Various mini printing and painting projects
Writing short spec fic stories
Baldur's gate 2 minor spoilers?
Hexxat has been the worst. It's in character for her at least, but she's so useless as a party member that despite how interesting I found her quest, after the boss kicked my ass a couple of times she got killed by a troll and I left her there lmao.
Also the spirits that want the tomb opened makes sense, but them wanting the tomb opened and then attacking me for opening it, does not, not the way it's presented anyway...
Baldur's gate 2
I get the urgency of characters who joined you for a particular quest wanting to leave if you don't engage with their quests but the way its implemented is infuriating.
Like Minsc nagging you about some random quest all the time is a pain, though at least he doesn't threaten to leave over it.
But anyone nagging me *in the middle of another quest* is ridiculous. "Hey Faun, I know one of your old friends has been cursed and keeps dying, but I'm gonna bounce if you don't help me".
@ackthrice Set the traps!
Deliberately avoiding calling it a game because while there are a few minor puzzles, the emphasis for me is more on interaction and choosing where the story takes you/you take the story.
You can 'complete' it v quickly, but my hope is that people will want to explore and find out whats happening and talk to people etc
believing that people have True Names - hokey but understandable
believing that each person has a single True Name - unduly limiting but not impossible
believing that a person's One True Name is whatever a government registry has on their records - the perfect blend of authoritarian and bureaucratic
@Stoori the New Roman Times, with such headlines as:
These 11 Moderate Plebians See a Rome That Others Don't
-- For its latest focus group, Times Opinion spoke with 11 middle-of-the-road peasants about culture war issues: Christianity, Gaul, and the senatorial class.
Are We Sure Rome Is Not At War In Asia?
-- If we have so far avoided calling it war, maybe that's only because we've become so uncertain of the meaning of the word.
Paganism Made a Faustian Bargain With Celebrity Culture. Now It's Paying the Price.
-- How did modern paganism lose Rome v. Jesus Christ of Nazareth? An answer lies in Constantine's Edict of Milan.
