I think the point was trying to lure him back with high pressure sales tactics. 😂
I had this update in the works since July 15th, but hyperperfectionism about the dragonball stitch and Ultima Online got in the way (and boy did UO do a number on my plans for early August...). I gave up on making the stitch perfect.
If my dry retelling of events fascinated you enough to try the beta, drop me a message and I might be able to help you out.
It's not so much an offer to play _with_ me as much as an offer to help out. UO can be rather opaque even to veterans from different MMOs.
As you will undoubtedly notice from the size of your scroll bar, the meat of my gameplay happened on the third day. 55 more images, calculated at 3.63MB size in total.
And still not done. I left out part of day 3, but day 4 is so uneventful I'll wrap it all up as an epilogue.
Day 3 was the most eventful of them all. Out of about 1800 screenshots over the course of 4 days, over 800 were on it.
I'll try to add the rest before the beta re-opens, but going through over a thousand screenshots as memories begin to fade can be a whole lot of work.
This won't be a pretty update. I only wanted to put the page up. Now if you'll excuse me, I'll pretend myself important and send my thoughts to the GMs.
I like how this image came out so much that I had to put it up on my webpage before the article is finished (it'll take a while).
I was meant to add this last year but I was unhappily busy then. Things have gotten happily busy now, but I couldn't forgive myself if I missed this a second year in a row. WE'VE GOT DENNIS BERGKAMP
I realized it appears very disingenuous to comment on subtitle translation quality without defining any guidelines, so here they are. Although fully attuned with my Conviction, they are not of my creation. These are adapted from accounts of different prominent sub groups (and even publishers) during the time of the Great Age of fansubbing.
Nice! Most of those are good guidelines for every language. I always dug the translator notes whenever they took the time.
