Only been playing No Man’s Sky for a few months now and I already fully understand why this meme is a thing in the community
A drawing of a man bursting into a room with a young kid cowering from him. The face of the man is covered by the Hello Games logo. The man is yelling “It’s free update time!” with image of the No Man’s Sky promo graphic in his hand. The boy is poorly edited to look like he’s holding a realistic wallet with money in it while yelling “No, Sean! No! I have money!”

Nothing saddens me more than seeing an interesting concept for a game on Steam and then scrolling down to see they use Generative AI.

Why?! Just don’t! There are countless reasons why you shouldn’t!

Oh potatoes and molasses! 🍂🎃

It’s that time of year again! Alongside your annual rewatch of OVER THE GARDEN WALL, you should watch BEYOND THE BROOK. It’s the Over the Garden Wall inspired TTRPG actual play I produced with some incredible talent.

Check it out!: youtube.com/playlist?lis...
A vignetted image of a dimly lit forest trail with a few rays of sunlight making it through the canopy in a painterly style. In the center stand 5 characters, a young White girl with ginger hair dressed up as a witch, a young adult person who seems to be made of orange and purple honey, a scruffy young adult with tanned skin and brown wolf ears and a tail, a grey translucent young kid who seems to be made of wind and smoke, and a Black young adult woman in a dress made of leaves and flowers with a fox laying by her side. On the right-hand side, cloaked in and made of shadow is The Fiend, watching the kids with glowing white eyes. The image reads “Beyond the Brook"

Gonna slightly cheat here. I still often think about the player character’s of @havanarama.bsky.social’s Strixhaven campaign, Higher Education. Everyone’s character was so much fun to watch and play off of, and Vana made the world so fun and alive. And the CHARACTER ART 😍 (by @eggqqe.bsky.social)
A promo graphic for the TTRPG actual play Higher Education. Top center is the official Higher Education logo which is made to look like an antique book cover, surrounded by pink stylized roses, gilded lines, a pink downturned sliver moon with stars falling out of it, and a small pink book laying open beneath the title. The player's characters are lined up across the center of the image, from left to right: Stag, a Chinese goliath barbarian with warm, medium beige skin, wielding a giant axe that doubles as a guitar. Ecstasy, a red Dragonborn-tiefling rogue/ranger gilded in gold. Cirro, a Black faerie with a warm complexion, translucent teal wings, and a short blue bob. Baru, a Black gorgon inventor with black and purple snakes for hair. Jaisha, a Pakistani Earth Genasi with dark brown skin and blue crystalline vitiligo, and long sea foam green hair.

Have you caught up on SACRED MACHINATIONS? ⚙️

Sometimes, protagonists hit the ground running. Other times, they just… hit the ground—.

A little late and off-schedule (sorry), but SACRED MACHINATIONS Day is upon us once again! ⚙️

Episode 4 is live. A gargantuan monster approaches, and our squad of mech pilots is but ants in its presence...

At the bottom of the poster is the logo for SACRED MACHINATIONS. The logo reads “Sacred Machinations” in a stylized serif font with a powder blue blow around it. “Sacred” is powder blue while “Machinations” is white. White geometric designs glow behind the words, alongside black silhouettes of mechanical, mech-inspired figures. The other character is a well-built Korean person in brown patched-up overalls and a straw hat. Their hands are covered in bandages. One of the characters has deep brown skin, long wavy brown hair in a messy bun, and a lean muscular build. They're wearing a black crop top with orange suspenders and a green baggy jumpsuit tied around their waist. Another character is Black with dark skin, short but powerfully built, clearly bionic with EMP wiring along their face and red lights under the corner of their eyes. They are in a white and grey leotard with an orange scarf. The other character is a Chinese person with light brown skin, short black hair with shaved sides and gelled professionally, though a little messily. She has a slender build and is in a black and crimson hanfu with white lab coat over it with a cigarette in mouth. The other character is an elderly White person a scar across their face, and a weathered cybernetic arm, in a well-worn purple tracksuit jacket over rusting pilot armour.

Episode 4 of SACRED MACHINATIONS is gonna be a day late!

Our Sacred Editor, @superdillin.bsky.social, is cooking and has ideas for the sound design, and one should never rush perfection or their work 🙌🏾

It’ll be worth the wait, trust me 👀

Wait. Didn’t all of these characters start off with a bright future and then end up corrupted/on the wrong path—?

Episode 2 is out everywhere pods are cast!

The group of four becomes a group of five as they venture deeper into the untamed wilds beyond the city walls in search of the source of a strange signal. What could go wrong? 😅

We’re working on getting it to you later today or early tomorrow! In the meantime, listen to episode 1 if you haven’t already. If you have, leave a review! 5 star reviews help podcasts a ton! 💖

Mutation through devouring.

Dr. Zhong is a renowned xenogeneticist for the Resistance (and others), but more than that, she’s…

…HUNGRY.
