I haven’t had a chance to watch the full thing yet, but YouTuber Tom Evans has assembled an epic 8-hour documentary featuring an impressive number of Morrowind developers, including some who weren’t involved in my 2019 oral history. Pretty wild:

This FE announcement is everything I wanted honestly, super excited to be in Fodlan again. I guess I'd prefer it to be in the far future or on a different continent in the same world rather than the past, but this is great too.

This morning a friend gifted me this cake, meant to celebrate yesterday's release of the game 😭 Well, that may have been moved, but her cake is amazing anyway and I was very touched 💖

Sorry for politics, but. Watching USA's well established institutions speedrun government corruption is almost more depressing than having witnessed Russia's attempts at democracy strangled in their infancy. I wonder what it will take to right this course, I have to believe it's still possible.

Anybody who knows anybody that might be interested in Demonschool and might give it a little boost, please entice them to fill out this form! We put a lot into this game and we really want people to see it.

Release date! Release date! As announced this morning in ~Indie World Japan~ Demonschool is coming September 3rd! We have been working really hard on this. We hope you will enjoy it.

[worst possible stuff happening everywhere] man why do I feel bad

Today on "weird things heard on YouTube": had a video on in the background and the guy kept using the word "naval" like it's a noun and not an adjective, he kept saying "the naval". Clearly a native English speaker, too. The hell?

Played some ZZZ. A bit shocked by it's production value and density, but also wondering if its battles actually get any variety from its dozen different progression systems. Won't find that out tho, seems like unlocking enough of the game to really get a feel of that would take like 200 hours

Finished Liveship Traders and absolutely loved it. I think it improves on almost everything compared to Farseer, which were already very solid books. Only the breakneck pacing of book 3 is a bit too much imo. But this cast and their part of the world have completely won me over.

Time to post it again.

I wanna play a videogame real bad

I don't know anything about fantasy, so when I've started reading the Farseer trilogy on a whim I did not know the "trilogy" is only a start of a 16 book series 😅 But now I'm on book 3 and absolutely hooked so I will see other authors in about 2 years, I suppose.

Oh the irony, to be unable to regularly play games during what is, apparently, a sort of turn-based combat renaissance. My time has come!! But it is postponed until my kid grows up a bit lol

If I ever have to get an Irish visa again... I don't, because fuck doing this ever again. Our documents folder is about to be like 20 cm thick at this point.

Finished Avowed yesterday. Had a good time with it overall, but its rhythm got too repetitive eventually, to the point that I checked out and turned on YT in the background by the time I got to Galawain's Tusks. Regretted it, too, because the conflict around Solace is the most interesting one imo.

Trying not to think about the (very likely) upcoming relocation because it makes my heart rate spike. At this point like 75% of my brain power is dedicated to actively suppressing thoughts about certain things. Just life in 2025, am I right

It's the third day in a row, so it seems the daughter's just decided we wake up at 5:20 now

Aversion to "waste time" by replaying games I've already finished VS the inescapable urge to start yet another Deadfire walkthrough

I have been been officially granted employment permit to come work in Ireland. I am both excited and incredibly scared and getting cold feet about it 🥲 It wasn't easy uprooting myself the first time, I imagine it will only be more difficult now, and I am also worried about people we leave here.

Pretty happy with Avowed so far (in the 2nd zone). Had a bit of a rough start with it, but once I'd stopped expecting an RPG, embraced the Action RPG collectathon vibes and found a playstyle that clicked (gun mage) it really drew me in. Having a blast exploring every nook and cranny.

I am so happy that recent years gave us a new pillar of the CRPG genre. A real labor of love, a game that combines gameplay and role-playing variety, fantastic cast of characters, brilliant soundtrack and a sweeping story that takes itself seriously. I love you, Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous.

Welp, I accidentally deleted my in-progress Phantom Liberty save so now I can't get the missing endings for it, or The Tower ending, without playing from the start. I think I'll consider my Cyberpunk 2077 journey done for now, it's been fucking amazing.

Over the past few months we've been watching all the Star Wars movies - in production order, before you ask - with our neighbour who'd never seen a single one. We're watching them like a TV show where each movie takes a couple sessions, so it's been very slow and gave us time to digest everything.

I just hate cooking, I hate cooking so much. The entire process of cooking, from assembling the grocery list to washing the dishes afterwards, is my dysfunctional brain's nightmare. It's friction after friction, it's the mental equivalent of chalkboard scraping, I hate all of it.

I have started taking Slovak courses to get ready for the citizenship exam, and I'm afraid this might be the last straw for my ability to manage my time. Absolutely cannot handle this week.

Anyway, I bought a new phone, and now the setup process includes not only deleting garbage apps but turning off all the AI features. A real masterstroke on Samsung S24 is how by default the power button opens it's AI thing instead of doing the stuff you expect from the "power button".

Every single fingerprint sensor can only read my prints 1-2 times out of 10, like even adding a fingerprint takes ages because it keeps telling me to try again. I just don't want to use face recognition on my phone, man.

Holy shit he's back

For me, this year consisted of wild mood swings on top of the now-constant undercurrent of guilt and helpless despair. The total ruin of ambitions and personal drive I felt in '22 is occasionally subsiding to make way for wild frustration, but not often enough to fuel consistent motivation.

Сегодня купили в подарок соседке кружку (на тему общей inside joke). Затем купили вместо упаковочной бумаги цветную плёнку для ламинирования (её рулоны были смешаны с рулонами упаковочной). Затем ребенок нашла коробку с подарком и швырнула её об пол, кружка разбита вдребезги. Вот такой вот день.

I don't draw anymore, I just have ideas stewing in my head all day until eventually I get over them. Currently I'm absolutely aching to make a C2077 fanart in the style of X-Girl (properly according to PC-98 specs for the heck of it). I probably won't get an opportunity.

I really gotta start drawing again in my free hour before sleep, but I am so tired by that time 😞

Finally finished Phantom Liberty yesterday. Absolute kino.

The baby woke up around midnight, decided it's morning and time to do anything but sleep, and kept us up for the next 2 hours. Feeling this devastated the next morning makes me wonder how we ever survived the first 4 months.

Slowly working my way through the new and (massively) improved C2077 and I really warmed up to male V this time. Neither actor sells the "badass" lines in my opinion, they're inescapably cringe, but the more touching, desperate and goofy V moments really endeared him to me.

Однажды сценарист написал хоррор, в котором не было ничего про беременность, и у него отвалилась жопа

Сильно нужно о них с кем-нибудь поговорить, но не с кем. У меня нет лучшей подруги, с которой можно потрындеть о личных вещах, а у пары достаточно близких людей всё и так тяжело, и мне неловко им ныть о своих юропиан проблемс. Что-то как-то хуёво с этого.

Played Veilguard for like an hour yesterday. Just looking at the character creator made me feel tired so I used a preset with different hair. I used to install mods for better character creation, man, what happened to me

Having a really bad time increasingly often lately. I feel like I'm held together only by the weight of my adult responsibilities.

The FOMO is killing me, I want to play Veilguard to see for myself if it's as bad/good as different people say.

Hello! I'm Florent Boston, I mainly do environment design and I love semi-realistic and cartoon styles :)

I'm so sorry

Hello, my name is Catherine, and I post art every few years, now on Bluesky.

No earthly idea why I got so many new followers on Bsky now, but good timing because I missed the time to re-activate my twitter main so now it's dead and gone lol. Guess this is as close as I have to a professional account now. Not that I'll use it anytime soon.

Coworker picked up this copy of Clock Tower 2 for 100 yen, clearly complete with the original box art. And check out that perfect rendering of the PlayStation logo (cut from the included pamphlet)

The baby's going to sleep a little bit earlier now, so I occasionally get 1 hour of free time in the evenings. I almost forgot what that feels like.

We're so deep into this nightmare that my emotional reaction to 133 dead people is pretty muted tbh, but everything around that is so bleak, too. Putler immediately blames Ukraine, videos leaked of brutal torture of a suspect, cops beating up journalists because that's all they're good for.
