Reintroduction post! I'm Nick, a level designer at Respawn Entertainment where I've worked on both Jedi: Fallen Order and Jedi: Survivor. Outside of my day job I do some TTRPG design which will eventually see the light of day. Currently I'm working on a hack for Mothership!

Late night diners are an american institution and may they never fade Had to take our cat in for an emergency vet visit and being able to sit down and get coffee, pie, and fries is such a blessing

When Grammy-winning musician Rhiannon Giddens begins playing “Old Corn Liquor,” a traditional Black American folk tune, acclaimed Chinese pipa virtuoso Wu Man recognizes similarities to Chinese pentatonic music and spontaneously joins in. The joy on their faces says it all.

happy sickos day to all who celebrate

Got a breakfast monstrosity this morning Ordered a vegan egg and cheese with vegan sausage and got… a bacon egg and cheese with added vegan sausage Like I ate it and it was good, but how did no one look at that order and think “are we sure that’s what he said”

willpower finally broke down and I played some WoW Forever beta tonight

this plus the 70 year olds who would not stop talking at full volume absolutely insane movie going experience, I guess people have not been exaggerating about people completely forgetting how to behave in public after COVID. feel like we got lucky til now!

what a fantastic all-timer thread on this phenomena and the psychology behind it I think about this all the time and not understanding this is the difference between successful liminal horror, and just horrorslop. liminal horror is about the baked-in hostility of public spaces we millenials saw die

season's changing

since i am working on my first new alt movie posters in *quite* a while, thought i'd share a selection of my favs from over the years ! title and description in alt text all of them are ink on claybord/scratchboard

@devonrubinart.bsky.social playing the WoW Forever beta 10 feet away from me is going to make resisting playing for 7 weeks so difficult

I do not have the time to play it, but it is so hard to resist buying into the beta for Warcraft Forever

It's funny, I was considering checking out Grand Theft Auto for the first time ever this year with GTAVI But then Blizzard decided to release the game I've wanted for like over a decade, so guess maybe I'll wait for GTAVII

Having a lot of fun with Blood of the Dawnwalker but damn, but by the end of this game my character will single handedly have made boars and wolves extinct in this region. They attack you constantly!

Classic+ is the only way I would have ever come back to World of Warcraft again, damn it they got me IN SEVEN WEEKS, INSANE

i try to brighten my friends’ days by sharing good news whenever i see it, but this now being the third time i’ve seen very positive climate news lately, i’m gonna get a lil mean: climate doomerism is misinformation and spreading it, even just in jest, is antithetical to the values you espouse.

I always love the NPCs in Zelda games, and the new Ocarina of Time remake trailer from the week showed a great guy strutting round town! Can’t wait to play :)

Since Zelda is trending, a friendly reminder how CRAZY good Katsuya Terada is. (1/3)

Comparing “blogging” to “AI Slop” is the type of take that emerges from being obsessed with how people talk about things instead of being interested in what things are.

Man I would *love* to have something like this in my area. We've got a couple great game shops which do offer space to play, but not really like this Jealous of the folks in Twin Cities!

Incredibly happy to report that the great @explorersdesign.bsky.social agreed to be the first person to share their collection on Shelfie: www.shelfie.email/p/001-clayton

Blood of the Dawnwalker has really got its claws in me It’s got the bones of the Witcher games, but it’s really the time mechanics that put it over the top. Not having infinite time to do every single request people have for you just completely changes how you interact with the narrative, it rules

New blog post up where I talk about what might be my next TTRPG side project: hacking Mothership so it runs like a 2000's sci-fi show

Anyone got a recommendation for TV that isn't fucking spying on me, cause I guess we've been spied on for years. This world is so cursed man

Saw our first Tesla cab today. It was on the freeway, which they are legally not allowed to do, so it seems like everything is going great

not out of the woods yet, but biscuit is breathing much better than yesterday, and the cardiologist says her condition should be treatable. I am BEYOND relieved now the bad news: this has been hellaciously expensive. if you can help in any way, it'd be massively appreciated

Has anyone written about what it says about our cultural relationship with meat that cozy farming games, like Stardew Valley and Fields of Mistria, feature worlds that are fully pescatarian

The first episode of season two of Rascal Reading Club is out and we're off to a great start. We're talking about setting in Blades in the Dark and it's already got me thinking about games in new ways. 🧵⬇️ www.rascal.news/reading-club...

An Elf Barbarian - Haven't had a lot of time to draw just for fun lately, but had enough time to get this one done! #dnd #fantasyart

I finally cancelled a premium Youtube subscription after putting it off for a while and oh my god, I can feel my neurons smoothing over with some of these mobile ads

*Mr Beast voice* I HELPED THIS WOMAN TURN A ROOM FULL OF STRAW INTO GOLD USING ONLY A SPINNING WHEEL! IF SHE CAN'T GUESS MY NAME IN THREE DAYS, I'M TAKING HER BABY!

we are the screams of the cats you've already fed dinner

Without saying your age, what is your favorite movie that came out when you were 20 years old?

This looks sick as hell

Applications for the Mothership #Jump-9 Writers Grant are now open. Deadline is September 30. www.tuesdayknightgames.com/pages/mother...

My favorite point: Don't let a well thought out reply on Discord just live on Discord. So here's my reply to @proton31.bsky.social's post Second Wave Solarpunk

I wrote a manifesto. It's mostly for me, but maybe it can be for you too! seraphim-seraphina.itch.io/my-blog/devl...
