Cain on Games - Tim Cain's new YouTube channel

[KeighnMcDeath]

DR WHO meets Vault Dweller; next episode airing soon. Maybe runs into STNG as well as the Avatar & Kilrathi and Mel Gibson.

 

[Infinitron]

I talk about how I learned a lot by teaching others.

 

[Infinitron]

I talk about how to introduce horror elements in other genres.

 

[Sobchak]

Thank you very much Infinitron for copy pasting the youtube thumbnails and adding sophisticated/thorough descriptions so we can be able to comprehend what these videos are about.

Thank you.

 

[KeighnMcDeath]

Based on that thumbnail I thought it might be how he loves to grope young butts.

 

[Infinitron]

I talk about how I played online and multiplayer games for decades...and now I don't.

 

[KeighnMcDeath]

Well, la-te-dah for you Tim. I could give a rusty rut fuck what you play.

 

[rojay]

Well, la-te-dag for you Tim. I could give a rusty rut fuck what you play.

Yeah, but he's not wrong about online multiplayer games being utter shit because people are assholes online.

Not that I'd know, I guess. The last game I played online regularly was Myth: Soulblighter, and I mainly played that with a bunch of friends. My son plays competitive Overwatch and a few other games though, and it sounds like things haven't changed much.

 

[KeighnMcDeath]

It really depends on the game I suppose. Sure, you run into assholes but you can run into some really cool people too.

No doubt. I certainly did.

 

[Infinitron]

I talk about the difficulties involved in matching your team members with the game design on any given project.

Yeap... People were assholes also back in the day, in fact they were probably worse. A person can choose not to play multiplayer games sure but to state as a fact that people are worse most probably it has something to do with you and not with the others. Which is fine, you're bored, you're tired, you're getting old or whatever...

 

[Butter]

Smart phones and social media are the reason everyone acts like a bigger asshole online nowadays. We used to spend a lot less time online, and nowadays we're basically online every waking hour. And there's invariably some gay fucking retard on Twitter who makes you want to commit a hate crime, and people can't help but carry a bit of that around with them. So when you get into a League of Legends match and some kid is squealing into is microphone, you're already at zero tolerance for faggotry.

It also doesn't help that 1v1 is dead. It didn't matter in Brood War if your opponent was an asshole because you weren't chatting with him. But everything is about team vs team nowadays, so you're exposed to more dipshits per unit time spent in the game.

The assholes were always there, they just have the chance to expose themselves now.

 

[KeighnMcDeath]

Gross!

I think it's both that I'm old and have had kids running around for the last 22 years. But back in the day at least the games I played the most (like Myth) required you to type if you wanted to communicate. It was harder for people to troll, I guess? When I took shit in Myth it was generally because I'd fucked something up and cost our team the game.

 

[KeighnMcDeath]

Derp! My brain was thinking Myst not Myth.

 

[Hammer Of The Heretics]

The assholes were always there, they just have the chance to expose themselves now.

Tim's gay, though, right? Why would he have a problem with exposed assholes? Isn't that kind of the point of homosexuality?

 

[KeighnMcDeath]

Oh the flatulence and audacity! For shame! No butts about it. One must turn the other cheek and hope no one else dumps more of this blather upon us. This is just too damn cheeky.

 

[Infinitron]

For Friday Funday I talk about the latest updates to my space game, which are mostly a shader and a gradient with a dash of transparency!

 

[NecroLord]

I talk about the difficulties involved in matching your team members with the game design on any given project.

This one's tough...
Putting together a proper team can be a rather daunting task.
A smaller and more cohesive team often leads to success, though not always in the sales department.
Now every damn company has to have 100+ employees who work on the game and each of them wants his idea put into the game...

 

[Infinitron]

I talk about how I tell polarizing stories that seem to break some people into right-wrong camps, and to expect that to happen to you.

Sounds fun Roguey

 

[Roguey]

Tim told two stories about how a person came to him with a problem and he offered a solution. The first person thanked him and left, the second person yelled at him for being a bad listener and stormed off. Woman Moment.

A take Tim didn't intend: don't hire women.

 

[Infinitron]

I talk about how I balance game features with a method I call "stick a pin in it".

p.s. my camera battery died at 9:50, so I had to swap batteries and record the remaining video separately. There is a ugly transition there. On the plus side, the dog makes an appearance at that time!

 

[Infinitron]

I talk about my experience of converting GURPS into code for use in Fallout.
