JK3 (Academy) was good, but I think JK2 had the best combat. It was a bit deeper with more skill expression in the saber combat. It was insane how MP developed into FFA games being dueling lobbies where people would hang out and take turns dueling. There was the whole full force CTF scene too

1 year time skip, pick up right after the Bratva won and spaced all that tried to oppose them along with the chokespawn. Or we all run a thing for Sam where he's the main character and everyone is playing NPCs around him like the Truman Show for a month.

Working on an essay series exploring Tuseday Knight Games's Fatherfog. I think it is a neat game that certainly deserves more detailed attention and conversation than it has gotten so far. amicoolyet.substack.com/p/an-exhaust...

I love the mechanics for the time advancing and season changes, part of the reason things got a bit scrambled was the seasons were totally wonky because of two different Myths messing with them, and another weather related one on top of that. 🤣

Yeah but they're bringing back Heroes of the Storm out of maintenance mode and releasing her as a hero so we must pretend to love her, for the sake of her selling well in HOTS and getting more heroes.

There must have been a first time thousands of years ago, when the first person went caving for no good reason and friends were like "Yo... you don't have to try and squeeze down there, what the FUCK are they doing?!"

There's this great bit in JLA/Avengers where The Flash winds up in The Marvel Universe. He's immediately accosted and beaten by civilians who think his a mutant or a supervillain, and he can't get away because the Speedforce doesn't exist. Anyways, that's how my night is going, art-wise.

They want you to think you have to buy it. You don't. It was already in your own heart all along. Support your friends. Support strangers. Support independent publishers. You do not need a corporation's permission to have fun.

Informal poll. My dad doesn't seem to give a shit that he's consuming AI slop on youtube and doesn't realize it. Should I A). Hop on his account and manually "don't show me this channel" what I find, B). look for the most absurd channels and subscribe to all of them until it gets wildly obvious?

Whomever greenlights Marvel games please I just want a Juggernaut game where I run around and destroy stuff. Like a digital rage room I think it would be cathartic. It doesn't need a story, just a score for destruction and momentum.

I surveyed 200 players and learned that most OSR games fall into two tiers of lethality - Meatgrinder and Picaresque. Table culture determines lethality more than system or campaign length. valerialoves.com/how-deadly-i...

I wonder what the weirdest thing that's ever been sent up one of those pneumatic tubes at the bank drive-thru and if I could somehow rob the bank using that. Or go back in time and live in the rafters of Costco siphoning off cash from those tubes that used to go to the registers.

I fantasize about making people from past centuries watch my favorite movies and listen to my favorite music. I don't know if I go back in time it do this or drag them here to the present but I just wanna see how they react. "We're gonna start with Wallace and Gromit, then we'll try Alien."

TTRPG jargon should be judged solely based on how good their names are. Do they evoke curiosity like Jaquaysing a dungeon or do they just sound like a made up word a child chants to annoy you like blorb? Subscribe now for my upcoming jargon tier list and buy All on Red so your APOF campaign rocks.
