Gonna see One Battle After Another on IMAX on Tuesday, fantastic occasion to be a longtime PTA head

Wanderer über dem Nebelmeer

I may not be diagnosed, but I am peer reviewed.

youtu.be/IbazquJowJc?... And here's the entire segment in which this system comes to bear, because why not! #fallout #falloutnewvegas #fnv #gamedev #indiedev #modding

youtu.be/XWhOV7rvg3w?... Trying to copy the Outer Worlds' stealth system where you have a limited number of chances to talk your way out if caught breaking in somewhere. Surprisingly easy to implement! #fallout #falloutnewvegas #fnv #gamedev #indiedev #modding

As a matter of fact, I hate grammatical analysis so fucking much that I'll have no choice but to swap out my minor 🙃 Linguistics is linguistics and literary studies is literary studies and never the twain *should* meet imho

This writer must be having the most batshit day

About 10 chapters deep into the novelization of 'Headhunting' and enjoying it so far. It's a nice, brisk read. Here's hoping for more down the line.

True to the Malkavian spirit, I got the dancing werewolf easter egg ending, aka the only real ending. Shoutout to Wesp5 for making the game remotely playable!

I wish I had it in me to love anything as much as Nexusmods loves randomly logging me out of my account on a weekly basis 😔

Much like "crab", industrial music is constantly re-evolving from first principles basically anywhere where there's a bunch of metal and plastic laying about

„Wir leben seit Jahren über unsere Verhältnisse."

youtu.be/RTn7YvXzfh4?... Th3overseer, author of New Vegas mods such as Depths of Depravity and The High Desert is adapting and concluding his mod series in a book format; 'The Initiation' will be first adaptation to release on September 1st 2025

All of this. *All* of it. Whenever someone deigns to defend the machine to you, send them this. "They want to build a genie to grant them wishes, and their wish is that nobody ever has to make art again. They want to create a new kind of mind, so they can force it into mindless servitude."

Holy fucking shit

In case you missed it Youtube quietly started injecting GenAI in videos without the users consent 🫠 www.bbc.com/future/artic...

Something strange I keep noticing in online writers' circles is the amount of memes about how incredibly hard writing is, and how they procrastinate forever on their projects and would rather do anything but write. Like, maybe get a hobby you actually enjoy?

www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/ima... Another quest teaser available for your perusal, this time concerning a side quest in my mod! (It's the one where you can chomp down on a live wire and die instantly.) #fallout #falloutnewvegas #fnv #gamedev #indiedev #modding

rise and shine!!!

Ignore my earlier post, I've since made a vital revision to the sequence which at long last has made the mod playable youtu.be/i-57UwM0y8A?...

Alright, quest is 99% done, the remaining 1% being some auxiliary scripting for a sex scene (extra gratuitous, just how god intended) and a Someguy-style raider takeover if you depopulate the quest location. But famously that final percentile tends to be a torturous crawl...

Me writing a non-linear quest with multiple paths and outcomes: Haha fuck yeah!!! Yes!! Me finding 20 gajillion edge case bugs in a single test run: Well this fucking sucks. What the fuck.

My take on season 2 of Amazon's Fallout show: I did not care for the first season and will likely not watch the second, *BUT* I will *HAPPILY* accept the inevitable donation point bump over the 2 months of its runtime 🤑💸💸 Best see about getting some stuff release-worthy till December

Alright, time to resume work on that side quest I haven't touched in months - let's look at the script to remind myself where I left o...

Finished the writing and editing process for two side quests today! Wasn't even planning on continuing after completing the first, but hey, I'll take it! Here's some excerpts from various characters and situations that are now ready to materialize in-engine

Attention, #voiceactors! My buddy @ashtonlouis.bsky.social just posted a #castingcall for a Fallout: New Vegas mod in need of voice acting! More roles to be added, so keep an eye out! www.castingcall.club/projects/for... #castingcallclub #fallout #newvegas #falloutnewvegas #modding #falloutmodding

Patient, sobbing: But Doctor, I AM Pagliacci! ChatGPT: Apologies. I didn't realise when recommending Pagliacci's epic show to cure your depression that you were the genius himself. I'm impressed! With regards to your initial question, I can recommend seeing the Great Clown Pagliacci.

One of the more esoteric groups introduced in "Westside Story" are the Thespians, a post-apocalyptic cult descending from a pre-war theater troupe, obsessively waxing poetic, wiedling swords and masks and treating Shakespeare & Co as unrecognised prophets. A very dramatic bunch.

Battling a real, physical urge to replay Disco Elysium rn

One playtester who went in blind was able to follow the plot and remember all the actors involved without great difficulty, which means I need to step my game up if I want for the mod to be a true Noir experience or for my future self to be considered The Postmodernist of FNV modding

Fantastic news: you can buy ad space on the Milan Cathedral

RIP Tom Lehrer ‘Political satire became obsolete when Henry Kissinger was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.' youtu.be/TIoBrob3bjI?...

Dunno if I mentioned it before, but me and a close friend are working on a horror comedy novella inspired by our incandescent hatred of a certain tech billionaire & it's coming along really well & contains some of my favorite writing I've produced hence far

Gonna force some of my friends to playtest Westside Story next week (at gunpoint). Gonna be interesting hearing some feedback after ~9 months since someone else but me got to try it, mod's implementation has progressed a lot since then

General question - what are your thoughts on NPC-to-NPC conversations in Fallout & Fallout mods, particularly ones on the lengthier side? To be avoided / kept brief at all costs or fine by you so long as they're entertaining / narratively important?

Alright, it's 90% implemented and mostly working as intended now. Have a screenshot, as a treat

In my currently ongoing process of scripting a complex, reactive dialogue sequence with multiple speakers and outcomes, I am finally providing an answer to the age-old question 'what if there was a Rube Goldberg machine that was sentient and evil and wanted to kill its creator'?

Having written the exam today, I stand by what I said. *Fuck* grammatical analysis, all my homies hate grammatical analysis

youtu.be/RsjLhZNC00Y?... I suppose this passes for a gameplay showcase if you squint hard enough #falloutnewvegas #falloutmodding

I'm bad at announcing things on here! A few days ago, I released a new Interiors Improved mod that overhauls the LVB Station interior. Go check it out! www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mod...

Semester's break is so damn close I can almost *taste* it. Just 1 1/2 weeks to go and I'm off till mid-October. Betcha I'm gonna make the most of it.

POV: you caught me pissing in the sink

Shoutout to VTMB's Unofficial Patch + for allowing you to skip 95% of the bafflingly awful Hollywood sewer level, greatly appreciated 🙏

Giving this girthy boy a read starting today, let's see what the fuzz is about. Get back to you in about, uhh, 10 months
