Intro
I believe a record low 2 pages of blogposts this week. I attribute this fully to the fact that both WCouillard and WolfCoder have been busy with other things this week. However even in a low output week there were a couple of excellent blog posts. Personally I liked two that were all about nostalgia and looking back.

Oh and the blogs are from 15.3. to 21.3.

General Blogs
Deckiller is the first one to go into nostalgia mode with A Brief History of Carlsev Saga. We've all been there yet every story is different.

Dudesoft is not far behind with his Take Down: A History.

NewBlack shares a breakdown of his improved graphical skills over his time on rpgmaker.net. From RTP to a something that is weirdly without a face (something I keep telling him) but otherwise pretty awesome.

Marrend is unusually insightful in his two posts about foreshadowing and player vs character vs developer knowledge in Matsumori Days.

On the Dragon Warrior Tactics blog there's a post about keeping it simple (disguised as a post about Dragon Warrior Tactics of course)

Specific Blogs
NicoB continues his Forever's End character breakdown.

On the Visions & Voices: Revision blog we find some skillsets and something that has to do with nodes which I'm not entirely sure what it is but I'm sure the comments provide insight.

Sailerius provides comparison shots of his upcoming Vacant Sky Vol. 1: Contention Complete Edition (game names just get longer and longer).

Super RMN Bros 2 finally has its own gamepage so maybe I'll no longer need to look at those SRMNB Notices.

New Releases
Metal Gear Solid: Lunacy of Legion Update 1.8
Chrono Shift Demo

Outro
Another reason for the low blog output might also be the Valedictory Game Drive, everyone's working hard to release something(tm) before the thing ends. Once they have stuff to present I also bet there'll be blog posts about the progress. (insider sources also tell me that there'll be an Award for Insightfulness and Excellence in Blog Posting)

This is great and I really like the idea for the award. Perhaps providing some pointers as to what good blogs are all about might also be something to talk about in the future.

Looking forward to week 12.

Indeed. While we're all scrambling on adding things to the battle system, I have also been distracted here and there by Homefront (multiplayer in this game is REALLY fun).

Personally, I believe that the developer versus player versus character knowledge blog is the more insightful of the two that are listed here. But if something can be gleaned from the foreshadowing one, that's fine too!

Sometimes, sometimes, I know what I'm doing.
I linked to both of them because I thought they basically played off each other.
shh! don't reveal that the game drive is just a rebranded Release Something!
