Itemizing Sucks

Monday, July 31, 2006
The design department has been busy filling Darkfall with content the last few months, and I have been helping out with the itemization of the game.

Gianna who makes the excellent comic The N00b casually asked me what I was up to one day, and found my answer strip worthy.

It mirrors my feelings about item descriptions very accurately.

Heh, just found the Noob a while back... good contribution there Claus.
 
Indeed a good joke. Nice work.
 
Heh, I hope you really don't make your wife do all of that! I'm glad things are coming along! :)
 
haha, I've been reading the noob for awhile and I thought that was a good one.
 
The detail some people go into for the items in a game is incredible and it sure does take a lot of work. It is the repetition that kills creativity. You have my sympathy.
 
tedium infiltrates the coolest of jobs? makes me feel better about having no goals in life.
 
Heh, cute cartoon. You also always have the DF communtiy to draw upon for creative item names!
 
How true. I mean, you can only name so many things "Rhynn's Axe of Kickassedness" before it starts getting trite.
