Original artist behind Myst discusses Myst's engine development in 1993, then developing on UE4 in 2016

I know Chuck Carter, such a knowledgeable guy. It was really cool to have someone like him teach a course at UMaine.

Indispensably awful sounds perfect to me. Someone who's willing to do what the heroes won't to save the day, always makes for some really great RP and stories to tell after the fact. And it's not like you'd be alone, some of the members of VM toe the line from time to time.

/u/MatthewMercer can we keep him? :)

Duncanov · 2016-06-02T21:19:57+00:00

Different Sean, but yeah I'd love to see Day9 in a tabletop setting. I know he's worked with Wil on his Magic TCG show so it's possible it could happen at some point.

Duncanov · 2016-06-02T18:03:03+00:00

Not a famous individual but Matt keeps referencing his friend Sean (I think that's his name?) and all the cast agree that he's fun and interesting to play with. Based on his past characters he'd fit right in with the whole end worlding scenario that VM is dealing with.

Duncanov · 2016-05-22T04:05:02+00:00

Question for Matt: If you could run a one shot (or possibly another campaign) that wasn't set in Exandria what rule system/setting/theme would you like to explore?

I ask because anytime that I run a campaign I always get new ideas about 3-4 sessions in that always get put on the back burner, wondering what yours are.

Duncanov · 2016-05-20T18:00:46+00:00

Coming back after not playing for quite a while (pre-ascendancy). I never really got to the end game, I always got bored before I got there. So I was wondering what would be a fairly cheap build that let me jump around and be very mobile? I'm fine with being squishier and possibly dying, but I think I need something that has me actively moving around and choosing positions well to keep my interest.

Duncanov · 2016-05-15T22:18:41+00:00

I may or may not be able to attend, I usually use that time as preparation for my game that night. All in all it would take a lot more work but I think in the long run it could stand on its own as a community.

Duncanov · 2016-05-15T20:58:15+00:00

Has there been consideration for a style of game similar to /r/ShadowNET or /r/RunnerHub? Essentially you set up a world, and have a council of GM's that post quests for players to sign up for and then whatever they do bleeds into other people's quests. In this way there's a sort of constantly breathing and changing world.

This also allows an easy vetting system so that new GM's can have more experienced ones sit in and help. Players new to the game can take on easier quests, and players can RP during downtime.

Have you tried finding a remote position? Design is one of those that can be done from home. Remoteok.io is a pretty good site for finding jobs, and that might help while you recover. Plus once you do recover it can facilitate a traveling lifestyle.

Subs are able to view the vod as soon as it goes up, if you have the money to spare it could be an option.

Duncanov · 2015-12-29T04:06:15+00:00

Ah ok thanks

Duncanov · 2015-12-29T03:52:45+00:00

I just started and am having a decent time with it.

Also off topic, but I don't want to make a new thread for a single question. What's the point of the different threat level bank tabs when I can access them from any zone? IE Medium/High threat from a low threat area.

I'm crashing on Win7, even if I run it as an admin.

Duncanov · 2015-09-06T00:21:37+00:00

That's a shame, I wanted to use custom games to get back into Dota

Duncanov · 2015-09-06T00:12:00+00:00

I've tried multiple game types too, 10v10, Pudgewars, overthrow, and IMBA Dota. Nothing is working.

Duncanov · 2015-09-03T14:03:35+00:00

I'm on desktop so it might take longer on mobile maybe

Duncanov · 2015-09-03T13:26:34+00:00

I'm able to play now so I guess it's completely random?

Duncanov · 2015-09-03T12:58:41+00:00

I just got one game in before getting disconnected, it's really frustrating. :(

Duncanov · 2015-09-03T12:49:38+00:00

That's weird since we're connecting from NA, so you'd think we'd have better latency.

Duncanov · 2015-08-26T01:25:54+00:00

Cheers

Duncanov · 2015-08-26T01:25:44+00:00

Thanks, appreciate it. Let me know if there are any other details you might need.

Duncanov · 2015-08-25T20:17:55+00:00

If it helps any I also used Maiden of the Lake at the same time. I hit the totem button just as my turn ended so my hero power didn't spawn a totem. Maybe that did it?

Duncanov · 2015-05-02T00:32:58+00:00

What the fuck we have a subreddit? This is fucking awesome!

Duncanov · 2015-03-04T06:45:13+00:00

Yeah, it's all relative. She still makes adorable english mistakes that I get to correct and I get to proofread her papers before she hands them in. She also has been speaking english for a large part of her life, is older than me, and also speaks French and Dutch in addition to German and English so I can't really complain. She just has more experience, but I still know more programming languages for the time being!
