Blaine getting added to the ignore list wasn't something I saw coming.

Jessica's really attractive though. Like "Are you sure you two are blood-related..?" attractive.

Edit: fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Jessica_Edge you people

I remember some ass old photo where she was leaning on a car hood or something. That was daymn.

I remember seeing a lot more glamour pics like that, but alas, I didn't care enough about it at the time to save them.

On the upside, I did find these peak-Jessica pics from when she was in her early/mid-20s.

And in the aftermath, in all likelihood you get to deal with a libel lawsuit which would be pretty hard to dismiss.

It's not libel if true, and the burden of proof lies with the plaintiff. I don't need to be a legal expert to know (and confirm) that; it's very fundamental stuff.

In other words, they must prove that Chris has been spreading untruths in order to win a libel suit.

And that wouldn't be much of a problem, since in relation to Project Indiana, Chris is not much of an insider. He left the company years before Boyarsky joined and he is basically repeating watercooler gossip. Some of it is bound to be inaccurate, and that's assuming Feargus doesn't go all Tyrion Lannister and start leaking fake shit.

Joke: Roguey is a Josh Sawyer alt

Woke: IHaveHugeNick is a Darren Monahan alt

Bespoke: DarkUnderlord is a Feargus Urquhart alt

Fake news. I am actually Tom Cruise, so back the fuck off or you'll be dealing with Xenu.

Your head
Chris Avellone You mentioned your talks with Brian Fargo and your work on WL2, have you been in talks with Brian about WL3? Can you deny or confirm your involvement with the game or otherwise share any info?

/Cheers ! :)

Yes, I've been doing work on WL3, and my work incorporates some of the high-level design elements from Fallout: Van Buren (I say "some" because I proposed some elements, and then George made them better, so I feel he rightfully deserves the credit).

Also, not to gush too much, but working with George again is great, as always, he's a great lead, and I loved working with him on Mask of the Betrayer.


HOLY SHIT, now this is some great news!

Really? You chose not to answer anything I brought up, even the owners reaping rewards Indiana deserved and you being okay with that? C'mon, tinynickinyourmouth, you're better than that.

EDIT: Ah, fuck it, you're a shill. Done with you - keep supporting Feargus and shitting over the Indiana team, that's exactly the support they need to make a great RPG, you colossal fuck.

Chris Avellone Why are there so few science fiction RPGs in your opinion, compared the massive amount of fantasy, unike in other media like movies or prose fiction where its more equal. Also, any thematic genres you haven't worked in and would like. Stuff like Vince is doing with his generation ship, or maybe some Eclipse Phase-like posthuman horror?

Something I've been wondering, Chris Avellone if you'd like to share: do you think you have a book in you? You've a large body of work in the game industry that's for the most part been received very well. Now you're financially set, is there an inclination to set some time aside to write a novel; create your own world to tell stories in?

Is this some gigantic belated April fool's joke? Chris Avellone I know was never this rude! It was part of the charm.

Know what? Are you saying that The Outer Worlds is the title of Tim and Leonard's game, then? :cool:

Jesus Christ, Infinitron, can you give it a break for like, 5 seconds? NO. I am not saying that, I am recognizing what you posted so I could give a proper response that was in the proper context - and you're right, I don't know if it's the actual name of the game at all. Jesus Fucking H Christ, you drive me insane. Have they registered any other trademarks?

Chris is just a human like the rest of us. When he gets tired of other peoples bullshit, he calls it out. Working as intended.

Also, change your fucking avatar, you're not Chris Avellone, got it?
