Fallout co-creator Tim Cain, who is known for… well, co-creating Fallout, has been a font of videogame wisdom on his own personal YouTube channel for the past three years: That time is fast approaching its end, though, as Cain feels like he’s coming to the end of both the stories he wanted to share when he began the endeavour.
“I do seem to be winding down on my list of topics,” says Cain in his latest. “I wanted to point out, the channel is probably nearing the point where I see it being done.

Chances are he’ll keep doing what he’s been doing since he came out of semi-retirement, lending a hand at Obsidian. Previously, Cain had been offering more limited aid to games like The Outer Worlds 2.

I’m sure whatever he lends his hand to next is bound to be just as solid.
