Aidan asked me to do a guest blog on media impact in a fantasy setting and why I chose to use media in my novels. You can check it out here: http://aidanmoher.com/blog/2013/03/articles/fantasy-is-hardly-an-escape-from-reality-by-anthony-huso/
As an author, it’s rare that I appreciate writing in video games.
Often it’s not necessarily the writer’s fault. Writing as a discipline must sometimes contort itself horribly to serve broader, madder designs. That’s why I’m so excited about a game on kickstarter that’s focus is not on shaders and gore, but on story. Not just story as in, hey: this is a great story — what say we make us a game about it? — but the ancient tradition of story telling. Unwritten promises to deliver a tribal, epic and beautifully scored game with spiritual roots in games like Journey.
Just a quick post with a cool no-trace walk through of my map in Dishonored: Lady Boyle.
I had a very nice time talking with Dave Truesdale a while back. He read Black Bottle without having read The Last Page . The result: I was shocked speechless that he understood what was going on in the book. Best part is he loved it. Interview with him is up at SFSite.
Here’s the next installment in the video series for Dishonored. I’ll probably link the whole series here as they come out.
