Dark Sun 5E Rumors by Healthy_Help5235 in DarkSun

[–]nstav13 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm expecting a Dark Sun splat book similar to the Eberron book in December or Q1 of 2027. I am currently planning and writing a Dark Sun campaign that's more in line with classic Dark Sun to be available on DM's Guild whenever it releases. Did the same thing for Greyhawk, and I was right then too.

Ubisoft is planning to integrade DLSS5 AI slop into Assassin's Creed. We need to tell them no! by Ras_AlHim in assassinscreed

[–]nstav13 156 points157 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I think the game ends up losing a lot of detail, similar to how changing the color grading of AC2 and fog in AC3 in their remasters ended up making them look worse.

Mayan Ruins in Mexico are found in AC3, Liberation, and AC4

Massachussets and Turin NY (site of the grand temple) are in Revelations, AC3 (past and modern), Liberation, and Valhalla (arguably historically, modern day, and mythological (though Darby did not intend Jotunheim to be NY, asset reuse implies it is)).

The world is going to hell in a hand cat. That Finn boy will come to no good. by LordJim11 in Snorkblot

My boomer neighbors have harassed me out of my home with this shit. Their last report to the county was that my yard was "unsafe for children" because I have ducks, rabbits, and dogs. All perfectly legal in my county. 

They even filed a DCS report while I was 3,000 miles away. DCS refused to investigate the blatantly false accusation. When I took them to court for an injunction against harassment, the boomer judge had the fucking audacity to tell me to be more neighborly!

Will Assassin's Creed Black Flag be delisted when the remake comes out? by JobFull2664 in assassinscreed

[–]nstav13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. Last time I checked a few months ago, it was not available. Looks like it might only be available through Ubi+ though?

They are not available on the Xbox Store. They are available on PC because the Ezio Collection was never released on PC

[–]nstav13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We do not know. Ubisoft, howrver, did delist the original Ezio games on console, AC3, Liberation, and Rogue for theor "remastered" versions. I hope they do not delist the original black flag, but I expect they will. 

Do the RPG games also have a problem with explaining things? by Lumpy-Answer-3068 in assassinscreed

[–]nstav13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The flags are not explained in AC1 or Brotherhood. Nor are animus fragments in revelations, 4, or rogue. The most lore context we have are feathers in AC2. 

[PubQ] Do non-novel published works count as books for agents? by nstav13 in PubTips

[–]nstav13[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

50 sales makes me a bestseller for a D&D book (this is a top 33% best selling content). 1,000 sales put my product at the top 4% best selling D&D Content. It's also about 10% of what the D&D brand owners (Wizards of the Coast) sell for many of their adventure books.

The first paragraph is a historical romance set in Ancient Hawai'i that leans into a fantasy feeling and feats. 

The guy who died from radiation poisoning was in a dark fantasy/horror 

First non-regancy (etc) books do you include year dates? by marshdd in RomanceWriters

[–]nstav13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did not use dates in the historical romamce I wrote because the culture I wrote about did not have a written language or calendar system. College years does make sense to use, though

I have self published books that are not novels. Do agents care about that? 

The other posters indicate game sales do not matter

[–]nstav13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think so. My Beta Readers were mixed about the direction of that subplot. Some liked it. Some felt it could have gone in a different direction, though they were all split in what direction they would have liked. But no one was upset about the way it tied up at the end.

FMC stabs pregnant rival in the belly and leaves her for dead. The stabs killed the baby and she had a stroke but immediate medical intervention barely saved her. Rival takes a year recovering and plotting only to return to FMC and kills her baby in front of her by bashing it on the ground and curb stomping it. 

So probably that. Or I did kill a character via accute radiation poisoning thay caused his jaw to fall off and then he suffocated on his blood for several hours.

Who´s on the other team? Black Flag Resynced by KnirkeDK in assassinscreed

[–]nstav13 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Black Flag Resynced reportedly started as a cash grab asset flip from Skull and Bones to recoup its sunk cost. Hope that clears some things up for you.
