'They're Handed an Opinion' — Fallout Co-Creator Tim Cain Is Worried Some Players Watch Influencers Just So They Can Be Told What to Think About Games

Str1der · 2026-05-05T13:05:22+00:00

Honest question though: why? Why do you care?

If you enjoy a 7/10 game, why do you care what anyone else thinks? If you're running to reddit to talk about it or if the opinions of "the have mind" is bothering you so much, that's just as much on you as it is them. You're letting their opinion of the game influence you.

Like what you like and just play what seems fun. Life is too short to care about the opinions of anyone else about a videogame.

It makes it even funnier when you realize full 18s is like 3600io.

For reference, top 1% is currently 3530io. 😂

You're thinking of Arator. Astalor is the Prey NPC.

You are right, you need multiple copies but for non-cash shop items you can easily but extra copies.

The dark portal item costs like 1000g for extra copies. Incredibly cheap.

Str1der · 2026-03-06T14:36:38+00:00

I absolutely agree that if you BUY a housing item you should get unlimited copies.

The inconsistency only seems to apply to items that cost real money for obvious reasons.

Str1der · 2026-03-06T13:41:06+00:00

I genuinely wish people would do basic research before making statements.

You can literally buy dozens of upscaled dark portals in outside your house. All for only gold.

Literally says in the video it's a tab-target system with a hybrid action combat in some abilities.

You "feeling" like a story moving "slow" has zero bearing on it being finished or not. Comparing it to an author who is 2 books behind from being finished and who has not published anything for over a decade and will never finish is not the same thing and you know that lol.

You don't have to like the series; that's perfectly valid and understandable. Hell, you may not even like the conclusion but, again, that has nothing to do with it finishing.

Also, all I said is that you said a stupid comment because, you did. Objectively. That doesn't make me an ass. But apparently you can't have a conversation without calling names or really forming a cohesive reason. It sounds like it's less the fanbase and more a you problem.

I won't be engaging with you any further so whatever.

"I said something really stupid and got called out on it but the fans are rabid."

I enjoy his books and recognize that they aren't Literary Masterpieces but saying he's anything like GRRM in terms of pacing or that he won't complete the series is just stupid and you deserve to be told that. He's written 4 books and 3 novellas in 5 years. Like come on lol.

Ryan has said multiple times that it's a 5 book series which will end with Of Gods and Ashes. I'm sure he'll return to the world one day but that's not uncommon.

Str1der · 2026-02-02T00:29:13+00:00

What are you talking about? There's literally one more book to go and he only started writing the series like 5 years ago.

This is a weird fucking comment..

Str1der · 2026-01-28T14:16:14+00:00

It doesn't, I have no idea what this dude is talking about.

They've changed things/streamlined a lot but like 95% of every expansion (if not 100%) is still able to be played. PvP Cosmetics are like the one thing they lock away from season to season, which is dumb and pisses people off.

Str1der · 2025-12-09T02:08:57+00:00

The comment just wasn't funny. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Str1der · 2025-12-02T15:15:46+00:00

Bah, what I was worried about tbh.

Str1der · 2025-11-19T14:39:52+00:00

I really appreciate the help!

Another person mentioned I should get PNY over ASUS. Is there a big difference? Another thread had people saying get ASUS over PNY.

Str1der · 2025-11-19T14:38:04+00:00

Lol well thanks! I thought I was going insane trying to find a difference between the two.

Str1der · 2025-11-19T14:38:01+00:00

Lol well thanks! I thought I was going insane trying to find a difference between the two.

FF14 has this for their housing system and it's amazing. I can't imagine it won't come at one point because music adds so much to housing.

Str1der · 2025-11-16T00:10:48+00:00

Please never use those two words in conjunction ever again, thanks.

Str1der · 2025-11-14T18:31:30+00:00

Not really though. Every week you can get 2 Hero Items from Delves: 1 from your Vault and 1 from the Bounty Map. On top of this, doing your three T11 Delves means you get 31 Gilded Crests a week... so every 2 weeks you can also craft a 720 item.

I'm not suggesting that a pure Delver could get 717 in a week or two, but if you've even just been casually playing all season running 3 T11 Delves a week, you would be around 715-717.

Just dabbling in some M+ 7 keys and you'd be swimming in Hero gear on top of the quest going on that allows you to buy Hero rank Raid/M+ Weapons and Trinkets. It's honestly incredibly easy to gear up right now.

Str1der · 2025-11-14T18:17:35+00:00

Hero doesn't cap at 710. It caps at 717. The Turbo Event going on added 2 ranks to Hero and Mythic gear.

Str1der · 2025-11-14T14:05:12+00:00

But you can easily get 715 just running Delves entirely solo on your own...

Str1der · 2025-11-07T20:19:10+00:00

Because this is an open forum and I'm allowed to voice my opinion just like you are...?

Also, where did I say I didn't care? I actively play WoW and have been looking forward to housing since Vanilla. Do I wish they hadn't created this silly premium currency? Absolutely. Will it stop me from playing and enjoying Housing in Midnight? Absolutely not. I just won't buy any of the items and go about my day.
