Cain on Games - Tim Cain's new YouTube channel

[BlackAdderBG]

I don't own a doghouse is all I'll say.

 

[0sacred]

Tim should've gotten a chihuahua or similar gay breed

 

[0sacred]

Well then:

I talk about putting "touchy subjects" into games, things like violence or drug use or nudity, and how to approach their inclusion.

The cool thing about playing Arcanum now is that the gameworld feels just fine what with its slavery, capitalism and bloodshed. But even back in the day I didn't care strongly about the world's social issues one way or another. They add flavour to the game but they're not obtrusive.

I don't think Current Year Tim would make as based a game ever again.

 

[NecroLord]

I don't think Current Year Tim would make as based a game ever again.

Hate to admit it, but Tim will more than likely be part of the problem by pushing 'muh social issues into his games...

 

[Tyranicon]

I'll say the quiet part aloud.

Why do you think these slop-producing corporations are going to leave such a significant part of the population untapped to go after a small segment of angry men (with arguable good taste) that will bash their products?

What was that quote again? Something about never underestimating the taste of the average consoomer, and you'll be rich.

 

[Infinitron]

I talk about lessons I learned from working with teams, starting with lessons from a Duran Duran documentary.

[NecroLord]

Tim being double teamed...

Duran Duran documentary: Wild Boys 8 hour loop

 

[Infinitron]

I talk about viewing Fallout as a piece of art, which means that it is interpreted and enjoyed differently by different people, and that's ok.

 

[Roguey]

This seems to be his roundabout way of saying it's okay to interpret Fallout as anticapitalist even though he told Avellone he didn't actually create it as such.

 

[NecroLord]

This seems to be his roundabout way of saying it's okay to interpret Fallout as anticapitalist even though he told Avellone he didn't actually create it as such.

What about The Outer Worlds?
Is that also a work of art?

 

[Butter]

This seems to be his roundabout way of saying it's okay to interpret Fallout as anticapitalist even though he told Avellone he didn't actually create it as such.

He really wants to be invited to more Bethesda events.

 

[Wesp5]

What about The Outer Worlds?
Is that also a work of art?

Of course! But as with other art, there is great art and bad art and mediocre art ...

 

[Saint_Proverbius]

This seems to be his roundabout way of saying it's okay to interpret Fallout as anticapitalist even though he told Avellone he didn't actually create it as such.

Once again, I'm reminded of my theory that his opinion of the Fallout TV show is that it drives views to his YouTube channel.

 

[NecroLord]

Is Tim really that desperate for a gig at Bethesda?

 

[Roguey]

Is Tim really that desperate for a gig at Bethesda?

He doesn't want to work for Bethesda, he does want to be liked and get paid to do a Fallout remaster.

 

[Heroic Liberator]

Is Tim really that desperate for a gig at Bethesda?

He doesn't want to work for Bethesda, he does want to be liked and get paid to do a Fallout remaster.

Which Todd won't allow since there isn't any big financial incentive for it.

 

[Infinitron]

I talk about my involvement in the cancellation of Fallout Van Buren at Interplay in 2003.

 

[NecroLord]

 

[Roguey]

The bad guys here are Interplay's management for mismanaging the company to such an extent that their last profitable subdivision was forced to make slam dunks to keep the entire company afloat. Their poor decisions lead to this.

 

[Quillon]

Was Fargo behind them suing Troika for Fallout source code?

 

[Forest Dweller]

If you haven't watched, it's basically a nothingburger. A VP wanted the game finished in an unreasonable timeframe and asked Tim his assessment of how long to finish the game. Tim told the truth and the game got cancelled.

 

[Tyranicon]

Cain spends the first few minutes of the video lavishly praising the racket ball skills of two other men.

I feel like there's a joke in here somewhere.

Alright Roguey put on your investigator jacket and find out who is "Veep".
