I haven't watched season 2 yet so I have no idea.
That said, it is a TV show, meaning a longer story format. You did say it's only the first two episodes so far, so maybe by the next (or 4th) it'll really ramp up; that's kinda how it seemed to go in the first season anyway.
Maybe they have another season or so of story they want to tell, so 2 might be the midpoint or something.
I hope you’re right.
I do remember S1 not being in a rush either but that’s understandable because story beginnings tend to spend a good deal of time introducing the audience to characters and the world.
We already know the characters and their motivations so it shouldn’t use up as much time setting up the plot.
Another reason could be straight-up fan service lol. Everyone was asking about New Vegas even before the first season aired.
