Rockstar Games mission design - "The conversation you'll have in your car/on your horse is 5 minutes long. Your objective is 100 meters away."

It's funny seeing GTA fans being like "These will be our last weeks in Los Santos 😭" because Elder Scrolls fans are gonna play ES6 for a week and jump back on Skyrim

Do you think Fallout 5 is taking so long because Todd Howard can't find any more songs from the 50s that mention atom bombs

I spent a few days working on a video about Daggerfall Online but I've seen that the large Patreon goals have been removed. The lead dev is saying live and learn, I admire their response and I've learned too. Gonna scrap the video and not give it attention but I hope it improves

I've learned when some fights aren't worth the headache and I'd rather focus on things that interest me and get me excited. I've dealt with it once before and it's better if I don't do it again

I made a tweet last week about Michael's movies in GTA V being horrible action flicks when his own life is an action movie. But because I mistakenly said he wrote his first film, I had GTA bros in my comments like "Stick to Elder Scrolls BUDDY* and it still makes me laugh

There's a big current Elder Scrolls mod project I've been looking into. Completely vibe coded, built entirely with Claude which also includes AI generated music and art assets. The kicker? Their patreon is asking for over $13k for its highest tier to pay for the AI model

One of the more unique bugs I've gotten in a Bethesda creation engine game. The game suddenly thinking my assault rifle is a minigun

My favourite thing about GTA VI so far is how much they've improved the BMW knockoffs in universe. It's a great recreation of a convertible E30. The ones in GTA Online looked horrible and this one looks a lot more accurate. Revealing myself as a car nerd 🤓

There's something funny about Michael DeSanta's life being a huge action flick but then when he writes his own action movie it's terrible

Wait, he produced the first movie then founded his own company but him thinking meltdown was quality is an indicator of the rest of his work I'm not a larper

There was a time during school where the teacher was describing a movie she couldn't remember the name of but it involved time travel and was really sad at the end. I confidently said "Click" out loud to the whole class and that is my most embarrassing moment

When a song starts with "Hello?" You probably think of Adele or Lionel Richie. I think of Electric Light Orchestra (air of superiority)

I've been writing my replies to YouTube comments more genuinely so it doesn't sound like the auto suggest AI comments it recommends to write for me and that in itself is a huge problem

Response: Yes - You're a liar. You don't even look like the Count Response: No - No? Then get out of my way! This is the context when you don't speak to the count first before talking to Mazoga. After talking to the Count she'll say "The Count? Then I can talk to you." I didn't Google this.

Are you the Count?

I always get a lot of nice DMs asking me what Morrowind mods I'd recommend to modernize the experience for a first playthrough and I want to respond with this

The beginning of The Witcher 3 will be like, "Here's a cool quest to hunt down a beast tormenting the locals! You have to be level 48"

Very kind of THQ to send me over a key of Gothic 2 for consoles! Been really enjoying these ports and I know what I'm playing for the week. Been meaning to do vids on the classic Gothic games soon 👀

The Gothic 2 console rerelease and The Witcher 3 remaster both release tomorrow and I think that's a beautiful thing since the Witcher 1 was inspired by Gothic

Watching Oblivion Remastered retrospectives that discuss how the art style and graphics don't represent the original game well at all when I had those same worries before launch and got ripped apart for it

Morrowind: Stand up, there you go. You were dreaming so I didn't want to disturb you. What's your name? :) Oblivion:

You got a wife back home? Tell you what. I'm getting out of here in a couple of weeks. When I get back to Morrowind I'll look her up.
