There’s an experience I used to have as a kid that you don’t get in the modern age. Video games would come in a box with a cartridge or a disc inside, alongside a game manual.
Baldur’s Gate
The most epic trilogy in video game form ever written.
Extracting Data for my Let’s Play
In my Let’s Play of Baldur’s Gate I use a lot of cropped and edited images, and rely heavily on the in-game dialogue to tell the story. As I am a lazy programmer, you may wonder why I spend so much time editing these images.
Making Dialogue Colourful
I’ve been working on a Let’s Play of Baldur’s Gate for a while now, and there’s a feature I’ve always wanted to add to the site to make the dialogue pop a bit more.
The Anti-Woke are Snowflakes
The second someone uses the word “woke” unironically, I know exactly who they are. These are the people who call others snowflakes for being offended by bigotry. Yet they are the ones throwing tantrums over the tiniest things that offend their beliefs.
Holding Down the Mouse Button
There are games that are extremely popular that I just don’t get. Grim Dawn has a loyal fanbase and a Very Positive rating on Steam. Yet after three hours, I still can’t understand the appeal. Am I out of touch, or is it the children who are wrong?
Baldur’s Gate and Inventory Management
For a while now I’ve been playing a heavily modded version of the Baldur’s Gate Trilogy where I make use of modded container items.
Tragedy of the Baldur’s Gate Intro
When the Enhanced Editions of Baldur’s Gate were announced, there was one thing they said that worried long time fans. When they came out and I saw what they had done I was very sad. There was one experience removed from the game that I wish they had done better.
Girdle of Gender Nonconformity
It’s the holiday week so I don’t have much time to play Baldur’s Gate right now. So I thought I’d do a quick article about one aspect I really like about Baldur’s Gate’s design. It’s one you don’t even know is there unless you specifically look for it.
Unlocking Skins in Action Henk
My mission to finish all games in my Steam Library is moving at a slow pace. Lately I’ve been playing a lot of Action Henk, earning medals and unlocking skins. It’s gotten me thinking about skins in games, and how they have changed over the years.
Friends from the Keep

Across from Firebead’s home we find Feldepost’s Inn. Firebead wanted a copy of “The History of the Fateful Coin”, which he said should be for sale at the inn. We make our way inside.
