I'm someone who played the original Homeworld back in the day. The song that Yes wrote for the game is on regular playlist rotation.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jpLm4Nh7jNM
I loved the cosmic horror of Cataclysm (now called 'Emergence' thanks to Blizzard). I've sunk countless hours into HW3 and, eventually, the endless combination of mods that eventually became available. I was never great at RTS games, let alone strategy games, but there was something about Homeworld's enigmatic story, combined with its breathtaking music (which predated Battlestar Galactica by many years) and jaw-dropping visuals that simply transported my younger self into the game's heart-tugging odyssey. I was along for the ride, following the Kushan's journey across the stars, in search of Hiigara, 'home.'
As the band Yes sang, it 'was a question of origin.'
So this moment has been a long time in the making. That's what makes this moment especially weird, and, sadly, a little disappointing.
Like so many other players have been sharing in their reviews, I have mixed feelings after playing through Homeworld 3's campaign. Maybe it was the dramatic tonal shift between the game's trailers, which looked and sounded like what we've come to expect from a Homeworld game, and what we got in the finished game. Compared to the artful direction in the game trailers, the finished game's cuts-scenes look and feel rushed. The characters and script feel boilerplate. By the end of the short campaign (altogether 12 levels), I found myself nearly tempted to hit the space bar and skip the dialogue altogether.
Don't get me wrong. HW1 was lightning in a bottle. There was no reason to expect the developers to match it in the sequel, and from what I recall, that game's campaign wasn't very memorable, either. After all these years, and knowing that some of the original creators were behind the new game, perhaps I was expecting too much from HW3's campaign. Then again, I wasn't expecting so little.
There are moments, especially early on in HW3's campaign, that glimmer with the feeling and tone of the original games. "May the burden remain" comes to mind. Those moments are especially heartfelt, and you can tell that some love and care for the franchise went into the story, with a few callbacks and nods here and there for longtime fans.
The plot, however, is so uninspired and vague (especially its villain) that it makes these glimmering moments hard to appreciate. The campaign's game play is fun enough to enjoy. The maps are clever, and the ancient derelict super-structures are a lot of fun to work into your fleet strategies. I've already found myself requeuing for War Games and Skirmishes to experiment with different ways to utilize these structures (although I share the opinion that deep space maps are sorely missing from the game and just not Homeworld without them).
I don't share a lot of the vocal concerns about the game's lack of features. Those, I'm sure, are coming with patches and updates.
So what can I say? I'm left, sadly, with a similar opinion of Homeworld that I held before the release of this newest game.
If you're looking for a fantastic space opera story, Homeworld and Homeworld: Cataclysm remain unmatched. Homeworld 3 is much like Homeworld 2 in that it's campaign is somewhat forgettable.
If you're looking to get this game and hoping for a good story, I'm sorry to say that this title falls drastically short. I'm reminded of Noah Gervais' excellent video essay, 'A Thorough Look at Homeworld,' where he described HW2's story as 'maddeningly bland... devastating to player investment.' Noah's analysis of HW2 is entirely, disappointingly dead-on accurate for HW3.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SALZWWPMKIA

Should You Buy Homeworld 3?

If you're looking to enjoy epic and colorful space battles, wait a few months for the patches to start rolling out. Think about grabbing it on sale.
Fortunately and from the looks of it, the game's developers seem to be pretty responsive, and I'm imagining they'll be scrambling to start patching the game and winning back the Homeworld community's trust (developers, you've heard the fans: give us those deep space maps).
It's clear that the developers were betting on the success of multiplayer and modding for HW3's longevity. So while Homeworld 3's short campaign may be unfixable, I think it's safe to say that the game's features and elements will keep improving and expanding.
Who knows, maybe they will even release new story content that listens to what the fans have been calling for. After seeing The Templin Institute's video essay which explored many of Hiigara's factions, it's hard to deny that the Homeworld universe is sitting on a wealth of intriguing stories that rival any of the great space operas of science fiction.
Here's hoping they tap some good writers and tell new stories, capture the imagination of a new generation.

As I understand it the original creator is not a part of production anymore. A quick look and all of the writers from season 1 are also not involved.
I enjoyed how season 2 turned out, but it did feel a little different from s1. I suppose it is possible that not much or nothing was planned for season 2 by the time they exited, but it seems some mysteries may have had similar reveals as what we got (like the reason for Rebecca's disappearance). Or maybe he left behind broad strokes that were followed (mostly). That's what seems the most likely to me.
How do you think it would have been different if Brian Watkins and crew wrote season 2?

recently I learned with Kendrick Lamar that I wasnt hating on my full potential, so, here it goes
I have no words for this S04 ending besides fuck the creators, fuck the writers, fuck the producers, fuck the showrunners, fuck the editors, fuck the actors, fuck them mommas and even fuck them kids. not even 1 singular unit of working brain cell was present during the whole creation process, briefing, recording, editing, and airing of that shit to say "yeah, I dont think so"
no, I didnt like Rita. I have no clue if the actress is that good on portraiting someone that became stale and had to re-learn how to live while growing 2 kids basically alone after the whole trauma she suffered for years, or if she was a lame actress really trying to do her best for that paycheck at the end of the month. acting on the series isnt top tier, we have some bad, some ok, some good and even Cellulite Sally levels of acting and thats really ok. but some thinks cant fly, and her lame ass, uncerimonial ass, poor ass, pathetic ass, weak ass, trivial ass, feeble ass, flimsy ass, rushed ass, cheap ass, yee yee ass, unnamed filler credited as "Dead Woman #2" character ass death is one of them
the moment he was home and that murky actions filter wasnt off after dealing with Arthur I saw something was off. then her phone rang I really was "nuh uh. she do is dumb, but they really not gonna pull that one", then the baby conveniently started crying and I already knew that they either went to pull a "haha, u thought wrong and everyone is fine, its just Dexters daydreaming on becoming Arthur catching him" or they would do something really stupid. not even after the episode ended I was believing it wasnt just them edging the audience for the next season instead of letting us release and rejoice Dexter learning and becoming more of a "normal" human and how his CI panty collector stallion of a step-father was even more wrong about his code
I really came to the internet and search if she was really dead because I wasnt in the mood to start the next season today even before that scene and now Im here venting how frustated I am on this beatiful night after a really nice day for me while I reconsider if I keep watching. it would be way better a different ending than this shit or the books one since I also got spoiler on it and I dont think the series would go there too
tonights the night that I really hope everyone involved on the making of that scene steps on Lego and hit their pinkie finger on a hard slab tonight. I dont know and dont care if that was a big shock moment that skyrocketed discussions about the series 15 years ago how more recent shows did

I'll caveat all of this with the fact that I binged 2 straight seasons; so there's certainly a level of interest and addiction to the mystery of the show. So there's that. And, really, this is my being upset with myself for not having the discipline to just turn it off.
I'll also say that Josh Brolin, Imogen Poots, Will Patton, and Tamara Podemski did a phenomenal job bringing to life what is an extremely tired, predictable, frankestein'd amalgamation of a number of shows that have already been done. The (very) few truer "western" parts of the show are frankly what keep it remotely engaging.
Now onto what's really grinding my gears...and apologies in advance as a lot of this is not MECE, and overlaps a bit with itself.
1/ The plotline. Painfully unoriginal. Truly - this is just a "multiverse" spin on Yellowstone. With less connective tissue or relevance than say Interstellar. This is truly one of the cases where you really are better off reading the Wiki and avoiding hours of literally nothing happening, except a couple of great scenes with the aforementioned actors. 1 scene each should do it though -- it's going to be the same thing over and over again from each of them. The real problem here - is that we're strung through a ton of episodes and time just to show us how the world works. The longer you take to show us, the more convinced I am that you don't know what you're doing, writers, and you're just winging it as you go. The real plotline -- with August/Royal -- is actually OK (even though it's basically Interstellar), but it's just way too forgotten in showing us how "craaaazy" this world is.
2/ The narrative weaving and call-backs. Other than a single, highly teased twist in the first season that you slowly, slowly, slowly wait for across 8 hours, there is very little continuity in the show. Plot twists and new lines of plot are forced in with little-to-no interesting narrative, nor any explanation to it. Despite this, it's painfully obvious what's happening, yet they continue to tease it out. It's also wildly evident that the show creators thought there was no chance for a season 2, as evidenced by how little set-up there was for any future seasons.
3/ The build. There's no twist in Season 2. I must say -- I am ashamed I watched it. Painful, unoriginal, and absolutely no impact on the end vision.
4/ The "ore". What a cheap explanation with little to no boundaries. Again, semi-ripping off of another concept of "spice". They effectively constantly change its abilities/properties to fit whatever plot holes they need fixed. The writers are running out of good ideas and have to leave themselves massive gaping holes of plot tricks to later on decide to invent something and act like it's been there the whole time.
5/ The time travel convenience. I'll hold my breath on going in on this one until maybe there's some logical explanation as to why they travel to very convenient/specific time periods when they jump in the hole (maybe some greater force pulling the strings?). But as it stands now, it seems ridiculous that magically they all just happen to end up at the exact point that the plot needs them to be. Perry at pre-Trevor night; Perry at young Royal time; Royal at the future (maybe this was intentional, but everyone else's reactions did not seem it)...But wait! Now Joy gets to experience it and she goes to...a part of her family heritage? Oh, but no, wait -- there's Royal! There it is.
6/ The writing and cheap plot tricks. I've referenced this already in all the other pieces, but it warrants being said again. It's a terribly written show. And I mean truly, truly terrible. The dialogue is mediocre at its absolute peak, and lazy on average. So much of it is built in here to tease out "properties" and "functions" of this world and the time-traveling, but it's all just a little too convenient. The whole set-up is to show to us in Season 3 how multi-verses interact with each other. Just cut to the chase, and get on with the actual plotline.
Maybe a hole will pop up nearby any future viewers so they can jump in and just tell the writers that this should actually just be a movie, and actually think and condense the plot.
Where do you disagree?

VARIETY:
"Marvel has tapped “Star Trek: Picard” executive producer Terry Matalas to resurrect Vision, the synthezoid played by Paul Bettany, for a new, untitled Disney+ series set for 2026, Variety has learned exclusively. Bettany will return to the role and Matalas will serve as showrunner. [...]
Marvel brought in Matalas after his work running Season 3 of “Star Trek: Picard” — which brought back the cast of “Star Trek: The Next Generation” to widespread acclaim, garnering Matalas a WGA award nomination for the 2023 series finale — greatly impressed the top brass at the studio. (Marvel chief Kevin Feige, an avowed Trekkie, even recently appeared with Matalas on a two-hour episode of the “Star Trek” podcast “Inglorious Treksperts.”)
An earlier version of a Vision series had been in development with “WandaVision” creator Jac Schaeffer, but Schaeffer’s attention turned to running a separate “WandaVision” spinoff, “Agatha All Along” with Kathryn Hahn, that is set to premiere in September.
With Matalas coming on board, this will be Marvel’s first new live-action series pickup in almost two years, representing a significant shift in how the company produces television for Disney+. Originally, Marvel adopted a features model, hiring head writers to create predetermined (and, often, already announced) shows, but assigning most leadership responsibilities to the directors and creative executives. Marvel’s head of streaming, television and animation Brad Winderbaum recently told Variety that, starting in 2022, the company began to shift to a more “traditional approach” to TV, with a lengthier development period and a return to hiring writer-producers to oversee the entire production as showrunners. The company is also rebranding its live-action TV output to Marvel Television and reducing the number of shows it makes to roughly two per year, down from as many as four. [...]"

Is them bringing in new content creators and to give them a platform. That's what YouTube was to a lot of these people who are now doing their own channels. I kind of hope they have contests so fans have the opportunity to get exposure to their content, kind of like how Mythical got one of their writers through one of their contests.

Hello !
I am looking for a YouTube video I saw about 4 years ago. It followed one graffiti writer, somewhere in the USA. The shots and production quality were quite artful. He added a very poetic narration to the video, about graffiti and life, it was quite philosophical and calming. He never showed his face but from the way he spoke and looked, I would say he was about middle aged. It sounded like he had been doing it for quite a long time. He painted some trains & buildings in train yards, both at night and in the daytime. It might have been Portland or California, seemed to be West Coast USA from what I can remember. I'm not sure if there was music in the video.
The video was about 30 minutes to an hour in length, if I recall correctly. I found the whole thing quite calming and refreshing to see a graffiti writer with such a philosophical and calm deameanor.
If this rings any bells please let me know! I forgot to favourite it/bookmark it, and have been trying to find it for a while now.
Cheers ! :)

100 Awesome Flash Fiction Prompts - Plus Bonus Prompts!
We’ve put together 100 flash fiction prompts, each one designed for a very short story. These prompts will probably be best suited to a story of between 300-1,000 words. If you want to write a longer story using these prompts, you can easily expand these ideas to fit a story of any length.
What is flash fiction?
Flash Fiction is defined as a very short story that can be anywhere from just a couple of words to about a thousand in length. The beauty (and difficulty) of writing flash fiction lies in trying to tell a complete story in so few words. Great flash fiction is succinct, emotive, thought-provoking, and impactful.
What’s the difference between flash fiction and a short story?
The only difference between flash fiction and a typical short story is the word count. However, this scarcity of words means that writing flash fiction can feel like a completely new skill. Just like the short story is a different animal to the novel or novella; flash fiction is kind of unique.
When writing flash, you’ll need to use fewer characters, a simpler plot, and you’ll have to make each word count. This is why editing is so important. You have to be brutal. Cut out everything superfluous and really make sure each and every word is performing an important function in the story. If you’re interested in writing very short fiction, why not check out drabbles? Drabbles are stories of exactly 100 words in length, and they can be a great way to practice keeping your stories very, very short.
How to plot a flash fiction story
When you sit down to write flash fiction, you must begin by choosing an appropriate plot. You cannot simply use a short story plot and tell it using fewer words. A typical flash fiction plot is like looking at one part of a story under a microscope.
For example, let’s look at prompt #21 in our list of 100 Flash Fiction Prompts:

1. Two people on a sinking ship must decide who should take the last seat in the last lifeboat. If you were writing a novel about a sinking ship, you’d probably want the actual sinking to be the climax of the story. Of course, there are infinite ways to write a novel about a sinking ship, but this would structurally be the most obvious. You’d use the first part of the novel to introduce your characters and describe the voyage leading up to the sinking and the sinking of the ship would be the dramatic climax, leaving the last part of the book as the resolution.

The golden rule of writing short stories is to begin as close to end as you can. So, to turn the same story from novel to short story, you’d probably want to begin with the ship sinking. You haven’t got time to introduce the characters before the action begins, so you’d need to feed in exposition and backstory here and there during the events.
All stories need a good climax. So, you would find the most dramatic moment in the story and build up to it. Perhaps your climax would be the two main characters having to decide who will take the remaining seat on the last lifeboat.
Finally, you need a resolution. In a longer short story you do have time to bring in some kind of satisfying resolution at the end.
But, if you’re writing flash fiction and your story is only a few hundred words, you really need to zoom in on one tiny moment in that story.
You don’t have time to tell the entire story of a sinking ship, but you can turn one moment into a story.
We’ve chosen the lifeboat situation as the key moment in this hypothetical story. Two characters must decide which one of them will take the last seat on the last lifeboat. This is an appropriate plot for flash fiction because it’s simple, high-stakes, dramatic, and thought provoking.
Not all flash fiction will have a plot quite this dramatic, but all great flash fiction will have a plot that can be expressed in just one or two sentences.
If you have a plot in mind, but it seems more suitable for a longer story, you can sometimes find several flash fiction plots hidden within it. Just look for little stories within the story, like the lifeboat moment in our hypothetical tale of the sinking ship.
This brings us to our top tip for coming up with ideas for flash fiction stories:
if you’re ever stuck for ideas, you can find little stories within the story in books, movies, and TV shows. A full length feature film might have as many as 20 little incidents in it that could easily be flash fiction.
Don’t directly write a story based on the film, though. Just carefully pick out those little moments, write down what’s happening as a one or two sentence plot, and then use it to inspire your own, completely original flash fiction story.
One of our 100 Flash Fiction Prompts was actually taken from the movie Pulp Fiction!
How to write very short flash fiction
There are several reasons writers might start writing flash fiction. Of course, it could be that they just love and enjoy the form, but sometimes they’ll be a more strategic and practical reason at play.
Perhaps they want to practise the process of writing stories within the confines of a certain word limit. Maybe they are trying to develop a daily writing routine and they don’t have a lot of free time. It could be that they’re trying to break a habit of not finishing writing projects, or perhaps they are entering a flash fiction competition.
Whatever the reason, very often when we sit down to write flash, we must work under an imposed or self-imposed word restraint. We’ve set ourselves (or been set) the task of keeping the story under a particular number of words.
So, how do you plot a flash fiction story when you have to keep your story very, very short.
We’re not going to discuss stories of 100 words or fewer here. Technically, those stories are still flash, however, we prefer to categorise 100 word stories as drabbles and anything under 100 words as micro fiction.
But what if you have to keep your flash fiction story under, let’s say, 300 words? How do you write a flash fiction story that short?
The answer is: get your microscope out again. Remember earlier when we said writing flash fiction is like looking at part of a story under a microscope? If you have to write very short flash fiction, you’ll need to zoom in even further.
Let’s look at a couple of examples from our 100 Flash Fiction Prompts:

1. During a match, a young boxer must decide whether to throw the fight.

If you had 1,000 words to devote to the story, you could have time to tell the story of the entire fight. With only 300 words, it might be better to zoom in on the very moment when the boxer must choose whether or not to go down.
In a longer flash fiction story you might have time to go into detail about why he’s in this situation and why he’s so conflicted. In a 300 word story, you might only devote one or two sentences to his gambling debt and the large sum of money waiting for him if he goes down in the third round, as instructed.

1. A family must decide what to take and what to leave behind as a wildfire approaches their home.

If you had 1,000 words to devote to this story, you might be able to write about the whole process of choosing what to take and what to leave behind. You might be able to mention many different choices and have the whole family participate in the story. You’d be able to go into some details about certain choices and the stories behind individual objects or mementos, as well as the implications of choosing certain things over others.
With only 300 words, it would be advisable to zoom in on one member of the family and to focus on one profound and important choice.
How to write a flash fiction story
Now you have your mini plot, you still need to make sure your flash fiction feels like a complete story. It should still have a beginning, middle, and an end.
Just like a short story, you may need to bring in a little exposition here and there to give texture, context, backstory, and to bring some depth to the characters. But, unlike a short story, you won’t necessarily need to end with a full, detailed resolution. It’s quite common for a flash fiction story to end with a quick twist or plenty of ambiguity.
Flash Fiction is much more about eliciting emotions and provoking thought, than setting up and resolving a complex story.

Yes.
I could just leave it at that, but I'm feeling rant-y. So, after 1500 hours in the game, having played every patch from the first early access to the most recent one, I feel like I have a lot of opinions.
For some context, I'm a long-time dnd player, and I picked up this game to scratch that itch in-between campaigns. Does it feel like playing dnd? No, not really, but I feel like it's pretty much as close as it can get in a video game as of now. Special mentions for all the class/subclass and race-specific dialogues, that really makes it more immersive.
The thing I like the most about this game is definitely the companions and their stories. Some of them took me longer than others to warm up to, but now I have some sort of affection for all of them. The writing for them is great (even if it's obvious that some have received more love from writers than others).
Now for the points I normally use to rate whether a game is good/worth my money or not:
Is it pretty?

• Yes. The decors are beautiful, the graphics are nice, I like the aesthetics. Sure, the character creator is not the most detailed, but I can live without sliders to measure the exact width of my character's nose bridge. I am a PC player, so I have used mods to make my characters look different, and that's enough for me. My main petty issue with how the game looks is the... creative decisions on some of the dyes.

Is it replayable?

• Heck yes. With all the different classes, subclasses, races combinations available, as well as the origin characters, and the things you can do in game that makes outcomes different, there definitely is a lot of replayability. An evil dark urge drow sorcerer run is gonna feel different from a good paladin gnome run. Some races, like githyanki also provide a fairly different experience. However, some parts do feel somewhat repetitive and tedious after playing the game so much. Act 1 is a bit of a drag. Fights and encounters that were very exciting the first time feel a bit like a chore once you have them down. Specifically, the Grymforge fight, the entire gauntlet of Shar, and the Artist's house make me want to die a little bit at this point.

Is it balanced? Too hard? Too easy?

• This one seems to divide the community a lot. Seems like every other day I see posts both from people who struggle on explorer difficulty, and from people whining that Honor Mode is still too easy. Personally, I feel like the game is at a rather nice level. I have played muliplayer both with people who are complete video game noobs, had never played rpgs, had no knowledge of dnd, and with people who are compulsive power gamers and enjoy spending hours researching what the most optimal builds are and how to cheese everything to never encounter a challenge. I myself am somewhere in the middle, I like having builds that work well, but I prefer to try out different things every time rather than play the same Sorcadin/ Gloomstalker Assassin/whatever is the shiniest meta-build available.
• With that, I'd say that the game difficulty is confortable. I'm not bored when playing Explorer with my noob friends, because I'm trying fun builds and enjoying the story, and I'm not suffering on Tactician unless I make some really dumb choices or am especially unlucky. Honor Mode is a fun challenge; I have failed it more times than not, and always in dumb ways. I also am not personally a fan of the famed barrelmancy, or of the cheesy way to use every buff available with a camp companion tactics. Mostly because it is time consuming, and also a bit immersion-breaking to me.
• I feel like everytime I say something about a fight being challenging, I get responses like "git gud, just stack 25 barrels, use these 8 buff spells every morning, and Bob's your uncle". Not for me but thanks.

Is the community nice?

• Overall, yeah I'd say we're a pretty nice bunch. The devs and the VAs are good at engaging with players and listening to our feedback. Especially during early access, I gained a lot of respect for Larian due to the changes they implemented based on player opinions.
• As for the player base, I've mostly had positive interactions. My main grief is with people online who can't help themselves but be unnecessarily nasty when people have differing opinions on game content. Every single post or question that mentions any companion inevitably has at least one response that says "hehe I kill them everytime". Like , good for you. I don't care, if I ask a question about the Astarion or Gale romance, I clearly was not asking you then.
• But overall, the community is a lot nicer than others I have experienced online.

Is the story good? Is it coherent? Do player choices matter?

• This one is a definite yes for me. While obviously the main story is always somewhat similar from run to run, the ending can be different enough to tempt me into making different choices every time. Obviously if this was an actual tabletop campaign it would be a bit railroad-y, I like the semi-openness of the world, and I feel like we get freedom to do things in whatever order we like within each Act.
• One gripe I do have is that the writing makes things seem more urgent than they are, and new players seem to have a hard time identifying what quests are time-limited or not. Biggest offenders to me are the "we need to get these tadpoles out asap we have 7 days or we'll all die" and "Orin kidnapped your friend they are in imminent danger better rush to her or they'll die".
  Is it faithful to the source material?
  
• Kinda? Overall I like the changes that have been made to 5e mechanics, they make sense from a game design perspective.
  
• I would have loved to see more non-PHB content. But I get that the sheer number of playable races and subclasses available in tabletop would have been too much to give us. (What I wouldn't give to be able to play a mf Loxodon in this though...)
  
• I do have some issues with stuff that has been added that are not a thing in dnd though. Some of the conditions that can be applied, like Arcane Synergy, Reverberation, Lighting Charges, etc., seem a bit out of place and I don't really know what to do with them.
  
• My least favourite thing that has been added though is definitely Radiant Retort. To me it is one of the worst decisions in the game, making Paladins and Clerics completely useless against most undeads and fiendish enemies goes completely against established lore and it is my biggest pet peeve in this game.
  

Is it worth the money?

• It is pricey, but no more than any other major releases. Considering the amount of hours you can put even in one single playthrough and how replayable it is, I'd say you get your money's worth. And the lack of microtransactions also makes me very happy.

Is the muliplayer good?

• Yes. I personally like solo or 2-man runs most, because I feel like you miss out on companion interactions otherwise, but it is enjoyable regardless.
• I wish there was crossplay between PC and consoles. I heard that this was in the works, and am hoping it will arrive soon, because I have PS5 friends and we like playing games together, but not enough to buy a new platform and a second copy of the game lol.

Is it very buggy? Any performance issues?

• I have been lucky to not encounter many game-breaking bugs, unless I was messing around with mods without being careful. Some bugs here and there have been annoying especially on honor mode, but nothing that made me too angry.
• Performance-wise, I have a pretty nice middle-range PC, nothing crazy. The game runs very smoothly on high settings, and only struggles on ultra in some areas.

Any other thoughts?

• Overall, it is a great game, I am thoroughly enjoying it still, even after 1500 hours.
• I would say that it is not a game for everyone. I have friends who I have recommended against buying it because I knew they would hate the turn-based combat and rather slow pace.

Got a request for a mod? Please post it here
What are some good steps to making a suggestion?
- Be clear on what you want
- Be reasonable. Making mods is not a small effort. Suggesting massive mods is going to be unrealistic.
- Be willing to help. Everyone has ideas for mods, and most content creators already have things they want to create. If you have ideas for a mod, be willing to learn how to do some of the steps yourself. Most requests stating "I'm just the writer" or "I'm just here for ideas" will not be accepted by creators.
- Be respectful of the content creators. Don't make demands, offer ideas.

I want to be a gaming news and review article writer, content creator, and streamer for a living however I am particularly intrigued by gaming hardware and how it works. Should I go to school for computer engineering? I already have the gen-eds completed through running start.

What a finale! It was nothing short of spectacular, a fitting conclusion to a truly remarkable show. Often, series finales struggle under the weight of tying up countless loose ends, burdened by the pressure of deadlines. This can result in endings that fall short, doing a disservice to the characters we've grown to love. Yet, there are those rare gems, like "Archer" or "Bojack," where the creators eschew convention, crafting endings that are uniquely beautiful.
This finale, however, stands out as something truly special. It delivered a conclusion worthy of a series that has been a part of my life for over a decade. From freshman year of high school to college, grad school, and now a job on the other side of the country, this show has been a constant companion, shaping countless memories and friendships along the way.
For an ending that does so much service, it is wrong for the audience to do it so little. I had to rewatch the ending a couple of times to truly appreciate it. So many subtle jokes, callbacks and character growth. As a fan of the shisno storyline it saddened me a little to find out it was a simulation, but after watching the explanation of Church/epsilon running the simulations and literally tearing himself apart to find a solution to save his crew? Masterful storytelling. And that’s the thing with this finale, it was masterfully done. Comedy mixed in with seriousness at just the right moments. It would have been so easy for the comedic elements of the reds and blues to cheapen the emotional moments, but it was so beautifully worked in.
Not every character made an appearance, and that's okay. Not everyone needed to be a part of this storyline, the reality is that the reds and blues have been fragmented through years of battle. People move on and don’t necessarily get a great ending. What upped the stakes for this last hurrah was that the consequences not only felt real but were real. Sarge’s death came as a massive shock, and I actually could not believe they would kill a main character like that. But after that scene, nothing was off the table; the final battle was not some normal reds and blues battling the bad guy. Our beloved characters could actually die, and that heightened my experience.
Let's talk about character growth. Caboose's transformation from comic relief to a source of empathy and strength was particularly moving. Going from “Tucker did it” to “I’m sorry you’re going through this, its not your fault”. Tears man, what a stoic moment. Also having the wherewithal to finally end the AI’s even though it meant killing his best friend. “I’m going to be sad for a while”, same Caboose, same.
Sarge died in the most Sarge way possible, walking one of his own back from the depths of hell. A true leader with a fitting end for a character who embodied loyalty and sacrifice. I am so glad the writers did not cheapen his death with some slapstick comedy and made it a solemn moment throughout the ending. Paying homage to his memory and using it as springboard to make the other characters better. Grif finally got discharged, it was all he ever wanted, but not before making the conscious decision to stay for one last battle. Character growth doesn’t get much clearer than that.
And that final battle? It was a testament to brilliant storytelling, deftly weaving together past conflicts and character arcs into a thrilling conclusion. Stories have this problem when they create a monolith enemy, someone that is so strong that the heroes need a deus ex machina to win. I honestly could not anticipate how they were going to beat the Meta until the very last bit where the final plan was revealed. Brilliant storytelling bringing back a character skilled in handing it to the reds and blues while training the AI enemy on how to fight like a red and blue. Not only is this next level writing, but it sticks true to the modus operandi of the crew, they fight by taking a galactic whooping and outlasting the other guy haha.
Finally let’s talk about the nostalgia hits. Returning to Blood Gulch for the finale was a nice touch, bringing the story full circle. That montage of Grif, Simmons, and Caboose around Tex reminiscing about the story just sent me. The “Cone protect me!” and “How is this physically possible?!” scene were favorites. I didn’t notice though until a second rewatch that most if not all of those scenes they were remembering involved Tex, a hint to who Caboose was really trying to bring back. Just another layer of nuance.
To Rooster Teeth: thank you for crafting an ending that honors the legacy of a show that has meant so much to so many. It truly feels like the end of a chapter in my life, and for that, I'm grateful.
Bow chicka bye now.

I'm sure many of you weirdos are familiar with the new show "Baby Reindeer." It's a gripping series based on true events experienced by the lead actor, who was brutally stalked by a woman named Martha, a character inspired by a real person. All the characters are based on private individuals except for Darrien, who represents a TV writer whose identity hasn't been disclosed. The show's creator, Richard Gadd, was relatively unknown before the series gained popularity. This makes me think that if a series like this can exist, an equally or even more captivating series about Lorne Armstrong could be made.
