City of Mist had proper moves but with Otherscape they moved away from that and leaned far more into statuses so there's just two moves: quick (narrative the outcome) or tracked (which imposes statuses and effects that you by from the amount of tags you used.) And with Otherscape they added a...

I do agree about it fanning the flames of imagination and inspiration. But as a stepping stone to Mars it's a little like jumping jumping from Norway to New York by using UK for extra boost. So vast distances that it's not really helpful.

Weird to make that argument on a podcast where the host froths his mouth every time he sees a woman or a black character which if you look at the thumbnails is every video. So I think Weir is just doing that whole "my POV is common sense, politics when it goes against that".

Shadowrun Anarchy 2e did get better than the first edition but that one is also attempting to be more rules light in all areas. The main line is a mess of badly edited rules. Even earlier than so as Burning Wheel did get made because of a few things making an idea spark and I believe Shadowrun...

That is practice and not listening to the quitting voice. :D

Even though it can be hard to switch off that internal "not good enough so I quit" voice as an adult, I really recommend learning to draw.

I assume it's about the Making of OD&D book that got Rob Kuntz all angry and defensive because it called out some of Gygax opinions for what they were. Which is weird because Gary was dead at the time so he wasn't treated in any way at all.

I love the MtG worlds. I don't play the game but the worlds and how they work and stories there are great. And that's the big issue with bringing them into D&D, they're very much locked into the MtG meta-story that's going to make the question "why don't Elmister do something about this?" way...

Surf Dracula. Cruise Mummy. Frankenstein also need one now.

The mummy in Cruise Mummy was pretty neat. Russel Crowe's Jekyll was hammy fun. But Tom Cruise was super-miscast and the script didn't do the movie any favour — it was super-bland with big pacing issues and illogical jumps just because.

It means it's only takes what Weis & Hickman considers canon into account.

Fully agree. It was a rhetorical question that I thought I made clear I didn't agree with.
