J’ai décidé de traduire un jeu en vieil anglais pour votre plus grand plaisir 🤓

Ici, un nouveau format de best of « clips dump » pour que les gens qui ont pas suivi l’aventure s’amusent quand même, et que les autres aient des souvenirs 🌠

Si vous n'avez rien à carrer du métavers, je vous promets que cet épisode va vous y intéresser. On y parle de justice réparatrice ! Comment l'influence politique des géants du numérique s'est d'abord façonnée dans les mondes virtuels !

(je vous y parle aussi de fanfictions sur le hockey sur glace)
Tiens, vous avez regardé votre montre ?

Vous avez rendez-vous TOUT DE SUITE avec les Internet Exploreuses et @stellaykv.bsky.social, qui se sont retrouvées dans le monde physique pour parler des métavers. Ringards, abandonnés ... mais peut-être encore utiles à la société ?

I like that the same day a guy was like “this place will never be Twitter” this thread gave us the most 2015 Twitter experience (complimentary) imaginable.
I just woke up from a nap and somehow while I was asleep, everyone on the bus has figured out we are not going to the right place

Imagine playing in a world where the story, environment & world lore were all slop. No profound interconnections, no elaborate web of meaning underlying it & holding it all together. No greater story to reveal once you see how the pieces play off each other. Just slop vomited everywhere
This is hitting video games where “environmental art” is being concepted by AI.

And it is those posters, signs, graffiti, and other bits of art that tell the story of the world being turned into generic placeholders.

Also, lore and story are intertwined. They complement and reinforce each other. The magic happens when you play them off each other in ways that deepen the player experience. Those serendipitous connections come you, the creator, and your game is richer for them

Un jeu de déduction par les devs de Heaven’s Vault et 80 Days ? Serait-ce l’odeur du GOTY ? TR-49 et sa fiction audio interactive à base de secrets de la Seconde Guerre Mondiale : ici on mange ça.

Oh I see, we’re quoting our answers!

The MYST series. There is no after, it still exists. It comes with 90s nostalgia, so nothing surpasses this.

Ok I will follow up with a thread of photos of my collection. Listen, YOU ASKED. Here are my maps and Myst Chest (w/ other Cyan games)

And my personal favorite from a mss from Brasenose College, Oxford in 1528, added to a mss copy of Cicero’s De officiis by a monk of Osney Abbey about John Burton, the local abbot (&, according to other historical sources, an actual massive POS).

So much solidarity, dear little monk.

there’s stuff circulating about Wikipedia and AI; I’d ask that you dig into this thread before getting concerned.
Sure. AI companies have ALWAYS been training their models on Wikipedia content, which under the free and open access model is available to anyone — including AI companies. Agreements like these require AI companies to limit and offset the strain they place on Wikimedia infrastructure.
