FUN FACT: I begged Sarah to remove some of my swearing when I realized, to my horror, that my family might listen to this. (Thank you, Sarah.)
Should also mention that the extended cut (2hr) Tent Talk is available on Patreon, free to tier members. We go into depth about crafting narrative, stories from our careers and more about a brand new video game that may or may not exist.
Mostly we just laugh a lot.

Here's another 1.5 episode of the Concierge audio drama, PLUS a round table talk with people from North Mist (including myself) on the podcast, and games in general.
"What if I want even more of your rambling." Good (?) news: there's a longer cut on NM's Patreon.

I'm really sad for the Dragon Age Veilguard voice actors who never got to speak about their work because EA never signed the SAG AFTRA contract protecting their talent from AI. They got to do one interview and that's it. Depressing.

I think I've answered everything people sent me, so I'll deactivate this account tonight. Sorry to make a big deal of this, just want people to know I'm going voluntarily, it's not some weird hack, etc.
And thank you for all your kind comments! They meant the world.

Saw another misconception I wanted to clear up - I saw someone attribute Calpernia and Samson's quests in DAI to me. Not so! Those fine quests and characters were written by @joberry.bsky.social .

Congrats to Mike and the team on the game's launch! Climbing everything sounds neat.
Eternal Strands! Where you can:
-Climb everything, including huge foes so you can stab them
-TK, Burn and freeze (including the huge foes, limb by limb)
-Quest with fully-voiced characters with personal plots
-Craft suits of armor and weapons
-Explore and uncover just so much lore.

@ginkys.bsky.social has created a Spotify list of the music I listened to when writing Emmrich and the Watchers! Almost everything's on there. Thank you Ginkys.
(FYI: Not everything I listened to matches the MW vibe, sometimes it was just a song that got stuck in my head for a few weeks.)

this is the sneakiest, weirdest way to announce layoffs so far.
The amount of mental gymnastic to avoid saying the word and spin the thing into a positive-sounding announcement is mind-blowingly sad...

I think I've gotten to most people’s questions, and I promised I'd talk about influences on Emmrich and the Mourn Watch before wrapping this up. So here we go!
It took me while to figure out Emmrich's character voice. I'm happy with where I landed, but he was a tough one. A few books helped me out.

@timethehobo.bsky.social Thank you so much for the nice drawing of Emmrich in the package! I love it, he looks so debonair and Manfred's such a cutie.
(And thank you for the cards/extra Manfred stickers. The extra stickers will go to good homes!)

Hey everyone, I'd like to correct a misassumption I've seen floating around. I saw a few people who saw my name attached to the codex system, and assumed I wrote the bulk of codex entries. That's not true at ALL.
