what i want: an open world RPG set in dishonored universe.

pick your origin story: nobility, common, witch, gang member, heretic, overseer.

design your look. pick your class. pick your chaos alignment. pick your powers (if you choose to be marked ofc).

you’d have various side quests and a few main story line quests, maybe some assassinations to do. maybe not. maybe you just get to hang out with the outsider and the void whale.

you can ignore quests altogether and just set off exploring the isles + pandyssia, collecting runes and bonecharms along the way.

that’s a game i’d lose myself in for years.

Here’s the thing.

I read a lot of scripts.  A lot.  From professionals to aspiring writers to complete newbies.  Features and pilots.  Specs and treatments.

And 8 times out of 10 the fan fic that I’ve read over the last, oh, 15 years is leagues better than this stuff.  It’s more inspired.  It’s more compelling.  It’s genre bending and creative and heartfelt.  It’s well-paced and intense and funny and sexy and meaningful.  It’s smart and thoughtful and good.  It’s novel-quality.  Better than, sometimes.

Rare is the script I don’t want to put down, but how often have we stayed up until 3am to get to the last chapter of a 100k fic? And it’s not even a fan fic author’s day job.  This is what they do on the side.  In their spare time.  For free.

So my point is, fan fic authors, you’re good.  You’re good writers and great storytellers.  I know it doesn’t always feel like it, especially if you’re one of the authors who’s not a BNF and doesn’t get the notes/hits that a few do.  And  because some people still view fic as “not real writing.” You guys know the shit that gets made into movies.  You’re better than that.  So be better than that.  If writing is what you think want to do, then just know you’re already doing it.   You’ve already started.

And you’re more talented than you might think.

What people think writing is like: careful planning and thought out plotlines

What writing is actually like: being possessed by an idea that you are constantly arguing with

Gandalf, materialising in my conscience, smiling kindly: So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, besides the will of evil.

This is wonderfully helpful.

WHY MUST YALL TORTURE ME. But jokes on you someone explained it to me

Explained what, Bendy-straw Cabbagepatch?

Will y’all stop twisting Benjamill Cultureswatch’s name like that it’s disrespectful

shit you’re right. we should stop twisting bankrupt collarbone’s name. beepboop crickets deserves our respect and we are not giving it to him. reblog if you think the mutilation of poor babushka conundrum’s name needs to stop.
