For those who’ve performed The Outer Worlds 2, you could have loved some entertaining monologues on the radio. Tim Cain, Fallout co-creator and co-director of the primary The Outer Worlds, offered some writing work for Obsidian’s intrepid sequel, and he is beginning to marvel why he was the right man for the job.
“Leonard [Boyarsky] requested me to do one thing for Outer Worlds 2. He mentioned, ‘Hey, might you write some radio lectures?’ I am like, ‘Positive I can do this,'” Cain remembers in a video. “Then he mentioned, ‘Are you able to make all of them mathematical and stuffed with obscure phrases and jargon?’ I am like, ‘Yeah I can do this.'”
The requests did not cease there, although. “After which he mentioned, ‘Are you able to make the professor sound stuffed with themselves, and actually derisive?'” Cain remembers, “and I mentioned, ‘Positive I can… wait, why are you asking me to do that?'”
The penny drops! Cain’s grown a robust following on YouTube in recent times because of his common movies on recreation growth and the trade at massive. His movies, typically over 10 minutes, mix his expansive information of recreation growth with insights into narrative design and different elements of creativity.
Provided that his movies are all merely him speaking, no cuts, they do resemble lectures at instances, making him a super option to pen one thing related for The Outer Worlds 2. He gives scripts for the Order of the Ascendant’s airwaves, since they’re obsessed by numbers and imagine maths will unlock the secrets and techniques of the universe.
Cain all the time comes throughout extra entertaining to me, however perhaps that is the purpose – he could make one thing dry appear fascinating. The Order might positively use a consultant like him, although he is likely to be postpone contributing extra in future installments.
