Seasons

Finally, is there anything else you can say, really?

While I do think that weather and seasons should have been included from the start, I’m sure it’s better now than it might’ve been if they had added it from the start, so I’m not complaining. And it is gorgeous.

The effects are really quite realistic, the rain on ponds and the ocean as well as dripping from the roofs, the fog rolling in and the snow wrapping everything in fluffy white. The wind is pretty cool too, everything in the game feels more alive suddenly.

So, anyway, I have been playing Skyrim quite a bit, but the main reason I’m not updating The End of the World is that I’ve been obsessively remodeling Sunset Valley and giving its families makeovers and now with seasons I have to go over every single family again to fix their outer wear!

I do of course tend to do this in Barnacle Bay too, but I have actually lost my most recent copy of the town through some brain malfunction of my own and will have to go back and mess around with an older version until I’m happy.

Story Update: The End of the World Ch. 4 A Chance

Here we go, finally, after many, many months!

The End of the World: Ch 4 A Chance

Profiles

Wow, long time no write, as per usual!

I started a profiles page for the characters in The End of the World. There's only two characters up so far, but I'll do more as the story continues, which it will, despite the long lapse in updates!! I've been really busy on the one hand and had a really annoying writer's block on the other, but the next chapter will be up very soon now. I don't dare give a day, but this week, damn it!

I like the profile pictures, they look kind of semi professional, I wanted something with a variety of expressions, something that spoke to their personalities and I think it turned out at least half way decent.

Still, I don't know if I'm satisfied with how I'm handling the info, I wasn't sure whether to write a bio or just write the information out in a list like age: interests: etc. so maybe it'll change eventually.

Spring to Summer

OK, summer's here, today anyway, weather is horrible in the spring, it's like some evil spirit is waving the sun and warmth on a string and pulls it away just as you're getting to enjoy it, but now finally it seems they're bored with the game and we get to sit in the sun and sneeze... stupid allergies!

Haven't had time to update or write at all, but I have a bunch of pictures for the next chapter lying around, at least I'm no Blizzard fan so I doubt I'll be getting sucked into DiabloIII, looks so boring from the gameplay vids, I'm sure the story is great, but I don't like the look of it at all, though all my fellow students are going wild.

Anyways, I'll try to keep my writing alive, but my brand new graphics card is having issues so gaming is slow, also new my new headset was broken and the store suddenly decided to drop the product... I'd get it if I was buying cheap crap, but I am buying expensive crap here, it should at least work until I break it!!
