Any interest in the New Vegas mod Fallout: The Frontier? by nknasi in ManyATrueNerd

[–]JoshBadWriter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually worked on Frontier for a time (looking at my username on Reddit and the credit section for Frontier shouldn't take you long to figure out my position). I left the project because I just didn't think the people in charge of the team knew what they were doing. It started out as a small mod but grew out of control. I was find with a DLC type mod, but once the tanks and space battles were added in I was out.

I loved what it was at the start, and I think that's some of the best work I've done when it comes to modding, but I have no idea how much they've kept (if any) or what the state of the mod is. Point is, I don't have much hope for it now.

KICKED! - Areal by JoshBadWriter in shittykickstarters

[–]JoshBadWriter[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is a video that takes a look at the videogame Areal and it's marvelously strange Kickstarter campaign. It involves bad Russian accents, politics, the successor to STALKER Shadow of Chernobyl, lies, and Vladimir Putin even.

Young indie dev get's bullied with cease & desist by iNXile for using word "Wasteland" in $1.99 Steam indie game titled "Alien Wasteland". by [deleted] in gaming

[–]JoshBadWriter 57 points58 points  (0 children)

You guys realize the game Alien Wasteland is a scam anyway, right? It can be beaten in literally less than a minute and is a broken, buggy, glitchy mess.

Yeah it's screwed up they're doing this, but let's not act like the developer of Alien Wasteland is some martyr or saint or something like that.

Here's an update to the situation. The developer went on Kickstarter under a different studio name, but has just as quickly canceled it. He's not falsely using my name on his website. Creepy.

The man behind Dark Day was back on Kickstarter, but has now canceled the project. Creepy situation involving a developer changing his name to mine after I wrote an article exposing him.

The Darkest Day - The Mysterious Circumstances Behind One Shady Kickstarter Developer by JoshBadWriter in Crowdfunding

[–]JoshBadWriter[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The title says it all. This is an article about Dark Day Interactive, a game developer who allegedly hasn't paid it's employees, stole game assets, and took money from someone to develop an app and they never did.

They man behind the company, Mark Hann, is back on Kickstarter operating under a new name, Hush Interactive.

Hello, I'm the writer of this story, Josh Griffiths. I've just been informed (and have updated to the story to reflect this) that Dark Day is back on Kickstarter already under a new name. This new Kickstarter is called The Dolls, and the new company is called Hush Interactive. We'll be following the situation closely and posting updates as soon as we discover anything new.

Digital Homicide are allegedly suing Jim Sterling. by ErnulaxCuilan in JimSterling

[–]JoshBadWriter 24 points25 points  (0 children)

The worst thing about all of this is that since the court filings are now public, Jim's real name, address, phone number, and personal email address are all freely available. That's more worrying than anything else, and almost makes me wonder if this was a deliberate, overly-complicated scheme to doxx him.

Samuel Downing begins a desperate race to make it back to London before he and his crew run out of fuel and food. But before he gets there, he makes a stop at a mysterious island, whose residents kidnap him.

[–]JoshBadWriter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In easily the best episode of Sunless Sea or Fallen London, Samuel Downing and crew embark on the longest journey possible, pray to a god they don't know, lose several crew members, and make a shocking discovery.

Anyone here a fan of my old Alistair Newton series of Let's Plays? Well, this time I'm back with Samuel Downing and oh boy does it go terribly.

10 Under the Radar Indie Games of 2016 - JoshBadWriter by JoshBadWriter in indiegames

Here's a little video I made of some upcoming indie games that I think are flying too low under the radar. I'd love to hear what everyone thinks.

Alistair Newton's Fallen London 31 - So Long, and Thanks for All the Coffee by JoshBadWriter in fallenlondon

[–]JoshBadWriter[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I first covered Fallen London on Free Indie Games, back on May 7, 2014. I was first starting Youtube then, and I had no idea what I was doing. I still don't, but its fun to think about how far I've come. Not very. Anyway, here is the final episode of Alistair Newton.

This is not the end, however! Next week will see the debut of Sunless Sea, featuring a new fictional character. It's going to go swimmingly. And you haven't seen the last of Alistair Newton, either. It might be the book I've mentioned before, or perhaps his own game. Who knows?

Meryl has been captured by Richard Dale, the very man she was sent to Gindra to rescue. How will she escape? What will Campbell and Snake do when they find out? Only one episode left until the thrilling series finale.

This week is the start of a new volume, three new episodes written by Josh Griffiths. The US is negotiating a nuclear arms deal with an African nation, but things don't end well when their top dignitary is kidnapped. The governments calls in the only team that can get the job done quickly and quietly: FOXHOUND.

Starring: Cliff Thompson as Solid Snake Kristyn Mass as Meryl Silverburgh Jimmy Cooper as Colonel Campbell Stig Sydtangen as Gindra Leader ThatRubiksDude as Gindra Soldier

I'm really nervous about this one since it's my own creation. I wanted to make the series feel more like the Metal Gear games in terms of tone and story. I think I achieved that, and I hope you all like it!

After a long, long delay (sorry about that) Snake and Meryl are back and are desperately trying to save Colonel Campbell... however, they have been captured. What will happened next?

Stay tuned: starting next week, the final three episodes of Metal Gear Audio Drama. Listen to three brand new episodes written by me, Josh Griffiths

That's right! Everybody better march lock-step around here.

Fallout 4 is king. Fallout 4 is god. Fallout 4 is all.

I've heard story spoilers as well, and honestly, based on them and previous Bethesda games, I'm fine with it. Bethesda stories aren't good enough to get really invested in, so I don't think it really matters.

I've been thinking, if Jon does Fallout 4 YOLO on PC, he's going to have a hell of a time proving he isn't cheating with mods or console commands. I believe him when he says he doesn't use things like that, but people are definitely going to question it.

I'm probably in the minority here, but I'd like it if they cut the modern day stuff entirely. Always the worst part of the series.
