I don't care what your song is. I'm just a sucker for a sick guitar riff.
When you make a deliberately grindy quest in which you need to kill 792 of an enemy... it's REALLY not that fun to playtest it to make sure it works right.
Have any of you read Sutter Kane?
I always find it amusing when devs design things in their game with no concept of human behavior and no drive to study human behavior. It's like trying to cook a meal without knowing how a stove works.
"Humanity can't go very long without conflict. We can never have peace because people will always find reasons to hate each other. We shouldn't work towards peace, we should work towards a safe outlet for our aggression."
"Closure only exists in fantasy. Nobody gets closure in the real world. The best people can manage is learning to live with the way the world shook out."
Me: "Raids are like having a second unpaid job that only idiots would do."
Raid Leader: "You're calling anyone who likes raids an idiot."
Me: "You show up at the same time every week, turn off your brain and become a robot to do mundane stuff for a hoped reward you might not ever get. That's a job. Why are you doing it for free if you're not an idiot?"
It feels weird going back to old multiplayer games with your friends and then proceeding to curb-stomp teams of max levels.
Someone: "I'm not mad, what about the way I replied to you makes you think I'm mad?"
First reply to me: [Insert personal attack]
Me: "Oh... I don't know..."
"Be as honest as you possibly can as often as you can. It makes your lies much easier to believe."
I think my new argument against people who decide to question the voracity of my character is just going to be to link them to my music playlist and challenge them to figure out who I am based on the music there.
Facebook: "Let's host a video of someone comparing Cyberpunk 2077 to GTA5!"
Me: "Why? They're both crap games for different reasons. What's the point of comparing crap to crap?"
Hey @Tai_MT, I've been wondering this for a while now... But what is your avatar supposed to depict exactly? Cuz it looks like a Cat humping a Bunny...
Most hype you'll get out of Cyberpunk 2077? Opening intro. Look man, Pacifica is still Pacifica. Yes, I let it play every single time.
As a writer, one of the most annoying things I encounter is people who write "future technology" as if it were magic. "I don't have to explain how it works! It's so advanced it's like magic!". Uh, no, you need to explain how you're breaking the laws of reality. Write Fantasy otherwise.
Don't forget, aspiring writers: Personality isn't what your characters do, it is WHY they do it.
Why "Games Journalism" is a joke. A journalist for Cyberpunk 2077 admits to playing almost no part of the game at all, gives the game a 7/10 after not playing it, gets called out by people on YouTube... then turns off comments on their video.
Microsoft: Hey, let's waste money advertising the Xbox Series X when nobody has any in stock, we don't seem to be making more, we aren't taking preorders and you can't get on a waiting list. BEST. IDEA. EVER.
EA: "Kids are buying currency, not using money to gamble. It shouldn't be illegal!"
Me: "So... kids should be allowed into casinos to buy poker chips and not spend them at the blackjack table? Pretty sure, even buying currency used to gamble is illegal for children." -

Work-in-progress dwarf character. Got him mostly there but he needs some earrings or hair jewellery.
