Hi there! Sorry if I'm late but I have some GTA V asks, just in case you'd like to answer some ꒰⁠⑅⁠ᵕ⁠༚⁠ᵕ⁠꒱⁠˖⁠♡

💡🧠❤️🐶

Hello! and no it's quite alright, Sorry for the late response, just been busy lately but I have time now so I'll be more than happy to answer your questions. ❤️

💡What is an easter egg in the game that I find funny or interesting...

The Bigfoot one. I just find it funny how there's a grown man in a suit dressing and running around as the Bigfoot and when he talks to Franklin it's just so funny. Even more funny when it's revealed he's not the real Bigfoot, the real Bigfoot is actually in the woods during the predator mission. I sniped him by accident thinking he was a O'neill brother, only to realise afterwards. But yes the bigfoot easter egg is the one I find funniest.

🧠 What is something I wish the game had more of or had done differently?

Hmmmm hard to say as GTA 5 is such a great game I find it hard to find a flaw in it, but if I had to think of something I would say more map markers, especially when it came to the Strangers and Freaks missions such as the UFO pieces, the bounty hits, Leonora's letters and Abigail's dead husband. So many of the Strangers and Freaks missions didn't have the map markers of the clues marking where they were. I know some people don't mind this and like a challenge, but this really bothered me.

When I play a game, I want to have fun as a form of down time and relaxation, I don't want to get frustrated or stressed having to find the location myself when the game could of marked it out for me like they do in so many other open world games. Even looking at the game guide it is still tricky to find the actual location in the map. That's the only thing they could of done differently was that one in my opinon. Other than that it's a perfect game.

❤️ What is your favourite GTA V ship?

Call me a Crack shipper for this one but it's got to be Tracey and Franklin. I know not many people ship F and Tracey here but outside Tumblr I've seen quite a few fans who have in the world of fanfiction and even fan made edits and videos on Youtube. I don't know something about the idea of Tracey and Franklin dating just appeals to me.

I don't mind other ships though. I'm very chill when it comes to other ships. I'm a Ship and Let Ship person so long as it doesn't involve pedophilia or blood related family members I'm not really going to say anything. You do what you want as long as it makes you happy. My other close favourites in the fandom would be Framar (Franklin/Lamar) and Trikey.

🐶 Do I ever play with Chop when playing as Franklin?

Of course! I love Chop, I always have done. I take him out in the car with me whenever I go out around Los Santos and Sandy Shores, I love him. He's even protected me in game when several construction men started on me around Route 68 (Where the dinosaur diner is). I didn't even need to get my gun out because Chop had already handled them for me (He bit them for me). I also take him on walks with me sometimes and played fetch with him too. So yes I do play with Chop while using Franklin.

Thank you so much for sending in the ask! I really enjoyed answering these Q's too. Sorry for the long essay, but thanks for sending it in. It's never too late to send in an ask. My ask box is always open. I'm more than happy to answer any questions, particuarly when it's about GTA 5 I'm more than happy to do so!

"Ready, Player Two?" - Modern!Aegon Targaryen x Stepsister!Reader

a/n: a late bday present for @ripdragonbeans as this is her request plus my bday anon, i did manage to get it out on your bday lol! ❤️

Part 1 HERE, can also be read as a standalone.

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the House of The Dragon/Fire & Blood characters nor do I claim to own them. I do not own any of the images used nor do I claim to own them.

Comments, likes, and reblogs are never required but are immensely appreciated ❤️

After your and Aegon’s little 1 v 1, to say that the atmosphere between the two of you is charged is an understatement. Even Aemond comments on it, asking what the fuck happened. You ignore his query and continue going about your business. Said business being teasing Aegon at every given opportunity. You wear your skimpiest clothes around him, taking every opportunity to brush up against him, bend over around him.

You know he has it in him, to stop being a pussy and just fucking do something. And you’re going to keep at it until he finally fucking does it.

Your little game of cat and mouse goes on for a few weeks and you’re slowly losing steam. The stupid asshole hasn’t come crawling to you like you’d hoped. You know you absolutely rocked his world last time and he’s just doing this to be a dick. So, you take matters into your own hands and order yourself a new vibe, a rose toy. Your friends have all been ranting and raving about it, so you figure why not get one and try it out?

The day it comes in, you’re barely able to hold in your squeal of delight at the cute packaging. It’s one of those discreet rose-shaped ones and you can’t wait to get back to your room and use it. You bump into Aegon in the hallway, and of course, he gives you that dumb lazy smirk of his, eyeing you up and down, his gaming headphones still on, in those stupid gray sweats.

He moves his headphones off and questions, his voice low and husky since he’s probably only woken up an hour or so ago, the lazy piece of shit, “Order something?”

“None of your business, dickhead,” you chirp, strutting off toward your room, feeling those lavender eyes following you all the way.

You get into your room, and in your haste to rip open your new purchase, you don’t bother locking the door as you normally would. Aegon’s busy playing GTA or Call of Duty or something you can’t be assed to care about right now, he’s not going to hear a thing. He’s not going to come looking for you.

Famous last words.

Aegon knows with how cheery you are that there’s something about your delivery. And he’s determined to find out. He ditches his headphones on the kitchen counter and, after grabbing a quick snack, he walks down the hall toward your room. He cracks the door open, ever so slightly, and is entirely delighted by the sight in front of him.

There you are on your bed, your legs spread apart, panties slid down to your thighs, pressing one of those cute little rose-shaped vibrators to your pussy. Your face is twisted in pleasure as you tease yourself, your free hand groping at your chest. And gods, you’re letting out the prettiest fucking sounds he’s ever heard. He palms himself over the fabric of his sweats, of course not having bothered to wear any underwear, as he watches you writhe against the bed.

After a few minutes more of watching you, he lets out a low whistle, and your head snaps up to see him, leaning against the doorway, thoroughly enjoying the private show you’re putting on. He flashes you a cheeky little wink, grinning widely.

“What the fuck are you doing, you perv?” you shriek, tossing a pillow at him, immediately covering yourself up.

Aegon snickers, ducking to avoid the pillow, never once taking his eyes off you, “You’re the one who fuckin’ left the door open. It’s almost like you wanted me to see.”

He sidles up to you, snatching the vibe out of your hand, earning an annoyed huff from you, “Hey, give that back, you dick!”

“What in the world could this be for?” he smirks, wagging his eyebrows at you, holding the little toy in front of his face, pretending to examine it.

“Don’t be such an asshole,” you grumble, trying to snatch it back, “I’ve had a fucking stressful ass day-”

“Aw,” Aegon coos, ignoring your protests as he crawls on top of you, “Do you need some help relaxing, baby?”

Remembering your last encounter, when the tables were turned, you glare up at him, “Oh, fuck off, you fucking-”

Aegon presses two fingers to your lips, shushing you, “Daddy doesn’t like it when you talk back like that, baby girl.”

You try to ignore it, the heat pooling in your stomach at this new, dominant side that Aegon is showing you. You try to ignore how sexy he looks, staring down at you, that little edge to his voice that dares you not to do what he wants. You gasp as he pushes his fingers between your lips, speaking only one word, a command, really.

“Suck.”

You close your lips around his fingers, gazing up at him, imitating exactly what it is you want to do to his cock right now, your tongue circling his digits, hollowing your cheeks as you stare up at him with hooded eyes. Aegon feels his pants grow tighter as he watches you, your pretty plush lips wrapped around him.

“Fuck, such a perfect little mouth,” he groans, removing his fingers from your mouth.

You watch greedily as Aegon lowers his pants, revealing his cock to you, already hard as he gives it a quick tug. He stares at you expectantly, waiting for you to give him what he wants. What he needs. You smirk up at him, laying down on your stomach, your hands grasping at his thighs as you give a few kitten licks at his tip, making him moan your name, a low, guttural sound. You then move to mouth at his balls, smirking to yourself at the way his muscles quiver beneath your hands, before moving back to take his cock fully into your mouth. You work the base of his cock with one of your hands, the other fondling his balls as you continue bobbing your head up and down on him, taking him as far into your mouth as you possibly can, so that he nearly hits the back of your throat.

“Gods, your mouth feels almost as good as your pussy,” he groans, his hand tangling in your hair as he holds you in place, fucking your mouth, “Fucking hell, gonna cum, baby, you gonna swallow it for me?”

You gaze up at him, your eyes watering ever so slightly, making you look all the more desirable to him. You keep eye contact with him until he throws his head back, cumming on your tongue. You pull off of Aegon’s cock with a lewd popping noise, swallowing his spend. You lick your lips and stare at him, a challenging look in your eyes, as if asking him what’s next.

Aegon gives you a wicked grin, grabbing your discarded vibe and turning it on. You narrow your eyes at him, not sure where he’s going with this. He turns you over onto your back, hovering over you, lowering your panties yet again, greedily eyeing your pussy, already glistening with evidence of your arousal. He presses the toy to your clit, watching as you throw your head back against your pillow, grasping at your sheets, desperate to find some form of purchase, something to ground you. And gods, it just gets worse when he adds his tongue to the mix, with that stupid fucking piercing. You feel him, lapping at your folds, your vibe pulsing against your clit, all of it being nearly too much for you to handle. Your climax is hurtling toward you fast, but Aegon is not about to let you have it that easy. He pulls away completely, smirking at the pitiful whine you let out.

He waits a moment before turning up the setting on the toy and pressing it to you again, and you realize he’s put it at its highest setting. And yet again, he brings you close to the edge, watching you writhe with pleasure on the bed, the sight driving him almost made with desire as he feels himself growing hard once again. He watches you cup your own tits, move your hands to your hair, tugging slightly, tears pricking at the corners of your eyes, but all he does is move the vibe away from you when he feels like you’re getting too comfortable.

“Aegon, please,” you whine, “Just let me come!”

“Nah, let’s go with a different name, baby. Let’s go with,” he leans in and whispers in your ear, “Daddy. Huh? You gonna be a good girl for Daddy? You gonna beg to come all over his cock? Beg him to fill that tight little pussy up?”

Part of you wonders if this is payback for making him call you Mommy. But fuck if you care. All you can think about right now is feeling him inside you, finally getting to achieve the release you’ve been chasing after all afternoon.

“Please, Daddy,” you look up at him with pleading eyes, “Your baby girl needs you to fuck her. Begging you, Daddy.”

A dirty little smirk spreads across his face as he moves between your hips, spreading your legs apart, “That’s what I like to hear.

Aegon sheathes himself fully inside you with one swift thrust, filling you to the brim in a way that has you almost gasping with how on edge you already are. He wastes no time in fucking you, pinning your wrists to the bed as his hips move against you, pulling all the way out and slamming back in. He’s fucking you raw and you feel every ridge, every vein of his girthy cock, feel it stretching you out in the most delicious of ways.

“Fuck, Daddy, feels so good,” you moan, your toes curling with pleasure, feeling the coil in your stomach beginning to wind yet again, “Fuck, fuck, oh my gods…”

“You like that, huh? You like when I fuck you like a little slut?” he groans, moving to hold your hips in place, releasing your hands and allowing you to thread them in his hair, “Gods, you’re so fucking tight, squeezing my dick like a fucking vice. Such a perfect little pussy. Been thinking of fucking you again for weeks, you know that? All that teasing drove me fucking insane.”

You feel your orgasm building and this time, Aegon allows it to happen, feeling you squeezing around him, so warm and wet and tight that he almost cums himself, but he quickly pulls out and turns you over so that you’re on all fours. He fucks you at this new angle, his balls slapping against your ass with every thrust, one hand in your hair, the other holding your hips in place as he pounds into you.

“Scream my name, baby girl, tell Daddy who’s making you feel this good.”

“You are, Daddy, fuck,” you cry out as his hand that was on your hip moves to your pussy, rubbing at your clit, still oversensitized from his earlier teasing, “Can’t take it anymore, it’s too much-”

“Just a little more, baby,” he coos, his hips stuttering against your own as he feels you tightening around him again, “Fuck, I’m gonna cum, gonna cum inside you baby, you want that, don’t you? I know you do.”

“Yes,” you nearly sob, burying your face in your pillow as you reach your second peak.

With one last thrust, Aegon spills himself deep inside you, pulling out after a moment, admiring the sight of his cum leaking from your cunt. He chuckles, going to grab a towel to clean you off, coming back a moment later, those stupid sweatpants back on as you lie there, staring up at the ceiling, wondering why the fuck you waited so long to do this again.

Los Santos - Progress Report 2022 - Part 4b: Back on track talking about roads

Okay now again...

This is a pretty in depth, technical and passionate talk about road textures I guess

During last years work on Los Santos (which was mainly september... Okay actually I think it was only september. But hey I haven’t made that much progress in any other year!) I replaced some road textures and reworked some road layouts that already existed. When a project is stretched out in such a long time window (2016-now) you not only work in one direction (from start to finish) but you also occasionally completely rework stuff from before. In all these years from 2016 this has been the only CAW project I’ve worked on. With every year I’m learning new quirks and tricks about the game and caw.

Now this is the point where I diverge from Part 4a

My issue with the previous roads is that they were compelety random textures grabbed from everywhere (GTA V Assets, Store Worlds, Internet and more...). They kind of looked like what I wanted them to look like but they didn’t match that well across the board.

If there was one single thing that I could change about how the worlds work in The Sims 3 it would be the road system. Don’t get me wrong. The roads in The Sims 3 are miles ahead (haha miles) of what we got in say The Sims 2. Sims 3 Roads can curve, run in any angle to the world grid, have different textures, working bridges,... Thats all stuff that Sims 2 can’t. At least from neighborhood view. In lot view roads can be a bit more flexible. But still I’d say that Sims 3 Roads are superior. Yet they only have one lane per side. They always have a sidewalk. They always have the same width. They are completely flat and normal maps can only do so much. I mean it’s okay. Its not Cities:Skylines or SimCity but things could be better.

My new roads work around many of the issues that I previously had with Sims 3 Roads. The new road textures are AGES ahead of the old ones and I spent like 2 weeks making and adjusting the textures (shoutout to the Pixelmator Pro developers for creating an Image Editor that doesn’t drive me crazy)

But let me go into detail:

The difference in detail when you see before and after next to each other is simply astonishing even for me. Look at how much more grungy and used the new roads look. Also note the asymmetric nature of them.

The old textures for this road were mainly modified roads from Roaring Heights. I had then made minor modifications by adding a curb to give the road more dimension. I originally picked that road because I liked the yellowish sidewalk which is also in Sunset Valley I think and it was the only one that also had these red plastered crosswalks that LA is so famous for.

Here you can see more of how much more detail the roads have. The curb has proper coloring compared to the sidewalk and there is a *whatever you call that part between the curb and asphalt* which has a dirty appearance while not looking too repeated.

Note: The curb has no seams and seems to be like one super long piece of curb (new insult unlocked you pice of curb) because the road detail texture repeats three times in one sidewalk til. If there was a seam the curb pieces would be super small.

A difficulty with repeating textures is always making them look detailed, contrasted and sharp without making them look too busy and repeated.

The sidewalk texture is a blend of the default sidewalk texture and a concrete texture. I then changed the color and added details by hand like the all the cracks and irregularities. Notice how the sidewalk gets very slightly darker to the seams too add more depth. Something like this has to be done very subtly so it doesn’t get overdone.

By crafting the road textures myself I can also work around issues that I had before.

I was actually a bit sad replacing the road texture in the vinewood hills area since that light road texture was the very first I used in this world. It was here from the start you could say. The textures were sourced from Lucky Palms where they’re used as freeway.

Now with the new roads I can fix the crossings that can’t have transparency on the sidewalk. The corners have the dirt/sand texture painted onto them so It gives them the illusion of transparency and they blend with their surroundings.

The road details are also handpainted. The yellow lines in the middle and the white borders. In the newer picture you can see how this unifies the different types of roads. The darker old road had white lines in the middle, while the lighter road had yellow lines that were also bigger.

Notice how the old roads were all over the place. The dark and light roads had no actual connection to each other. I mean they were connected but there is no relation between them. They could very well be in two completely different worlds. They don’t tell a story. The new roads do. You can see how these two roads are subject to the same law. The lines have to be the same as that’s how they are meant to be. You could think about how the darker roads are more fresh and how they were paved onto the lighter roads because they were too broken but they didn’t pave the road completely because of financial constraints and other parts still being okay.

It’s laughable but you can really think of an entire story just for a section of a road.

Now onto my favorite part about the new roads! I got really excited when I realized I could do this. Using the road detail overlay I created road sections that are bicolored. In my opinion this little detail makes the world look so much more realistic. It just gives it that extra layer of depth and I love it.

Previously I only had roads connected to each other that had completely different colors (top picture). Now I am able to connect these in a way that makes them look like only one side got new pavement and the other lane was still okay so they left as is. This one road you see in the bottom picture looks completely natural like one road that got new pavement in some areas, when it’s actually technically 3 different roads:

more used light colored road, mix of new and old road, newer dark road

How much a neighborhood can change when you replace the roads. Kind of funny how clean perfect roads were replaced with cracked used roads yet the crappy roads make the area look better.

Some roads in Los Santos are really, really broken and in dire need of complete repaving! Why do I even pay taxes??? I wanted a road that resembles just that! Look at how broken the road is. Full of seams filled with tar and how each tile is colored a bit differently. Also I alternated the direction of the road every now and then to break up the repetition. Do you notice the thin lines that run on each tile?

I feel like this was the hardest road to not overdo. It’s a really busy pattern but in my opinion it still looks good. For each road I had to balance the textures between GTA V’s art style, Sims 3′s art style, my desired art style, and reality. I wanted to make them look as good and realistic as I could without making them look completely out of place. Always remember: They need to look good with a Sim standing on them, a house being next to them and a Sims 3 basegame car on them. All of these have to fit together without making any one of them looking edited in. I cant replace every single game asset after all. Or could I? *Vsauce music starts playing*

Road beside 12 Residue Apartments

Only a few weeks ago I learned that red curb means no parking lmao

Do you notice that one side of the road looks a bit different from the other? One side is lighter and other a bit reddish. Another example of depth/detail

Wow. You really read a nerd talk about roads for like 10 minutes?

Now after my TED Talk about Sims 3 Roads is over I may have come to the conclusion that the roads are the single most important thing to mind when creating a world (next to terrain). They are the connection between every single point in the world and a gateway into the heart of the created world. When you see the roads, you know what kind of place the world is trying to represent. Just take a look at all the different EA worlds and how different the roads can be (e.g. Monte Vista vs Twinbrook).

Now thank you for reading this <3

I hope the road of your life is not as bad as this...

The Pet Shop Boys Video Game

youtube

You may know about West End Girls being in GTA V, or the various songs that have been included in karaoke and rhythm games. But that's just tracks included in the game, not an entire game with the central focus of the Pet Shop Boys. Surely nothing like that exists...right?

Our story begins on a late Saturday night, in a Discord voice call. @condylicious, knowing my obsession with PSB, had jokingly searched for "Pet Shop Boys video game" on Youtube.

What we found was an enigma that plagued our lives for the rest of the night. So now I present it to you, dear reader, in hopes that this curiosity is documented for posterity.

This is PSB Game (1992) for the Commodore 64.

(Full essay below.)

Part 1: Gameplay

Lucky for all of us, not only is the PSB Game available online, but it's playable right out of Archive.org! I recommend adjusting the emulator's joystick settings so that the controls work properly.

Intro

Upon loading up the ROM, the first screen we're presented with has an animated color border, the name Riff Raffs, the label Pet Shop Boys +6, and a scrolling message in the middle.

Quick tangent: this first screen that we've been presented with is a crack intro. To quickly summarize, breaking and removing a software's copy protection oddly enough has a culture around it, complete with entire teams that work on cracking programs. Not only do they remove the copy protection, but they add their own little flourish at the intro. The Riff Raffs here are one such team.

The second screen is a cheat menu, also added in by the crack team. For my playthrough I gave myself infinite lives because I'm bad at video games.

Title Screen

With all of that out of the way, it's time to start the game!

Other than the big text declaring PSB Game, there's the credit of 1992 S Pearson (we'll come back to this later), and an indication that Neil is Port 1 and Chris is Port 2. The title screen also has an extremely loud clashing noise playing over it. Listening closely though, it's a few second loop of the beginning of Opportunities (Let's Make Lots of Money).

I'm gonna be honest, these visuals combined with the clanging bitcrushed audio is uncannily similar to the supposed Polybius title screen. If the Men in Black show up at my door five days from now and start asking me synth-pop related questions then this is why.

The Stages

Pressing fire on the title screen starts the game. Whichever port you used to start will be the port you can play on. You can press fire on the other port at any time to have a second player join in.

Neil and Chris can move left and right. The fire button shoots up a comically large bullet upwards.

Getting hit knocks off one block from the health meter, as well as make our heroes flail their arms in distress. If the health meter drops to zero, its game over for that player. If both players lose, the game boots you back to the title screen. But I gave myself infinite health earlier so I won't have to worry about that during this playthrough :)

There are twelve stages. Most of the stages take place on this Launderette screen:

On these Launderette stages, large gray rectangles attempt to squish our heroes. They are also impossible to shoot, leaving you with no choice to dodge them. After two stages of the Launderette screen, the game changes the stage to a different screen with different enemies. It switches back to the Launderette screen for another two stages, then to a new screen, and so on until the game ends. Here are all the unique stages.

Stage 3:

It's the sleeve for the Love Comes Quickly single! Being rendered so minimalistic has somehow made Chris more ominous than he already was.

Stage 6:

A bald, sunglasses-wearing man with a shirt that says "Video Fall". I'm not sure who this character is supposed to be, but he's throwing VHSs at us. Luckily these VHSs can be destroyed with a couple of shots, one of the few things that you can actually shoot.

Stage 9:

The word UNFAIR is turned to its side, while a strange creature attacks our heroes. This stage isn't any more unfair than the other stages though, so I'm not sure what that's about.

Stage 12:

I have no idea what this is supposed to be a picture of. It's possible that since Stage 3 was a picture of Chris that this might be a picture of Neil. But it's so mangled by pixelization that it's anyone's guess really.

Ending

The game ends rather unceremoniously after Stage 12. It rapidly flickers the words "THE END". After flashing it for a little while, the game loops back to Stage 1.

Truly, the best that gaming has to offer.

Part 2: Who is responsible for this

As I mentioned in the intro, the first part of this journey began with a youtube video of PSB Game's gameplay. IMO it's not as good as mine, but it did start me off on this entire journey, to which I must thank it.

After going through every stage of grief upon watching this video, I began searching for more information about this game. I found two Commodore 64 databases had entries for the game. Here is the Gamebase64 entry, and here is the CSDb entry.

What's the title of the game anyway?

You might have noticed that the game appears to go by several names. CSDb, the original youtube video we found, and the cracking team itself calls the game "Pet Shop Boys +6". But the Gamebase64 entry calls it "PSB Game - Pet Shop Boys", and the game's title screen simply calls it "PSB Game." To confuse this further, the Archive.org file has "+6" tacked on at the end of the file name. My best guess is that the +6 part is related to the cracker team themselves? If anyone knows Commodore 64 terminology can explain this, feel free to let me know. Update: I've learned that the "+6" attached to the title refers to the 6 cheats available to use on the cheat menu before the game loads. Here is a video that explains the concept in more detail. Thank you to @dinosaurkirbys for letting me know about this, I appreciate it!

Personally, I've decided to go with the name PSB Game since it appears on the title screen.

Back to figuring out who made this

I realize it's a little bit late in this essay to point out that this game is a fan creation and completely unofficial. But uh, I thought I'd bring it up just in case.

The CSDb entry has little else other than the download link and credits the cracking team Riff Raffs (more about this in a bit) but has no credits for the game itself. The Gamebase64 entry gives us a little more information, noting the year it was published, as well as two names: Shaun Pearson. and Chris Yates.

Chris Yates is a red herring. As seen in the publishing info, PSB Game was created with SEUCK, which is an application that can be used to create shoot 'em up games. Chris Yates is one of the programmers for that application. Essentially, it's like if you credited a game made with RPG Maker as being created by RPG Maker itself.

That leaves us with Shaun Pearson.

Gamebase64 lets you search by creator. Searching for the name Shaun Pearson brings up a few results, mainly other SEUCK projects. What caught my attention was that they appear to have worked on a game as recently as 2020.

Now where this gets particularly interesting is that searching the same game on CSDb credits to user Wile Coyote instead. I'm not entirely certain if Wile Coyote is Shaun Pearson, but if they are, then they're active to this day. I'm not sure how to get into contact with them to confirm this because CSDb's forums were too confusing for me (I'm bad at technology I know), but if they are in fact the same, I think it's pretty cool to know that they're still active. If anyone can find me a way to contact them (or hey, if Shaun/Wile Coyote is currently reading this and want to contact me), feel free to reach out!

Part 3: Conclusion

As is, I think that's all there is that can be documented about the PSB Game. Before I go though, I do have a few requests.

One, if there is a physical copy of PSB Game laying around somewhere (unlikely, but you never know), I'd like to see a picture of it.

Two, if anyone knows how to rip C64 sprites, I'd love to have the sprite sheet for this game. Especially tiny pixel Chris and Neil flailing their arms.

And finally, Shaun, if you're reading this, I'd just like to say thank you so much for creating this strange little game. I had a blast uncovering it and learning a bunch about the C64 in the process. As I said, if you're willing to reach out, I'd love to hear more about this game from you!

20 questions for fic writers

Tagged by @ashcroft-writes. Figure hey, why not. Feel free to do this, but no pressure @downrightembarassing @dukeoftheblackstar @my-sun-m00n-and-stars @pickleprickle

1. How many works do you have on AO3? 27 total. I should have MORE.

2. What's your total A03 word count? 551,012 words.

3. What fandoms do you write for? The only fandoms I have written for as far as fanfiction goes is Grand Theft Auto 5 and Star Wars, though back in the day I used to RP all kinds of stuff with my friends in the good ole' AOL chatrooms. Pretty sure I also used to post to RP forums.

4. What are your top five fics by kudos?

All the Wrong Places | Trevor Philips (GTA V)

Once you figure out one, the rest are easy. (Series of Cad Bane oneshots)

Stars Above! | Cad Bane (Cad Bane x OC)

Handcuff Marks and Stubble Burn (Trikey / GTA V)

The Interrogation (Cad Bane x Reader )

5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not? Yessss.

It may not be super longwinded or elaborate because I may not know what to say, but I always try to return a comment with a thank you at least, because they are very much appreciated.

6. What's the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending? Oh, I can't tell you because it isn't finished yet. >D In fact, I am a slut for angst. You can just go ahead and expect terrible things to happen if I'm writing it.

7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending? Hm, probably something with Shriv Suurgav, actually. He's a total sweetheart, and if I am in the mood for fluff, he is usually my go to. Better than Candy was always one of my favorites. You get what you want and Shriv gets a blowjob. ;D

8. Do you get hate on fics? Nope. So weird to see it happen to others. Like, what?

9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind? Are you kiddddding? LOL That is basically all I write besides PWP - which is pretty much the same thing - angst/hurt, and sometimes a little comfort fic here and there. Though I am not sure what you mean by what "kind." I am all over the place.

10. Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you've written? No. Not into it, really. AU's are a little different, but I like to still be as canon compliant as possible without deviating too far from the original characterization. Maybe they're more like silly little "Crack" scenarios.

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen? I don't think so.

12. Have you ever had a fic translated? Not to my knowledge.

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before? Not exactly, though I brainstorm and talk about Cad Bane and Hondo with my internet BBF like every fucking day nonstop ( we're obsessed ).

14. What's your all-time favourite ship? BANAKA! I will scream it from the rooftops, preach it from the pulpit, rub it in your faces (not really), and force you to see the perfect relationship that is Cad Bane x Hondo Ohnaka if it is the last thing I do. I also really like Cad Bane x Jango Fett, and Shriv Suurgav x Cad Bane, and even Shriv Suurgav x Poe Dameron. >D

15. What's the WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will? I want to finish all of them, but sometimes I wonder if I will get around to finishing "Handcuff Marks and Stubbleburn." I haven't been in a GTA V mood lately, but I really DO wanna finish All the wrong places. I can't just let it go at chapter 94. AHHHH.

16. What are your writing strengths? Characterization and descriptive language. Also not too shabby with dialogue and plot. I sort of just come up with shit as I go along by the seat of my pants. Sometimes, I will take a few notes down or make a rough outline, but that's about it.

17. What are your writing weaknesses? Perfectionist. Being a little verbose on occasion, but honestly IDAGAF and write what I want.

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?

I won't do it unless it is a "fake" language, such as Huttese or Durese. I am not above making up words and using context clues to figure out what a character is saying, such as Jabba the Hutt. They basically did that in the first three Star Wars movies. If we can deal with Chewie making his Wookiee sounds and using Han as a translator, I feel like it's fine to do it in a fic.

I think I tried to write ONE line in French to be funny, as Trevor Philips is French-Canadian, but I won't do so otherwise, and especially not in a serious context. Google translate isn't the most accurate, I hear.

19. First fandom you wrote for? Probably Hercules the Legendary Journey's or The Vampire Chronicles back in middle school.

20. Favourite fic you've ever written? Hmm.

I really liked writing Trigger Happy, which Cad Bane masturbates aboard his ship alone in the darkness of deep space, thinking about a warm, mammalian reader who is lightyears away...

I also really loved writing Better than Candy. I love writing for Shriv and his self-deprecating, jaded sense of humor. I wanted him to get a little "treat," and was quite happy with the results. I had the idea on the way home from work; I was sucking on a lollipop in traffic. >D

tbf it does look really good i’ve definitely got close to buying it but i think i will ask for my birthday or maybe Christmas i’m not sure yet but i’ll lyk if i do eventually get it, for now i just reply the gta story line as it’s like pretty good

i love rdr2 as much as any other crazy teenage boy stan but because it's storyline is so good it overshadows GTA V story line since that's a cracking story

if you don't choose option "C" in that one mission do not talk to me. you never pick micheal or trevor, you pick the other option

HEYO EVERYONE!

If you’d like to expand this list, pls send an ask! Or dm, or comment. I’m happy either way.

Here are my upcoming GTA V fanfiction ideas (NOT INCLUDING CURRENT COMISSIONS):

NOT SMUT: -Trevor and Amanda drunk kissing in North Yankton and arguing afterwards (crack, humour) -Trevor annoying you (As his love language) by embarrassing you in public. (crack, fluff).

SMUT:

-Drunk Michael accidentally calling a cab to your address and seducing you into letting him stay the night. -Trevor being an angry brad, threatening violence when he’s riding reader’s thigh (but slowly turns soft and clingy when he’s close). -Edging Trevor and when he’s close, you stop and make him beg for more. -North Yankton (1980s) having a drunk one-night stand with Trevor in a random motel. (He has long hair, small stubble, nose ring... Basically every fanarts interpretation of Trevor in the 80s).

GTA V (PS4) Imperfect, but never boring. It's greatest highs are letting you drive around a world that feels limitless and alive, or putting you in the middle of the best action movie you've ever seen. That illusion frequently cracks, but its grody charm lets you forgive a lot.

Unlocking GTA 5 Secrets: 94FBR Crack Insights

Grand Theft Auto V (GTA 5) has captivated gamers worldwide with its vast open world, gta5 94fbr immersive gameplay, and thrilling missions. However, for some players, the allure of accessing hidden content or customizing the game beyond its intended scope leads them to explore alternative avenues, such as using cracks like 94FBR. In this article, we delve into the world of GTA 5 94FBR cracks, exploring what they are, how they work, and the implications for both players and the gaming community.

Understanding 94FBR Cracks

The term "94FBR" originates from a specific search query format used by software crackers. When users search for software cracks or serial numbers using this format (inurl:94FBR "[software name]"), they often find results leading to websites offering unauthorized downloads or methods to bypass software protections. This search query has been associated with pirated software and cracks for various programs, including games like GTA 5.

In the case of GTA 5, 94FBR cracks typically refer to unauthorized methods of bypassing the game's activation or copy protection systems. This allows players to access the full game or specific features without purchasing legitimate copies or adhering to licensing agreements.

The Appeal of 94FBR Cracks in GTA 5

For many players, the appeal of using 94FBR cracks in GTA 5 lies in the ability to unlock premium features, access exclusive content, or simply avoid paying for the game. Some cracks offer modifications or cheats that enhance gameplay, providing unlimited in-game currency, rare items, or other advantages.

Additionally, the modding community surrounding GTA 5 has embraced 94FBR cracks as a means to experiment with custom content and create unique experiences within the game. From new vehicles and weapons to entirely new storylines and missions, these cracks serve as a gateway to a world of player-created content.

Risks and Consequences

While the allure of accessing hidden features or customizing gameplay may be tempting, using 94FBR cracks in GTA 5 comes with significant risks. First and foremost, these cracks often violate the game's End User License Agreement (EULA) and can lead to legal consequences.

Moreover, downloading cracks from unofficial sources exposes players to malware, viruses, and other malicious software. These unauthorized downloads can compromise the security of your device, leading to data loss, identity theft, or other cyber threats.

The Impact on the Gaming Community

The use of 94FBR cracks in GTA 5 also has broader implications for the gaming community. It undermines the work of developers who put countless hours into creating the game, as it circumvents the need to support them through legitimate purchases.

Furthermore, the proliferation of cracked versions can disrupt online multiplayer environments, creating unfair advantages for those using modified or unauthorized game files. This can lead to a less enjoyable experience for honest players and damage the integrity of the game's community.

Conclusion

In the world of GTA 5, 94FBR cracks represent a double-edged sword, offering tantalizing opportunities to unlock hidden potential while carrying significant risks and consequences. While some players may choose to explore these avenues, it's essential to weigh the potential benefits against the ethical, legal, and security considerations involved.

Ultimately, the best way to experience GTA 5 and support its developers is through purchasing legitimate copies and engaging with the game's rich world in accordance with its intended design. By doing so, players can enjoy the full breadth of content, contribute to the vibrant gaming community, and ensure the continued success of one of the most iconic titles in gaming history.

Grand Theft Auto V, and its use of dynamic audio, by RPG.

For a decade old game, GTA V definitely stands tall within the other triple A titles released at that time; the attention to detail, whether it be with civilians who make the map lively to areas where you can explore without necessarily having to complete missions.

It is safe to say that audio is a huge part of GTA V, and its environment. Its in everything from the music that plays in cars to when civilians talk on the phone or to each other.

An example of a type of audio commonly used in games is dynamic audio, whereas you could walk into a room for example and music would get louder as you enter and quieter as you exit; this certainly is shown where you can hear the radio playing as you walk past certain buildings (and the songs are dependent on the area you are in on the map, making it even more unique and attentive to detail). The radio stations in game are sometimes divided, for example having specific radio stations for specific areas or zones; two examples of these are Radio Mirror Park and Still Slipping (Radio Mirror Park being focused in and around the Mirror Park area and Still Slipping having a very small radius just outside of Mirror Park and within East Los Santos.

Another element of audio is when characters interact with each other while passing by each other, this could be considered dynamic because it retains within GTAV's atmosphere. Civilians have varying voices, varying voice lines and different ways of approaching things; which makes the game unique in a way that it represents the lesser cared-about details within the game.

Additionally, it wouldn't be fair to not add the use of dynamic emergency siren audio; when a police car or multiple police cars are responding, you will either hear the singular one or a doppler effect of all of them together which is also variable to the distance at which they are positioned from the player.

Some very small details about GTA Vs weirdly unique and expansive dynamic audio that nobody really notices:

The use of faint car revving sounds, and the sounds of honking when in larger metropolitan areas.

Distant shooting and explosions, with bullet cracks and whizzes.

Faint but noticeable wind sounds when near wind turbines, open areas or up high.

Walking sounds dependent on surface; for example squelches when in wet mud.

Some NPCs sometimes get annoyed, and some randomly insult you; another weird detail about GTA which makes it...GTA.

Conclusively, I think the way GTA has implemented audio makes it just that more realistic; and helps build a nice and lively atmosphere to roam around in.
