tired of the "#1 dad" nonsense. if you're a dad, stop treating it like a joke and post your actual national dad ranking. i'm # 492,018, which is actually really high up there, but more importantly it lets me enter ranked dad lobbies where i can get matched up for fistfights with dads of my caliber

exciting questions about whether what's happening at the table is what actually happened or just how it's being told! prophecy! lore! a secret third moon! I am grabbing this game in my teeth and shaking it like a dog with a rat. Anyway. Go play Inevitable.

Everyone who knows me knows that I am literally always saying this, but Inevitable is one of the best games I have ever played (/run, primarily) -- evocative writing! compelling themes! sad gay cowboy knights! inescapable tragedy! a really excellent magic system! (1/2)

Finally, and with regards to our own game of FD2G: while it was unwritten when we mentioned it in review, the secret non-canon epilogue is real and on AO3: archiveofourown.org/works/62946409

Third, to reiterate-- this was one of the best games I played last year. If it's a kind of story you're even a little bit interested in, you should absolutely play it for yourself---and if it's something you want to listen to, you should check out our playthrough. I'm still very proud of it.

--really effectively without drawing in broader setting markers. Which is a cool and fun piece of design! It also means that it can become very flexible and very straightforward to slot into settings and situations where you want to tell this kind of story (see above)!

Second, bouncing off this: we allude to this mid-review, but this game strikes a really fun balance (to me at least!) where it's successfully *setting*-agnostic without being *genre*-agnostic. It has such a clear *kind* of story that it wants to tell, and it focuses in on telling that--

First of all, back in January we found ourselves playing another game (For The Queen) which led us to define a player rivalry that the game itself did not resolve and for which we wanted some mechanical closure. When that wrapped, FD2G is what we immediately reached for.

Because we recorded this review a few months ago, I've got more to say about this! A brief thread:
