    I hear this really improves the "twitch factor" and makes it more "streamer friendly".

    "caked blood and shreds of alien flesh and hair and leering sentiently at me with phosphorescent sockets and sharp ensanguined fangs yawning twistedly in mockery of my inevitable doom. And when it gave from those grinning jaws a deep, sardonic bay as of some gigantic hound" >pet

    Let's say hypothetically I were to adapt Lovecraft's "The Hound" into my game, where grave robbing gives you a jade amulet that haunts the wearer, now cursed to be hunted down by some beastial baying hound.... Should you be able to pet the dog?

    (Ted Chiang’s the author of the original story that was adapted into film as Arrival. The film is great but the story..., the story explores the nature of free will, replacing it with ritual, of the value gained in performing one’s life. Completely missed in the film.)

    And these stories are usually in between ones about aliens or robots or digital pets or VR memories, etc. He just doesn’t differentiate between them. It’s so refreshing to not see them separated between “sci-fi” and “fantasy” like they are distinct.

    I think what really stands out to me about these stories is how he explores classic Big Idea science fiction but completely discards all of the science fiction dressing we associate with the genre. It’s so refreshing.

    He also wrote a great story about using the name of god to bring life to golems formed from clay (iirc), aka programming robots mysticism.

    Ted Chiang wrote a prior story about climbing the Tower of Babel that similarly gives you this old mythologizing take set in the ancient Middle East that also explores a weird science fiction conceit (which I won’t share because it’s the key discovery in the story)
