I didn't expect Fallout to win the Best Adaptation award at the 2024 Game Awards, given the success of Arcane on Netflix.
Let's not let this discourage us.
Fans of Arcane have expressed their discontent on social media after the animated series did not win the award for 'Best Adaptation' at the recent Game Awards 2024. Instead, Amazon's Fallout series took the prize, which has caused confusion among many.
Arcane stands out for its ability to bring the League of Legends universe to life through stunning animations and captivating action scenes. Meanwhile, Fallout, one of Prime Video's most acclaimed shows, has been praised for its blend of fidelity to the original material along with narrative originality, as noted by a critic.
Despite the success of both video game adaptations, which attract both fans and new viewers, Arcane's followers believe their series is one of the best on the Netflix platform and feel "cheated" by the outcome. Many express their bewilderment, questioning how Fallout could surpass Arcane in this category.
Although Arcane did not achieve recognition this year, its journey has not been in vain, as it previously won the same award in 2022 and has received several Emmy awards, solidifying its position as an influential series in the animation landscape.
