    If I had a twitter account, I would have replied this exact text to him.

    These tweets give off the feeling of psychological self-therapy more than anything else.

    That was my next guess.

    For the third time in a row, gamers answer by remaining indifferent towards Pillars, claiming the mechanics needn't have been butchered, but skillfully adapted instead.

    I'm sure it's therapeutic for him, his general vibe lately has been as if he suffers under terrible disappointment. I asked the question of for whom this PnP is quite a while back too.

    Sawyer's opinion is that if you want to use OGL for Eora then go for it. This system is for him.

    That's probably the worst possible thing he could've decided because he needs quality guidance more than anything else. But since it's for him and probably nobody else is going to play it, that's absolutely fine.

    I have this professor in university that's incredibly passionate about his research. He can drone about this topic for hours. Writing in the whiteboard. Opening his old research notes (like really old, written with cursive on yellowish paper from his doctoral days old). The rant here and there about how modern society is doing agriculture wrong. He would then smile and excitedly and explain when we have certain questions.

    Josh is giving me that kind of vibe on that stream. Maybe Feargus is just letting Josh do whatever when the company is making abomination like TOW, So long the old founding guy is happ yeah?

    Kinda make me feel warm and sad at the same time, seeing passionate people like him in that condition.
