It lives... AGAIN!
You should have taken longer, so I could keep my promise of having pretty, workable, game-pagey things to show off!
I'll just have to pretend I didn't see the update and lurk until then

Unsure if this is really an "issue" as such, but I have noticed that after having logged in on the re-upped site (with the www in front, which Liberty made a point of saying was now necessary on the Discord announcement), I can still access the site via the old url without the www, where I am not currently logged in.
Just thought I'd point it out, since I'm not entirely sure if its intentional or expected.

The long era of darkness comes to an end... Now is the era of slowness where we all bully the site with traffic for a while.
Sacrificing downloads hosted on the site itself was one of the many options people had been suggesting in the Discord so it doesn't surprise me that it had to be done. It seems like more of a relic now that hosting elsewhere is so easy anyways.

A.I. Generation and RMN

Plus, this is a little bit of the nature of game development communities overall. We're mostly introverted, a large portion of us being neurodivergent and investing little time into sociabilities by virtue of our creative pursuit (that's all me btw) so yeah. BTW RMN, thank you for all the dang sweet memories. You guys rock.
Having gone to a school for game design, with prospective devs, being taught by people working in the industry and living with a person who wanted to make games like myself, I can say that yeah. Pretty much all of them were at least semi-introverted sarcastic assholes on some level. You just had to find it.
I can't speak to the entirety of it but in my memory this site seems basically chill as hell compared to how things used to be 5 or 10 years ago. I'd tell people to come here if they were making RM games or whatever (if I knew any that weren't here already), but I think I'd assume that at that point they'd already be aware of what they were going to be getting into.
Besides, I see new people in the Discord every month or two and they're always treated well when they're not going out of their way to be a problem. So. ???
Goaling It 2024
This is the first year in a long time I bothered having any goals or "resolutions" specifically. Mostly because they're more like general reminders of things I wanted to do, but were being held back because of my alcohol addiction. Now that I'm sober I can actually work towards doing some of it:
1.Stay Sober (that's pretty important)
2.Read more books
3.Watch at least a FEW more movies than usual
4.Get some actual gamedev done for once
5.Keep losing weight (kind of a double with #1 for obvious reasons)
They may seem a little silly, but I mean, I collect movies and have tons of books I've been meaning to get around to, and not to mention game(s) I SHOULD be actually working on since its important to me personally, but just ignored all of that in favour of slurping down poison every day for the last few years.
I think also the books and movies are kind of important to getting myself running again with the gamedev. It's all like learning how to actually be inspired again, or to break things down and understand them again, or something. Maybe just to enjoy things again.
2024 is basically about just figuring out how to be a real person with goals and experiences again, at least ones that don't revolve around the the next bottle of liquor. It's been hard to figure out but I feel better about it more and more over time, like I'm getting it again in small bursts.

Best RM series to play all the way through?
Darken
The Way
I'd have to second this if only because it's the only RM series I've played the entirety of. That was ages and ages ago but I remember it being very good.
I should check it out again tbh.
2023 Gaming Diary
Playing the newly released Dragon Quest+ by our very own Ljink and loving every bit of it so far.
Also picked up JJBA: The 7th Stand User. I guess Ljink is getting me around to cracking open some RM stuff finally.
Playing Fallout New Vegas for the billionth time too, but there's nothing to say about that.
