Everyone should read this book @JayDook did an excellent job with it.
Sometimes survival is just someone staying on the line. Vega is stranded on an alien world. Jace answers his distress call. The longer they talk, the more they come to rely on each other. The Callisto Connection. Out now on Kindle and in paperback. a.co/d/0gUZfwUn

For anyone following my novel arc, I’ve added a lore section to the website. There are entries for Vega, Jace, Elara, and the Fleet, plus a look inside the Fleet Survival Field Guide. I’ve been having some fun putting that one together. The entries give me a little more room to explore the characters’ backgrounds and the world they live in. Where they grew up, what they do away from their duties, how the Fleet operates. Some extra context for the people and things you’ll meet in the book. All three books in the series share the same universe, so this will keep growing over time and as each new book comes out. It’s a small collection for now, and I’m looking forward to adding more to it.

Definitely read this book when it releases :)
Changes are coming 🚨 (not really) My primary content will still be Starfield and space RPG stuff. But with my debut science fiction novel, The Callisto Connection, coming later this month, I’m making a little room for the author side of me here too. I’m bringing back the Captain’s Log series, too!👀 I’m also planning occasional game reviews focused on story, characters, dialogue, and how I feel about the writing. And YES, there will be occasional shameless self-promotion of the book. I wrote a whole damn novel, and I'm gonna tell folks about it.😂

Well, saying goodbye to OpenAI today that whole mess with the pro plans is the final straw. I could have worked around how dumb the models have become but paying the same for a fraction of the service nope. On to grok/copilot.

Starfield has come a long way in three years, and so have we. Let’s celebrate how far the game and this community have come. Here’s one of my first screenshots vs. one of my latest. Now show me yours. 🚀

You've had nearly three years already. If you haven't yet, get out there and explore the Starfield.

The funniest part of Bethesda discourse is the assumption that praising one game requires demoting another. Starfield fans don’t need Skyrim and Fallout 4 to be bad for Starfield to be good. Skyrim fans don’t need Starfield to fail for Skyrim to remain great. Reject the engagement-farm civil war. Enjoy video games. 🚀

I feel I spend way too much time having to troubleshoot and fix failed codex app updates and sandbox issues :/

I say this with absolute confidence: There has never been a better time to play Starfield.

Make an impact in StarSim development! A poll was made on our Discord server for choosing the consequences of siding with the Crimson Fleet. Our Discord can be found here: buff.ly/WTo0arL

Great new feature I never knew about
You can now customise sections in the Codex and ChatGPT desktop app. Group your chats, then drag sections into whatever order works for you. @ChatGPT @OpenAIDevs

I really wish @OpenAI would stop torturing us with the "control other devices" help references and please just release the feature :) It would speed up work immensely not having to RDP.

Replying to @Xyla_Fox
@Xyla_Fox and I will be discussing some of the recent changes as well as *hopefully* what's in store this coming week. We'll be digging further into the Crimson Fleet storyline as its the most space-heavy within @StarfieldGame.
We'll be starting this week's dev stream in about 30 minutes using the latest StarSim: Beyond Space build. We run these Sundays and Wednesdays at noon EDT (GMT-4). You can watch us continue the Crimson Fleet storyline at: twitch.tv/quarteronion

While trying to fix Skyrim, I became totally captivated by Star Wars: Zero Company. As a mod author, I am super impressed with this game. The lighting, the customization, and the writing is all brilliant. On the fence about it? Check it out tomorrow 10:00AM EST.
