Wonkers

All my coding efforts have been focusing on refactoring and tidying it up, as it's beginning to get unwieldly. But here - Winter is coming (it's already here)

@memeslich Not really. I miss playing RPGs with my friends

Does anyone miss playing Dungeons & Dragons?

@BrettWArmstrong hashtag soon

@randomcodingdud When can I play?

Finally added boats and fishermen! ...oh....and other captains!!!

@fandompulse Works for me

Nathan Fillion explains why the animated series is set between the TV show and Serenity. "You can’t bring back Firefly without bringing back all of Firefly. We toyed with the idea of spending some time in the show after the events of Serenity, and I honestly have no interest. I think Serenity was our wonderful farewell to what was an incredible opportunity. Had we only had one more chance to do something, that was it, and it was beautiful. I can’t compete with that. But what I can do is go back in time, bring the gang back together, and give people what they want, which is more Firefly. After Serenity, it’s not the same. I didn’t want to do this without my buddy Alan. And you know that’s a reason why animation is key, because Ron Glass is no longer with us. I like to think, in my heart of hearts, that this is something that he would have wanted." Is this the right thinking?

@karomancer Awww I’m officially deemed uncool. Insert sad face

Hm the problem with my idea of doing a podcast through X Spaces...is that most of the cool people I want to chat with don't use X 🤣 Time to Zoom it up...or maybe even do video. Video is so much more work though!

@nugbonuggs @Nobleshield Irk. I really disliked the storyteller wave. The drama… and drama school dropouts/wannabes. I do like character role play though over dungeon/wilderness bashing

@Nobleshield Find the right old school dm or gm and you can still experience it. We are all the old wizard looking white haired dudes. The storyteller system kind of screwed up the scene for awhile making everyone think story trumps pc free will. Hint the PC's are the story.

The way many people online describe "old-school play" with TTRPGs makes it sound like the most boring nonsense, like a worse implementation of Diablo. If I want dungeon hack-and-slash today, a video game does it better.

@gingerbeardman clunky! I love it.

@randomcodingdud How do you think the interface holds up?

@eroc0303 @BlackDragonCan Awesome. Living the dream. (non sarcastically) Twitter D&D space has been annoying me. Everyone seems so rigid. bugs me. I was more into other systems anyway. They dont provoke such discourses for some reason!

@randomcodingdud @BlackDragonCan Exactly. I'm good! You? I have been posting a lot of items in the Dungeons & Dragons community here on X

How to succinctly put the difference between story focused gaming and sandbox style gaming? Mercer gives the example of wanting the party to touch an item and have a vision, so if they avoid the encounter he would have them feel a tugging to draw them back in. That's it

@KenneyNL What part of game dev. Art, design, production, engineering

If someone came up to you and say they'd be interested in learning about #gamedev, what resource would you point them to?

@_trish_xD Using eastl:: over std::

i used to roll my eyes whenever senior devs said "just use the standard library." i was wrong. they were right. so much third-party stuff is genuinely unnecessary.

@eroc0303 @BlackDragonCan This. Why make it that it has to be touched. That’s just risking being missed. Anyway. How ya doin

@BlackDragonCan The vision that "needs" to be seen happens when they enter the chamber. I don't make the characters do anything. I certainly don't expect them to do something; that never works! 😆 🤷🏻‍♂️ old-school tabletop AD&D D&D

@KevinLamb74 She’s as tall as an elf. Pretty

@Hoopss It’s in my closet

Were you old enough to see one of these in real life?

@woke8yearold Bait. Dont fall for it my Gen X brothers and sisters

The age gap on this war is really something. Millennials and Gen Z hate it. Completely. Boomers and their evil henchmen Gen X love it because they are fucked in the head

@CrazyRetroGame1 It’s due

I really should make another game ? No ? #indiedev

@disco___cat Only coz I was mostly a teen with no responsibilities. But I had no money and that sucked. Had a recession and jobs were hard to come by. So… not really. Great memories though

the 90s really was the best decade wasn't it and it's not even close.

@francryptofit My dad did. Was with her until he passed away. It was his only successful marriage (number 3)

Guys: Would you date a woman 15 years younger than you?

@bluewmist Most.

What is the highest-paying job that doesn't require a college degree?

@ramierah_ You poor bastard. Could be worse.

i just got some devastating news... i'm brittish???

Can't we all just live in peace?
