โItโs a couple of things that work beautifully in concert. First: no music. Audiences are so sophisticated, but what theyโre not accustomed to is not being told how to feel,โ Wyle says. โYou take all that out and it forces a level of engagement where youโre now looking for clues within the frame of the screen, which forces you to look up from your phone. And I think that is extremely engaging, especially to young viewers who arenโt accustomed to being asked to participate in a nonpassive way in the viewing experience.
![โSecond point, shooting it with almost exclusively 50-millimeter or 65-millimeter lenses, which is the most comparable to the human eyeโand only shooting from the point of view of a human being thatโs present in this space. There are no cameras on gurney wheels going in the hallway. Thereโs no cameras on the ceiling looking down from a God point of view. You are limited to the perspective of a participant. You can look away, but you canโt leave, and it becomes an endurance test for you to stay on your feet as long as weโre on our feet. Which [brings me to my] third point: real time. Real time has an aggregate sense of tension that you donโt get in any other form of storytelling. What happened before is happening now, and these two things are going to add up to the next thing. And if we throw more ingredients into this cooker and keep ratcheting it up, itโs going to pop.โ](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:guthikarwozoldkzhueivkl6/bafkreihklvhtymho7wpemo5mj2f7xaiq6ulvfvcwnzo6hjstg3wixzgesy)

Wyle makes eye contact for his next point, delivering it with a Robby-esque matter-of-factness. โFourth point: The election went the other way,โ he says with a shrug. โWe could have been a really good show with a lot of nice things to say in a perfectly normal Kamala Harris universe. And instead we became almost a beacon of hope and humanity in an alternative universe. But in the midst of that, fifth pointโthis is essentially competence porn. Youโre watching really smart, dedicated people do what only they know how to do at a level that you donโt know how to do it, and youโre so fucking glad that theyโre there doing it, and compartmentalizing their own stuff to put your broken pieces back together. Youโre so reassured by knowing that there are people out there that laugh and joke and have the ability to lock in like that.โ
this is fucking unreal stuff from Noah Wyle on the magic of The Pitt. www.gq.com/story/noah-w...

The amount of joy people at and around NASA are openly expressing is a real balm right now.
#indiettrpg I have a Discord server for my indie works but I want to shut it down; I'm not using it enough, and it draws scammers. People who want to follow my work to do so in other ways.
What other ways would you recommend? Is there a specific newsletter platform you would suggest, for example?

"The magic this book captures is to deliver the essence of these two worlds. That of fun and connection with friends in the real world and all the beauty to be found there, as well as the beauty of fantasy storytelling as escapism and a moralistic mirror."
Thank you so much @comicbooknews.co.uk!!

I DID CHARACTER ART FOR A SEASON OF DIMENSION 20!!!

This has been a literal dream job, on an incredible season. I'm SO excited for y'all to see it unfold ๐ฆ
Castle Whiterock is one of very few megadungeon I have seriously considered running, and I'm looking forward to the DCCRPG version.
(to disclaim, I worked on various GG products from the past few years, but have not contributed to this one)

@avivor.com was doing the Comics Promoting Stuff, and so we landed on the bigbig comic con of the UK:
![[ Some spoilers for Outer Wilds and its DLC Echoes of The Eye in the artwork and in the description below ]
A vertical, mostly symmetrical illustration showing three characters. At the bottom and brightest is a Hearthian (a light blue skinned alien with 2 sets of eyes and big ears that stretch sideways) wearing a red beanie hat and looking up in wonder with stars in their eyes. Behind and above them and in darker shades is a Nomai, wearing their intricate geometrical helmet and holding a communication sceptre in their left hand. And towards the top, darker and bluer still, is one of the Stranger's antlered inhabitants (one antler broken), holding a vision torch in their right hand. The background behind them is a dark sky with a few stars scattered on concentric circles, and a faint symbol of The Eye of The Universe right behind the top figure's head.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:i5zpjviqa5wf3nqerpelovpu/bafkreiecrjxolr2e6csnbeq2ckhhzpkqvjd4yjq7svpslpr32tnkooipuq)

I should do this more, because whenever I post about #CrystalHeart, someone hears about it for the 1st time. So:
Crystal Heart is a TTRPG Actual Play in comic form! 300+ pages packed full of story and roleplay shenanigans, available wherever comics are sold:
www.uptofourplayers.com/crystal-hear...
A screenshot from itch.io dashboard showing views over the past two weeks. It jumps from around 30 per day on average to 80+ per day in the last two days.
I cannot stress enough how important it is that you recommend indie TTRPGs you like online. Someone on Reddit asked for a game rec, only like 3 out of 20 people said my game, but it made for a massive wave of visits to the Itch page. Word of mouth is real.

๐จ It looks like the UK government is gearing up to upend copyright law in favour of AI companies, legalising the theft of their work.
This is despite creatives' huge protests, and despite previous proposals being roundly rejected by the public.
Please spread the word.
