[humble sequoia]

Really do need to get my sleep schedule straightened out after those two days I got no sleep until late in the morning. :/

[tight lava]

i wish you luck with sleep scheduling. i’m definitely not the best person to go to for advice for it tho 😅😅

[humble sequoia]

But hey, positive thing that came out of all this is that I've had more socialization with other people. This server has been great for me in that way. :3

Yeah, one of the people I chat with is in Germany. So what?

[tight lava]

this is true! i’ve enjoyed talking with people here 😊

[humble sequoia]

One of the people on my friends list from here is definitely this one Ravenclaw I met, I think their name is "Cloudss" or something. ;3

[tight lava]

sounds like a cool person, i guess. 🤷‍♀️ why are they are cloud? i guess we’ll never know 🤔

[humble sequoia]

Maybe it's a reference to that popular PS1 game, FF7?

Who knows...

Oddly I really don't have as many Gryffindor friends I thought I'd have...

Usually I tend to see mostly Slytherins and Hufflepuffs, with the occasional Ravenclaw.

I'm not quite sure why, aren't Gryffindors the most common house?

[tight lava]

they have the rug 🤷‍♀️

[humble sequoia]

What... does that mean, dude?

[tight lava]

in the sop, we’re shown the gryffindor common room. but the rug has wrinkles (😭😭). it’s horrific so i theorise that the rug scared them off, yk?

[humble sequoia]

Er, why is a wrinkly rug... scary? I mean come on, be thankful for what you have.

[tight lava]

because why didn’t they fix itttt?!?!

[humble sequoia]

Oh and another thing about wrinkly rugs.
ALL RUGS HAVE WRINKLES YOU IDIOTS

[tight lava]

i don’t have ocd. but it just annoys me… a lot

[tight lava]

not necessarily

your rug would be have to be pretty thin to get wrinkled all the time. thicker rugs don’t tend to move around as much.

[humble sequoia]

Then again, I don't really have any right to talk about fear, since I'm pretty much not scared of anything.

[sudden trail]

Those wrinkles are tripping hazards smh

[tight lava]

hogwarts should be scared of health and safety inspectors 🤣

[humble sequoia]

Oh yes, just like a lego piece is a tripping hazard. <_<

Sighs Well, I guess my words caused everyone to die again.

[sudden trail]

Happens when you call people idiots 😂

[humble sequoia]

Whatever... back to wanting to start a RP for people to have a bit of fun in.

[ancient sable]

hey again

[humble sequoia]

Morning Scarlet. :3

[tight lava]

[sudden trail]

Good luck on the exams cloudss! 💙

[ancient sable]

Yay!

[humble sequoia]

Yeah, good luck on those exams.

[ancient sable]

and also I made new moodboards, wanna see?

[tight lava]

😅 i didn’t like school, i was glad to leave by the end of it. the people were great, but the principle made some.. uhh questionable decisions

[tight lava]

yes

[sudden trail]

Yesss

[humble sequoia]

I guess...

[ancient sable]

aight! I'll just post them in art channel in a bit

[humble sequoia]

Welp, back to listening to Tina Takes Newt In on loop. :/

[ancient sable]

and ah Sylvie, I really wanna talk to you about something, could please come in the dm?

[ancient sable]

Ah niceeee

[humble sequoia]

Well at least someone knew what I meant by that song. XD

[sudden trail]

Sure!

[ancient sable]

l don't ig? I just hyped you 💀

[humble sequoia]

It's just the song that plays in FB1 when Tina Goldstein takes Newt into MACUSA.

[ancient sable]

tysm!

[still spruce]

I'm back from a short brake yall

wssp topaz

is bizzy online?

[humble sequoia]

Honestly, right now, after how he was acting before I went to bed I'm glad he's not. :/

[still spruce]

Ah I see

[humble sequoia]

Lets just say he and everyone else were being jerks. 😦

Er... clears throat anyways, uh, what do you wanna chat about, Ash?

Morning Rat.

aye.

What might you perhaps like to discuss?

No one around to chat with?

Hellooooooooo?

Well, I guess just more time of me spending here doing nothing but waiting for other people to talk to...

[humble sequoia]

Man, there are so many Gryffindors and yet none of them are on!

[safe tendon]

They probably still taking a nap

[humble sequoia]

Sighs
Well, I guess the best thing I can do is just rabble about Ilvermorny while everyone's napping or something...

I mean come on, I woke up at 2:30am today. 😠

Ugh, if only sleep schedules weren't this difficult...

[spring pine]

-_-

[humble sequoia]

Heya Cat. :3

[young herald]

https://tenor.com/view/gift-nitro-nitro-free-free-nitro-discord-gif-20993620

[humble sequoia]

Morning Crown!

Morning Vic!

Hi! Any leaks about release date/time? 🙂

Holiday 2022.

Ahh right 😉 thx

Hey, it fills my desires when it comes to the game. XD

[spring pine]

hey:/

[humble sequoia]

Oh btw Vic, don't forget to join a House. :3

Heya Rat, where did you disappear to?

Yeesh, so many Gryffindors and yet so few around the server...

And everyone disappears again. 😐

i ain't disappearing i am playing path of exile 😄

Ah, that makes sense. Well enjoy your game. :3

[spring pine]

guy's should i cry?
bc cry to release the stress in my mind

[humble sequoia]

Why would you be crying? I mean, I get that your name is "Sad Cat" but still, the only thing really sad going on is that everyone is offline. :/

[spring pine]

no man i really stress but i wanna cry to let the stress out

sometime cry would help someone

[humble sequoia]

Well, if that's what you think would be the best decision, go ahead. I ain't stopping you.

[spring pine]

thank you my friend

[humble sequoia]

I myself mostly just listen to random music to reduce stress. :3

[spiral rover]

why are you sad

[humble sequoia]

Morning Kid!

[spiral rover]

good moring

[spring pine]

bc the stress of transfer exam

[spiral rover]

awww

[humble sequoia]

Yeah, that's something to definitely cry over. :/

don't be sad, it's better to be happy

[spiral rover]

the rat is rightt

[humble sequoia]

Indeed.

If only my problem wasn't having to deal with my sleep schedule. :/

[river siren]

Seven

7

[humble sequoia]

Morning Smithy. :3

[river siren]

Hi

Seven

[humble sequoia]

So what's going to be the first thing you bring up here?

[river siren]

Ehhhhhh

[humble sequoia]

Oh, are you Canadian to?

[river siren]

Why is among us us but not us beacuse us is america

[river siren]

How did you know im croatian

[humble sequoia]

You said "Eh". A term mostly used in English sentences by only Canadians.

[river siren]

Oh whait

[terse dirge]

Does anyone know if there will be a collector's edition of the game or not?

[river siren]

You sead canadian

Never mind

[river siren]

Dont

[humble sequoia]

Not yet, Puff. Sorry.

[terse dirge]

Sad

I hope they will

[humble sequoia]

Yes Smithy, we all can see your Username is "User7".

[river siren]

Not that

I just hate the number 7
Whenever there was a test and my teacher gives a math problem with the number 7 i just die from inside

[humble sequoia]

Well, be thankful you at least still have school. 😦

[river siren]

I dont

School ended here in bosnia

Its summer time

[humble sequoia]

Yeah well, I'm 25. So yeah.

7 years since I ended my school.

[river siren]

7

[humble sequoia]

Yes, Smithy. 7.

[river siren]

Ayo mr.white look im in hogwarts

Jesse how did you end up in hogwarts

[humble sequoia]

I myself took the time to generate a UK male name for use in any form of Hogwarts RP.

[river siren]

Ayo mr.white they have a 101% (probebly cant say it here)

Omg jesse thats amazing

[humble sequoia]

Why exactly are you calling me "Jesse"?

[river siren]

Im not calling you jesse

[humble sequoia]

Well, from what I see, there isn't anyone on atm named Jesse.

[river siren]

Its a braking bad reference
The ones who get it get it

[humble sequoia]

Yeah well, I've never seen Braking Bad.

[river siren]

I reccomend it

[humble sequoia]

Thanks, I'll put it on my bucket list thats almost as long as the city I live in. :/

[river siren]

Its amazing
You also have a braking bad movie
El capino

And better call saul witch is a prequel as far as i know(havent watched it yet)

[humble sequoia]

*Recommend
*Which

Just sayin'.

[river siren]

Hey its not my fault that englich is my third language

[humble sequoia]

I'm not saying your mistakes are wrong, people who have English as their first language still make mistakes that bother me.

Heck, I still have mistakes all the time due to how fast I type!

To make a joke referencing the Chuck Norris memes, "My typing makes the speed of light wish it was faster!".

[humble sequoia]

The only real drugs I need are speed! >:)

Wait...

No wait, that doesn't work the way I wanted that sentence to work. 😦

Man, if only I could at least chat with some of those Mods... honestly at least chatting with them would be something, and we all know something is more than nothing. :/

[patent peak]

i would love to chat but im really busy with exams atm 🥲

gotta code 4 algorithms

[humble sequoia]

Welp. I guess that just means back to being lonely.

[humble sequoia]

https://tenor.com/view/modern-family-goaway-squirt-bottle-shoo-gif-4979455

lonely bad, no lonely.

Well unless you're going to start chatting with me, Bread, I'm pretty sure I'm still on my own.

I suppose i could, but much depends on your conversational prowess, and topics of mutual interest. 😄

Well, I'd definitely let you choose the conversation. That is, if you'd prefer that.

Most conversations I bring up tend to not make it very far. :/

Well, do you talk with the intent to continue doing so, or do you talk to merely quiet the boredom?

Well, I prefer to talk with the purpose of continuing conversation...

It definitely is the preference. 😛

Played anything fun today so far?

Looks at current time where I am
Er... Bread? I um... kinda woke up at 2:30am...

~4h 30m ago.

My question still stands, have you played anything since then? 😮

Honestly, I've mostly spent my time hanging around here.

Interesting, after i woke up i turned on Spotify and played a few games.

Music is one of the best ways to start any day.

hi

[sudden trail]

Hello, welcome to the server!

[humble sequoia]

Morning TNT! Don't forget to join a House!

[spring pine]

phew

i'm out of stress

[humble sequoia]

Feeling better, Cat?

[spring pine]

yeh better now man:v

[humble sequoia]

Good to hear. :3

[spring pine]

when listening to the music i'm starting to think about the wizarding world and i'm glad to be in the wizarding community

[humble sequoia]

Well right now I'm listening to the soundtrack made for the first Fantastic Beasts movie, and man, that scene where Tina takes Newt into MACUSA is so epic. :3

[spring pine]

:))

[humble sequoia]

Shame Tina isn't an Auror during that scene. If only they knew Credence was a Wizard the entire time...

[spring pine]

i wish tina have more scene to shine

[humble sequoia]

Honestly, I mostly just wanted more of Ilvermorny, but hey, I guess that's just how I am.

[spring pine]

okay

[humble sequoia]

Shrugs

I mean, come on, we at least know Ilvermorny is the Wizarding school for North America, not just the USA.

Er, Rebel, one thing we aren't really allowed to do here is advertise ourselves.

[timid abyss]

Ok

[humble sequoia]

Just saying.

[timid abyss]

Not really advertising but k.

[humble sequoia]

Yeah well, if you want to get really technical, even me just mentioning my project on Ilvermorny I've been working on is technically advertising.

So yeah, just trying to keep you away from any problems with the Mods.

[timid abyss]

Thanks appreciate it. Just trying to give it away before it expires. Not like I’m asking for people to follow me and stuff. But I do appreciate the look out. So thank you.

[humble sequoia]

Yeesh, still only 8am?

Jeez, today's really not been very good so far for me...

[vivid anchor]

so much sass

[humble sequoia]

Yeah yeah whatever you say, Dan.

yo wassup

Oh and also
Morning Dan!

[vivid anchor]

it's afternoon for me

but good morning

[humble sequoia]

Yeah well, it's still 8am where I am. 😐

[vivid anchor]

Have you got the day planned?

[humble sequoia]

Considering I woke up at 2:30am where I am, after going to bed at 11pm, I'm thinking I'll spend the day on the HL Server so I have some more to do than just sit around doing nothing. :/

[vivid anchor]

That's cool, I haven't done much today either and it's already the afternoon

This may not be for you

But you should get into playing an MMO, something you can either afk or actively play

At least that way, when you have free time and you're not doing much, you can progress something, even if its just a game

[humble sequoia]

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, Dan but I already play WoW: Classic plenty.

[vivid anchor]

Oh, it could be worse, the sale between microsoft and activision could fail

[humble sequoia]

Yeah well, aside from this being the first I've even heard of this, there is always chance of bad.

[vivid anchor]

Hyh

huh

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/newsbeat-60042409

[humble sequoia]

One of the main reasons I'm keeping my expectations lower than the average for HL.

[vivid anchor]

I picked a reliable new source for you :D

[humble sequoia]

Well thank you for the thought, but I don't really ever click links on Discord...

[vivid anchor]

My efforts have gone into vain

[humble sequoia]

Well, I apologize.

Really, the only thing I really did last night was generate a UK style male name for a potential Hogwarts RP Character based off of me. The name is Haris Holland.

[vivid anchor]

ngl, that doesn't sound very english to me

and im english

[humble sequoia]

Yeah well, it was randomly generated on a website, so it's most likely not EXACTLY english. Don't forget, Dan, I live in Canada.

[vivid anchor]

1. What if you aren't allowed to name your character. 2. I've never met a person called Haris in England 3. What other names did you have as a backup?

idk why I numbered them lolololol

[humble sequoia]

1: It's not based off of the game itself, I mean Discord RPs on other servers.
2: Yeah? Well oh well.
3: I think I remember "Austin Fisher" and "Jamie Harper".

Also it was a Fantasy name generator.

[vivid anchor]

Discord Role play servers? That's a thing?

Austin Fisher/ Jamie Harper sound much better to me

[humble sequoia]

Yes Dan, it's been a thing pretty much since Discord was made.

[glass meteor]

Jim Hopper!

[humble sequoia]

Welcome Clambie.

[outer quarry]

Algum BR ai kkk

[vivid anchor]

What is the most recent role play you've done on discord

[humble sequoia]

I know they're on Discord, I just haven't done many myself.

[glass meteor]

its been a minute for me

we have one in our friend channels

[humble sequoia]

Oh by the way, Clambie, don't forget to join a House.

[glass meteor]

ok

its called D&D Bot

[vivid anchor]

Have you played as an alternative voldemort and killed off all your fellow roleplayers?

[humble sequoia]

No. I myself am too loyal and honourable to be any form of bad guy.

[vivid anchor]

Being bad causes more drama though, it makes the story more exciting

[humble sequoia]

I know how writing stories works.

[vivid anchor]

Oh? Have you written any stories?

[humble sequoia]

None that I'd share with you considering I think they all suck.

[vivid anchor]

Oh 😦

I read a lot of manga/manhwa these days

[humble sequoia]

Sorry, I'd just rather not make you suffer with stories like that. 😦

I mean come on, that short-story I did of Picqury's first year could have been so much better if I just put some more time and effort into it...

[vivid anchor]

Why not do it now

You seem to have time and you got all the effort you'll ever need

[humble sequoia]

Why should I write any story if no one would read it even if I did post it?

Good point don’t do anything unless it gets public recognition

[glass meteor]

I have selected my house based on my fan club account

[humble sequoia]

Well then, in that case Clambie, welcome!

[red moat]

You already wrote it without even wanting to post it. So I don't see how that is stopping you now

[vivid anchor]

You don't know that, you just publish it on a bunch of websites and someone will surely read it

[glass meteor]

they all make great points Topaz If you know it needs work and where the work needs to be improved only you can change what you already wrote

[humble sequoia]

you can’t work under the pretense of nothing I do matters so I choose to do nothing

[glass meteor]

just saying you have to make time to do new things

[humble sequoia]

But... the more time I spend working on projects the less time I have to spend here...

[red moat]

No one on their deathbed will ever be like 'Man I wish I spent more time on discord'

[glass meteor]

got to find the medium maybe to two days a week to just yourself

[vivid anchor]

I wish... I spent more time on discord

[humble sequoia]

specifically the hogwarts legacy pre release server

[glass meteor]

I just got laid off after 6 years. I'm applying for jobs Monday through Thursday Friday I go an do something just enjoy my day

[vivid anchor]

What a horrible time to not have a job

[glass meteor]

haha

[humble sequoia]

I've already made more friends here on HL then I have in over 7 years. And I've only really been on this server for about a week and a half.

[glass meteor]

eh I was extremely underpaid for my work anyways

it was the mortgage industry too soo

[vivid anchor]

Most people are, that or get taken advantage of, as a freelancer I can relate 😂

[humble sequoia]

yessir next job is not gonna be straight evil

[glass meteor]

point is you have to make time for yourself or you wont grow as a person

[vivid anchor]

I've had clients that undercut me on what we agreed on, at the last minute, just for me to accept the new settled amount, because yknow, what the hell am i gonna do with the project I specifically created for them

[red moat]

Not let them have it

[vivid anchor]

And if I upset that client, I could lose future work 🤷

[glass meteor]

its one of those situations were you still cant turn it down because it still good work and we all need paid but come one have some respect

[red moat]

Well screw'em if they go back on a deal

[glass meteor]

it doesnt work that way sometimes

[red moat]

Did you have a contract?

Always make a contract

[vivid anchor]

Can't, cause they'll just find someone else who will do it

[red moat]

Yeah, I would let them at that point 😅

[vivid anchor]

They could hire someone full time, but it's cheaper to hire a freelance and its beneficial to me as I then could have multiple projects going on at 1 time

Only time when I get contracts if they insist on a none disclosure agreement

[red moat]

I wouldn't do a job without it, unless I would be fine with also doing the work for free

At least that's how I did it when I worked freelance

[humble sequoia]

Glances over at bed

[red moat]

Don't let people boss you around too much, have some pride in the work you do.

[vivid anchor]

it's like clambie said, good money and we all need to get paid 😂

[humble sequoia]

...Should I go back to bed and get some more sleep or should I just stay up like I planned to so that I feel more tired when I do go to sleep at 10:30pm?

[vivid anchor]

Your sleeping pattern gonna be ruined for a while topaz

You sleep at 10:30, you gonna wake up at like 3-4am 😂

[humble sequoia]

Trust me, Dan, I already know. 😠

But still, these sleep times are recommended by my doctor. It's mostly something to try and get me to have less seizures.

[vivid anchor]

Oh that sounds bad, only way I can relate is that I sometimes faint

Sometimes I just go super cold, start to sweat and boom, I'm gone

[humble sequoia]

Yeah well, we all have problems to deal with.

[vivid anchor]

True, waking up in pain is always a good time

[humble sequoia]

Whenever I have a seizure I tend to end up chomping my teeth on my tongue making it brittle. Sometimes it's real bad, sometimes it's barely 2 days.

[vivid anchor]

Do you have family close by?

[humble sequoia]

I live in my family's house, so yes. It's already incredibly difficult to get an apartment around here...

[vivid anchor]

True

Minimum wage jobs, full time, doesn't even cover the costs of rent/bills anymore 😂

[humble sequoia]

Honestly I'm glad my AISH gives me enough a month to pay the rent my dad makes me pay, which is 500$ a month.

[vivid anchor]

Is $500 a week?

[humble sequoia]

$500 a month.

[late edge]

$500/month isn't bad tbh most around where I live is easily $1k+

[humble sequoia]

Yeah well, I'm just happy to give some money to help the family keep going.

[vivid anchor]

We going to get to a point where the government are going to have to give everyone a place to stay and for everyone to have food/water freely available to them, in my opinion

Probably won't happen in our life time, but it'll eventually occur

[humble sequoia]

Maybe eventually, but definitely not in my lifetime.

[late edge]

We'll run out of potable water before that happens tbh, water wars soon

[humble sequoia]

Just strain all the salt out of ocean water. Problem solved.

[late edge]

Can't just strain it, to do it in large quantities you have to boil it which would cost a lot as fuel prices go up

[vivid anchor]

fuel prices already expensive 😂 😂

[humble sequoia]

You do all realize that these things won't happen until we've at least hit 50, right?

That's already 25 years from now, twice my current age.

[late edge]

Uh... That's not necessarily true, it could be a lot sooner

And yeah but they're still going up in price

[vivid anchor]

We in a perfect storm rn, where everything is going wrong

[late edge]

Yessir

[humble sequoia]

Sighs I'm just gonna go back and get some more rest. Waking up at 2:30am was already bad for me.

[vivid anchor]

oh no

[humble sequoia]

See you all in a few hours.

[humble bramble]

What month do you guys think the game will release?

[cold turtle]

November mabye?

[thorn summit]

<@&755190193367023772> sus link

[true cedar]

thank you

[orchid cedar]

Guys, what do you think about the latest announcement about Hogwarts Legacy being supported in Nintendo Switch? You think it’ll work out?

[red moat]

Sure, why wouldn't it

[humble sequoia]

👋

[orchid cedar]

Mmm, I think it’ll do it, but am afraid the quality and the gaming experience may get spoiled if you try and run it on Dock mode, on TV… I’m kind of baffled because I‘ve been considering buying the Switch, but would get really upset if Hogwarts Legacy gets spoiled in it

[red moat]

I mean, the graphical fidelity will definitely be lower than other places, but up to you if that ruins it for you

[orchid cedar]

Actually it doesn’t… just thinking of FPS and performance issues

[red moat]

It'll probably target a lower fps

but might be some hitches depending on the scenario you are in

[late edge]

It doesn't look like a very intense game to run... It should be fine

[twin halo]

Hellooooooo everyone

[humble sequoia]

'ello!

[twin halo]

How are you doing?

[halcyon snow]

HEYY WASSUP

[thorn summit]

https://twitter.com/NextGenPlayer/status/1533796192651460610?t=ojbsjBUN1Yof53AHYPUgBQ&s=19

Hogwarts legacy was announced so I keep my hopes up

[humble sequoia]

Hey DUUUUDE WATUP

[red moat]

Where was it announced?

[humble sequoia]

No unless its really bad in terms of graphics

[spiral rover]

how

[thorn summit]

what do you guys mean

the game IS announced

we know it will launch

[spiral rover]

no i mean ik that that like ween

[vivid anchor]

but that's not 100% true, it may not launch

[red moat]

I thought you meant announced for Summer Games Fest

[thorn summit]

nope

[vivid anchor]

It could be delayed, something could happen from it launching

[spiral rover]

idk what she is talking about seats it was already told also giving it may come out sooner

highly do not think they will push it back again

aguest,july, decmber, novmber thats my guess

and seeing they already have a place holder on steam it can not be to long away

[orchid cedar]

😦 that’s what is baffling me about getting the nintendo switch, as I’m not going to give up on playing hogwarts legacy properly

[spiral rover]

ya this game is going to have a faical copy so the grafcts are not there

[humble sequoia]

Good evening everyone

[stone laurel]

Y r ppl speculating about a delay when no delays have been announced?

As stands the release date is Holiday Season 2022 (Nov/Dec)

[vivid anchor]

You are speculating too

[stone laurel]

I wouldn’t get for the switch personally rather PC or new gen console to make the most of the graphics

[stone laurel]

It’s been announced … no speculation.

[vivid anchor]

It didn't say november/december, it just said holiday season

It could be in october

[spiral rover]

in deed

[vivid anchor]

Thus, you are speculating

[glass eagle]

that's not the holiday season

[vivid anchor]

Halloween is a holiday even

[stone laurel]

Holiday season is Nov/Dec in the US

October 31st? Halloween

[hexed shore]

In some languages it said Winter

[glass eagle]

the holiday season is thanksgiving till the new year

[hexed shore]

Most folks dont have thanksgiving so it is pretty confusing for some haha - but yeah November - December is what we're thinkkkkkkkking

Technically those months arent confirmed either though

[wind cairn]

Being announced so late in the year also means they can push it back, tho from the trailer they still seem optimistic about holidays 2022

[hexed shore]

Welcome back Malus

[wind cairn]

Greetings swift

Whats new

[glass meteor]

whats the word on the pvp ? still out of the question for now?

[vivid anchor]

Single player game by all accounts

[glass eagle]

pretty sure they've said it'll be strictly single player

[humble sequoia]

Hi@vivid anchor

[vivid anchor]

Hello @humble sequoia

[humble sequoia]

How was your day?

[glass meteor]

😦

[glass eagle]

tbf if they concentrate on it being a really good single-player game I don't mind

pvp is a whole other element

[vivid anchor]

My day has been amazing, I had yummy food to eat, I've been on the computer the whole day, doing internet things and that's about it 😂

I tried to hype it up, just a normal day lol

[glass meteor]

at least make it an MMO to interact with others and give a dueling ability

[vivid anchor]

How has your day been so far, Captain9478

[humble sequoia]

It wasn't perfect but it was good

[glass meteor]

I need the people interaction

[vivid anchor]

Could always be worse

[vivid anchor]

I am speculating here, but I think they are banking on the nostalgia of the older harry potter games for this game to sell big

[glass meteor]

well single player games can be hard at times when you battle with depression

[vivid anchor]

Just don't put some much expectations on yourself, play the game a couple hours, hell even 30 minutes a day and do other stuff? Don't push yourself to do something that's unhealthy to you

[wind cairn]

I think they're just as passionate about making the game as the fans are excited to play it

[glass meteor]

good point but I dont typically I tell myself to push to play more its more of the self deprivation

[wind cairn]

this is their first game, if they do well they'll cement love of the fandom all across the world, and likely even consider making more

[glass meteor]

im sure ill give it a try

good point

[vivid anchor]

They are probably predicting it to do well, but yep, if its successful and makes them lots of money, then the logical thing to do is make more of the same thing, till it dies

[wind cairn]

As long as the first and second focus is quality i would love more games

They can take as much time as they need

[vivid anchor]

True, people are nostalgia over the original harry potter games, exploring the castle, doing stuff and this game does all that, but better

But if were to see a sequel, it'll have to be the same thing, to meet the standards of the nostalgia, but then it'll be like your daily cod game 😂

[orchid cedar]

oh, if only we had a GTA-like open world concerning Hogwarts, Hogsmead and Muggle places, as well as certain places from other countries… durmstrang, beauxbatons… Marvelousness

[wild niche]

[orchid cedar]

~on-line be like 10+ players at Godric’s Hollow staring at Potters’ house for one hour or more thinking about where it all has begun~

[spiral mica]

Goodnight all 😁

[dreamy ingot]

fear of this game flopping keeps me up sometimes

[humble sequoia]

Heyo

[glass eagle]

how do u think that would work?

[humble sequoia]

I don’t think it’ll flop even if it doesn’t meet the critical acclaim of reviews we all hope it to be

[glass eagle]

cuz if it was just in the same setting that'd be a bit bland

[humble sequoia]

It’ll sell based on it being wizarding world

[dreamy ingot]

aaaaaaaaa

[glass eagle]

it'll sell but that doesn't mean it'll be good

[humble sequoia]

Ye

[glass eagle]

they're really going into uncharted territory

[humble sequoia]

Nate?

[glass eagle]

but it does look amazing from what we've seen

[glass eagle]

I thought of that when I was typing it 😂

[humble sequoia]

Lol

Hogwarts Uncharted: The Lost Legacy

[orchid cedar]

Hahahahhahaha

[glass eagle]

I guess what i'm hoping is they dont stretch the game too thin with loads of different stuff

[humble sequoia]

It does looks mega packed

[glass eagle]

if they focus on the basics and get it right it'll surely be a great game despite the extras

[glass eagle]

yeah which kinda worries me

but it's been in development for ages

[humble sequoia]

Yeah it was delayed which means they must care about it’s quality and making sure it’s right for us to play

[orchid cedar]

Guys, have they said anything about how long the lore will take in average to be played?

[humble sequoia]

Lore?

[wind cairn]

What do you mean?

[glass eagle]

like theyd surely have to change a lot of stuff for a sequel right

but idk how they would if it was still in hogwarts

[wind cairn]

that can go back further, legacy starts in 1890 on the day of the new school term at hogwarts

Its a untapped world of lore, locations and stories they could do

[orchid cedar]

length of the story they’ve put into the game

[glass eagle]

I wonder if there'd be a game set out of hogwarts

[wind cairn]

yes, legacy.

[glass eagle]

no one's really explored the idea of adult witches/wizards in a story

[glass eagle]

ik a lot of it is but it's still the main setting

[wind cairn]

ur gonna see a massive world, of locations only mentioned or eluded to in the books/films

[glass eagle]

I mean like with hogwarts not as the main focus

[wind cairn]

Ahhh i think the devs specifically said that the thing that binds it all together is hogwarts itself

So for the time being i think its their anchor point, tho i would love to see the other magic schools, maybe in a next game?

[glass eagle]

ye or even like a game following an adult witch/wizard

with the ministry of magic as the main setting or something

would be cool

[twin halo]

Helllloooo

I have successfully made it home from Spain

[dreamy ingot]

cough fantastic beasts cough

[twin halo]

Jacob is the coolest (new) character in Fantstic Beasts

and it's not even close

[wind cairn]

I think they've looked at all the books, movies and the new FB to see what they can incorporate

Its why we see the demiguise etc in HL

They're trying to unify all the fans and give them a game some have been waiting 20 years for

[twin halo]

it's a mountain of a task, but atleast it looks like the devs have passion for the project

[wind cairn]

Yeah and thats giving me hope that they'll create a game that matches and even exceeds fan expectations

[twin halo]

nothing is better than a team making something that they would want to play instead of the usual corporate sellout

[wind cairn]

offline, no MP and no Microtransactions either

Good move they're showing they really care about more than just money

[orchid cedar]

true story

[keen owl]

Indeed. There is so little of this these days.

[humble sequoia]

Yawns Jeez, after last night I needed to go back to bed...

So no? No one around?

[glass eagle]

we try to ignore that

I feel like FB is kinda diff tho

[humble sequoia]

FB is different in a lot of ways from the HP movies, but, that's what makes them better in pretty much every way.

[glass eagle]

you really think so?

I've not seen the 3rd one yet but can't say I enjoyed the 2nd one much

[humble sequoia]

Hey, I'm my own Canadian, I'm allowed to have my own opinions.
Also, I haven't seen the 3rd yet. I know bits about it, but that's about it. :/

[glass eagle]

the first was pretty good but idk grindelwald felt kinda boring

[humble sequoia]

Honestly, that's literally what I think to. XD

[glass eagle]

I think the original films did a decent job of representing the books

can't say I liked everything they did though, like making ron some kind of idiot for comic relief

[humble sequoia]

FB1 is my favourite WW movie ever made, so yeah. Call it being introduced more to NA in the WW and yes, the OG films did indeed rep the books just fine.

[glass eagle]

to be fair nostalgia probably affects my opinion of the original books and films as well

[twin halo]

The Grindelwald scene in the deathly hallows wasn't up to par, lot of discrepancies between the two

[humble sequoia]

To be completely honest, I myself would rather learn more of Ilvermorny than learn anything more of Hogwarts. :/

Oh, hi Onion. :3

[twin halo]

Hiya Topaz!

How's yourself?

[humble sequoia]

Still fixing that Schedule, but whatever I must do...

[twin halo]

Sleep schedule?

[humble sequoia]

Indeed.

[twin halo]

disgustingly hard things to fix

[humble sequoia]

Yeah...

[twin halo]

Well wee bit of advice for you tonight

I know you're in Albert

[humble sequoia]

*Alberta

[twin halo]

But try going to bed a little earlier tonight, even by an hour

it was autocorrect

[wind cairn]

U dont need sleep if you have stronk coffee

[humble sequoia]

Well then autocorrect was being stupid.

[twin halo]

I have no reason to ever type alberta

but I do have a good friend Al, or Albert for long

[wind cairn]

maybe alberta is auto correct's ex gf and he misses her

[twin halo]

Autocorrect is a woman, 100%

[humble sequoia]

Maybe, Malus, maybe.

[rocky lodge]

Definitely

[twin halo]

It just makes sense though

[rocky lodge]

Because women are always correct ? 👀

[late edge]

[humble sequoia]

Heya Dylan

[twin halo]

I didn't assume, I'm being factual

[late edge]

Henlo

[rocky lodge]

I believe you’re incorrect : ( 😭

[twin halo]

I don't wanna have to name names here but my mam is wrong all the time, she won't admit it but she's wrong, still love her though.

[wild niche]

[rocky lodge]

She’d disagree, and she’d be correct 😌

[humble sequoia]

Black, are you ever going to actually make a post here on the chatroom?

[twin halo]

Nah no chance, absolutely bogus

she doesn't like mitski

and I personally think she's wrong for that one

[humble sequoia]

So um, to continue conversation... what exactly does everyone see their Ilvermorny House as?

No? Does no one here even know what the Ilvermorny Houses are and what they are considered to represent?
Horned Serpent - Scholars/Mind
Thunderbird - Adventurers/Soul
Wampus - Warriors/Body
Pukwudgie - Healers/Heart
There, in case anyone needed that...

[glass meteor]

any word on any beta?

[humble sequoia]

Oh wait, you said beta, not data. At least I stopped myself.
No, no word on a beta.

Sorry for being the bearer of bad news. 😦

[glass meteor]

awww

[humble sequoia]

Sure, I'd love a beta myself, but still, I'm keeping my expectations lower in case of any problems. :/

Gotta be careful in case of a Cyberpunking.

Hey, I'd just rather be less disappointed than if it does happen really disappointed.

I mean sure, I enjoyed Cyberpunk more than everyone else, but meh.

[grim marsh]

agh its a cold one today

[humble sequoia]

Afternoon Elora!

For us here in Canada, it finally rained! 😄

Er, hello? Elora? You here? Or did you literally just leave after one post...

[wind cairn]

sorry mate they dont allow self promotion here

that includes links to channels

[hexed shore]

@icy hull Yep, I'm afraid no promotion of social media here

[icy hull]

ia m sorr

sorry

[hexed shore]

All good, it happens

[icy hull]

❤️

[humble sequoia]

Oh, did in my brief discussion with my dad did I miss something?

[hexed shore]

discussions with parents can be the best

Mine with my mom ended up with us cutting each others hair this evening

[humble sequoia]

Ballin'. I myself got a fancy haircut/shave last week.

[hexed shore]

fresh

[humble sequoia]

Feels great to no longer be my dog. 😐

[hexed shore]

Tbf my dog could use one hell of a trim too

He's floofy rn

[humble sequoia]

No kidding. XD

Sips timmies

Man, for a day that rained a lot, I'm getting really sweaty...

[hexed shore]

Humid air

Sucks

[humble sequoia]

Yeah yeah

If only I had more I could do with Ilvermorny...

Or at least more people I could do the work with...

Oh wait
Swift
You're a Mod? I didn't notice until just now. Huh.

Sips timmies

Well, here I am again all by myself.
Sings All by myself...

[wind cairn]

Its a slow day

There isnt much news and everyone is working or sleeping atm

[humble sequoia]

Yeah well, not me. :/

[normal stone]

How's the Biebs Brew? 😜

[humble sequoia]

How... did you know about that? <_<

[normal stone]

I'm Canadian. We know everything to do with Timmies.

[humble sequoia]

Oh, right. Sorry. Bad short term memory, great long term memory. The Biebs is... well, Biebs. :/

[normal stone]

S'all good, man!

[humble sequoia]

Man, its so humid after that rain today. ><

[normal stone]

I mean, technically, Biebs is his own nationality. Canada may or may not have disowned him. 😛

[humble sequoia]

Honestly last I checked Bieber became USA after a while of his time singing.

[normal stone]

That could be. I'm not interested enough if verifying that. 😛

[humble sequoia]

Granted, unlike most of the internet, I don't really care that much about Biebs and whatever he does since well, I don't really listen to his music?

[normal stone]

Likewise.

[humble sequoia]

Idk I just don't really, have any negative feels for Biebs.

[normal stone]

I don't even hate him anymore, as I did when younger. I just have zero interest in supporting him ever.

[humble sequoia]

Honestly his songs aren't anywhere as bad as other people say they are.

[normal stone]

I mean... I won't deny his songs have made for great parodies. 😉

[humble sequoia]

Well, yeah, I guess you aren't wrong about that...

Finishes Timmies Mmm, that was a good mocha. :3

[normal stone]

I surprisingly like the Café Mocha. 😺

[humble sequoia]

Hey, after all it's pretty much just Hot Choco mixed with Coffee. :3

[normal stone]

Indeed.

[humble sequoia]

So it's just basically dark hot choco.

And, well, I myself prefer Dark Choco to Milk Choco. ;3

[normal stone]

Not sure what the diff is.

[humble sequoia]

Milk is more diluted, Dark is more cocao.

[normal stone]

Ah...

[humble sequoia]

So yeah, Dark is just more bitter.

Preferences I guess.

Or wait, was it cocoa? I always get Cocoa and Cocao mixed with one another...

I thought you said my name then I realised you are on about chocolate 😐

Sorry, but I mostly would refer to you as "Horizon", sorry dude.

It alright 😅

I mean come on, wouldn't calling you "Dark" make someone think I was being racist or something?

maybe but I'm also use to people calling me tho so ye lol

w/e.

[twin halo]

Haven't cut my hair in two and a bit years now

[humble sequoia]

Well, good haircuts always feel great.

[twin halo]

meh, opinions I don't like people touching my head

thank god long hair suits me

[humble sequoia]

Eh, I myself prefer shorter hair.

Why is everyone a slyth

us at ravenclaw are all paul dano with all the riddles we do

Wow, that Malus post really got a lot of reactions...

slytherins are the most vocal on the server, despite being only the 2nd biggest house, its generally where all the cool kids are

[tight lava]

[trim sedge]

It’s true tho Slytherin are Independent and loyal Gryffindor is brave and social raven claw is smart and independent and I have a hufflepuff is umm there and kind

[wind cairn]

the puffs are great, they tend to get along with everyone, they're the balance house

[tight lava]

puffs have loyalty, justice, patience, and are hard working

[ivory iron]

Exkalyy

[trim sedge]

Sorry forgot to say there kind

Umm and kinda just that

[trim sedge]

Sorry

Didn’t see ya

[humble sequoia]

@trim sedge Actually Salty, you got that somewhat wrong.
Gryffindor is honourable.
Ravenclaw is knowledgable.
Hufflepuff is loyal
Slytherin is independent.

[trim sedge]

Ehh k ig

[tight lava]

also they're right next to the kitchens, so they're also great at smuggling food to their friends

[raven ferry]

Since my request has gone ignored let me be more precise... Let's stop with the house wars and insulting one other all together

[humble sequoia]

Not to mention the Hogwarts houses aren't half as good as the Ilvermorny ones but whatever...

[late edge]

Pog I'm smart cuz I wanted the blue color

[trim sedge]

Also raven claw has a love for art

[humble sequoia]

Salty, I was just giving the general definitions of the houses of Hogwarts.

[trim sedge]

Mmh

[humble sequoia]

All houses are great in thay own way!!

I'm not gonna get my post taken down just cause I typed 3000 words to describe the entire houses. 😦

Indeed, Horizon.

[wind cairn]

every house has something to offer, and everyone likely has traits of more than one house, bravery of gryffindor and the slytherin slight disregard for rules is what made HP great IMO

[humble sequoia]

Brb

[twin halo]

"Slight" lol

[wind cairn]

just a leeeetle bit 🤏

[humble sequoia]

Alright back

[twin halo]

for that blatant lie, get weezered

[tight lava]

i feel like the houses are more similar than they appear to be,, moreso because a person going into slytherin isn't going to have absolutely 0 puff traits, and 0 claw traits. people just don't work like that. but that person values their slytherin traits the most 🤔

[wind cairn]

u cant make a omelette without breaking a few eggs

[tight lava]

what if you shake the eggs?

[humble sequoia]

I mean come on, Clouds, why wouldn't that be how it works? Don't you remember what HP went through when he had the Sorting Hat? He pretty much chose his own house because of how "well balanced" he was. :/

[wind cairn]

unless ur planning on convincing it to come out on its own ur still gonna need to break it

[tight lava]

you could cook it and just leave it inside

dunno why. but its possible

[wind cairn]

now i remember why i used to worry about u

[humble sequoia]

Yeah Clouds, but then you couldn't make the Omelette.

[tight lava]

sometimes you have to eggsperiment

[late edge]

Houses are a scam, some hat just sepperating students based on personality traits when those traits change a lot over time

[wind cairn]

groans*

[humble sequoia]

Yeah, but the thing we're trying to do isn't have Hard Boiled Eggs, it's making an omelette!

[wind cairn]

Well the hat wont have to guess where to put me

[humble sequoia]

It will for me, Malus. It will for me...

[tight lava]

it knows before you step into the castle

[wind cairn]

Its just gonna yell out SLYTHERIN when i walk into the great hall

[tight lava]

part of me wants to debate the hat

[wind cairn]

right?

[tight lava]

hat stall 🤩

[wind cairn]

i wanna go Not ravenclaw. Not ravenclaw.

But its just gonna tell me "oh honey there is nothing ravenclaw in here, just sawdust"

[humble sequoia]

Hat has trouble deciding which house to put me in
Me: Well, maybe you could put me in Hufflepuff?
Hat: Alright, but only cause you recommended it...

[tight lava]

i disagree, but you are definitely a slytherin

[wind cairn]

I'll take that as a compliment

[tight lava]

it was 🤷‍♀️

[humble sequoia]

Or was it? <_<

[wind cairn]

and yes, its known officially as "hat stall" where the hat cant place u

this happened to Minerva McGonagall

[humble sequoia]

Oh really? That's neat. I would've figured it would happen with more than just Harry. XD

McGonagall did turn out as a real good Gryffindor in the end.

[wind cairn]

the hat can read ur mind, it wanted to throw harry in slytherin cause it picked up Voldemort's traits inside harry

[humble sequoia]

You know what, I was going to mention something, but I realized you all wouldn't care if I did say it so w/e.

[wind cairn]

u'd be surprised, im a good listener... for a slytherin

[humble sequoia]

You sure? Cause it has to do with Cursed Child...

[wind cairn]

this is general so go ahead

[humble sequoia]

Alright, but only cause you asked.
Harry's child was put into Slytherin and they have NO Voldemort in them. Just sayin.

[wind cairn]

Hogwarts legacy pulls from the novels, the movies and other sources

U should know the hat also takes ur opinion in mind

[ruby basin]

I mean Slytherin isn’t a evil house, not everyone in Slytherin is going to turn into voldemort

[keen owl]

Indeed.

[humble sequoia]

I know Slytherin isn't an evil house, Mike! They're wrongly accused by the fans like Street Breed is!

[tight lava]

i removed c.c. from my brain

[ivory iron]

Exkaly

[wind cairn]

Peter Pettigrew was gryffindor...

[humble sequoia]

Indeed, Malus!

[ruby basin]

some still might turn into voldy tho

[ivory iron]

And he truned bad

[glass eagle]

rowling kinda made it seem evil at times tho

through harry's lens at least

[wind cairn]

exactly so its not the house that matters, its the person

[keen owl]

Merlin was a Slytherin.

[ivory iron]

Qulilller was revencave and he had vodemord at his head

[humble sequoia]

Plus according to Rowling there were more Death Eaters that were in Ravenclaw than Slytherin in general.

[glass eagle]

rowling prob retconned a lot of the evil from slytherin tbf

[humble sequoia]

Plus, don't forget, Leta LeStrange wasn't evil in any way, and she was like, Newts bff!

[wind cairn]

Skytherin do admire ambition, resourcefulness and personal gain

[ruby basin]

We’re there any Gryffindor death eaters ?

[tight lava]

pettigrew

[humble sequoia]

Peter Pettigrew.

[keen owl]

Wormtail.

[ruby basin]

Owh yeah

[tight lava]

did the puffs have any death eaters 🤔

[humble sequoia]

Not that are known of.

[ivory iron]

Not faumuse and know

[wind cairn]

it depends on person to person, like slughorn said "if there was evil, it was buried deep"

alot can change a man, trauma, revenge, a desire to break free

even fear.. well especially fear

[keen owl]

Slughorn, Narcissa Malfoy and Snape were all good Slytherins.

[wind cairn]

^

[tight lava]

draco..?

[keen owl]

He became good later.

He didn’t have the heart to actually hurt Harry or Dumbledore. He was just tough talk.

[tight lava]

yeah.

[wind cairn]

Draco was just lost torn between was he wanted, what his father wanted and what was expected from him

in the end he choice right tho, so i consider him redeemed

[humble sequoia]

Sorry about that, had to get a knife for my dinner.

[tight lava]

feels bad for any half-blood or muggleborn slytherin kids at the time. we didn't hear much about them, but i'm sure they existed

[keen owl]

He decided to follow his conscience rather than what was drilled into his head growing up.

[keen owl]

Snape.

Snape was half-blood. His father was a muggle.

He was fine. He even created a nickname for it.

[wind cairn]

Lineage doesn't mean power, Hermione proved that

[humble sequoia]

Heh, I know Severus. Trust me how could I even forget that scene where he said to Harry "I'm the Half-Blood Prince."

[keen owl]

Voldemort was also half-blood.

The same as Snape he had a muggle father.

[keen owl]

Great scene.

[wind cairn]

I still theorize we're descended from merlin in hogwarts legacy

[humble sequoia]

@keen owl Up top. High five

[keen owl]

What makes you think that?

[tight lava]

merlin's cool, mc is gonna be cool. it checks out

[humble sequoia]

Aren't pretty much all Witches and Wizards descendants of Merlin?

[wind cairn]

we can manipulate his puzzles thats been dormant for hundreds of years, tap into ancient magic no one else can, and there is a few other things

[tight lava]

no...? they existed before him

[keen owl]

Merlin was a Slytherin. He wouldn’t be in Slytherin had the house founders been descended from him.

[humble sequoia]

@tight lava Clouds, everyones related to everyone in some form or another gene-wise.

[wind cairn]

well im right we'll have a slytherin head master, and a black to boot

[keen owl]

Hogwarts Legacy will have a Slytherin headmaster?

[tight lava]

Phineas Nigellus Black 👀

[wind cairn]

😉

u've been paying attention

[tight lava]

we're not 100% certain, but from what we know of the headmasters timeline it seems likely

[humble sequoia]

Wait, won't all houses have a Headmaster?

[wind cairn]

Very likely, he matches his bio to the letter

heads of houses are under head master

rumor has it that the charms professor is the head of slyhterin due to his pins

[humble sequoia]

Oh, sorry, I mistook what you said there. My bad.

I thought you were referring to the Heads of the Houses, not the Headmaster themselves. My bad.

[keen owl]

I forgot when he was headmaster.

[humble sequoia]

Honestly, I really wouldn't mind any House Headmaster/Headmistress.

[tight lava]

Fig lowkey gives off dumbles vibes and i am not here for it 😬

[wind cairn]

Fig is shady AF

accomplished yet enigmatic

[humble sequoia]

Ooh, maybe he'll be the secret antagonist? 😄

[wind cairn]

He attacks Ranrok first, which is hilariously sus

[humble sequoia]

Er, sus means "Suspect", right?

[tight lava]

suspicious

[wind cairn]

yeah, ranrok wants the ancient magic to destroy all wizard kind, but fig likely has plans of his own

[humble sequoia]

@tight lava Okay, but those honestly aren't too different of words...

[tight lava]

they have different etymology 🤷‍♀️ but in this case, sus can work for either

[wind cairn]

at any rate, the true enemy is yet to reveal itself, i believe its the very real and very sentient force behind the corruption

[safe tendon]

very technical way to describe slang

[humble sequoia]

Shrugs So pretty much using sus as either word will work?

Evening, Chaos!

[tight lava]

i like words :)

[safe tendon]

Good Evening Topaz 🙂

[safe tendon]

I as well

[late edge]

Ur all sus

[wind cairn]

well have a good one, im off to go sleep

[safe tendon]

take it easy

[tight lava]

o/ cya malus

[humble sequoia]

I myself have a huge amount of words that I'll use in my sentences. Even Steven King is jealous.

[safe tendon]

[humble sequoia]

Night Malus!

[tight lava]

i too, should be off. exams in 2 days 😵‍💫

[humble sequoia]

Night Clouds! Good luck on those exams!

Looking at what my Grandma did when she went to college/university, I think to myself, maybe I should become a teacher like her, I mean I do just want to help people...

[safe tendon]

If you really mean that, you should strongly consider the profession

[humble sequoia]

Shrugs Yeah well, it'll take more than just my AISH to get into College or Uni.

Hm... maybe dad should have used pure cheddar instead of marble for the cheese in this Mac & Cheese...

Also, uh, Chaos, was that Crying Laugh emote for what I said, or someone else?

[safe tendon]

for what you said

[humble sequoia]

Gotcha.

Glad to have made you laugh. :3

[safe tendon]

writing more than steven that would be a accomplishment indeed

[humble sequoia]

I was more referring to our entomologies than our writings, but whatever works.

Cause I doubt I could do any better than King. XD

[safe tendon]

hey, ya never know

[humble sequoia]

Well, positive reinforcement is always nice. :3

Man these Sausages are huge...

Please note: Hot Italian Sausages.

[barren flower]

Lol

[humble sequoia]

I'm sorry Bizzy, did I say something you found funny?

I was referring to Dinner, not pleasure. 😠

[barren flower]

Woah where did the idea of pleasure come from? 😂

[humble sequoia]

You.

[barren flower]

You said it/thought it

[humble sequoia]

Yeah, mostly cause I was worried the Mods would see the post as something NSFW and delete it even though I was referring to what I was actually eating for dinner.

Also you lol'd.

[topaz musk]

[barren flower]

You said it not me. I just laughed, because of your dirty thought

[humble sequoia]

Evening Nathan! 😄

[topaz musk]

morning

it's 2am so it counts lol

[barren flower]

Hello fellow slytherin

[humble sequoia]

Trust me, I know how it feels to be up at 2am. 😐

...Um, hello?

[barren flower]

Hi

[humble sequoia]

So, Bizzy, where will this conversation go? More arguing? Or maybe will we finally agree on something?

[barren flower]

We shall see

Lauren

[humble sequoia]

Takes deep breath Yeah, w/e...

[twin halo]

Yo Topaz, did you say you wanted to be a writer?

[humble sequoia]

No Onion, I already spend bits of my free time writing short fan-fics that I rarely post anywhere cause I feel they aren't quite required level of how good they are.

[twin halo]

start posting them somewhere

[humble sequoia]

I'd rather not, I don't like torturing people.

[twin halo]

make a name for yourself, you gotta be confident in your work in everything you do, and about torturing people there is a niche for everyone

[humble sequoia]

I mean... I could try and re-write the short story I made of Picquery's first year in Ilvermorny... but it really doesn't have much in terms of conflict aside from against the Pukwudgies running the school security.

[twin halo]

I respect anyone who has a passion for writing, it's so hard to get into and keep the spark that gets you into it in the first place, if you keep it up enough and you craft how you write into a perfect template you will go so so far

short stories don't need conflict in the grand scheme of things

[humble sequoia]

Plus well, the only text program I have is Notepad. :/

[twin halo]

that's just fine!

what about pen and paper?

[humble sequoia]

Well, that would require me to buy a new set of writing paper, and I already need to clean up the mess of drawing paper that happened cause my dog knocked the pile over when he was going outside. :/

[twin halo]

just buy a nice hardback copy, you will do fine with just that

[humble sequoia]

Plus I don't like doing anything that might get me in trouble with the owner of the property...

[tight lava]

thats great, in theory. but my drawer of notebooks says otherwise 😅

in my defence most of them were gifts

[humble sequoia]

I mean, what if I did get popular after releasing Ilvermorny: Picquery Year 1? Then Rowling might see it and go "Someone is using my property without my permission! Sue time!"

[barren flower]

Avada her and erase the crime scene

[tight lava]

but i agree with onion. you should try to get your work out there!!

[humble sequoia]

You do know I'm not actually a Wizard or Witch, right? I'm a No-Mag.

[twin halo]

A good way of getting around copyright infringement is to make it as a "spoof" think the scary movie franchise

[tight lava]

okay. then she’d have to fight with all of the other fan works out there. and there’s millions 😂

[barren flower]

Or give her a percent

[twin halo]

My walls with sticky pads......

[humble sequoia]

I mean... yeah, but... I wouldn't even want to make money off of it, just maybe, idk donations?

[tight lava]

pretty notebooks are an addiction 😔

[twin halo]

Oh they are

I have a really nice Adventures of Tin Tin notepad, I got it recently

[tight lava]

ooooo

[twin halo]

if you know what that is

[humble sequoia]

I get that
I understood that reference.

[tight lava]

yes loll

[twin halo]

tin tin made it worldwide

[humble sequoia]

Indeed Onion, he did. I still prefer Popeye, but still.

[twin halo]

sailor man

[tight lava]

my go-to was asterix und obelix

[trim sedge]

Song recommendation?

[humble sequoia]

So was mine, for most of my childhood Clouds. :3

[trim sedge]

Song recommendations

?

[tight lava]

i only know them in german tho 😂

[humble sequoia]

@trim sedge Bohemian Rhapsody?

[trim sedge]

I don’t like

Sorry

[humble sequoia]

You do you then, Salty. Uh, how about maybe... BT - Kimosabe?

[trim sedge]

Actually nvm

[glass eagle]

You can never get in trouble if you publish for non-profit

[humble sequoia]

Plus, back to me and my short story all of you seem to be flipping out over for some reason, where would I even post said short stories?

[glass eagle]

There's loads of websites

AO3 is pretty popular

[humble sequoia]

Plus, considering how little everyone already wants to talk about Ilvermorny here, why would anyone care about anything related to Ilvermorny stories?

I highly doubt very many people even know what Durmstrang is! So why would anyone waste their time with my work...

There's absolutely no chance that I'm the next J.K. Rowling or J.R.R. Tolkien...

[hushed holly]

AO3 has some 375,096 fan fics for Harry Potter alone.

So you'll definitely find a welcoming home for it there

but also as it's user generate content, you can post updates about it in the #🎨art-and-ugc-archive chat as long as you keep it brief (no posting the actual work in the text box),

[humble sequoia]

I highly doubt your average WW fan knows more than just the name and what Ilvermony is.

[hushed holly]

308 works with Ilvermorny in the tags

it doesn't matter if you write something exceedingly niche, AO3 doesn't care if your fic gets 10 views or 10,000 views, just put it up and as long as you're happy with it then that's all that matters

[humble sequoia]

Hm, lets see here...
375,096 divided by 308 equals...
1217.84

Not exactly that many people.

[hushed holly]

you're really over analysing this to give yourself an excuse to not put your work on AO3

[humble sequoia]

Oh, one sec brb

[hushed holly]

I have 2 stories up on AO3, one about a custom Spartan-III and the other about a Genshin Impact enemy NPC known as an Electro-Cicin Mage.

The first has 222 views in total, and the second has 685 views in total.

To say my works are niche would be an understatement, I wrote for things that were basically non-existent before I wrote my stories.

So don't worry if it's obscure, people who are interested in that will find it nonetheless.

Wouldn't be the first time I've searched a tag only to get like 5 results and read every one of them because there's nothing else available for it.

[vivid forum]

ok

[sudden trail]

Hey Batman!

[humble sequoia]

Okay, back.

...Welp. I guess this just means that it's just me again.

[hushed holly]

I thought you'd reply to what I put

There wasn't much more I could say

[keen owl]

A supervisor no one in the building can stand is still here and it’s been 12 hours already for her. I don’t understand why she doesn’t leave…

All she does is make a mess of everything that we have to fix later.

[humble sequoia]

Honestly I don't really have anything I really think needs to be said as a reply to that. Anything I would have said would have just been me saying more about how I just don't think I should waste everyone's time with my work.

Oh, and hi Severus.

[hushed holly]

Firstly, oof, that sounds annoying.

[keen owl]

Hello Topaz… I felt like ranting.

I can’t stand this supervisor.

[hushed holly]

Secondly, I wouldn't say it's wasting anyone's time. Everyone has to start somewhere and you getting feedback will help you improve much quicker.

[keen owl]

Yeah… She doesn’t know anything and shouldn’t be a supervisor. I figured with her moving off my shift entirely I wouldn’t have to deal with her anymore but no she won’t freaking leave.

[hushed holly]

I send a lot of my fics to a friend of mine who has been writing for years and she has helped me a lot with the flow and pacing of my writing thanks to her feedback.

[hushed holly]

Is there a higher level boss you can report her to?

[keen owl]

That’s all I shall say for now. I needed to vent my frustration.

[keen owl]

They’re all afraid of her… she somehow has immunity. We’ve been complaining about her harassment for years.

[humble sequoia]

Man, it's so freaking humid around here after that rain I'm sweating like a dog. ><

Sighs Do people really want to see my work that bad? Why? I don't deserve the praise to begin with...

[barren flower]

🫠

[humble sequoia]

Whatever Bizzy.

There’s no praise lol we just want you to get off your ~~~ and do something

Writing something praise worthy would be cool too

L, why should I even listen to you? You still haven't even chosen your House yet!

Choosing your House, I'm pretty sure that's part of the Rules!

[keen owl]

It’s not actually.

[ruby basin]

Yeah it ain’t
