I didn't see a single Asian novel on it... You know, that place where half the humanity resides? 🤡 And they deigned to list two (2!) Russian novels. 🤣🤣🤣 Some people's biases are subtle. Other people's biases may as well be blazing neon signs. Shame.

Frankly, I was disappointed... FALLOUT SPOILERS BELOW There was quite a big departure from the spirit of Fallout games, especially compared to season 1.
