Hey Tim!!!!! Thanks for the kind words on your time on set and in Nuka Break! Loved having you in it and very happy you had a memorable experience! I'm happy you still have fond memories of that time! Thank you for sharing!!!! Hope you're doing well! -Zack

Tim's iconic line "Very nice 3000 series I had a 2000 myself" and the way he laughed after he shot the guy as soon as I seen the guy in the hat I knew it was Tim

Never realized you were part of the series! I remember watching it back in 2013 for the first time. Revisited it back in 2021 and it's still a great series. Those guys did a great job on the show.

Nuka Break was probably one of, if not the most passionate fan project I've ever seen get put together. I also thought you and Chris were by far the funniest and most Fallout-y part of that climactic final battle too, lol.

Tim! Thanks for chatting about Nuka-Break! I Loved working on this project so much. One of the best parts was getting to meet you and Chris! I loved being on set with you in between takes chatting Fallout and getting insights into how it all came to be! :)

I couldn't imagine what its like to basically make something and then witness people who are so incredibly passionate about the thing you made

For all their faults Bethesda were class acts about Nuka Break. Where many other right holders would just cease&desist Bethesda linked to them and congratulated them.

I remember discovering Fallout as well as Nuka Break. It instantly became one of my favorite game series as well as favorite IP's. Love your stuff, Tim. So glad I found your channel, you've convinced me to go into game dev!

I just found out about nuka break because of you. Watching made my week. Your scenes in the big battle with the BB gun made me laugh. Thanks

Rewatched season 1 and 2 like two months ago! What a great film planted my love for new vegas and the callbacks to the old games just gave me all the right dopamine hits haha. Loved this watch

I love that series, and I was a kickstarter backer on it. Whay I loved about the series was it was clearly made by people who love Fallout and with a reasonably small budget made something great.

I love Fallout Nuka Break! That was my high-school days. That was an interesting time to be a fan. Post New Vegas pre Fallout 4. Lots of amazing lore videos, from channels like ShoddyCast and amazing fan shorts like Nuka Break.

If there is any justice in the world, there is a video where Michele Specht (Red) records a video and talks about meeting Tim Cain and she says "and I think he brought his own gun!" :)

I really enjoyed the little details that Nuka Break captured about fallout and how they managed to weave a space for their story from the existing material, there was a lot of talent involved and it was clearly a passion project. It was heartbreaking that they weren't able to work on their Legend of Grimlock series after their company was... acquired. I'd put hours into that game and wanted to see what they'd come up with. It'll certainly be interesting to see how the new fallout tv show compares to Nuka Break’s smaller project. I'm thinking a litle cameo for Tim as a vault overseer or perhaps a BoS elder!

Holy shit. Thanks Tim, for pointing me to this awesome gem of a series. Never heard of it until just now.

I'd forgotten about Nuka Break until your video. Thanks for reminding me of that gem of a series!

On the flip side, I can only imagine how psyched Fallout fans that big were to meet Tim Cain himself!

I'm so, so glad that Bethesda not only allowed Nuka Break but embraced it. It could have been so easy for them to throw the lawyer money around and shut the show down after the first short film but they didn't. They even embraced it! One of the very rare times a big studio/publisher actually allowed a passionate community project to blossom.

Red Star is a classic I'll come back to every once in a while.

Oh man, thanks for talking about Nuka Break! This was one of my first Kickstarter projects after Double Fine, good times. They really knocked it out of the park, incredible production design for the budget, I was so proud of them. Amazing costumes and so funny!

Thank you for sharing this, never heard of it and the production values are through the roof for an indie/fan series, amazing :D

Now we can’t forget that Zack was part of Indy Mogul for a while.

We loved you in Nuka Break!! You looked great

Nuka Break is downright amazing. The quality and passion is just OOZING from it. And it's funny how you think of your involvement as small, but every time there's a discussion about it, it's agreed on that the sole fact that you and Chris Avellone took part in the project, basically doubles its legitimacy as a "proper" entry into the Fallout universe. TL;DR: Nuka Break on its own is *amazing*, but with you two guys in it, it's *canon*. At least to many of us ;)

I just rewatched the series with my friend Ben at work since we've had some down time. And it was better than what I remembered. I didn't even realize two legends were part of the show. It's absolutely mind-blowing! Thank you and the nukabreak team, fantastic work! I'm just hoping that this new fallout TV show is going to be just as good as nuka break

Nuka Break was a fantastic show and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

I loved Nuka Break. I laughed when I saw you and Chris in it. I was really sad to see what happened to their company.

Hi Tim, it’s me Christopher, love your videos. :)

I had no idea there was a 2nd season of Nuka Break! And I was super into the first (what I thought was the only) season of it. Great, goofy, lore-friendly fun. Thanks for posting the links, Tim!

I remember Nuka Break. I was pretty new to Fallout when it came out and was obsessed with all things Fallout. I must watch it again.

I love hearing behind the scenes stuff like this! Thank you!

Audio quality now is great!

I just went and watched your cameos on Nuka Break, I thought you did really well, the scenes were really funny and natural!

Well Tim, you're absolutely right -- hearing you talk about Nuka Break IS pretty cool! (Especially those of us who remember lunchtable discussions about it from back when it first went up, or have seen the frame shown at 3:58 used as a reaction image in many, many Fallout threads)

I was absolutely obsessed with nuka break in high school!

Haven't heard of Nuka Break in a long while now, it's nice to see you talking about it!

fallout 1 and 2 are amazing thank you for making such a masterpiece

You guys did an amazing job. I wish they would pick yall up for the HBO series. I can rewatch all seasons and fall in love with the show all over again. ❤ you guys are just so awesome to put it together. Thank you for bringing my favorite games to life.

i am not even that surprised you were involved with this in any regard. this is my favorite piece of media for fallout. Twig, Zack Finfrock, i really hope he has some sort of cameo in the Amazon series.

You mentioned what the ruined town on set look liked and it made me think of a question I've always had about the art in Fallout1 and 2. With the exceptions of towns like New Reno and Klamath, which obviously had pre-war buildings, where the villages intended to be post war adobe structures or was that just a limitation of the engine of the time.

Wow I saw nuka break when it came out and was a huge fan. I Didn’t even know you had any involvement in it! It’s been a long time since I watched it though

i was wondering when you would talk about this. it's nice to hear how enjoyable your experience was!

Thanks for sharing. It was a real treat seeing you and Avallone in the second season.

Thank you for introducing me to a great fan series. I hadn't come across it yet, but it makes sense, since I'm fairly new to the fanbase.

I think Nuka Break is the only time I ever seen a ghoul go feral.

Something made me look up Nuka Break yesterday and watch it again, and for the first time I noticed you and Avelone's cameo. I never did back in 2012. Its crazy how you released this video a day later.

Awesome! Thank-you for sharing your experience filming Nuka Break!

Didnt expect a video on this. Thats awesome. Tim Cain with another big W

I've never even heard of Fallout Nuka Break! Thanks for sharing, I'll check it out.

Nuka Break was so good. I had no idea you were involved. Now I'll watch it again.

Loved that show and it's amazing you got to be a part of it.

I never heard about this until now, I'm going to have to check that out!

Wow I only saw first season back in the day and had no idea you were in second. Gonna watch asap.

Hi Tim, First of all, thank you for making these video. Regardless of a topic, it's always a joy to listen to your stories. I'd like to ask a question about the data structures in Arcanum that you've made a video about some time ago. I've been playing around with pretty much the same concept of designing data structures for game entities in one of the projects I'm working on - specifically using entity prototypes as the base data containers and "overrides" for storing overriden data fields for actual entity instances in the game's world (map/scene/sector). I'm specifically interested in how Arcanum handles the deserialization of these "overrides" from the stored binary data. From what you've said in the aforementioned video, I understand there's a bitmask/bitfield that is used to determine which data fields are supposed to be read from the prototype (bit = 0) and which from the override (bit = 1). You've also mentioned that the overrides are stored in order in which they are set in the bitfield. All that is perfectly clear (and clever!). The one thing that I'm not quite sure about though is how are these overrides deserialized back from binary data - specifically how is their type resolved in C/C++, meaning without any metadata, Reflection-like systems, and generally no runtime type resolving or casting. As I understand it, when there are, say, two data fields marked in the bitfield as overriden, the game will read them from the binary data that should equally contain 2 serialized values. But how are these values deserialized at runtime, when we don't know what types they should be interpreted as at runtime? Or are the overrides stored in binary along with some identifier to which there is a manually hardcoded mapping determining the type? Perhaps I'm just missing some trivial detail here, but this issue has kept my mind occupied for a couple of weeks now and I would appreciate any leads to finally bring it "the peace of understanding".

I havent seen nukabreak but now I need to give it a watch

Vic is one of my favourite voice actors of all time!!

I didn't even know there was a Nuka Break series. I'll definitely have to watch it now :)

Curious your thoughts with the on-going Unity news i.e. regarding the changes to payment plans, on if this would be a reason to rate rolling your own engine higher now? Or if there are ways to design code / games that could be more portable to another engine in the event you had to abandon ship a larger one?

Nuka break was one of the most impressive web series ive ever watched

When are the Fallout 1 let's plays coming Mr. Cain?

had no idea this exists, have to watch it now :)

Thank you for a wonderful story!

I had no idea there was a show, sounds cool. Must be amazing to see how much of an impact Fallout had.

Thank you for sharing this story ❤

I love Nuka Break so much I cosplay as the Overseer of Vault 10... which my size works for!

Hey, Tim. I just found an awesome fan film for Fallout 4 called Fallout Deadweight. I really enjoyed it. I am not a part if it. I am just a fan and thought you would like it.

It is interesting how I was curious what happened to the Nuka Break folks, and the KZfaq algorithm delivered a recent video from Zack Finfrock - seems he is not doing so well unfortunately. Do wonder what the rest are up to, if they kept working in the same industry or pivoted after what happened.

What a coinsidence i watched it few days ago I absolutly loved it, my only complaint isnthat for me as a non native speaker sometimes dialogue was unincoprehensible and i can't find official subtitles

Late ninety-one - early ninety-two is where I would've stuck as well.

I've only seen clips of your appearance as well as Chris' appearance. Never knew these were whole seasons! And this brings up a question, has anyone from the Amazon series contacted you for consultation? Also, I know it was a weird scenario due to the release of Outer Worlds during the specific time period, but did you ever get around to trying Fallout 76?

Ow my, first time knowing this even existed!

I remember this! I think I liked it. 😅

Wow, didn't even know you were in that series, watched it like years ago

I've never even heard of this. I'll have a look!

Loved the video! So Tim how much time have you sunk into the Starfield ship creator?

I am so happy to hear Chris being mentioned again. Missed him 😢

Love Nuka Break!

It was pretty cool indeed! 😊

I love your thumb nails man

Yeah, I remember mr. Avellone running around with a bat upside down. It was hilarious

Hey I just made a TikTok about Nuka Break not that long ago!!! Talking about how awesome it is and how it didn't get enough hype!!! I didn't know all these details so thank you! Zach commented on the TikTok thanking me for it but you guys did so great that there's no thanks needed for stating facts ❤

Loved it.

I really hope that new Fallout series lives up to be as good as Nuka Break. but i dont know if i should have my hopes up for it.

Nuka Break Is Coming Back!!!

At the 2017 reboot develop, you referred to the post-mortem of fallout 3 and New Vegas, do you still have that idea book and can you do a video on it, plz 🙏 good sir

Nuka Break was awesome!!!!!

Woah, no way... I had no idea you were involved

What do you think about the Amazon produced show coming out next year?

I watched Nuka Break when it was released and re-watch every couple of years. If the Fallout TV show is no good, I'll just watch Nuka Break again.

Such a great series!

I had no idea that there was a season 2

Hey Tim! So Just wondering...what happened to other continents in the Fallout Universe according to you?

Hey Tim. Have you been following the fallout around Unity? Any thoughts? Is making a commercially available game engine something you'd ever consider doing?

If they had asked to to come and advise on the upcoming Fallout series would you have done it Tim?

Gettin paid to wait around - that's the movies! 😊

I don't know if it would be possible given all the previous drama but it would be really great if you could get an interview with Chris Avellone on this channel (similar to your Leonard Boyarsky talk) there is a relative dearth of candid discussions with him on KZfaq, at least that I can find. I know you didn't work anywhere nearly as closely with him as you did with Leonard, but would love to hear you guys talk about things.

I guess I was too young at the time to realize but wow! I had no idea that was you, all this time! I would've asked about it at some point otherwise. I bet it's the same for many others, in that regard

I still watch it atleast once a year. Its soo good

Oh yeah those were fun times. When you first showed up with MCA I pointed to the screen and shouted "wait wait wait it´s Tim! And Chris!", like a little girl watching an idol instead of a 40 year old being treated for depression. The entire community loved it.

Did you aim for the eyes?
