I haven’t had to reference the book so much in a session since I was first learning 5e, what, 10 years ago?

First session of Blades in the Dark has me feeling like… damn, this system has so much potential to unleash an amazing game at my table. But *damn*, is it a tough teach.

Even as a story game chud, I think most RPGs do not need mechanics for persuasion, detecting lies, or investigation. These can all pretty much be resolved with the conversation at the table / question and answer, and are often more satisfying that way.

The show moving forward to a new era of design each season is making me really excited for the inevitable Fruitiget Aero season

i really enjoyed The Odyssey, but the more I think about it the more I’m seeing its flaws. some of it for sure lives up to the hype, but Christ, Nolan needs a better screenwriter. very uneven script.

Anyways, Pop Science is bad and you should be skeptical of basically any ”Celebrity Scientist”, they have a real bad habit of being sex pests, snake oil salesmen, charlatans, or some combination of the three.

I just… I really can’t square this circle. Hank must know the harms of A.I. on the brain, the planet, our social fabric, the body politic… I should’ve known something was up when the knitting community and HRT users realized he was getting tons of stuff wrong.

Plenty of internet chuds and morons use AI, and while that’s disappointing, it’s a whole other level of insanity to be a left-leaning science-minded, curious individual and then outsource your research to Sam Altman’s biosphere-eating propaganda machine.

The Hank Green AI shit is so beyond depressing I don’t even really know what to make of it. For me this calls into question every single one of his videos from the last few years. He’s been using AI for “research” so how much of his content is outdated? Misinterpreted? Full-out hallucination?

I’m not even trying to be a “let people enjoy things” media centrist or whatever but there‘s a distinct lack of a sort of ”live and let live” philosophy in this space for some reason, everyone has to get in everyone’s business and tell them they’re running or playing their games WRONG and BADLY

Am I out of line for saying I find most TTRPG discourse largely unhelpful, often inflammatory, and by-and-large both issued and received in bad faith?

@felixisaacs.bsky.social ‘s WILDSEA is just unfathomably good. I’ve been running it for 46 sessions (probably about 5-10 sessions to go) and it just endlessly generates incredible, one of a kind play sessions and adventuring material. I feel like I could run it forever.

from what I can gather from the first ep of his new podcast, a lot of it is about the lore and exploration side of Dark Souls! Created at the table together ofc so it is still Brindlewood engine for sure

Excellent read. I played some Lancer last year and I found the in between RP sessions to always be the more compelling stuff- out game was “not about the robots“ too but as a consequence, a lot of the combats lost luster when we tried to put a narrative spin that the system doesn’t support

1) Masks: The New Generation- Easy to pick up story driven PbTA that is an easy genre touchstone 2) Wildsea: For its imaginative world and character-forward engine 3) Mythic Bastionland: For some fantasy flavor that is way more rich and textured than 5e 4) Mothership: Cuz it’s fuckin’ awesome

My advice: don’t be afraid to be a background character is some scenes, ”Yes And” is huge to making other players feel important and seen, and follow your impulses to check out the weird side stuff people are making themselves. I missed so many things because I was so focused on big events
