Developer Story Time with Old Man Davis

[Aeschylus]

From my own experience of moving a lot of stuff a long damn way, I'd say it's worthwhile to rent a small truck yourself for transporting a lot of the more fragile and valuable stuff. It's not hugely expensive and is probably safer than trusting your collections to a bunch of movers who couldn't give a fuck.

Here is a link to my Fallout Stuff. Some of it is junk, some of it is pretty nice. I would happily answer any questions about it:

The album is not organized in any fashion at all. None of the pics are labelled either.

Fallout 1 sealed...

... Pipboy original art...

.... GECKO IN A CAN?!!!....

Why oh why did I spend so much on some of those KS (looking at you Shadowrun Returns... )!

Aww I wanted to actually see that donut shop of yours. If it was closer I would have asked my parents if we could have gone sooner.

 

[Roguey]

Roguey Commence stalking.

Not interested.

 

[Infinitron]

Roguey Commence stalking.

Not interested.

Tsk tsk, for all you know he might be being gathered up for the next Obsidian Kickstarter or other project. It's not just about the one person.

 

[Jasede]

Unless stalking Mr. Davis will somehow yield Sawyer nudes I doubt Roguey is interested.

Well, AD did say "Most of my truly good stuff has yet to be photographed." - so who knows what might come up.

Do you know what I consider the worst mistake of my life?

Selling my SNES when I was 14 or 15 years old. To get some cash.

You are so going to regret some of this.

 

[Endemic]

I wonder if Anthony is going back to Obsidian...

 

[Rake]

I wonder if Anthony is going back to Obsidian...

I think it's gonna be them. Or maybe inXile as a second choice. Anywhere else he will be wasted.

[Roguey]

I bet it's another casual thing from Iocaine.

 

[Sensuki]

Obsidian do have a few programming jobs up there. Would be nice to see Davis on Eternity. But inXile are LF programmers for Torment too.

 

[Infinitron]

Oh yeah, those guys: http://www.rpgcodex.net/forums/index.php?threads/what-if-obsidian-made-a-casual-game.75016/

A lot of this is contingent on the difficulty of the birth.

I have to transport one, maybe two cars (I might sell one), three cats, one wife, and one baby.

It's gonna be exciting, that's for sure.

A lot of my original stuff was disappeared for me when I joined the Army. Donated, garage sales, etc. I came home and it was all gone.

I've spent years re-collecting with my wife, and with many donations from friends.

I'm definitely not getting rid of everything.

The N64 and all the games for it are going.

I'm keeping my NES top loader, along with my favorite games and any games I want to share with my daughter.

I'm keeping both my SNES, along with my favorite games, like Innindo, Robotrek, FF, Shadowrun, etc.

Keeping at least two Genesis, along with my favorite games too.

Keeping my working c64 and some of the games for it like Standing Stones, Seven Cities of Gold, BT 1-3, and mail,order monsters.

Basically anything I can fit in the trunk so that it will be safe from the movers.

If the price is right (through research) I might be tempted to sell anything since my backlog is already longer than I can complete in this lifetime.


I see my wife has started to list my WoW figures too. I'm not listing everything here, but I assume anyone interested can see our other listings.

You think I would part with those?! COME ON.

Isn't the life-sized bronze statue of Sawyer one of the hardest items in your collection to transport? Especially with the phallus sticking out like that.

 

[Sensuki]

does it have the beard? I think the beard would be more popular, but perhaps not to Roguey.

That used to be a problem, sure, but then i got these strong magnets, similar to what WH 40k guys use with their figures for changing out weapons, and so now it detaches for easy shipping.

Edit: like this, only bigger http://masterdarksol.blogspot.com/2008/09/magnetizing-your-models.html

As a bonus, I can now swap it or with things, like a plasma rifle or a multi-headed monstrosity.

 

[Roguey]

Keeping a lot of console crap, selling PC stuff. Interesting.

 

[Outlander]

NES and SNES isn't console crap, kiddo, but what would you know.

 

[Roguey]

I grew up with 'em. Even with their inaccuracies, emulators are better because of the option of using save states and those take up no physical space.

 

[Jasede]

Yes, and electronic books are better because they weigh nothing, need no bookmarks, don't get dirty and don't take up any physical space.
Really, Roguey.

2. In a way.

Now that's an interpretable answer

I don't think its Iocaine for the sole reason, that that would be actual banding together with ex co-workers.

It actually sounds like Obsidian with that answer in kind of a joke form.

My first guess was Inxile, but that got lowered a bit since I guess you would be joinind Torment more likely as W2 is wrapping up, and in that case you would be rejoining Kevin.



... Or it may be Turtle Rock, because that seems like the place everyone of you goes to in the end (Largest collection of ex-Troika and Obsidian devs)

Edit: Thinking about it, InXile would still fit though. Eh, it's still my biggest guess.
