Can any pedes help with a rabbit hole?
🧐 Research Wanted 🤔
I’ve kinda fallen down a bit of a potential rabbit hole and I’m trying to find information about a writer called RA Salvatore. Specifically I’m trying to find out about his family - parents names etc. his bios on line make no mention of his family other than the names of his wife and 1 sibling. He has pretty much no info available which has piqued my curiosity as he’s a successful writer… just wondering if anyone can recommend any potential sources for digging?
Interdasting Twitter post indeed!
Yeah, there's a lot of Salvatore created fiction that parallels real life and subsequently, certain aspects of life such as the GAW. However, I don't feel it's more comparable than say Tolkien's masterworks, which are 100% rooted in Christian creation mythos and very much illustrate a narrative of the ultimate morality battles of mankind.
As for his failed company, hmm... yeah maybe something there or maybe not. Failed gaming companies & projects are a common thing for sure. Heck, if you want to see the evil in that spectrum look no further than Hasbro/WotC who hold all of the keys to D&D and the Forgotten Realms.
Hasbro has been the leader of the social engineering of children using media & toys since the 80s. They used to push neoconservatism openly, now they push pedophilia and wokeism.
WotC is just as bad. They are one of the wokeist companies globally that targets adolescents and young adults.
As for 38 Studios, I'm in the dark here. I know I've read transcript or even heard RAS speak about the company and project endeavors, but my memory is recollecting pre-dissolution conjecture. RAS being asked about spoilers and such tidbits many years old now.
Again, AFAIK, it's just one of many examples of a failed upstart game company. They probably promised RAS the moon for his character rights and the company either mismanaged the project and/or had illusions of grandeur and simply could not deliver or compete.
