@geoffrey_cain Your book arrived today; can’t wait to read it.

[John Koszarek @johnkoszarek]

@pikuma Thanks for the heads up on this -- just preordered the book.

@pikuma I so wish I had bought one back in the day... !

Engraçado... Eu já acho o contrário. Colecionar/tocar pianos antigos é parte da minha personalidade, mesmo que eu não use esses pianos pra nada "útil" ou profissional. A mesma coisa acontece com programação; programar em assembler 6502 e 68000 faz parte da minha personalidade (minha esposa rolando os olhos de tédio pode confirmar 😅) e nem por isso uso esses CPUs pra nada útil. Pessoalmente, não vejo utilidade/trabalho como definição de quem a gente é.

@pikuma This is a great write-up! Thanks!

@SandyofCthulhu I love Jack Vance, too -- one of my favorite authors! Maybe I misunderstood your post, but... he did write multi-book series. Lyonesse, for one.

@johnnygizmo That's insane! Last night was the first time I had seen the Northern Lights... never thought it'd be from the backyard of my house in Chicago :-)

#ワンダと巨像20周年

[上田文人 @fumito_ueda]

『ワンダと巨像』が発売されてから20年。
あの頃、僕たちはプレイヤーを驚かせたい一心で、
どこかに本当に存在していたかもしれない“世界”を作っていました。
あの風や光の記憶は、今も別のかたちで生きているように感じます。
あの世界に触れてくれたプレイヤーの皆さんへ、心からの感謝をーー

Shadow of the Colossus: An Oral History by Matt Leone interviews the creators and those involved to tell the story of the making of the game!

[Genki✨ @Genki_JPN]

Fumito Ueda says Shadow of the Colossus originally started out as an online game!

He says the initial plan was to have multiple players ride horses through the wilderness and fight giant enemies. But the team lacked the technical resources to make such an online game and so they decided to drop the online features and make it a single-player game!

@SandyofCthulhu Agree. I find superheroes boring... do they _ever_ loose? It's hard to hate on Superman -- such a nice guy! A little offtopic, but why I find the mid-levels of a D&D campaign the most interesting. You have power. But there are a lot of things out there more powerful you....
