Been working on implementing the dialogue for one of my favorite capital C Characters I've written these last few days. Darlene, failed actress turned failing drug dealer. Her convo features lots of fun skill interactions, malapropisms and foul language. Looking forward to getting this lady voiced.

27 years old now and barely any signs of cognitive and physical decline yet (face reveal attached)

Understandable that Dark0ne wants to get some rest after 24 years, and this absolutely was foreseeable with some of the moves the site's been making the last few years. Still, I hope we're not in for some corporate enshitification and A"I" integration. Time will tell, I suppose.

Pray for me, I'm in a really bad place rn (until I cross the border that is, WALES BABYYY 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 😎)

As we come to the middle of the year, just wanted to give a big shout out to the whole team for their fantastic work over the last few months. We've continued to make amazing progress on some awesome new pieces of content ranging from quests, to large scale balance overhaul and new interiors.

Not a ton to report vis-a-vis development updates for any of my projects, uni and work have been kicking my ass lately. However, do have a very cool modding-related BTS-type thing coming up within the next month, so keep your eyes peeled for that

This is the funniest movie production fact I’ve ever read

Will probably make a showcase vid of a dialogue sequence soon-ish (picture included), since it's fully voiced and its reactivity and branching paths make it good candidate to show off

New article! NEW ARTICLE!!! Let's talk about the ways that plagiarists and AI are trying to automate sociopathy and why copyright might actually be a powerful tool to fuck with 'em. And, how do we make a world where even copyright is no longer necessary? docseuss.medium.com/copyright-ru...

Proof reader went over the finished script for a quest path and had 0 suggestions, corrections or additions to make. That's a first, but I'll take it 🥳+

The one bit of saving grace about Elon Musk is that he is so incredibly stupid and incompetent that it loops back around to being funny

One thing I still gotta figure out as a writer and designer is how to fight my urge to give every named character an optional "TELL ME ABOUT..." exposition branch

Welcome, to Fallout: The New Frontier. This video serves as a showcase of some new areas and new looks. A longer in depth video will come out soon. I hope everyone enjoys a brief look at the fantastic work that the team has been working diligently on :) www.youtube.com/watch?v=hv76...

Progress update. Mind that two side quests have since been folded into the surrounding main quests as optional objectives rather than standalones

Oblivion remaster looks A: like a remake in all but name and B: pretty cool. Will probably try it once it's on a deep sale & I have the time for it, never actually played the OG despite owning it on Steam

The Living Desert v2.72 is live, bringing you a couple of bugfixes and minor edits: www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mod...

Since the connected quest is pretty much fully written by now, I decided to use my day off to return to work on a level I half-finished 1 1/2 years ago & then dropped for more immediate concerns. Got my work cut out, but you can tell how the finished thing might end up looking

Cleaning out my screenshot folder, so saving visual evidence of this weird bug I once found in FNV for posterity

Oh god... I felt a momentary urge to play Fallout 4 just now... what the hell is wrong with me?!
