I will hold out hope for Supergiant Games. Which I know... never gonna happen. But still. I would play this so hard I'd die of exhaustion, dehydration, and malnutrition. Please, yes.

"Paradox kills Chronicles of Darkness" My first thought: "Too much Vulgar Magic."

Wait, what?? I bought and played that. No idea it was a Thompson spite piece!

Another light goes out in the sky. Thanks, Jim, for making my childhood considerably less boring.

Possibly an unpopular opinion? I don't love D&D. I have lots of games that interest me more, that are, IMO, better made, clearer, less contradictory, prettier, nicer art, better writing, cooler ideas, more fun premises, less kitchen-sink, etc... But... I LOVE getting to play. D&D is the...

I can't recall ever being unsold by a game's art feel. But I have absolutely been SOLD by the art matching tonally with the game. Most recently, Inevitable had me from the first look at the cover art. Edit: Inevitable Cover Art

Girl by Moonlight, Evil Hat's gorgeous take on the Magical Girl genre, built on the Blades in the Dark. Or go older than Dungeon World and it's Apocalypse roots with Baker's pinnacle achievement, Dogs in the Vineyard. The premise might put some folk off but it's absolutely worth it to get past...

So... "diverse folk getting along = bad?" That's their message? Could everyone look away from the screen a moment? I need to use some bad words. Thanks. I'm fine now.

Okay, I assume since it's from DSHM, there's hateful bile here somewhere. But I don't see it.

I would believe that. And I loved the idea of psionics. Hell as a kid (because I was. A kid), I even loved the psionics. But even when I was a little older, we saw the cracks appear. Woah! They predate me! I always thought they were new in the 1e PHB. I was 12 when we got the PHB and began...

Is he warning people to stay away from him? The others I loved as things I remember and often reference. This one... I have no memory of this one. What? That's not actually better, nor does it absolve him. I second this.

I can attest to the accuracy of those reports. I tend to agree. At the time we were all Cool! Mindpowerz!! But looking over the rules later they just felt... tacked on. They were a whole new mechanic that didn't attempt to work with the rest of the game, they were more unbalanced than nearly...

If the character is woven into the action, it becomes mine to continue or tease out as needed. If the character is not part of the action (like a story is done, we're in downtime), the departing player should 100% get to decide if his character sticks around, but I 100% get to decide if I want...

"A Game About Vile, Corrupt Aberrant Creatures By Justin LaNasa" --Well... they say write what you know...

Honestly... All of these can be factors, especially when there's more than one. But here's the reddest flags for me... The crowdfunding page is slapdash or poorly-written. Right or wrong, if the page looks bad, or the writing is poor, or not proofed well... it informs my opinion about the...

I've never played Cortex. I backed Cortex Prime, but by the time it came out I'd moved on. Haven't even read it.

Summoning bothers me, though I think that's more on me and my never taking that into account. Spells that bypass mystery bother me. They probably shouldn't, but I get annoyed when someone uses magic to detect or identify anything. I'm trying to be mysterious over here! I know, I need to get...

Speaking purely from a statistical point of view and from no personal knowledge, on a more-probable-than-not-basis, I'm old enough to be your grandfather. :)

This is why you should read to the end of the thread. This thread is old enough to vote in the US, and all the comments I'd reply to are too.

You have to pay close attention to that fine Print. Books from Kobo are useless unless you own their proprietary device or you wanna read it on your web interface.
