i click one video talking about the old "hidden" areas of vanilla WoW and now i'm diving into nostalgia and crying
I was reminded that WoW is 20 years old.
I played from 2007 to 2013 then waited to return until Legion and only stayed for the single expansion. I went back with my husband for a month to play this year and it simply... wasn't for me. WoW did not feel the same and I didn't expect it to. The game, the setting, and the players have all changed over the years and I no longer find comfort in Azeroth.
But damn... does watching the old cinematics really make me feel.
So my husband talked me into playing LotRO and... wow. What a pretty game for it's age and it's so chill and relaxed. I rolled an Elf Loremaster and character creation was pretty fun. Kind of wish FFXIV had a few sliders...
Anyway, I think it'll be my slow down and just enjoy the vibe game. I mean, I'm only level 6 but... you know.

Digital art commission , this is a Painting we made of a Tauren Paladin from Warcraft. Hope you like it ;)
Zhu-Gon the sour from Warcraft is our new fanart for today's Inktober! We love Pandaria so we had to do something to celebrate it!
Friend: (Discussing plans) Maybe we could hang at your place?
Me: Yeah, my place works; but I warn you, for IT IS A DUNGEON. Only four may enter at a time, and if you leave the area ALL PROGRESS WILL BE LOST. Additionally, you may enter multiple times for the chance to earn additional loot, BUT ONLY IF YOU SURVIVE.
I seriously love this show!
I was collecting PVP loot in eve online and as I sold some damaged drones I found, I realized something.... I am a space hobo collecting returnable items that others consider garbage. It's just like plastic cans in real life! I look with envy at the highly educated characters trading items at the trade hubs and I realize I will never catch up to the advantages they have...

INTERVIEW ON THE MAKING OF THE CANCELLED MMORPG NINELIVES
Ninelives is the most beautiful RPG that was never completed, but can still be experienced as it was left. As part of my video on the game (now up for early access on Nebula), I also interviewed Tota of SmokymonkeyS on its inspirations and development before its suspension in 2016.
What would you say are your main inspirations for the art style in Ninelives? E.g. other artists, film, games, literature, history etc.!
I was a huge fan of Adventure Gamebook when I was a kid. Well, maybe you don't know what that is. Please read the wiki if you need: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamebook. I was reading (playing) translated oversea gamebooks well, and love the inner artwork especially what draw by monochrome. I had never seen pictures like that before, and had a strong impact on me. So, I wanted to make a gamebook by my self. When I started making my own gamebooks, I learned a lot about how games are made. That's because a gamebook is a medium in which the player can see all the source code. At first I started making gamebooks because I was attracted by the artwork, but my interest eventually shifted to making the game itself.
Related to the above, do you take a lot of inspiration from real world cultures and places? Are there any that you particularly gravitate towards?
I like the mixed culture, like Chinoiserie in France at the 17 century. Plus, since I'm Japanese and this country has always been greatly influenced by China. So I'm not limited to any one of these cultures, but trying to create as I am influenced by all of them. Sometimes people say that what I create looks Japanese, Chinese, or Asian, which is neither correct nor incorrect. I try not to be only of a certain culture when I create. That's because I want to create an imaginary world that is somewhat like reality, but slightly different.
Why did you want to make Ninelives?
Ninelives was the first game I ever thought of making, I think when I was about 17.
Do you think Ninelives being in an unfinished state provides a different atmosphere when playing the game and exploring the world?
I don't particularly think so. The atmosphere of the game is still complete. I wanted the game to be a relaxed, free-roamed adventure for players.
I wasn't certain during my research, so I wanted to confirm if Tomomi Sakuba was involved in Ninelives in any way?
Yeah, Sakuba was involved in Ninelives lots of ways. As you said, he did some of the texture pictures for flowers, plants and tree leaves. He also drawn the world map and area maps of the game like below: http://www.smokymonkeys.com/kyrill/index.asp?direct=138 He actually walked around the world by himself to make this. He was one of the most earliest game tester of the game. Oh, and I have to tell you this. He's a voice actor of male Nightbreed and Elf! In addition, his wife did some of creature voices. Her voice is also used on Triglav too!
What are your own personal thoughts on Ninelives? Is there anything you would drastically change looking back on it? Or any big changes you would want to make if you were to continue development at any point?
Ninelives was too much for me in many ways. It was a world I had been thinking about since I was young, but there were too many things to actually create to handle, and in that sense it's exactly the dream a child thinks about. We are a team of two in SmokymonkeyS, but one of us is in charge of programming and system engineering, and the game itself was created completely by myself. I had to create all the pictures, models, terrain, music, and story by myself. Now if I'm going to make something, I don't make it on such a large scale anymore.
Apart from the Switch release for Garage and occasional updates on Triglav that you mentioned before, is there anything that SmokymonkeyS are working on for the future?
Not yet so far.
I noticed your banner on the official website (http://www.smokymonkeys.com/kyrill/index.asp) has a character on a train platform, I wondered if that might be a future game?
Once it was. It was a previous project of Triglav for mobile. But it was going to be on a larger scale again, so we decided to port Triglav before that. There are no plans to make that game now. But I may make another game with that worldview and atmosphere. For example, as a mobile game.
A big thank you to Tota for taking the time to answer my questions! You can find SmokymonkeyS and their games here:
