GIANT SPOILERS FOR OLD SKIES FROM THE BEGINNING!
Six months after launch, I feel like it's safe to start sharing more spoilery stuff- anyone who's played knows that's basically... the whole game.
Here's a little montage of some of my favourite acting moments playing Fia Quinn in Old Skies:

I don't know who needs to hear this but "funny" negative Steam reviews hurt developers.
"I haven't seen my wife and kids in 6 days after starting to play this game" - Negative review
It's not good y'all.

This mask is called the Stealth Clarity FFP3 for anyone wanting to follow suit.
It meant everyone, included D/deaf & hard of hearing people, those audio processing issues, and really anyone in a noisy environment could still chat to me!
So far I’ve avoided all Con Crud illnesses.

I was once in a pilot web series, struggling what I was doing in the scene. The director said “it’s just filler dialogue, like in The Office”.
They’d got funded to make the thing, but failed to realise that no dialogue is filler, ever!

i take frenzy damage every time i see someone go "well i just use it for the boring stuff". what are you TALKING about? if it's boring or unimportant, why are you putting it in? NPC dialogue is fertile ground for worldbuilding, creating verisimilitude, conveying important information, and hijinks!!
Buy a solo indie dev's game because I want to support them.
Find out it uses OpenAI to write "non-important NPC dialogue".

If writing is so easy why do people argue that they can’t do it without the pablumatic verbiage extruder
And if it’s so difficult then why do people think it’s not labour and writers are not workers

Je pense que mon jeu de 2025 est le Point'n Click Old Skies (en plus, j'essaye de privilégier les jeux nouveaux aux portages et aux remakes), mais le remake de Trails in the Sky fait clairement partie des jeux qui m'auront marquée cette année, tant j'ai apprécié de rejouer à cet épisode 🙂.

Narrative design is seen as "expendable" because it's not "top-level game design", says BAFTA Breakthrough participant Cara Ellison. But narrative is "the thing that actually keeps people picking the controller back up."
