If you're looking for a decent RPG that isn't super long, look into a game called The Thaumaturge. Top down rpg set in 1905 Poland. The dialog isn't the greatest, or the Voice Acting, but the story isn't bad.

@quellist1.bsky.social I love your Cyberpunk/Sci-Fi work, but the dark fantasy series has managed to draw me in. Only other series that had me was the Elric Saga and the New Sun Series by Gene Wolfe.

@quellist1.bsky.social Your fantasy series is helping me conceptualize some ideas I've had with my own D&D/Daggerheart setting that I was struggling to put down on paper in some intelligible fashion.

Okay, I just got to the part where Ringil says "We make our stand right fucking here" monolog. It was damn brilliant. I actually had goose bumps.

@quellist1.bsky.social I have a question for you sir. Have you ever thought about collaborating with a game company to develop a Table Top RPG setting? Steel Remains world sounds interesting to explore.

I really enjoyed your Cyberpunk and Sci-Fi stuff, but I'm really starting to dig your dark fantasy material. I'm about half way through Steel Remains.

I'm not sure if you're a Mafia (the game) series fan. If so, the 4th one is good. It's nothing but story, no side quests, sadly. So, there are not a lot of chances to explore the area. Hopefully the DLC will allow for further exploration of the beautiful landscape.

sure if you're into podcasts any. But if so, there is podcast I follow called Lions Lead by Donkeys. It's on Spotify and a lot of their episodes are free. It's focuses on battles and events that lead to some strange or horrific outcomes. It's not bad.

Shit you hear during a podcast:

"The CIA had to have Jude Law shave his head because he was turning too many of the 1% bisexual."

Looking to reconnect with my Faith, as well as meeting the Ummah of my new area in Bolingbrook. Also, need to look into learning Arabic. Let's see where everything goes...

Nice Altered Carbon reference in Market Forces.

On my drive home from work, I had the thought of "It would be cool if someone produced a Cyberpunk Genre anthology podcast."

Now, I wonder if that is even a thing.

I'm happy that Syria has found its freedom. I honestly hope they are able to make something great from this all. Sending positive vibes and prayers to Allah that it's a fresh start for them.

I've begun to re-work my species for my D&D campaign setting. Re-naming Elves to Fae, giving them names outside of Pale Elves/Wyld Elves/Bright Elves. Once I finish the Fae, I'll move onto the next group, who I'll probably rename as the a whole as the 'Dreamless.'

I know a lot of people are up in arms about AI, but it's been super helpful to me and my projects. I've been working alone, and I'm not great on narrative work. So, writing up something, then handing it to an AI to help me clean it up and aid in giving a narrative feel has been beneficial to me.

Two projects I'm working on slowly:

1: My D&D campaign setting
2: A VtM 5th edition Ashirra sect history and details.

For the moment I set the Ashirra project aside to focus on my D&D stuff, though, I do plan on picking it up again soon. Maybe, one day, I'll be able to get it published.
