I have so many ideas for how to structure my dream game, but the ideas vastly outpace the actual time I have to work on it. Maybe not a bad problem to have, but it's overwhelming. Like having massive scope creep before I even sit down to code.

Before you ask, yes, I know: - This is insane/naive/overscoped - This has been tried before - There will necessarily be compromises That said, I've already created things that prove *to me* that it's possible. I love coding for coding's sake, and also I'm not asking permission lol.

The big focus would be on "realistic" NPC simulation. In particular, I want NPCs to have thoughts, opinions, and memories. I want to have a conversation system that allows the user (or another NPC) to explore and influence those thoughts in various ways. (Using systems, NOT language models!)

I would also like the ECS to support some kind of chunked loading, with the simulation of further chunks being more abstracted and calculated less often.

Essentially I want to create an admittedly over-scoped simulation game engine that I can just tinker with long term. I'm thinking it'll probably be text-parser based, as that's the least limiting in terms of the features I want to implement vs my skills (e.g., any art is basically a no-go).

I desperately want to create, but all my time is spent on the wanting.

This Alberta referendum really spotlights how important education is, and why the UCP so desperately wants to destroy it. Every question on the ballot and every piece of propaganda are worded in the absolute most misleading possible way.

Got some rough news about our cat's health yesterday. She's okay - we just need to adjust her diet and keep an eye on things for now. I'm okay - but this is a stark reminder that there is a day approaching where I won't be.

This Rock-to-Swamp shift has to be the most satisfying thing I've ever seen in this game. #noita

Sitting here waiting for these damn spiders to eat their way into the Holy Temple. Got the perfect setup, but no way to dig through brickwork. T.T #noita

Just had a dream where I owned a castle, but I angered a witch and she cast a spell on me that woke me up. I want to be mad, but all I can think about is what a cool and powerful spell that was.
