Hey, does anyone here know in depth Irish mythology? I know a bit, but not enough to write an accurate story for this game I have though up, and any help would be greatly appreciated. You will be acknowledged, and probably paid if this game ever makes it past concept. Anyways, reply or note me if you do...

      That's ok. I'm actually not really expecting people here to know all that much about it. It's a fairly specialized subject area. I know a lot, but my book is lent out and I don't want to buy a new one.

      Yeah, I know a lot, I was just kind of wanting a person to kind of bounce ideas off of. I haven't really had time to study irish mythology as much as I used to, and I'm a bit rusty. I want to try and get everything right and make it work well so that more people can have a good understanding of a way under taught mythology and culture, especially since it's apparently so cool to be Irish right now, but no one really understands what that means, they're just following th crowd.

    I know...a marginal amount.

    I don't know if I'd be helpful though.

      Well, maybe. I really want someone to bounce story ideas off of and that can help me remember some stuff. I'll skype you sometime to see how it works.

      I know what you mean. I've studied a ton of mythology on my own so it tends to run together, and I get norse and Irish mixed up a bit, and greek and roman mixed up a lot, and then mostly forget the egyptian because I never read or study anything about it.

    What I want to know is the concept for the game that you need all this for. That's the half that intrigues me.

      Well, if I can get some of the finer details hammered out I'm going to post something up here, I just need to actually get the details worked out, which seems to be harder than I thought.

        irish mythology seems to be a greatly under appreciated culture, i definitely want to see what you're coming up with so don't give up...

        i wish i could be of more service, the only thing i could think is check out some Universities and see if they have myth courses and try and contact the professor and see if s/he can recommend some reading. Try the library too, a Uni one if you could get into it would be even better. Librarians generally know their search systems pretty well so you could probably come up with something.
