Dante Direct! June!

Happy Dante Direct! And a Day Early!!!!!
So! It’s time for the next Dante Direct and what I’ve been doing with my life in the meantime as we continue doing! As is tradition for these last few, aint got nothing much to say. 
However, just because I ain't got nothing going on doesn't mean progress isn't made. If you look at when I started the last few around January to now, you'd see alot of major changes and I've been working through each section month by month by month with editing and hashing and writing. 

The Final Push! 

I have the final actual “content” to write for Draft 2.0 which I’m calling “The Alpha” Last month I had finally finally completed the faction roster which is both the longest and probably densest part of the whole damn guide. The reason for this is I wanted to be thorough and rich so people could get better concrete ideas of how the factions flowed and worked. 

Of course, because this shit is me, some things I already know I’m gonna change when we go from “Alpha” to “beta”. But that is in the future! Right now? This month? We’re working on the GM side of things! 

This will probably be the longest section as I have recapped a few things from the PC/what you can show your players side of the field guide, and fleshed out some knowledge of the world only the GM would have. 

There are 4 sections to the GM side each with about….5-7 subpoints to touch on. How long each aspect is? I do not know! And then after that? Well, after that all the fluff/prose/scribblin is done and it means I have to roll up my sleeves, get grease on everything, and work on all the various Dante mechanics I’ve been using. I’ll be spending alot of time hopefully in June just working on the mechanics, especially mechs. I have long running unorganized threads of notes of what to do with each mech, plus running small combat shots over the summer has helped me do things! So as always, please be patient! Please Stay tuned!

What has Xi been up to? 

Well! I finally completed 2 big things in terms of Media this month!
I finished Le Mis, and I finished Expedition 33! Two very french pieces of media, both excellent, both had taken me way tf longer to finish than I thought, but both have really impacted me, which is good! 

A dear friend and I have a running competition of who can read the most books, Le Mis was my 8th of this year, while my friend got to 14 because of how long the book is. But now that I’m done, I immediately shot up to 10, and I can get to 14 in about a month. They will owe me dinner!!!!!!!! (that is the bet)

Hopefully for more vibes I’ll be watching Andor soon and find my next “I am going to sink my teeth into this” game as well, Steam next fest is still on for 2 days if anyone is reading this on June 14th!
