I used to collect examples of 'environmental storytelling in the real world' on Twitter. I found it gave me ideas for environmental storytelling in games and demonstrated how 'on the nose' those real vignettes can be. I thought I'd recreate the thread here in the hope that others will contribute.
Today is a momentous day for the workers of Arena! After months of planning, waiting and organizing, our dream is finally a reality; the votes have been counted, and our union of UWOTC-CWA has been officially elected. From this day forward, we have a union!
Shoutout to anyone else who also sneakily watched games their parents would never allow them to play on YT or Twitch. While it doesnt beat actually playing them 9/10 times, it’s a nice way to stay engaged in the space
Wallace@exalclaw.com · last mo.And as for affordability, think it’s a huge factor not just bc of the cost of living crisis, but ppl forget that a major portion of ppl watching a stream are kids or teens who dont have a lot of disposable income! Or, from a different angle, teens have parents who wouldnt let them play certain games
They sell ANDOR action figures, of course, and of course the audience is 35-50-year-olds, but it's deeply funny to imagine children playing with little Luthen Rael and Saw Gerrera dolls. CHILD 1: I think violence is not only justified, but demanded CHILD 2: I agree, but haste could be our undoing

In working on the no gen AI directory, I've looked at a LOT of artist portfolios. Like, 350+ of them at this point. And I thought I'd compile what I was seeing done right, what surprised me (positively), and then what I was commonly seeing done wrong. Use this to tweak your own portfolio!

There are few joys as strong as those that come from telling stories together. There are few moments as inspiring as those that come from watching your players take incredible swings in a scene lovingly crafted for them. There are few experiences as cathartic as sharing your heart through art. 🌸
Does anyone know of any transcription tools for interviews that don't just feed the interviews into an AI/LLM? I'm working on a chat podcast right now and would love to find a tool that can make a transcript for me. I know there were tools like this pre-AI but am having trouble finding them.
Really fumbling the marketing here. I don't want extra productivity or AI talking to me while I drive, but I would like to pretend I'm on a Tron lightcycle.

I still toy around with the idea of getting/transcribing the script and hosting a streamed table read of "Clue" (or other goofy films) with streamers and TTRPG/AP folks for charity. Clue would also be fun and easy to have a producer doing sound effects (sequential, timed, numbered) along the way. 🤔
