  6. Let’s All Love Serana – Skyrim’s Half-Baked Romances

    One of Bethesda’s flagship games isn’t exactly renowned for its writing around being in love; it’s a flaw which shadows its most complex character…

  11. (4/6) Time passes. A teammate messages me about casting and says, "Hey, what do you think of Jeffrey Combs for this part?" What!? Did I manifest this? Am I the god-monster-boy from The Twilight Zone? #DuneAwakening #JeffreyCombs #GameWriting #TwilightZone

  12. (6/6) Looking over the Zayn dialogue, he said it gave him Milton Dammers vibes. Then we got to it. He was lovely to work with. #DuneAwakening #JeffreyCombs #GameWriting

  13. (5/6) The recording session was awesome. I allowed myself a little bit of geeking out at the top of it, particularly over the audio of Mr. Combs's one-man show as Edgar Allan Poe. He was surprised and delighted I'd listened to it. #DuneAwakening #JeffreyCombs #GameWriting #EdgarAllanPoe

  14. (2/6) I wrote the Twisted Mentat character Zayn De Witte. When I write a character, I often think of some actor or character as a starting point. It's not something I tell the eventual voice actor, just a springboard to develop a voice as I write. #DuneAwakening #JeffreyCombs #GameWriting

  15. (1/6) One of the cooler things I've done while writing for Dune: Awakening, is get to work in the recording booth with the Re-Animator himself, Jeffrey Combs. The whole situation manifested strangely. #DuneAwakening #JeffreyCombs #GameWriting

  16. I love building things in inkle's ink, I love interactive fiction, and I love game cities. Also, I do love teaching my *Create An Interactive City In Text using ink* course.

  21. @tracefree For the last few years I've been feeling that every game must seriously explain why its main character is killing people on a regular basis as part of their typical activities.

    Nothing wrong with characters who end up killing someone, but that should be a major plot point in the overall narrative every time. If that's something that regular people in this word just do, I want to see the game acknowledge how fucked up its world is.

  22. Nachdem ich am Donnerstag spontan bei Writing_Bull im Stream zu Gast war, gibt es nun auch den Mitschnitt auf Youtube zum Nachschauen. Wir haben über meine Arbeit an #PioneersOfPagonia gesprochen und ich hab ein bisschen aus dem Nähkästchen geplaudert. 🙂

    Viel Spaß!

  27. It’s already the middle of NaNoWriMo, and I’m curious what you’re working on! I spent two NaNoWriMos writing the 100K+ words that are in Terranova (wow, that’s a lot!). It was the first big project that I took on, and I can't tell you how many rounds of editing I went through. It's one of my most edited works because I was so concerned about getting it right.

  28. Excited to start writing my next Twine game 🎉 First draft of the opening passage, so forgive any typos, repetitive worlds and other imperfections.

  29. CW: Trump & Halo, game writing

    I am sorry for the Halo devs who are now upset about Trump and ICE using their game for fascist propaganda— sorry, not surprised. This is a good example of why you must be vigilant as a game writer about your game fantasy. Your political views are not a safeguard. You can be against fascism, but if you keep writing military games where guns are cool, you mess up. Even as a satire! Guns will stay cool, ironically or not. #GameWriting #NarrativeDesign

  30. What happens when a few students in 1997 set out to build their own sci-fi game - and end up creating one of the most unique multiplayer text games ever made? 🚀

    In this interview, lead developer Morwen talks about Cryosphere's origins, design decisions, and where the game is headed next.

  33. I fell off the face of the earth again (not really, just the social media plane 😁). In the meantime, I wrote my second tiny Twine #solarpunk game. Interactive fiction that I didn't even try to make look good because I'm only learning about the narrative aspect of game development.

  34. How many twists does the story of Final Fantasy 10 have?!

    I think it's like a dozen. And they are all good!
    They have a setup, they have foreshadowing, they make thematic sense for the overall story, and they have meaningful impact on the plot.

    Other games are famous for having one big twist, and most of these fail to check these four marks.
