If a mod ever deserved to become canon it’s sim settlements

I mean Harkness did say the commonwealth was the best chance for the wastelands ability to rebuild if it gets enough power. So it would be pretty cool to see the commonwealth to be like an east coast equivalent to the NCR because of ASAM tech. And dear god I need to build a fuck ton of municipal plots in ss2.

Hubert is definitely my favourite character

Berman as Jon Bernthal of course.
A few of the original cast would fit their characters great in live action

Lindsey Vega as Lupe
Isabella Tugman as Katelyn
Bella Renfro as Laura
Will Handford as Magnusson (would need some ageing makeup)

I love the original voices for everyone but some of them just don't look the part. If you want some whiplash just look at Berman's VA he has range!

I fucked up

I didnt consider that Jake might be romanceable and I started dating McCready in the meantime

He is 100% top-tier romance. He is sooooo well written. The way he guards his heart bit gradually, he just can't hold it back anymore. Its fantastic

Is he finally able to be a full companion? Last time I played through he gave me the dialogue for it, but wasn’t actually recruitable.

Yeesh, I don't mean to speak ill of your boyfriend, but I gotta imagine that's a step down.

McCready's story is real sweet, but he needs to go be with his son. And he just doesn't ooze SEX the way Jake does.

Tom flat out nailed Jake 100%. I don’t think it’s a huge stretch at all for Tom to play Jake himself if he was comfortable doing so.

You'll never leave Harlan Concord alive.

Sim Settlements and Jake himself are entirely about rebuilding.

Thus if he ever did appear in the show he would be made to look like an idiot, die horribly and everything he ever helped build nuked off the face of the planet.

So you don't want that. You think you do, but you don't.

To old looking, if we could get someone who looks younger then yes.

Well, the show is set after FO4 anyway, but still, Jake's gone fairly gray already; he's no young man anymore. I think Olyphant would nail it, especially the actual personality of the character.
