the problem about having a lot of interests & a lot of projects is that there are only 24 hours in a day and time moves so damn fast

this one is especially egregious

A single panel comic hand drawn illustration of Barret Wallace from FF7 gesturing disgustedly to a screenshot from nvidia's atrocious DLSS 5 slop that leaked, showing a photo of what was once Cloud Strife from Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, but is now a yassified Al model standing in a flatly lit Instagram environment. Barret's text box reads "We're killin' the planet for THIS shit?"

I think it's really hard to make friends as an adult. It's really hard to make new friends as an adult who you can talk about silly things with and laugh about every day like you did when you were a student. I myself am an introverted person. Sometimes I feel very lonely.

when we mourn le guin, we mourn one of our greatest writers & thinkers. but we also mourn one of our all-time greatest haters

All you do is take all the sex out, and use little short words, and little dumb ideas, and don't be too scary, and be sure there's a happy ending. Right? Nothing to it. Write down. Right on.

If you do all that, you might even write Jonathan Livingston Seagull and make twenty billion dollars and have every adult in America reading your book.

But you won't have every kid in America reading your book. They will look at it, and they will see straight through it, with their clear, cold, beady little eyes, and they will put it down, and they will go away. Kids will devour vast amounts of garbage (and it is good for them) but they are not like adults: they have not yet learned to eat plastic.

music is not mystical or arcanistic, its an art that can be learned and dissected. jeremy soule was not a good man and while his music was great, it doesnt make him any more than his fellow man. too many people in the tes community treat him like an untouchable god

BenTheDuelist @bentheduelist.bsky.social · 13/04/2026

the music that plays when nothing is happening is the most important music in your game. it's on for hours. it becomes the world itself

BenTheDuelist @bentheduelist.bsky.social · 10/04/2026

Having a strong regional identity for different regions and peoples of a game, probably even more than having it match the biome. If the music for various cities and places could be swapped without anyone noticing, maybe it should be more distinctive, weird or some defining factor

worldbuilding is so overrated. if a story has great characters and character arcs, i'll take the shittiest worldbuilding you can give me. idgaf about lore if it doesn't make me care about your characters

BenTheDuelist @bentheduelist.bsky.social · 23/03/2026

i love worldbuilding and this is so real. way too much happening in the background and an emotionally unmoving story will kill a story no matter how realistically detailed the planet is, or how scientifically systematic the magic system is

BenTheDuelist @bentheduelist.bsky.social · 23/03/2026

more fantasy music should borrow from jazz, not for complexity,nor in a surface-level way, but because theres colors in jazz and the blues that just havent been explored yet by rpgs

with the advent of open world games, there was a reversal where the world was huge, but everything in it is so literal it doesnt strike the imagination as much

BenTheDuelist @bentheduelist.bsky.social · 15/03/2026

one of the miracles of old games is how little they told you and how big that became in your mind a few notes of music, some pixels of a foggy coastline, and your imagination was doing most of the worldbuilding

early 3D rpg music really said “you are alone in a world that barely renders correctly” and somehow that hit the same a full orchestra
