I play video games so infrequently nowadays that I avoid getting new games before I have "finished" a previous one. That said, I struggle to motivate myself to finish Metroid Prime 4.

The Rise of Solo Roleplay
Tabletop roleplaying games are often seen as a social experience. A group of friends gathered around a table, rolling dice, telling stories together. But sometimes that’s easier said than done. You…

Having written a 520-page rulebook, I now struggle with whether I should make a thorough index with "everything" or a more streamlined index with "only the most relevant things." I like the former, but it adds another 20 pages to the book.

Noticed that YouTube had flagged a comment on my latest video that was a very visceral and unhinged reaction to the fact that I had mentioned consulting people with disabilities when writing cybernetics for my game. Such a strange thing to be so angry about, but it seems I really ruined his day. Hah

When looking back at my adult life, I can see a lot of patterns of apathy despite being fairly high functioning. I have a career, friends, family, am highly productive when it comes to personal passions, but failed at taking care of myself or my space. Once I started to look, I assumed dystymia.

I've wanted to improve and diversify my cooking, so the last couple of weeks I've been randomizing recipes. It's a fun challenge and it keeps me from being lazy and making things easy.

After 30 years of running ttrpgs, I've done all the classic mistakes. but I think one of the best lessons I learned was to stop overprepping. I got together with a friend and did regular fully improvised solo sessions few years ago. Was really helpful to get over that threshold.

After spending seven years designing my first original TTRPG, I only have about 15 more pages to layout. Then it's all about revising, final playtest errata, indexing, hyperlinks, and bookmarks. And probably being discouraged for life when people break the game or tell me it sucks.

Games I want to run in 2024: * Bladerunner: I've had it since release but haven't had a chance to play it yet. * Tales from the Loop: Another game where I've had everything for years but not been able to convince a group to play. * Werewolf 5E: I want to try it at least once.

I know a group of people who all individually are very respectful, but once they are all together, I become a punching bag. They aren't mean, but I have much less value in that circle. This has made me assert myself more forcefully when I feel ignored or belittled, which makes me feel like a prick.

Seems like 2024 is shaping up to be the year of the TTRPG. We're only halfway through February and I have already played Cyberpunk Red, D&D, Exalted Essence, Vampire the Masquerade, and The Walking Dead.
