Crimson Longinus's latest activity

I did not say all the stuff and not in that combination. Nor I think hard and soft moves had been so clearly articulated before. But the...

Neither does D&D, but you can still use the concept and people have for ages before PbtA was published. It is just about having "a...

And regarding telegraphing of clocks, this is another reason why I think for the most stuff the PCs are expected to respond, a soft move...

Depends on scale, too. In any moment of play it's fairly safe to assume I (and, I'd expect, nearly all players nearly all of the time)...

This is both dependant upon the game and who you ask. I disagree with a lot of the other narrativist inclined types here because I do...

I'm solidly pro-manipulation here. My issue is that RPGs are deeply inconsistent about whether or not players should be doing mechanical...
