I like how the Lord of the Rings ends with everyone just fucking off and sailing away to a place where this bullshit doesn’t happen

Today, I've been poking around Peril. Y'know how Quake Brutalist Jam 3 is the biggest Quake community project? Peril, mostly the work of one person, is even bigger.

A colossal time-traveling adventure campaign across some of the biggest spaces ever made in the engine.

"just don't use Al" is a luxury position. when people moralize choices made under scarcity, they're pretending the menu is the same for everyone. it fucking isn't.

I haven't been doodling any small games for at least a year but today I tried something: yup, making an Ultima clone is easier than making a Might and Magic clone. Theoretically.

Now, the mage requires extra work on my part, because mixing reagents is super annoying. There's a blind merchant and you need to count down each gold, you don't need to pay the right amount. But I do it gladly every time, feels wrong not to

I failed "Sacrifice" in all questions. I'm a coward. Fiction writing is semi-honest. It's non-confrontational. And yeah I think I'm a honest type but I tend to bend the truth so my honesty doesn't cause harm. Ultima made me reflect on cowardice.

My starting virtue (class) based on the quiz in Ultima IV was Honesty so I started as a mage. I guess I do value honesty above all the others, huh, but at the same time I have a really strange relationship with honesty.

ah sok tényező miatt kihagyom inkább, én még átszállok onnan is, gyerek jön / nem jön, tudnak-e jönni elém / nem, stb és ha 1-2 óra késés van kb annyit utazok mint amennyit ott tudok lenni, bah

inkább kiveszek pár szabit egy hosszú hétvégéhez (of course a márc 15 vasárnapra esik)

Though, this is a pilgrimage towards the virtues and it's kinda fitting that the journey is obtuse. Self-reflection is always messy. It's okay to be lost.
