Right now, I'm running a Cypher System game that is fantasy - with lots of flavor being the tropes and stylings of 8,16 adn 32 bit era JRPGs (think Final Fantasy, Dragon Warrior, Breath of Fire, etc). This is a solo game I am running for my wife. Right now I am playing a Cypher System game...

Thank you. I knew that but had forgotten it - thank you for the reminder.

The octopus art is stock imagery - so no copyright infringement there, but they didn't come up with the artwork - so basically no original art on the tower itself. That is sad.

I reported the copied images to Amazon.

For years I've tried to figure out what kind of things I'd want included in a monster entry in such a book - and this sample is almost my Platonic ideal of what it should be. I cannot wait for this to come out!

In their own section, preferable right before the spell descriptions themselves.

I rarely play D&D of any sort anymore, but I am definitely pledging for this. I just want to own it, in case I ever get the chance to play 5E (or variants) again.

I love how the author of the book describes the movie - "A visually stunning but otherwise incomprehensible adaption"

Part of why I loved that setting. The class was basically the Bloodguard from Thomas Covenant.

I like the name changes. I've never played a barbarian because of the whole outdoor warrior thing* - but I remember reading the Berserker playtest and having something like 3 or 4 character ideas, just because that change of approach. * with one powergaming exception for a high level game where...

System Matters. I'm looking at universal game systems and GURPS plays different than HERO different than Genesys and all of them are different from Cypher. The structure of a system can push a type of play, and within that structure character choices are limited or encouraged by the system.

I hadn't even thought of going literary reference - even if I don't use Arden, There is a lot in that direction. Thanks!

oohhhh I like Mind's Eye.

Need help naming a company/product in an upcoming game, before I pitch it to the group. The name of the company is also the name of the campaign. Campaign idea - people play fully immersive (as in Matrix level) MMOs. Part of the game is going to be players as e-Sports stars, with promos...

Does that make you the switch hitter?

I tend to run modern day superheroes mostly, so whatever that biggest cities are in the modern world.

That's it exactly.
