MariOSR, I assume, wants low-level, high-lethality dungeon runs, with a few power-ups, a lot of treasure, and frequent dragon encounters. WariOSR is all about the mini-games and sub-systems. Why would you ever do something as boring as dying or making a new PC when there's always a new hat to wear?

For those in the Atlanta area, I will be at LUG Con in Duluth this Sunday, playing CY_BORG and Raptor Ruckus and hanging out. I'm easy to find: a middle-aged bald white guy with a beard and glasses. 😆 I guess I should probably wear my GRIDSHOCK hat to make it more obvious. If you're going, say hi.

While I'm on the subject, this is my end credits theme for an imaginary slice of life anime about the lives of various lonely people who ride the bus in 1988 Fukuoka and whether they will find love and fulfillment youtu.be/653Fl1IJEn0?...

Hi, I'm Paul. My brother Chris and I create tabletop RPGs. I'm crowdfunding a game called GRIDSHOCK right now, featuring artwork by @milonogiannis.com @simonroy.bsky.social and more. But that's only IF it funds - which it hasn't yet - so it'd be very cool if you checked it out. Thanks!

I'm aware of issues with how VAT is being applied for UK backers of GRIDSHOCK Zero Edition. I'm working with Gamefound to get that corrected, and to see if there are similar problems for EU backers. Sorry for the inconvenience. We'll get it fixed ASAP.

I dunno, it makes sense to me. If you only use one type of die, why waste space specifying it every time?

I think those starter packs might explain why I occasionally see a small jump in followers that quickly evaporates.

The best interview I've done. If you've wondered what the deal with GRIDSHOCK Zero Edition really is, good news: these gentlemen did an excellent job of getting me to explain why I made it, what it's about, and what makes it worth backing. Huge thanks to the Effekt crew.

It was one of those shows that my grandfather always seemed to be watching when I was around, and now I'm like "he was on to something here." Based on old photos, it also looks like he tried pretty hard to dress like Jim Rockford in the 70s (and largely pulled it off)

Oh man, I just started watching this show a couple weeks ago, and I cannot explain how much I relate to this

Not bad. I tend to use "dungeon fantasy games" because I feel like the dungeon fantasy genre is pretty distinct, while "fantasy adventure" could mean a lot of things.

There is truly nothing wrong with disagreeing on matters of taste. In fact, peacefully disagreeing on matters of taste is a vital skill in the TTRPG space, one lots of people haven't cultivated.

When I see people saying that the Free League dice mechanic is boring I feel like I can safely assume that those people are more interested in having dice mechanics be "interesting" or "innovative" than I am.

Can't disagree with any part of this review. When the band that defined the current sound of a genre signs to a major label, you might expect a shift in sound - but you'd also expect something more distinct than the scattered, uneven, and rather forgettable Get Mean.

This campaign has 18 days left, which means it's in that quiet zone where I don't expect much to happen. Surprise me.
