I usually don't tell people to read YouTube comments, but there are some interesting answers from Tim.

Yeah, he's quite responsive if you ask him stuff.
If he had a bigger channel and hundreds of thousands of subscribers, this wouldn't be the case.
It's how it usually happens. Can't respond to all questions.

He talks about AI that they've developed based on DnD/ToEE that went for military.


Edit:
How they managed to replace GURPS with SPECIAL in just 2 weeks.

Here somebody tries to get him to play the "disavow people who you've had fleeting contact with" game and he outright dismisses them. I like how Tim handles himself in the comments section of his videos.

Talks about how crowded Interplay building was (plus there wasn't much parking space for so many employees) and that his cubicle was next to a fax machine so to reduce annoying noise he bought headphones and listened to ambient music all the time.

120 employees and 90 parking spaces :what:

And of course Fargo was taking up one of them with his clunker.

Still another silly idea that met the chopping block was the “Dead Viper”. At the time of development, Brian Fargo had just purchased a candy-apple red Dodge Viper sports car. He would beam with pride when his V10 roared into the parking lot each morning. Almost immediately, the sports car began suffering break-down after mechanical failure – it ended up spending more time in the Interplay parking lot and repair shops than on the road.
Being pitiless bastards, we wanted to poke fun at it.

Codex Year of the Donut Serpent in the Staglands Dead State Divinity: Original Sin Project: Eternity Torment: Tides of Numenera Wasteland 2 Shadorwun: Hong Kong Divinity: Original Sin 2 A Beautifully Desolate Campaign Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire Pathfinder: Kingmaker Pathfinder: Wrath I'm very into cock and ball torture I helped put crap in Monomyth

I talk about two different proposals that Troika created in 2003 for expansions to Vampire Bloodlines...plus a one-line mention of a third one, which would have made the games into a trilogy.

p.s. the video glitch came back, and I am almost positive this is my antimalware scanner taking priority from my webcam. I forgot to turn on my computer an hour before recording, which seems to help, so that's on me.

p.p.s. I am Furious Yellow.

Among the bands he says were inspirations for Fallout OST, I can't make one out. Najimu? Nageemu? What?

Yeah that one has got me too. Anyone else figure it out? Here is a list of the other bands he spoke of. It looks as if his channel has gotten popular enough that he can't keep up with the comments section.

brian eno
aphex twin
synesthesia
najimu (?)
techno animal
future sound of london
o.rang
scorn
depeche mode

he also mentioned earlier in the video

Enjoy the Revolution! Another revolution around the sun that is. Shadorwun: Hong Kong Divinity: Original Sin 2 Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire Pathfinder: Wrath I'm very into cock and ball torture I helped put crap in Monomyth
Interesting videos so far and a nice music taste. I like his upload tempo. Why did he did TOW? That blows hard, man.
It paid his bills. I'm thinking that TOW was the game that made him leave Obsidian, though.
