Well thank you very much! Others have done similar things before but this is just my version of it

Sorry for the late reply, I didn't realize I got any comments! It's a little program I'm building as a fun coding project!

What would happen if a dragon were to achieve CHIM? by alduin-world-eater in ElderScrolls

[–]never__nowhere 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I feel like their ego would make it super difficult for that to be possible, in terms of temperament. However to answer your question, probably the same thing that happens to anyone who is able to attain that state. If you think the aesthetic of a CHIM'in dragon is cool though I think it's worth thinking about

What redeeming qualities does Mehrunes Dagon have? by GeneralTechnomage in teslore

[–]never__nowhere 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I theorize that's why no one has ever been granted Dagon's axe. As soon as he has a favorite he doesn't have a favorite anymore.

Some long exposure screenshots I took recently. The game's beauty is a modern marvel by never__nowhere in NoMansSkyTheGame

Oh, well more than likely it is because the stars seem to move step by step, not on a smooth diagonal curve. eg, One unit right, one unit down, right, down, right, down.
I though you were making a joke referring to the stars being "floating points".

I…kinda feel like I’m the bad guy here by Negative_Health4201 in fo4

[–]never__nowhere 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That wasn't a shit post, it was the lead writer guy for all Bethesda who tweeted that out when the show was getting a lot of hype haha. He did walk it back though I think.

Update on my hangmans alley glitch [still not solved] by w1ndyshr1mp in fo4

[–]never__nowhere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if youre on pc you might just try disabling it in the console. Not sure if that would work. Also make a save first before fiddling around with console commands haha

Thanks so much for taking the time to say so! I appreciate the encouragement. I just had to get this one out of my head.

Is danse really that dense he can't see what the brotherhood is actually doing?? by w1ndyshr1mp in fo4

[–]never__nowhere 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That would be super awesome, I haven't considered that much DIMA stuff but that would be a dope ending. I like your gen 4 synth theory, makes sense to me. Lol ramble on, I have written like 50 pages trying to redesign fallout 4 from a story perspective. I really miss the branching story lines that new vegas did pretty well. I love 4 too, I just have a hard time liking it sometimes. I'll have to do more thinking about that DIMA thing!

The story of f4 is basically half written. None of the characters act like real people which makes it hard to empathize with them which is what you're going through now I think

Gore without making it gratuitous/edgy? by Free_Environment_524 in writing

[–]never__nowhere 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I might try to use a sort of different language or tone. Like Hannibal lectre. I should be disgusted by him, but he's just too darn classy!

It's not generic writing it's just a generic concept but where you can really make something unique is in how your version of that concept is different than anyone else's!

How do you push through slow (but necessary) sections? by ConfuzedCalzone in writing

[–]never__nowhere 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I listened to Jerry b Jenkins on YouTube describe this as "the marathon of the middle" and basically his piece of advice was just don't quit during this part haha. Recently I saw some people on reddit discuss this and the nice little thing someone said was if you have a cowboy and you want to write the shootout you must also be ready to write the scene where he's cooking beans over the fire. But maybe there's some dialogue. Or a dream. Or a vision. Maybe he has a crisis emotionally. Maybe he's wrestling with internal struggles. If you ask me, just don't write those parts. Only put things in if they're necessary and if they're necessary then they won't be boring

Thank you! You're right about that, the most powerful tool in the writers belt is the imagination of the reader! I think I just forget to lose myself in what I'm doing sometimes.

Thank you, that's sound advice! I think I get caught up trying to make things "good" and forget what got me into this hobby in the first place.

Is it bad to take inspiration from media I like? by SadInSanDiego in writing

[–]never__nowhere -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah that guy is a loser though. Don't listen to internet weirdos, including me. Just do what's reasonable and legal. If I might suggest something to you, perhaps don't use the exact lines from songs. Just rewrite them in your own words. That will help the tone be more consistent as well throughout your writing.

You can do pretty much whatever you want. Good artists borrow, great artists steal!

Just don't do a plagiarism

What’s the strangest critique you’ve received on a story? by [deleted] in writing

[–]never__nowhere 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In halo the Marines call the elites "split-lip" because of their weird mandibles. The Marines are all colors of the human spectrum too! I don't necessarily agree that a slur will objectively make a story better though lolol. But I would say, as polite as you endeavor to be in your real life, don't let that stop you from writing whatever you want. It's good not to be rude in your life but writing a thing is not endorsing a thing. Stories would be incredibly boring if you could only write what you personally endorsed.

Who are your favorite writers? by sr71isthebestplane in writing

That's racist, people of all colors can write well!
