The Witcher was a series of books first
Which made it far more suitable for adaption.

True. But even if Fallout had anything in the way of lore to base a television series on
(Besides China getting pissy with the USA and kicking off a thermonuclear holocaust), a fantasy series based on a somewhat loose representation of an alternate medieval reality is going to be significantly more budget/production friendly than a sci-fi series set in a retro-futurist post apocalyptic wasteland.
I'd have been far more optimistic about a prequel. A story written by Obsidian Entertainment based on the years/months leading up to the conflict.
One of the things that made the first couple of seasons of Game of Thrones (for example) so fucking brilliant was all the politics and world building. The vast majority of Fallout fans will have played through the post-apocalyptic Fallout landscape in 7 different guises, already. I'm surely not the only one that would have preferred a television series covering the moments leading up to those events.
Maybe that's what we're getting. But I bloody doubt it.

I'm hoping for a Pong/Arkanoid/Breakout cinematic universe crossover.

They could use a clip of Reagan saying 'break down that wall' in the 80s style theme tune

Always cheaper and easier to write soap opera than hard sci-fi
I’m pretty sure the template will be the Walking Dead.

Specifically a book series written like a compilation of side quests
Perfect game/TV fodder. Glad they didn't go for the film option.
