Just to be clear, I love everyone Podima posted:I'm speaking for myself here and not with my Mod Hat on - peramene has put a TON of time and effort into prepping for this game (flavor included), and will put a ton more into the actual running of the game. If you come in with a plan to just shitpost and gently caress around with blatant off-flavor stuff, you're doing her and the other players a disservice. I don't recommend going down that route! ...even Podima.  One of my favorite aspects of Myst (borrowed from other FRGs) that I'm pretty sure will be back in Riven was the encouragement to write out confessionals to document what we/our characters were thinking throughout the game. This process helped get me immersed in the game, and it made the post-game process like a million times funner because I got to see what other people were doing/thinking outside of my own sphere of knowledge. Reading the confessionals for me, even a year later, is like reading a good fiction book, except that I was in it. For those who were in FS/N mafia: quote:me (re: Pod) - I can't tell people how to live their lives, but I can say that this game will probably be a ton funner if you let yourself get sucked in.

Prince of Space posted:Didn't the win condition of the original Myst game involve rejecting the false binary of the blue and red brothers and picking the green guy instead - their father? I never got that far in the original, to be honest. In Riven, I remember zooming in really close on this huge micro/telescope and destroying the universe. That and some scary tusked whalesharks... Hi prince! Love your new avatar.

GeneX posted:Lea hasn't acknowledged my desire to drop the journal off in her hands. Though I'm loathe to do it — because I think you're a rather miserable person — it might be best to just give it to you so you can make some sense of the more technical observations within. Should I run into you, it's yours to hold on to, if you'd like. I apologize - I had lost track of things and forgotten to reply to this (i've been asleep). I would like to be able to read that journal and would appreciate it if you could get it to me somehow. And if you could please lay off needling my sister? I know I can't force you to stop, but I'd appreciate it if you would?  GulagDolls posted:what is a wish you desire, that i can grant A linking book to Sa?

GeneX posted:Are you physically present on this Age, or is delivering the journal pretty much equivalent to, well, getting you out of whereever you are? I'm physically present on this Age. I want to tell you where I'm going to be, but right now I'm concerned about your ability to co-exist around my sister, which kind of complicates things. I really wish I could just trust you by default, but you've probably read about how that's turned out for me in the past.

There needs to be a degree of transparency across the isles, so that we all know what we should each be doing in these increasingly dangerous times. I'm at the forge with my sister! For what it's worth - you seem very nice and my gut says I can trust you, but I've been burned in the past and it's hard to forget that. I apologize if I seem standoffish, that's not my intent. 50 pounds of bread posted:Can you blame them with all of the open secrecy the strangers have shown? I don't blame saya and her crew following harsha to 233. We are all from riven, you are not, we dont know the strangers intentions. The secrecy you shove right in our faces makes it easy to distrust. I am here in an attempt to find a way to save or safely evacuate the people of Riven, and I mean no one here any harm.
