Fallout creator laments the loss of the game’s earliest development materials: ‘I had that in digital form and was ordered to destroy it’

Tim Cain, the creator of the original Fallout, shared insights on his YouTube channel about his career and the game's origins, including the purposes of the Vaults and the game's setting in 2161. He recounted a past incident with publisher Interplay, where he was compelled to destroy a collection of early Fallout materials, including design notes and game builds, to avoid legal conflict. Cain highlighted the industry's failure in game preservation, noting that when he left Fallout, he was instructed to destroy his entire archive. A study indicated that about 87% of all games created are now unplayable without piracy or archival visits, underscoring the challenges in preserving both games and development materials.

This Steam hack has saved me a ton of money on PC games

Steam bundles allow gamers to purchase multiple games at a discounted rate, adjusting prices based on titles already owned. For example, the Castlevania Dominus Collection was initially priced at a higher amount but was acquired for a lower price due to existing ownership of included games like Dead Cells and its DLC. Some games, like Selaco, appear in multiple bundles, enabling further discounts. Discounts apply to games in a player's library, even when purchased through third-party sellers. Steam bundles help users discover new games, such as Echo Point Nova through the Selaco bundle. Notable bundles also include larger titles like Metaphor: ReFantazio and Persona 5 Royal. However, finding bundles can be challenging due to inconsistent listings on Steam. Gamers can use the wishlist feature to track prices and discover discounts, as demonstrated with the Castlevania Dominus Collection. Recent high-quality bundles from publishers have significantly enhanced the gaming library for players.
