#introduction
Hello! I'm Captain Cursor, aka Nicholas Taylor McDowell. I'm a Narrative Designer on #Riftgame. I do the voice of a drunken satyr and various other characters in Trion Games. I'm interested in RPGs both tabletop and computerized, science, mythology, and maybe politics, though maybe I need a refuge from it. My son is very good at machine learning, so I'll follow that though I don't remotely understand the math (though he does).Glad to be here!
Ran some more of the #PathfinderPlaytest for the kids today. The bard was too distracted while the party was setting off traps because he was working on perfecting his inspiring monologue monologue. I gave him an inspiration point.
Today at the #Starfinder game:
Security Bot: Who are you with? Where's your authorization?
Formian Warrior: "Whom".
Security Bot: *Eyes narrow, pulls out a tactical pike, charges its Thunderstrike Gauntlet, and rolls initiative.*
Today's plan; get some caffeine in me, talk to the barista about #DnD, go home and work on my #Starfinder campaign, maybe order a microphone if I'm serious about starting a podcast, and figure out what I am going to do with myself these next two weeks during Festivus.
That feeling when you search for something online, and the first relevant result on google is ... you. Lamenting about the lack of information on the subject. http://paizo.com/threads/rzs2v1ef?Arkanen-the-dirindi-and-the-sazarons
And yet another work day where I've spent filing requests for objects made out skulls be crafted. I'm living the dream! #gamedevlife
A friend linked this on that book of faces site. I had not read this before, but it helped me to sum up my feeling about why I hated the people who said "But it's art" when people complained that the Mass Effect 3 ending was bad. https://doycetesterman.com/index.php/2012/03/mass-effect-tolkein-and-your-bullshit-artistic-process/
Thinking about getting back to my #starfinder campaign this Sunday and how to make Liavra feel unique and quirky. Thinking that I'll put "lanes" in all the space encounter to represent all the micro-meteors, shepherd moons, and other orbital debris that is unpredictable around that planet. I think it needs a feeling of being a crazy place that somehow keeps working.
