>the writer of the greatest video game lore of all time is blacklisted from the industry and spends his days painting Warhammer figures and posting them on Reddit This actually fills me with dread. What's the point of it all
>>727725310>the writer of the greatest video game lore Conkers Bad Furs Day?
I love the intentional minimal context so that the subject of the conversation is completely undeterminable to anyone but OP
>>727725310Why would I feel bad for a guy who spends his days enjoying his hobbies?
>>727725310Tales of androgeny
>>727725997It's engagement bait, shit you'd see on Xitter.
>>727725997if you don't immediately know who this is you're unironically a newfag and need to leave
>>727726014Because 40K figures are so expensive he's going to burn through his entire retirement fund in like a year or so
Another day on 4chan vee where we glaze kirkbride for shameless ripping off Gloranthago play his latest magnum opus
kirkbride lore is just surface level gnosticism with a hint of surface level buddhism cool tank i wonder how he did the muzzle burn
>anon posts some obscure babble about greatest writer for vidya>figure probably MorrowindBride or Chris Avellone>it's KuntBride
>>727726236>>727725997>>727725764i assume for contrarian and bumpworthy purposes it's gonna be michael kirkbride. he's not blacklisted, mind you. he left bethesda like 20 years ago but doesnt give a shit about any universe but TES. they still contacted him for writing through oblivion and ESO.
>>727725310>blacklistedhe was the lead designer at telltale from game of thrones until they died and im pretty sure he was involved in that ubisoft breath of the wild.
>>727726639At least he isn't full MIA like Soule. Dude gets caught smelling like cum around some wide eyed foid and he loses his life amongst other things. Still shouldn't have ripped those faggots off with the kikestarter campaign. That was just pouring acid on the wound.
>>727726616>everyone sucks Chris Avellone's dick for NV>John Gonzalez actually wrote the entire fucking game by himself sans the intro cutscene and the battle of hoover dami'd get it if it was KotOR2 or even Fallout 2 but I will never understand why people praise Avellone as jesus for NV when he barely had anything to do with the writing. he wasnt even the lead designer.
>>727726310>dude he stole from some grognard boomer shit nobody heard about!!!!!
>>727727180That's not entirely right. Gonzalez wrote the main plot and much of the big hitting characters like House, Caeser, and Benny, but the writing for individual areas and companions was broken up between the team (which is why quality varies). Avellone wrote Cass and most of Dead Money and OWB. Gonzalez is still the person most responsible for NV being what it is.
>>727726310Esoteric fever dreams > products for the modern audiences
>>727727537>Avellone wrote Cass
>>727726825That fact that Soule just dropped off the face of the earth entirely the moment the accusations went public tells me they were probably legit.
>>727727625>this is Spear Chucker Cassidy's daughterWew
>>727727712>>727726825I do wonder about shit like that. I'm sure there are plenty of people who got MeToo'd, nothing was ever leveraged, but they all lost their jobs anyway just for the public image even if it was bullshit. For him, however, seeing as how he put up 0 fight for himself and just disappeared, it's probably true.
>>727726236>i only want my fellow cultists to reply so my opinions remain unchallenged
>>727725310When the fuck are we getting a Heresy vidya worth its salt?
>>727725310warhammertards are the eggnogs of the model painting community
>>727727874This, I'm completely over Warhammer 40k. Give me Warhammer 30k Great Crusade, Heresy and the Scouring.
>>727727537Avellone also wrote Lonesome Road. The sheer quality difference between DM, OWB, and LR is a kind of whiplash I just don't understand. DM is good writing. OWB is that classic Fallout 2 quirky Chris Avellone writing, that's his thing. Lonesome Road fucking sucks and asks the player to buy into the concept that there is a bunch of backstory you're now aware of and need to accept.>inb4 oh maybe ulysses is full of shit and insane and it doesnt infringe on player agencyThen it's fucking stupid to make us fight a final big bad that has nothing to do with anything we've ever done just as much as it would be stupid to fight one based on some trumped up charges of this thing we totally did that one time, you don't remember of course.
>>727727919/v/ee is the reddit of 4chan.
>>727727782Chris got methree'd and he still took the bitch to the cleaners a decade later. If that didn't give him a lesson on the life and times of modern living nothing will. Soule dissipating into the ether with no real explanation will always be a point of wonder. Since no one in their right mind will ever vouch for him outside his own brother. Bethesda already proved they will throw you under the bus if the optics line up as was the case with Mick Gordon.
>>727726310Already played it. It was 'aight.
>>727727874Around the same time when we get a 40k Battlefront ala neverever. At best you will get the Fag Angels in DoW4 with the appropriate amount of primass tongue bathing.
>>727728012>>727727537i think avellone just capitalized on social media to make everyone think he was in charge of new vegas whereas gonzalez left obsidian right after the game came out and doesnt have social media. if you do any digging you find out gonzalez is the man most responsible for new vegas as it is but people praise avellone cause he was there to answer questions.
>>727725310Why? Anyone would be blessed if they had the time and money to collect minis and share their paint jobs with the world, even if it's on r*ddit.
