No. This would be so much worse. Remember in the early bits of the pandemic when everyone was panic buying and the shelves were empty? It only took what...a few weeks. Now imagine that...only it never goes away...and the shelves are never restocked again. Societal collapse levels of chaos. A...

And Liam's inevitable sad, mopey PC is going to definitely be sad and mopey. With a lot of angst. I will say that after having watched two full campaigns from the cast, along with most of the Vox Machina cartoon, they all do seem to have a type and play to that. It would be nice to see them go...

Me: "This will be a short, mechanics-focused playtest." Player: "Cool. Here's a 1500-word rough, preliminary outline of my backstory." Me: head...desk. If I can't stand the default playstyle and assumptions of the majority of players it doesn't matter how much I like a system. Daggerheart...

What I'm really looking forward to is the time just after the corporations fire everyone and replace them all with “AI”. The corps will basically implode. That'll be fun to watch. You know...except for all the dead people, mass starvation, suffering, homelessness, poverty, etc. "None of it...

Well, capitalism as a whole really. The idea that nothing matters but profits is incompatible with life. Human or otherwise.

That's not quite right.

Most likely they simply hide it so those in the area can’t see it and block those in the area from posting them. Is this is extremely recent? I’ve posted and seen CBC links on Facebook in the last six months.

Exactly. Even at seven seasons of 10-15 episodes you’re only talking 70-105 episodes. Which is a lot, to be sure. Until you realize the 90s shows hit that mark around the end of season 5. Besides, modern productions don’t go to seven seasons. They do 3-4 before they’re cancelled. Which gives you...

Never mind.

Yes. The fans decided to blame the woman-of-color guest for the regular PC’s death instead of the PC’s actual player who was completely at fault. It was not a good time to be a CR fan.

For better or worse they are making significant changes to the story of the Mighty Nein. As long as they don’t change the theme song from the campaign, I’m still in.

Prepping a Daggerheart playtest game.

The refit ship for me (ENT-A). Followed closely by the Excelsior (ENT-B) and Ambassador (ENT-C).

Those are the best. Works great in horror and mystery. It’s why you never need red herrings in RPGs. The PCs will gladly lead you everywhere but where your notes suggested.

The one immediately thought of was a pseudodragon PC. Faerie and drakona. But both flying and breath weapon are the second traits. Seems like a silly limitation.

It’s pretty great. It might be in the SRD. It’s up on their site.

I think it’s about representation over physics. Like with paralyzed PCs and combat wheelchairs, which are also in Daggerheart. I don’t care about physics or emulating disability “accurately” in an RPG. I think we should be at a point where mechanizing that stuff, just like mechanizing mental...

I really dig the mixed-ancestry rules. There's all kinds of fun combos to do. Add in how customizable the ancestries are by default and there's all kinds of nonsense you can do. The top/bottom traits thing seems a bit...arbitrary though. Are the traits at the top or bottom meant to be more...
