Rose and the Troupe start exploring the Amnian border to see what they can find. After some chance encounters in the Fire Leaf Forest, the Troupe continue westward toward the Sword Coast. Towards a village Aegon visited once before. A village full of small blue humanoids.
Bok McDonagh
I am Bok, a British-born expat living in China. I was born in Lancashire but identify as a 'plassie-Scouser'. I spent my youth growing up in Cumbria. Here I developed a great taste for exploration, climbing mountains and camping in the wilderness - a taste for travel that has defined my life.
Hiking to the Top of Koh Tao
I had to do at least one hike in Koh Tao. We decide to pick a route that would take us to the top of the island.
Finally Playing Borderlands 2
When I first moved to China I was working for 2K Games China. The project was to be Borderlands Online, but it was unfortunately cancelled before release. Despite this, I never got around to playing Borderlands 2. I played the first game, but never the second.
The Lepidopterist Villager
Last week I added the Butterfly Breeder. This week I used the new block as a job block to create a new villager: the Lepidopterist. This villager will give access to trades around butterflies, giving players a new method of finding new species.
Thoughts and Feelings on Flowers
I’ve always had an interesting relationship with flowers. It’s not to say I don’t like them, but I’ve always had difficulty grasping a lot of the customs and rituals around flowers. Why do people buy them and place them in vases only so they can die.
Detour to Fire Leaf Forest
Back in Nashkel once again, Verr’Sza and the others, even Gorion’s old friends are starting to look up to him as a leader. After clearing out the mines and defeating the leaders of the bandit camp, the Troupe needs to decide their next move.
Too Late to Build a Sandcastle?
Sometimes we assume that parts of our childhood are universal, that everyone has experienced. It’s easy to forget that things that seem so normal to you aren’t normal to you. To not realise that some parts of your childhood have not been experienced by others around the world.
The Banner Saga: A Story of War
The Banner Saga is part tactical combat game, part interactive story. It’s a game that absorbs you into an entirely new fantasy world. It’s a story of heroes, but also one of survival, as you also will need to maintain your supplies and the people that follow you.
A New Way to Feed Butterflies
The next step in the butterflies mod is to integrate them with villagers. Before I can do that they need a job block of some kind. So I’ve created a block that can help feed and breed butterflies. Later, we can use this block to create butterfly related villagers.
The Deadly Money Collectors
I dropped out of business studies in high school. When we were taught about inflation I got increasingly frustrated when I could get a simple answer to “why do prices need to rise?” I was told that “they just do for a healthy economy”, but I still couldn’t understand why.
