That attitude is the precise reason we have these fascy pricks in power.

I tried making a bunch of very complex characters in M&M, like characters who could mod their mech suit to fit situations, or reform parts of their digital body into weapons...

But then Neutron Star happened and her blunt force simplicity was so damned fun <3

Fuck yes!

Oh also Neutron Star is only 4 foot tall too.

Her origin is that a science experiement densified her. Hence the smaller and the weight.

The boots neutralise her weight so she can like.. go in buildings

She's just a wrestling fan. Its a prop belt xD

But she uses wrestling moves in combat.

She once one-shot a big bad (who was a werewolf) with a bodyslam. That was a good day.

She is, unsurprisingly, miss collateral damage.

A colourful artwork of a lady in an orange spandex wrestling outfit and orange eye mask. She has a red sidecut and big metal boots.

I mean.. it's been a while, most of my recent ones have been for the Larp, but this is one of my favourite Mutants & Masterminds characters, Neutron Star.

This wonderful artwork was done by Kassandra Leigh.

(Her power is that she weighs 800 Tonnes)

A big sheet of paper with random notes and sketches using colored markers scattered haphazardly.
Various ideas are written like "Fire is grid based and spreads :(" and "Questions: real time or turn based?"

Matt found the original "brainstorming document" for FTL -
Written on a big roll of paper in his apartment in Shanghai over beers.

You can see a lot of the foundational ideas there, but this was before we even pictured having ship-to-ship combat.

I don't normally do 'fantasy LARP' with magic/crafting systems etc. but greatly enjoyed Dreamlands and it is very inclusive of what you want to do with your play style. I ducked the 'systems' mostly and just went around exhorting people to 'do stuff, work together, explore!' and had a lovely time.

We're very new (only done one proper event so far)

You're fairly correct in your reading. we're an ongoing larp that's fairly similar broadly to the bigger fest larps but without multiple factions and much fewer players.

We're super newbie friendly and our kit requirements are low so there's not too much costume needed to play!

Musing a little on my relationship to innovation in ttrpgs.

I don't generally try to build like super out there stuff, I wouldn't say CobblePath pushes the boundaries of what ttrpgs are capable of.

As you might guess I am not of the position that games must do that to be valuable.

This is such a great project and yes, Locus is one of the games you can access to make your AP through this~

So, people are talking about ttrpg award again so I'm gonna reiterate my pitch on how an awards show that could boost smaller creators might work:

- Games can only be submitted once, but aren't date-locked.
- Awards are not limited, but are specific.
- Games can only win one award each.

We've always priced our games a little above what is typical and what we might expect, knowing that our gut is to be kinda timid with it.

I think generally a lot of folks price based on the page count but like.. it's a game. The substance isn't just on the pages.

Other people have responded to the main points...that D&D and in particular the "D&D lifestyle brand as a consumerist hobby" is expensive, but TRPGs by and large are very much not...but I'm going to add to this that most TRPGs, for the labor involved in their production, should be charging way more

10.08.2025 16:49 β€” πŸ‘ 159    πŸ” 27    πŸ’¬ 12    πŸ“Œ 0

In my experience there is a genuinely very small contingent of people who will avoid buying your game if its too expensive but would buy it if it was a little cheaper.

For most people it's about whether its worth spending money on at all rather than how much (within reason obvi)

I am posting this from the point of view of a creator.

Our work is chronicly undervalued and honestly I think asking customers for valuations of stuff is a way to have everything you make be given away for free.
