Re: How do you become a games writer
Hey Justin! You know Gary? Small world! He's a good fella! Also, I can second what Gary said--tabletop or pen-and-paper RPGs is where a large chunk of the game writers I know seem to have come from. In particular the level of lore depth --AND-- breadth seems to translate from that industry to this one...especially for… -
Re: Elite on kickstarter
obsidian at least had the decency to have a video, which puts them at the position where double-fine was at: people can decide depending on what they think of the company and previous titles. I think it's the belief that kickstarter has to net you a GOOD game, I haven't been under any illusion that obsidian will create a… -
Re: Early-Late 2000s CGI/Game textures
Heh, that's funny. I was there when the deep graphics were written. In the early 2000s GPUs didn't have enough VRAM for baked normal maps, and didn't have enough zoomies to run more than 1 simple shader calculation per pixel. When you did see normal maps, it was only as tiny tileable detail normal maps that would help sell… -

Re: I just got my first pay cheque
Aha, I haven't had money for such a long time... I am like I CAN JUSTIFY A DEACTIVATED RPG RIGHT? REFERENCE RIGHT? Although my brother made fun of me because the first things I bought were new underwear, new shirts and a toothbrush. Think I am getting old/boring/sensible... although that RPG still sounds like a good idea. -
Re: Community Made MMORPG
right..., get a shitton of mathematicians to cure aids. Pong the rpg. Seriously, earn your title as a game designer, prove that you're able to bring your knowledge about rpg into something and make something entirely new. Take a look at any famous game designer out there, and you'll notice that they all started small, and… -
Fontes
Well, hey there. I began to model an anime-fantasy styled character of mine, based on myself (who never thought of doing that nowadays...?). It's the guy you see on my avatar, and I posted that very same low-poly character on the low-poly chars topic, a couple of days ago. Now I've decided to just do a more complex version… -
Re: Wasteland 2 kickstarter is a go!
I went ahead and backed it because I love oldschool RPGs, and new ones are awesome! It's already at nearly half the goal and its been one day! Good for them - this will be cool. On the subject, what are some other oldschool RPG style games in recent years? Spiderweb has the Avodon/Geneforge but those are a bit...rough on… -
Re: Game Length vs Looks
I think of it this way, if a movie sets you back $20 for 2hr of entertainment then a game thats $60 should at least give you 6hr. I love good looking games, but i play them as an artists so a 6hr game to me is a 18hr game because i do stop to smell the roses. I also love a good RTS or RPG but don't expect me to ever finish…
