You gave nice idea for Fallout, vault 384 (average distance between earth and moon, in kilometres) build beneath surface on the moon. In this alternate USA new missions were sent to moon to inflate NASA budget and beat China, somehow. Player leaves failing vault and goes around the moon seeing abandoned bases with insane astronauts and robots. With full hopes hero reaches one last shuttle but finds out that nuclear war happened and there is nothing to return to.

It's so interesting to hear you talk about your time with Troika. I wasn't doing any gaming in the period where games by Troika were taking off, so I only picked up Arcanum and Bloodlines in the 2020s. And even this much later on and with no awareness of how it played back then, I could see how much of a labour of love they represented. It feels oddly comforting that these games which "speak" so impactfully came during a period that you talk about with so much energy looking back on.

Bloodlines was a real mess at the time. There was a game breaking bug at the end of the first zone and if you didn't have internet you couldn't get it patched. Eventually the community made a really good set of fixes for the game that became mandatory to play it properly. But even though that happened, the love for Troika at the time from the public was immense and I think we were all sad to see them fold.

Instead, it's "what would I get out of it?" That's a brutally honest answer, but perfectly valid.

Coming from an artist perspective i completely agree on that what's new cause even after i work on an animation i want to move on to make something new. You spend so much time on a single project you kinda want to say enough is enough give me something new

So it comes down to the pitch containing something new and fresh of significance. So if Tim were to return to Fallout, off the top of my head: -He’d be working in Bethesda’s Creation Engine for the first time -It would be his first 3D Fallout game, and a chance to have an intimate look at just how far the series has come since he’d started it -No crunch time like Fallout 1 & 2-presumably, knowing how Bethesda likes to operate and how hands off Microsoft is, Tim would have all the time in the world to make a Fallout game just the way he’d like it -Depending on the setting and how far the timeline moves forward, its genre could be less post-apocalyptic and a little more “rebuilding” i.e post post-apocalypse -Building off the second point, it could prove an interesting experience to work on a triple A ip as large as Fallout-what with the TV show and all the supplemental material like the tabletop games, how would he go about navigating the game without creatively impeding others working on Fallout projects and the other way around; how to work together to keep things in sync. Could prove a challenge, but maybe the fun kind. To work with different people outside of the games to create something bigger than the game itself. -And building off that last point, working on a new Fallout game is also an opportunity to work on the TV show. We know that Bethesda and Amazon worked very closely together to make sure everything was up to standard, and perhaps Tim would be interested in assisting in and/or working on the TV show i.e an opportunity to try something he hasn’t

Yes! I remember commenting something earlier about this topic, I’m glad you went more into detail with it. Great stuff Tim!

When I read the title I thought it for a second and remembered you'd rather make a new IP than continue an old one and went "yeah that's probably what he'll say"

Hi Tim, I love this response, and it's great to see how you've been able to have this philosophy in your career. IMO, the gaming industry needs more people with this mindset, so it doesn't stagnate! With that, as far as with you working on a Fallout game again, one of the things I've been saying for years that would make Fallout fresh again is to introduce more character types to play. How amazing would it be to play as a Ghoul, Robobrain, Synth, or a Supermutant? The Fallout world offers so much opportunity for player choice and expression, so being able to have different character types even further expands that. Now, that would be a good Fallout game, one with meaningful and impactful player choice!

So, what I get out of this is that if Tim does work on a Fallout game, I have every reason to be hyped about it.

Passion is absolutely what you have Tim. Im so happy to have found your channel. Fallout 1 is my favorite RPG and Ive replayed it countless time always finding something new I missed. You're humbly amazing and talented Sir!

The biggest question is would you ever make your own game cause you know you would get alot of love

Just have to comment. I love the games you've made. I didn't know, that my favorite games of all time, was all made by you. Fallout 1, played it an absurd amount. arcanum i fell in love with that universe and all the weird kinks, the magic the tech, lots of bugs, but it was worth it, and then vampire: bloodlines which i regard as the best rpg ever made, No one game comes even close to the feel, the mood, the dialog, quest lines, sad the ending was battle heavy, but otherwise a master piece. Thank you so much for your contributions, continue only taking unique and interesting projects!

I'm happy to hear your view on it. I hope to one day reach a similar stage in life. I'll also do a re-evaluation of my stances on works no longer attached to their original creators.

Man I could listen to you for hours

Hi Tim, I don't know if it's enough for a whole video but I'm sure a lot of people would love to hear about that conversation with Mr Gygax!

I know (outside of TOW2) it'll be a long time until we find out what projects you're consulting on, but holy hell am I interested in hearing about them. I imagine the projects are most likely RPGs, and for them to be doing something interesting enough that you haven't really seen before in all your time making/playing RPGs that you consider them something fun and novel? Well that really does give me hope for the games we can expect to see over the next few years!

Me and a small group of friends are in the beginning stages of starting our first game. We have no experience (I mean I’ve made a couple of small Godot games but thats it) and I’ve been learning C++ for the last couple months. We’re planning on making a “ Post Nuclear Apocalypse Mail Man Simulator “ 👀 Cough “New”, Cough “Vegas”, Demake in the style of Doom. With all original assets, from scratch. IF we ever finish it, which will probably take a couple years, I’ll be sure to let you know.

It's fascinating hearing you talk.

As much as Tyranny wasn't a game that drove you forward it is my favourite game you have been involved in. It deserved to be huge.

Hi Tim! If you had the ability to do anything you wanted, what would be your dream setting, story, and system to make a new IP with? Love the channel and hearing your thoughts from both the gamer and programmer views

Just want to thank you for all your games. I bought Fallout on PC in around 1998 or so, I was ~9 years old and it was the first game I had ever bought after playing a demo from a PC Magazine CD ROM. Saved up my allowance to buy it. My mother was in the store which I guess the cashier took for approval - pretty sure it was an R rated game in New Zealand! Fallout, Arcanum and Vampire are in my top 5 all time RPGs, the other 2 being Deus Ex and Gothic 2. I always felt your games were so ambitious - Arcanum for example, so many mechanics. Thank you for all the great memories.

Really empathise with the reasoning, and something I have also tried to do whenever possible. Challenge I have found these days though it is really hard to find an employer who will pay you to do something you haven't already done before. Recruiting / HR barriers aside, I think employers now are just much more risk-averse and that is often what drives people into indie!

Wishing you a lovely day, Tim!

So nice of you, Tim, to give a handy guide to all the game dev companies out there who might want to recruit you :P

I was writing a comment to ask if you would do a new fallout if there was a new idea. but you answered that perfectly. It also answers my internal other question "do YOU have a new vision for FO?" and it sounds like 'no'. (which is totally fine! lots of fallout ideas have been made. I'm glad you enjoyed the TV show!)

Tim, thanks form helping make some of the best games. VTM: Bloodlines is still the standard that I compare all VTM games to. :)

Hey Tim, its probably a long shot for this to ever happen, but I think the dream Fallout game would be you and Todd Howard together working at co producers/directors. Todd has said that the next Fallout may be his last one, and you're not getting any younger either unfortunately. Any chance this would ever happen?

Thats a great honest answer. I would love a new FO game made by you especially for that reason. It would be completely different but from following your work it would be in lines of my taste

I understand your comment regarding not knowing an engine until you make something with it. I'm not a game designer, never wanted to be one. But there have been some mods for Fallout 4 that I wanted, no one had made them, so I decided to do it myself. Well, not really full blown mods, but more like tweaks. Since Bethesda had included the Creation Kit with my Fallout 4 GOTY, I dove in to see what I could do. I found an awesome tutorial on how to do what I wanted to do and I got it done! But that is one intimidating piece of software! I've been using computers since October 1979, as a programmer, for entertainment, business and even as a CG artist. I've used a lot of software in my time. But the Creation Kit is number one for sheer intimidation and learning curve.

Hi Tim, it's me, a total stranger. I'm starting out learning about game dev, and your videos are just a delight. It is nice you take the time to share your thoughts with us. Much appreaciated :-). Sincerely, a 38yo Fallout fan.

I love hearing your experiences after working on so many games :D I do have 3 questions: if a fallout game was given to you with no specific plans and you were able to do ANYTHING you wanted to it, from setting and art style to gameplay functions, would you take the opportunity because you would have room to try something new? are there any aspects of game developement that you haven't done yet but are interested in trying? and finally, do you think there will ever be a point in your career where you truly have tried everything that you wanted to?

Fallout horror spin off where you’re fighting off ghouls/trying not become one

in some hypothetical scenario where Bethesda reached out to you to codevelop or help oversee a fallout project, it would be amazing to see your name in the credits

Funny thing about War. War. War, Never Ends.

Its weird seing a news article pop ups about what you are discussing everytime you make a video. Its like an extra notification that you made another one!

For something new, how about a Fallout VR game?? I think that would be super cool

Got it. Next Fallout game by Tim Cain will be an indie game on Godot 🙂

With Tim’s track record, he needs to make an Indiana Jones or Jumanji game. Some type of artifact hunting in the jungle.

would love to see it someday

"Fallout 5" is like Norway these days. - I'd rather work against it! All respect to Tim Cain! I love the ol' "Fallout". Mark Morgan's soundtrack(!) absolutely ominously beautiful, timeless and C.O.O.L!

I would love another fallout tactics but more in the style of XCOM then the original tactics. not sure if a "tactical" game would interest you though. Also a VR Fallout game similar to Half-life Alyx would be cool, VR games don't personally interest me, but I bet they are cool to work on

youre an inspiration, effendi.

Hi, Tim! I'm playing Arcanum right now, and absolutely loving it! It's got something so special about it, but I can't put my finger on only one thing that makes it special for me! Maybe it's the combination of this different and unique setting, with a fantasy world that is going through the industrial revolution, and great writing! I would absolutely love for you and the folks at Obsidian to make an Arcanum 2, as that would be so great :D I am also replaying Fallout, this time with a low-intelligence character, and having a great laugh at how the world reacts to a dumb Vault Dweller hahaahah At the same time, it makes the game a lot more difficult, as many character simply don't want to talk to you, and so you have to figure out different ways to do things (which makes it so interesting!) Ah, and I recently got a job as a back-end web developer, and while working one of the things that I love to do is to listen to Ambient/Industrial/Noise music, which means that Aphex Twin (which I know you're a fan of!) and Fallout's soundtrack are always playing on my headphones. For some reason this kind of music helps me a lot to concentrate! Have a good day and an awesome week, Tim!

something interesting, something new. always good

Would love to see you take a crack at the grand strategy genre like Crusader Kings.

The GOAT

Now this makes me really curious for Tim's untold Fallout sequel idea, and just how different of a game it could be.

Direct integration into a television show could be a new angle.

Great video. It's completely reset my expectations for The Outer Worlds 2. Now I really want to know what is or are the new and interesting thing(s) driving the Tim Cain of this video to work on it?

Not only is it about whether or not you want to work on a specific project but most certainly do you want to work with specific people

Aww maaaaan, I was always hoping if there was another Obsidian Fallout spinoff that they'd bring you in, but from the sounds of it that would never happen T_T nonetheless, can't help but respect your reasoning there... game on, brotha

In the game industry, what has been your interaction with lawyers? (I'm a lawyer in a completely different area of law but curious what your interactions with them have been and what attorneys in the industry actually do beyond tje obvious copyright stuff)

I can relate to going for what you want to do, rather than going for the money or striving higher up the ladder. I used to work as a programmer, which was fine in itself (though the specific company was not optimal), but despite proper exercise, ergonomic workplace, and other precautions, I ended up with a bad back and just couldn't sit at a desk for any significant amount of time. So I looked for some physical job and ended up as a janitor. Maybe not the most intellectually challenging job, but on the contrary it allows me to think about other hobbies, like writing or, ironically, programming (which I still do in more moderate amounts). For me that works much better, despite the pay cut. Not having any overtime (more like the reverse if it's not much to do) helps a lot too.
