DAY 1 of me posting artwork I've been put off posting xoxo. An Emmrich I made for Emmrich Week (Day 1 Necromancy/Corpse-Whispering) that I never got around to "finishing" until days later. Man has way too many layers to his design :v

A digital painting of Emmrich from the Dragon Age series bathed in necrotic, green light. The artwork depicts him performing a ritual - marked by green tendrils of magic - upon a wreathed corpse.

A lot of people missed this. Jagex CEO Jon Bellamy seemed to double down on RuneScape’s muted approach to Pride in 2025, hinting he’d make a similar decision again if it’s still controversial to support LGBTQ rights in 2026

June, Jagex was accused of rolling back its support for Pride in RuneScape in an article over on Pink News. There was still in-game content to commemorate the event, but assets
were simply reused from last year's Pride. At the time, Bellamy drew ire from parts of both Jagex's own community and the industry at large over comments he made in an internal meeting with staff to address the situation - namely that pulling Pride content was to avoid a "backlash", adding that said content was "controversial in a way it didn't
used to be" At the time, one anonymous staffer accused the company of caving to American-style conservatism because of the shift in the political climate. Pressed on this, Bellamy stands by his original comments, emphasising
that it was his decision and no one else's. "Ultimately, my job is governance and protection as much as anything else, and so sometimes those kinds of harsh decisions have to be made to protect the imminent future of the game," he says. "If there are tough decisions to be made next year, we'll make them. If the world has changed a bit and the environment is different we will react accordingly

Trying to see if akinator knows nabor and

This feels like a very pointed call out

Screenshot of akinator, he is asking "Is your character associated with W.D. Gaster?" with a smug expression.

nothing chatgpt has done is as impressive as akinator, the mind-reading internet genie from 2007

Akinator, the mind reading genie

Akinator can read your mind and tell you what character you are thinking of, as if by magic. Think of a real or fictional character, answer few questions, and Akinator will try to guess who it is. Wil...

"you need an Always Evil Species so your players don't feel bad about shivving kobolds or something for gold" Wrong. your players just need to learn to enjoy playing characters who will shiv people who are just annoying or in their way for gold.

honestly smth like this makes it very easy to brush off minor little inconsistencies in character 😂 like yeah, they're not okay, it's fine

Taffing spy @taffingspy.bsky.social · 10d

precisely! tbh i like that the backstory is kept minimal; there's points where player headcanon would have to take over, and that's fine, but keeping the player vague enough to allow room for headcanons is a skill in its own right. but there's still a personality there, and as you say, a method

pirate quests are PEAK player character voice i swear 😂

Taffing spy @taffingspy.bsky.social · 10d

exactly 💀 i know it's odd to call a blank slate character ooc, but that's a really good example of it happening

the mildness of the player's reactions, with the occasional smarmy quip, plays well into rs's dry humour tbh. bro can kill an army and be a bit miffed at having to clean out bloodstains

Taffing spy @taffingspy.bsky.social · 10d

true, but there's some instances where it feels so out of left field, like the attitude towards hooknosed jack was so ???? adventurer my guy what the fuck is wrong with u

Taffing spy @taffingspy.bsky.social · 10d

sure they're a blank slate character but there's still elements to them that have a defined personality. just ask the dragon age fandom they're opinion on hawke vs inquisitor vs rook and you'll get a pretty solid answer on blank slate characters having a vibe about them

Taffing spy @taffingspy.bsky.social · 10d

tbh when i talk about player voice, a good example of what not to do is ratcatchers quest
seriously why is the adventurer so nasty in that quest 😭

Taffing spy @taffingspy.bsky.social · 10d

but that's me! i dont know how well flashback or in-the-past quests are taken. river of blood and pieces of hate both happened while the 6th age was ongoing, and that seemed fine, but maybe there's reasons why it can't always be done like that

Taffing spy @taffingspy.bsky.social · 10d

take necromancy/fort for example (especially fort); i'd have been a'okay with just putting them in the past. clear notice in the quest journal stating they're not at our current point in the story to let the ending post-aftermath breathe and have time

Taffing spy @taffingspy.bsky.social · 10d

i can only speak for myself though, and while i /personally/ am okay with flashback style stories taking place in 5th age / 6th age to clean up old storylines and hanging threads, i just. don't know what the wider opinion on that is. the devs for sure know better there
