Yeah and I have the same feeling often with the kind of stories you mean and if someone needs to die mostly know in advance whom. In horror movies that is a meme for a reason after all or the star trek wrong color shirt. It is artificial tension as well 99.9% of the time since ending is a given as well. Murderer will be found, child be saved or opponents killed. No different as you know here MC will make it work with the girls. :p

At some point I stopped watching (classic action) movies with Bruce Willis. Where is the tension in it, if you already know that his plot amor works 100% guaranteed?

He popped up on Discord today but didn't discuss the game. But he is alive! Got injured by a gas-powered mower, but in one piece, I mean.

Sundayish update

Very close now, was really hoping I would be announcing a release date today, but not quite ready to do that. And don't want to go down the rabbit hole where I don't communicate. This update got a little big on me, had to get everyone ready for next update...which I have been excited to write for a while. Won't be anything a lot of people have been requesting, but I think once you get to the end of this update........well you will be excited for the next one as well. Had to add a little bit here and there as I edit, but it's finally coming together and should have some good news very soon. Honestly this update is pretty well balanced between...action I guess we will call it, and set up. The whole house is turning into a boiling cauldron that will explode in a couple of updates:).
Until then as for the pic....just imagine sitting there and your teen girls come up and say...we are going trick or treating. Would those outfits go too far IRL or do you risk it?

The funny thing about Bruce Willis, is that the first Die Hard film, one of it's greatest points about quality, was how fragile McClain was. He wasn't a roided out combat god like the Stallone or Arnold films. He was a "regular" guy for the most part. He got hurt, a LOT, he was scared, he was frustrated, he was tired, demoralized, etc. All the traits that make a character human. You genuinely couldn't say, given how injured he was near the end, if John was going to survive that first film. But then the franchise ended up morphing into the very thing it was a counterpoint to. The latter Die Hard films he's basically an unstoppable god, complete with ridiculous actions that defy all logic and physics. Thus looping the franchise back to the idiotic tropes of the other 80s films, that it was trying to break away from.

Not all Die Hards, 3 was pretty close in that regard to 1 (well, mostly, but 1 wasn't entirely realistic either), but 2 and the others .. well.

Really? Have you ever seen the original Rambo movie First Blood? Stallone was just a normal mook. If you haven't seen it, watch it. Great movie.

They both died in the book, so there shouldn't be any sequels. Unfortunately test audiences thought that was too much of a downer ending. Also protag of the book Die Hard was based on was pushing 70 or 80.

We "poke" him on the Discord (at his request BTW) to make sure to either gives us updates on there, or on Patreon. And he did say that he would be better about informing us about the progress of the next update every Sunday... however, he went through a bit of personal shit during the holidays and it is back to him being silent... again... for almost 2 months on Patreon. Speaking as a fan, this is just how it's been with Nefastus for years now. Nef starts building steam, and then he hits a snag like this that causes silence.
