Noticed this little guy in the clip that showed enemy concept art. Really cool to see what the un-mutated ones look like in the modern concept.

Yeah, I think the regulatory capture angle is spot on. They know that they can’t compete against more efficient small scale models for actually useful tasks, so they have to regulate them out of existence.

Yeah, as far as I know the only way to get there in less than a thousand years involves nukes.

Keighley's disinterest in excluding AI trailers really devalues the whole thing. These events are rarely to my taste, but the experience of watching "ONL" was one of watching slop. Even non-AI games are tainted by the association — we have to second-guess, every time.

Here's another #marathon themed rendering. This time there is a bit more molten salt than usual. This image was made in Blender using assets made by me, with the exception of the small compiler sprite that I dropped in the background. That came from the M2 Xbox Port. No generative "AI" used at all

The Security Officer from Marathon 1 hanging onto a rope above a glowing pool of molten fluid. In the other hand is a rifle, pointing at something off-screen. Far in the background is a S'pht compiler.

The Image is styled to look like security footage. It is dated July third, 2794. The time is 19 hours and 41 minutes

About 10% of the money we make on @bloodwork.show is held hostage by Apple every month. If you want to be sure your money fully goes to the creators you support, changing your billing from iOS to the web version of Patreon ensure that happens.

As someone who loved it more as it went on, it has a quality to its writing and direction that I haven’t seen in *any* other shows. I can’t quite articulate it, but her other work has the same feel.

I was so happy when I first saw he had logs in-game. I always liked the idea that he was just one of the Bobs that stood too close to a simulacrum.

Haven’t tried dire marsh duos yet, but we loved perimeter duos. We got in some really fun fights and the UESC are more threatening when you only have two runners.

Discovering that not everyone sees static when they close their eyes or look at dark objects has been mind blowing. I have other symptoms of the syndrome, including tinnitus, light sensitivity and migraines. It's apparently more common in artists. www.youtube.com/watch?v=914J...

Thanks. I made a pair for my dad and me because he got me into the games when I was young :)

Here’s some of the pieces I cast recently, in various states of completion. Upper left is the actual print of one of the ferns that didn’t get used. Lower right is a sterling silver snake, though with the price of silver going crazy I probably won’t be making as many silver things for a while.

tacticus359.bsky.social @tacticus359.bsky.social · 08/03/2026

One thing that was super obvious and surprised me anyway: Good castable 3d resin works waaay better than the cheap stuff. Will soon post some nice little bronze dragonflies and fern pendants that came out very well.

tacticus359.bsky.social @tacticus359.bsky.social · 08/03/2026

Of course our group also likes it a lot. It actually ties in pretty well with the old games, surprisingly enough.

010

tacticus359.bsky.social @tacticus359.bsky.social · 08/03/2026

Strange. Of the people I’ve interacted with, the people who like it the most are Tarkov and Hunt players. I’m the only one in my group that played much Destiny. We are all long time Marathon trilogy players though, so maybe we aren’t a good sample.

tacticus359.bsky.social @tacticus359.bsky.social · 02/03/2026

Thanks for the chance to play, we had an incredible set of runs this afternoon!

tacticus359.bsky.social @tacticus359.bsky.social · 08/02/2026

I’ve played enough Marathon to know this. Always aim at the floor in front of them, no time for them to dodge that.

tacticus359.bsky.social @tacticus359.bsky.social · 19/01/2026

Latter option, they have a good number of voice logs and narrative driven objectives in the game. Also, the original trilogy gives them a lot of established story to work with.

I remember seeing the giant hologram girl in blade runner 2049 and thinking “That might be overselling the point”. Anyone that would create and market something like that is a twisted parody of human consciousness.

Whenever you post “this scene fucked me up” I know I’m about to get hit with something extremely jarring.

A 3d interpretation of something from the level "Try Again". You discover a pair of vents leading into the guts of the coolant channel system. If you are willing to trudge through the molten salt, you may find a much needed shield station and access to the local teleport pads.

I think the environmental impact is often (incorrectly) framed as a problem that can be mitigated with better technology. People give more emotional weight to the copyright issue because it is more apparently integral to the entire process, and can’t be changed.

Man, your project’s visuals has gotten super cool in the last month. I feel compelled to return to the shader mines, and develop my stylized rendering skills more fully. I abandoned game dev many years ago to pursue additive manufacturing in jewelry design. But I still hear the siren song.

More #marathon art blending the new style with the OG Trilogy.
