  • Hey regarding your stories 'The Arena' or 'Experience Matters' was there a cyoa outline for the choices you were making or did you come up with those on your own? If there is an outline could you share it? Will you be continuing either story?

    I came up with those on my own, though The Arena was inspired by 5th edition D&D mechanics.

    Experience Matters' entire system was made up on the fly and held together with gum and shoestring. What you see in the Quest Thread is basically everything, I had zero private notes for that one.

    But no, those two quests are very much dead.

    This is a long shot but stumbled onto 'Quoth the Raven and I'm desperate for more. Any chance you currently do commissions?
    Cambrian
    Cambrian
    Unfortunately not taking any new commissions at the moment. Also don't usually let people continue other people's commissions so even if I was taking new commissions, you'd probably be out of luck on the Quoth the Raven front.

    I'm writing male protagonist in my new free write. It's an Original Fantasy novel called 'The Soul Engine' :D

    Took some inspiration from BG3 for this story, plus inspiration from a bunch of other settings as well. Should be fun and I hope people like it lol...

    Larian will probably patch BG3 for a year and a half, and it'll be really good by then...

    It's just the things SF promises are the same thing Star Citizen promises, and, well, Star Citizen Star Citizens.

    Maybe it's part of experiencing too many disappointments, but it's so hard to be hopeful for this kind of thing. Like, I'm at the point like if it were to also include a pay to spin gacha for harem girls, I'd be more hopeful for SF than less

    not to knock Skyrim, but it wasn't the devs who made it what it is but the community

    Maybe you're right. I just don't want to believe lol. Potential is a rarely fulfilled thing in the games industry. It never just appears out of nowhere... but no one believes in games if they show an ugly side in early access.

    Seriously, this hobby is just

    Like, it'd be something special to take part in the later parts of the drizzt stories, especially the one where menzoberranzan siege that dwarf fortress, but with more factions involved, with more motives and interests, and a lot of stuff happening in the background, and a lot more sexy companions
    d.fish
    They should do a crpg that lets you go visit menzoberranzan, mithril hall, icewind dale o wait, there is an icewind dale one and it's kind too old

    I finally figured out how to have my cake and eat it too; have Minthara and still slaught the goblin children, that is. Have to spawn in an Act 2 Minthara in Act 1 and make her go to my camp, this flags her as a companion, and thus revivable, and then I agree with Halsin to slaught the goblins, kill her btw, and then revive her. Perfect ending, right?

    Actually, what happened to me is that Minthara stands next to Karlach. I think they purposefully fixed this so that you could do both, or rather, whoever is second kind of just has to stand in the middle of the camp

    Huh, interesting

    Yeah I noticed Alfira standing next to Karlach for the night before I murdered her

    I did remember seeing Alfira stand next to Karlach, but only in the cinematic of her coming in, because right afterwards, she mysteriously died and splattered me with her blood.

    I'm a be straightforward with ya chief, some guy by the name of Midnight_Secrets https://www.webnovel.com/profile/4324270043?appId=10, has stolen one of your novels called 'All of Eternity at my Fingertips' renaming it 'Originals A New Legend.' Apparently, this guy has stolen other novels/fanfics from other people while using patreon to get money off your books.

    You know, compared to isekai as a dragon in a song of ice and fire, the isekai as a dragon in dungeons and dragons would probably be more fun

    Alternatively, the second option is to go to QQ's search bar and do an advanced search. Look up the title of a particular long-form story of mine there, and then put "Cambrian" in under the "Posted by Member" option.

    You can also use this to search up fandoms of mine. Put in Naruto, or Harry Potter, or any other fandom you know I've written for and then put my username under "Posted by Member" and all those works will come up.

    Yeah, I'm kind of annoyed that my previous saves broke. So I might take a break from this game for a while before going back... especially since I've already played through Act 1 several times in EA
    Cambrian
    Cambrian
    I was very smart about that. I know about my issues with replaying shit, so I just didn't touch EA except for the first 3 hour session I did with friends back in 2021. I'm glad I did that, because I really did enjoy my first playthrough quite a lot.

    But now I'm thinking I need to set the game down and wait a year to be able to really enjoy a Durge playthrough

    I like making new characters, but I hate doing the same chores over and over again

    but honestly, BG3 isn't as bad as, say, all MMOs, in how repetitive the shit quests become, like at least each one encounter feels meaningful, you know? Can't forget the hag, can't forget going down into the underdark, etc. etc.
    d.fish
    I think there's one aspect I wish I could explore more, and that's the necromancy stuff. Like, it'd be so nice to just have an undead horde following you, but you know, you're limited on what kinda zombies n shit you can have, sad

    It's not fair that even after you have stuff that make you resist or immune fire, you can't just immediately start a convo with the devil girl to fucgg

    The funny thing is, I was too fast to murder Karga in the Druid Grove, sparking the Druid/Tiefling War and leading to Alfira's death in that battle. So I didn't even get to kill Alfira in her sleep, I got some shitty random dragonborn bitch as a placeholder instead, lmao.

    Meh, I'll probably just take this Dark Urge playthrough a little slower tbh. A couple hours a night instead of 10-12 hours a day like I did my first playthrough.

    Haven't even gotten to the goblin camp and Minthara yet, but just not feeling like playing more tonight lol

    To be honest, I think with the dark urge you're supposed to start off fighting against the urge and then slowly give in, or something. But then again, idk, some people don't like that kind of murderhobo in their horni game

    The druids did nothing wrong, but they are annoying af... the tieflings were in the wrong, but they aren't utterly worthless like the druids.

    Untabletop things... I actually never knew you could throw potions for ranged, aoe heals. Neat. Also, I used to focus on picking up fire barrels in the other larian game, but now I have to also stock up on crates and candles if I wanna play hard mode... also, it's so weird that merchant inventories are aligned with your level.

    Yeah also if you put a healing potion on the ground and attack it, it explodes for an even bigger AOE heal.

    It's just, you know, Halsin gets to bulldoze over goblin children while in bear form just because they tossed some rocks at him, but when the tiefling kids do similar things to annoy me, I can't toss a fireball back at them? They just walk around invincible. I mean, look, I get not killing human kids in vidya because ESRB, but foulbloods are just like greenskins, don't get human rights. They aren't human, after all.
