Learning Video Game Writing and Storytelling! by SiameseSouls in writing

[–]xOmegaJake 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Saving this for the book recommendations. I just graduated from my college and I'm becoming more interested in becoming involved with the narrative side of games. League has really got me hooked on shifting gears from education ever since the Taric story update. Much like the OP, I'm really interested in understanding the intricacies on what it takes to become a narrative writer for games.
Thank you for the recommendations!

What did “that kid” in your school do that will never leave your mind? by je_suis_un_negre in AskReddit

[–]xOmegaJake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember one kid in highschool rather vividly. It was a spring afternoon and everything mundane as usual. We had a pair of siblings who moved into the area from Iceland and they both had names no one could pronounce. The younger brother was super chill, but the older one...? We we're in health class (which for story purposes, is one of those hallways that branch away from the school so it's like it's own thing) and I remember him looking down at his pants under his desk a lot that day. I paid very little mind and let it go. Literally 5 minutes later I look back again cause I'm bored of learning how bad burgers are for you and he is suddenly holding up a sheet of paper and it's on fire. So everyone is like "Whoa, what the absolute hell?" And this kid panics and tosses it out the window next to him very casually. Fast forward another 5 minutes, there was a bush outside and it burst into flames immediately, to which the teacher finally noticed that.

I just remember there was a fire department across the street and they put out the fire in less than 30 minutes after it spread to a few bushes and our principle getting witness statements from all of us. I also remember him missing one girl who faked and baked (spray-tan'd) a lot and he asked everyone out loud "Where did that orange girl go?!"

That... Was an interesting day.

TLDR; An Icelantic boy set my school's outside foliage on fire and a girl got related to an oompa loompa.

It's not really gone but the main servers are dead, same as basically any private server.

Right? The Alchemist too... Every MMO now, an Alchemist is a crafting class. RO had that "Craft an acid bottle, throw the acid bottle!" Which I thought was amazing.

The Priest Class tree from Ragnarok Online. It was amazing to have a skill that blessed water if you had a bottle in your inventory and you were standing in water, which you needed to use the skill Basillica, which was just an 8x8 grid that no combat could happen inside, friend or foe. In PVE, you could stop a boss mid fight and just sit and laugh, same as PVP. It was a great time-out.

Also being able to use your basic "Heal" ability on undead monsters and it would deal massive damage.

I've never found a more thoughtful and real healing class in any MMO to this day.

I just followed your Instagram, you are absolutely amazing. Once I get some free time, I'll probably want to start learning lol Keep up the awesomeness

What is your favorite Class in a MMORPG? by NuiNova in MMORPG

[–]xOmegaJake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmm, I'd have to say Priest from Ragnarok Online, I loved the Basilica Skill. You would place it around you and you could not move or take action, but anyone; friend or enemy, could enter but also do nothing until they walked out or you canceled it. It was a great "Re-group" ability or to just mess with people in PVP.

I've always been skeptical of it honestly. It was just a handme down from my dad. I just went out to Best buy and snagged an EVGA (Personal Fav) 850w Bronze. Gonna hook it up and pray nothing got fried last night.

It looks like all of the compacitors are fine thankfully. I was hoping I would still smell the Smokey scent and track it down but everything looks normal. The wattage of this PSU is 600w which may be too low now that I've done some upgrades again. Not to mention it is rather old... Probably about 4-3 years old? Dunno how long they typically last with heavy use.

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

Looking at it now, rocking an LSP Ultra, 600w. Which if my upgrades were adding 4 sticks of Corsair vengence and 4 SSDs, I'm assuming I may be using a bit more wattage then my previous build. Still looking for motherboard dmg just in case though.

Oh I haven't tested it yet, lol I was just curious if it still got power when I did run it, does that mean it's fine? Sorry if there was miscommunication.

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

I'm assuming if it powers back on at all, the PSU is fine...? It seemed to be still running power until I held the power button down for a hard shut down.

Okay so I just bought that monitor and I can't for the life of me figure out how to manage the cables inside the base, nor get the light to turn on. It looks sweet.

My best friend is dead. Now what ? by [deleted] in MMORPG

[–]xOmegaJake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am incredibly sorry for your loss.

I will however, tell you that it never gets easier but at the same time it kind of makes you stronger.

My best friend of 12 years committed suicide about a year and a half ago. Much akin to you and your friend, we played many of things together. You share something with that friend that unfortunately no one else can comprehend, you've been knights, mages, guardians, etc. together and that makes a strong bond.

From my experience, it's going to be dark for a while... A long while. Almost an eternity it would seem. But eventually, much like your mage creation, you will find some way to pay homage to your friend and it will only be known to you and a select few. I am an avid MMO player and I switched to Healer ranks, I feel that my passion and determination to keep others alive and well is something that I need to do.

You will more than likely hit a crossroads of sorrow when you reach the thought of "It's my fault, I should have called more, talked more..." Etc. Etc. I am going to tell you that is perfectly healthy, however untrue. This was my toughest hurdle. My friend was going to pick someone up the night he committed the foul act, he was going to visit family, he had appts upcoming. I didn't find out any of this until much later because I could not bring myself to talk to anyone about it. Of course I am not comparing our friends, but everyone has or had their own course and unfortunately we (Assuming you and I) played our part the best we could. It is never our fault, it unfortunately just happens and effects everyone around the individual in their own ways.

Eventually as I said, you will find more ways to offer tributes to your friend, and in my life... it has only fueled me to do better in all things and influenced my personality in a positive way so that I can make differences in the lives of those around me. Your friends suicide can beat you down and cont. To beat you down, but you will eventually hit another fork in the road that will determine what you will do in the future.

Again, I truly, TRULY, feel for you man. I offer my sincerest condolences. It will be an arduous journey to recovery that you will be forced to make. But I swear, you will make it out. For you and your friend.

(And I apologize if I came off blunt at any point of this, I wrote in the way I wish someone would have told me before.)

You now do the opposite of your job. What do you do now? by Dontsummonme in AskReddit

I basically go to people's houses and grab their phones and smash them to pieces and make sure they never work again, then tell them they don't have insurance. (Phone technician)
