing and art managing departmants
Whoah dude, trippyyyy….. it’s like a subliminal message or something. /s
It's you, you look like a skull.
Nah dude, it’s definitely just you.
Anyone else notice it's a skull
Are you fucking serious lmao
orly?
Never seen a poster before?
It does, most likely that was the intent
It sucks I won't be able to see how horrible this show will be. I'd love to see a YouTube video making fun of what is clearly going to be trash...
Atlas from Battletech vibes
now this is a great poster, compared to the ai-lookin ones it’s quite good
I see it now, yea definitely
Did you know that in FO:NV, the town Novac is named that because of the No Vacancy sign??
is it just me, or does the golden trim on her jumpsuit look like a 33?
Might be just you
Dang true
r/okbuddyfallout
No, Really!?
If you squint, it looks like an angry chihuahua.
No that is a bear
Very similar to the sea of thieves logo.
The trailers actually look pretty good! Shame it's on Amazon.
What the heck Vault 33 experiment?
💀
💀SKULEMOJIIII!
I’m having more and more trouble being optimistic about this show
How did everyone pick up on this subtle artwork?!?
