Different mediums have different rules when it comes to storytelling.

This basic fact of existence often makes its way into live-action adaptations likeFallout.

It’s also possible some surgical intervention would be necessary.

Falloutplayers and Non-player characters (NPCs) aren’t all equal in their strength.

The implication here is her Luck stat is very high.

In reality, this would obviously be an incredibly irresponsible way of keeping data secure.
