Here for some The Silt Verses praise! It beautifully written, wonderfully acted by an incredible voice cast, and I want more people to fall in love with it!
Planning to write a thing about the archival themes in a world of gods and monsters...eventually.

The Game Awards are not the Oscars of video games. The Oscars miss constantly but at least they are a bona fide attempt by an industry to legitimize and promote itself; TGA is not that, it's just ads for individual products masquerading as an awards show run by one guy's particular preferences.

Class of 2022 here. I don’t know what is the most infuriating thing abt this article but this one stings me the most. You try so hard to get recognised in the industry which you kinda do and then it suddenly ceases to exist. What’s the point in the end? 🫠

I would love to see this show funded! Most audio dramas - including mine - are made on shoestring budgets.
Audio drama (in its current form) is a young industry: let's set a precedent for paying people well for their work, whilst it's in our hands to shape what this industry will grow into.

I do like it when serendipitous things happen. When an actual play podcast does an episode on a system I'm interested in and the players are the voice actors in the audio drama the system is based on. Merely Roleplayers and The Silt Verses.
