No one edits out of their minds because Fallout 1 isn't ridiculous in the slightest. Just because it has green men, people turned into decaying zombies when they survive a nuclear blast and mutated dinosaurs doesn't mean people shouldn't be able to take it seriously.
This'll likely be permanently, as if the whole point of the series (from the start) was goofs and gaffs with the occasional exposition; that's not what I signed up for. Seems like the more I learn about the creators of things I like, the less I like their works.
Makes sense, that it was Russian who made Fallout into what it is, after all, Russian community keeps classics alive.
Oh my god, Timothy Cain reminds me more and more of George Lucas, both started the franchise, but it became great because of other people, both misunderstood their own franchises, both blindly support the companies that butchers their creation, both are fat old guys.
Leonard Boyarsky is American. Unless you are implying that having Russian ancestry bestows one with certain artistic abilities.
You’re being too hard on Tim. I don’t think he misunderstands Fallout at all. He just doesn’t care anymore. It’s been through so many iterations since he had any hand in it. And overall he seems like a nice guy that doesn’t surround himself with sycophants and exercise overbearing creative control over his work to the detriment of its quality, like George did . Though based on Outer Worlds, I don’t think he has much quality game design/writing left in him.
Of course it was ridiculous. It's the 80's which already ridiculous decade and a video games, a ridiculous medium to channel it, I mean shit, the OG Ultima games had you flying tie fighters into space and shit.
I think he might still have it, the problem was that The Outer Worlds team he was on was hard to work with and would make a fuss if he asked for anything to be made or implemented. He mentioned something like that in one of his videos and said that after the pushback he got the first time, he just stopped asking for anything else.
