I talk about some hidden things in my games that either people don't know about or that have some special meaning to me.
p.s. my original Wildstar monk class was called the Stalker, and Wildstar shipped with a Stalker class, but it was very different than the one I designed.
Thing I reference in this video:
My Brother's D&D Miniatures: • My Brother's D&D Minia...
Chocolate I Have Known: chocolateihave...

I am fairly certain, that the seventeenth white chocolate bar in your office was completely fictional and aimed at driving you mad.

100% correct. I use that trick in TTRPGs all the time. Name hostile NPCs "Ruffian A, Ruffian B, Ruffian C, Ruffian E" and watch your players lose their minds looking for Ruffian D.

Chocolate prank reminded me of a joke I've heard as a kid from one of Russian comedians. Two kids somehow brought three pigs to school, labelled them 1, 2 and 4 and released them in corridor. Police locked school for three days trying to find pig №3. 😅

I know a lot of people love Fallout, and I do too, but I have to seriously thank you, and the rest of the development crew, for Arcanum. It has remained in my top 5 since I first played it in 2001. Absolutely fantastic game, and a world I wish we could return to with a new story some day.

Easter Eggs feel like a relic of a different era these days, honestly they're something I want to see be more common again, it was always nice going off of the path and being rewarded with a little acknowledgement or surprise for it. I think it was part of what molded how I play games as thoroughly as I do today.
@Hubip

"people online love to talk about games as if the people involved with them are gone" Well... to be fair, i don't think it would occur to most people that you could contact the devs, haha. Not all of them are easily reached out to, especially Japanese devs! I wish i just could ask Professor F about the design of super ghouls and ghosts... Regarding the (clickbait?) video, it really does seem common nowadays to present your own understanding of something as the absolute truth lol.

One thing with click bait ones is that there will be either willful or accidental errors waiting for pendants to comment with corrections. This of course winds up gamifying youtube so they get recommended again Best course of action is to never respond to anything you don't like in an algorithmic setting

Arcanum portraits are exceptional masterpieces! Not to mention the overall art style of the game. As well as in Fallout. Years fly, however, their graphics style is eternal, it doesn’t look outdated as in many 3-D games. Is it possible to hope to listen to a video about Arcanum art one day? Maybe an interview with one of the artists? One more chat with Leonard?

I have a chocolate recommendation for you. You might have to order it from overseas. It's from a Finnish company called Fazer. Their regular chocolate is the Fazer blue. But the one i'm recommending i called Fazer Marianne, which is chocolate mixed with small crushed pieces of a very mild mint flavored hard candy. Personally I think it's delicious.

Tim, what are your thoughts on open-source software? Is it something you think is important in general, and is it something you might want to see in game development, why or why not? Have you yourself ever created or contributed to an open-source library, and would you ever consider making an open-source game? To be clear, I'm aware there are legal concerns for both in-house and 3rd-party software, I'm mainly talking ideally or prospectively.

I can get people missing the Arcanum portrait for the simple reason that most every public image of you involves a healthy beard. Human brains tends to conflate things like glasses and beards into its "line map" that it draws for facial recognition, so it is not your imagination when you have a brief shock at seeing a person who normally always has a beard and/or glasses suddenly not have one or the other of those things. Your brain literally made the glasses/beard part of its facial recognition.

And if you could focus on how to deal with those people - call them out on this, even better :)

I would of liked a bit more about easter eggs in games in general. More so about how the feedback is and how to place them in the level and what kind of easter eggs should be placed in the game like is it story driven is it just random assets or is it something else that adds to the game and if easter eggs in general gives a game a better feel for the player then not having it in the game.

Many companies are staffed with people who force a culture of "over-indexing on buy-in, and under-indexing on accountability." Everyone wants to give their opinion and believes they are a key stakeholder that should have buy-in on x,y,z, but will not associate themselves with accountability or responsibility of x,y,z.
@gardian06_85
@gardian06_85 6 месяцев назад
for many of those cases they do take responsibility for the thing, but only for positive ramifications, as soon as the result is viewed negatively they don't speak up. and we do want "buy-in" and some kind of ownership given from say the artist to the assets otherwise the amount of effort may not be very high. the big problem with referential things (like Easter-Eggs, or what people refer to as Easter-Eggs) is that they are in jokes, and sometimes they need to be explained. for the purpose of responsibility: we ask the people working on the project to "take ownership" of it, but then we don't credit them for the specific thing, we "just" put their name in the attribution list. for some individuals say they were contracted they made like 3 art assets it didn't work out and they left, but we paid them for their work and we used the assets, we can list those 3 things next to their name, but then the lead artist did 80 assets that is a long list. this is also sometimes an issue with writing, where the writing team might have 5 people, one of which is a notable person, so everyone claims that like all the jokes are theirs almost erasing the other 4 people from the project.

Geez Tim, maybe the reason people seem to report on easter eggs as if the people who put them into the games are dead is because they aren't familiar with any of the developers personally and the developers don't field random emails from strangers.

Hej, first of all thanks for all the insights your giving. Its very interesting to hear as a software developer. I wonder whats your opinion on game sizes. Call of duty being around 200gb and the new starwars battlefront game being 64gb in size. Are they even trying to reduce the size or is this out of scope? As a consumer I find myself not buying or installing such big games because of the download and disk space required.

@fixpontt
@fixpontt 6 месяцев назад
im sorry but and easter egg that means nothing to the audience is not an easter egg, it's self indulgence, a real easter egg is a cultural reference that everybody with knowledge can understand and a really good easter egg fulfills its role to make a meaningful connection between a thing itself and a reason why it pops up in a specific place in a game and the whole conceptualization happens in the brain of the gamer and this gives satisfaction, if it is random or silly it's just laziness from the developer, an easter egg without MEANING is a big nothingburger
@Tobiaszw1
@Tobiaszw1 6 месяцев назад
You can't make an easter egg that EVERYBODY will get. It depends on how much you know. If it's the first piece of media you interact with, you won't understand any references. If you are a fan of their games to the point of knowing the team faces, then it's an easter egg you will understand and others won't.

Easter egg; definition: “An Easter egg is a message, image, or feature hidden in software, a video game, a film, or another - usually electronic - medium” It has nothing to do with anything you’re saying. It is simply a secret. That’s it.
@pelicano1987
@pelicano1987 6 месяцев назад
I think Tim's Easter Eggs follow the same principle of his game's jokes and humour - they must stand on their own, but to those who know the reference, nice. Take the Black Isle reference - although not Jim's - it stands on its own, even for younger audiences who never knew of a Black Isle Studios.

Place is called Sweet Tooth Candies in Newport KY. If you're ever in the Cincy area, I highly suggest hitting them up and giving it a try. Much love and thanks for making games you wanted to make that so many of us could resonate with 💖.
