T w e n t y S i d e d
I’m fine. I don’t have the COVID, or even the flu. According to my doctor I just have one of the bazillion mystery viruses out there they don’t even test for. Unfortunately, the lungs I have been given by the universe used my dad as a template. For some reason, despite the fact my father was the poster child of perfect health, my lungs seem to forget how to take in air appropriately. If doctors are to be trusted, apparently breathing is actually an important function to living. I’d be great in a wheeze-orientated jazz band, if that’s a niche anyone ever jumps on, though, so who’s winning now, doc?
In all seriousness, I’ll be fine. I’ve just got to hang out within reach of a breathing treatment for awhile. Hopefully, barring natural disaster, I’ll be back to my Sims series next week.
The Dumbest Cutscene
This is it. This is the dumbest cutscene ever created for a AAA game. It's so bad it's simultaneously hilarious and painful. This is "The Room" of video game cutscenes.
Why I Hated Resident Evil 4
Ever wonder how seemingly sane people can hate popular games? It can happen!
Tenpenny Tower
Bethesda felt the need to jam a morality system into Fallout 3, and they blew it. Good and evil make no sense and the moral compass points sideways.
Pixel City Dev Blog
An attempt to make a good looking cityscape with nothing but simple tricks and a few rectangles of light.
id Software Coding Style
When the source code for Doom 3 was released, we got a look at some of the style conventions used by the developers. Here I analyze this style and explain what it all means.
Sadly, Wheezecore never caught on.
Who knows what the future may bring?
In all seriousness, get well. I may not interact much, but I kind of need all of you at Twenty Sided doing your things. It makes me hate everything a lot less and that is probably a good thing.
I came for the Shamus lo these many years ago. I stay for all of you, so please try to get (and stay) healthy.
Well said. All the overthinking, microanalysis, geeky problem solving woven together with some good narrative is still here.
Looking forward to the next installment!
Like, seriously, I really like this series.
You get sick right as your Sims series hits 2020…
Coincidence?
But get well soon!
Get better soon! I appreciate your content.
Maybe you are developing a late allergy? I’m not an expert but that’s what happened to me, now I’m on corticosteroids…
To be honest I’m much better know, I used a nebulizer every day… now I only need to do it on a very BAD day.
Hope you get better
