What are some ways this can go right and some ways it can go wrong?

Is this a joke about the mobile games?

No I genuinely hope for great things and fear horrible things. The plot isn't a big selling point in Bethesda's entries to the series and I'm very curious what we're going to end up with.

I expect a new story. I think adapting 3 or 4 (or any of their side entries) would likely be a mistake, and I don't expect 1 or 2 (or Tactics or New Vegas obviously). That leaves a lot up in the air.

i mean the plot itself sure but the worldbuilding is definitely a big part of it. they'll probably try to maintain a lot of the aesthetic but likely go somewhere new for the universe.

As long as they don't do New Vegas. Never played the first 2 fallouts but I like the story of Fallout 3 much better than Fallout 4 and I think a show with the Fallout 3 plot would be fine. They could do, like you said, a new story but just within the fallout universe. Could also see them making a prequel that leads up to events of Fallout. That might be the most feasible.
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

It's going to be Game of Thrones, but in the Apocalypse.
