Rebel Moon? I keep wanting to watch that out of morbid curiousity and then realizing I have a large, unwatched stack of movies I'd rather watch at any given moment.

Having yet to actually go to one of their locations, I'm mildly obsessed with Meow Wolf and am curious about their game.

Avalon Rising sounds very Blame! and I might have to look into it.

Right, and to be honest, Lovecraft himself didn't really have a "canon" so much as he would reuse the names of his various dark gods (and his friends ones) and evil books across stories to give a strong sense of flavor. So Cthulhu is mentioned in other works (and I think shows up in a mural in...

Looks like. Not sure I'm a fan of that particular crossover.

Yeah, little modules that can be fit into a larger campaign are great. "Don't Wake Dretchlor" sounds like an 80s boardgame. I think that might be on purpose.

So we got some TRON, some Super Mario World, some F-ZERO. I mean, it's a good video, but is it as amazing as that Shadowrun one? I don't know!

Don't do it! You'll end up with a drawer full of (admittedly very cool) playing cards and a lot of questions about what any of this actually accomplishes!

Oh, thank you for reminding me of the cool AD&D based Buck Rogers one from back in the day (it even got a computer/Genesis game)!

Yeah, I guess I don't know the statistics, being more of a consumer of my sister's books when I was younger (and since then buying a lot of books and reading them but not playing), and only really recently playing a lot, but it seems like Traveller has a big, storied history (if not necessarily...

Esper Genesis also comes to mind. I'm sure there's many, many others. People like space. People like 5E. I guess.

I definitely loved those books for flavor but didn't really grasp the mechanics. I feel like there's so much OSR gonzo/Dying Earth-esque stuff these days that I'd probably just do that, though.

The Bob World Builder adventure looks pretty cool. I'm very interested in Shadowdark, but haven't played yet.

"Underneath the Ruined Watchtower of Some Forgotten Duke" is a great module name.

SEWER SCUM and the Blood Sands stuff both look neat. I've been hoarding more stuff than I can ever play, though.

I do find it's often worth it just to ebay the exact one you want from people who buy them bulk and sell the identified or open ones. I'm sorry I missed the full color Elminster mini dice cup from one of those guys because I loved the van-art look of it, and wanted exactly nothing else from...

@sevenbastard Warduke is the best. I do like anything mimic. I do not like blind bag.

Yeah, I'm currently running straight up 5E but no alignments. They have a place but I don't find them useful at the moment. Of course this is a very silly and not deep campaign so we don't have super complex cultural background for each character.

There's always mods!

And this was actually the case in the Salem Witch Trials: a lot of the accusations were ways for neighbors to grab land from the accused, for example. And it should be noted that the Mathers, while seeming skeptical of a lot of proceedings, basically granted them their blessing when they turned...
