Welcome back to ‘Max Plays’, a gaming segment where I play through a story-focused video game and examine the way that it builds a narrative. This game is something special to me— Harebrained Schemes’s revival of one of my favorite pen & paper RPGs: Shadowrun Returns! In this game we take the role of a character amidst a world where magic and technology exist in the far future of OUR world!

[IN TIME - Writing/Study Mix] is a compilation of my all-time favorite Chrono Trigger remixes. From chill-out to smooth jazz, to electronic and acoustic, the tracks on this mix manage to take the emotion of a classic soundtrack and give it a second chance— rewinding the clock so that you can enjoy them as though for the first time~

First Regret of the Day
Write a scene where your Antagonist wakes up with a terrible headache… and in someone else’s bed. How do they react to this? And, above all, what do they do when a rather attractive person walks into the room and gets in bed with them?

(Re)Volver
Write about a character who happens to be the owner of an odd weapon: a gun that fires bullets that cannot harm the body, but instead cause permanent damage to the soul. Who created this weapon? How did this character find it? And, above all, what would this character do if they realized that they are not the only one with access to a weapon with the same odd properties?

#362
The main idea behind your book is important, but not ultimate. Never forget that what matters most is how you tell the story.

Welcome back to ‘Max Plays’, a gaming segment where I play through a story-focused video game and examine the way that it builds a narrative. This time around I am playing through a big one! None other than Square’s finest: Final Fantasy IX. In this game we take the role of a ragtag party of characters, and partake in a story that at first appears to be about war between two great nations— but there’s...
