"why are games so expensive"
"why are mass layoffs happening"
"why are games getting cancelled"
"why did that popular studio close"

it's capitalism. capitalism is why all of this is happening. the rampant prioritizing of profit over the all else, from price and quality to dev health and well being.

The internet manner.

Hella busy week in rpg department:
Monday: Symbaroum, we had a great session
Tuesday(today): I'm running D&D 3.5
Wednesday: Invisible Sun
Thursday: Another D&D 3.5 campaign, this one goes on for 4 years already
Friday: Draw Steel, in this one I'm a player and my character is a high elf Talent <3

I need to learn how to sketch storyboards

Reddit post saying "idk I want to have to think. I like thinking."

this random reddit answer to yet another prompt-based software will be overused by me from now on

Kult: Divinity Lost. It was the first system I ran that was encouraging towards exploration of darker themes and roleplaying emotions that are rarely expressed in fantasy narratives. It was cathartic.

A ship sails a river with steep mountainous banks. There are trees in the foreground and mist in the background.

Many things honestly, but I'm evil nonetheless

This is still the best video game box art, and I won't hear anything else on the subject.

The thing that impresses me the most in Cypher systems (Invisible Sun, Numenera, Cypher) is how easy you can go from thinking of an interesting NPC to having them ready to implement into the session with all mechanical aspects in place.
Less than a minute and they are fleshed out.

Just got the news I was waiting for: my Symbaroum campaign is coming back from a hiatus! All the players are ready for tomorrow, we have a lot to recap since it's one of my most ambitious narratives when it comes to intrigue between multiple factions. Can't wait to see what will emerge.

A friend decided to run Draw Steel for us, I'm excited to play again. Maybe I'll make a Conduit this time?

Vibe-based lifeform, as I am.

I have a bomb web-comic idea, but can't draw. My life is a cage of my own, unintelligent design

Image of the Morrowind map half explored. Dialogue boxes say "every bit of joy you steal in this world is a little revolution".

I wrote a pretty good adventure for my D&D3.5 campaign and my friends tell me I should rewrite it for Draw Steel and publish. I guess I'll do it, I wonder if more people will like it. It contains a pretty good moral conundrum and one of the best bossfights I designed.

Did.. did you expect something else, huh ?

The summary for the end of the session is also great and helps us:
- keep track of everything that happened
- get instant feedback on the events in the campaign
- reward players with meta-currencies (acumen, joy, despair) without pausing the roleplay during session

I really like it

First session of Invisible Sun is behind us. First thing I want to mention: character arcs system is so good for driving the narrative forward purely with players agenda in mind...

Being a bisexual emperor must be the most stressful shit in the world. You go to the inner palace and your wives are scheming. You go to the outer court and the male concubines that you promoted to viziers are fighting. Your wife just poisoned your favorite twink eunuch. There’s no peace

just did 63 damage on a level 1 fury in Draw Steel after getting the shit kicked out of us by a mutant pig, this game rules

Promotional artwork for "Soulbound: Champions of Chaos," featuring a fantastical creature with horns and a scaly green serpent, set against a fiery orange background. The logos for Warhammer Age of Sigmar, Cubicle 7, and EN Publishing are also visible.

Champions of Chaos scorn everything save the whims of the Ruinous Powers, as the rewards they grant are great and terrible.

I highly recommend that

We have created the characters for Invisible Sun with my players and I already know we will have tons of fun. As fortes(quirks) they have the following:
-Speaks with the Moon
-Explores the Noösphere
-Renounces the Light
Every character is from a different order, but the have close bonds. I'm excited

2-panel comic titled "True Power" bare-shirted fighter: UAAAAAAAGGGHHHHHHHH! I can feel the power overflowing! Master! What is this... bald, bearded master: I don't know... That's scary...

I say "I don't know... that's scary..." a lot because of this comic

I could step in for Woolie for one episode no problem. HMU

why is everything so expensive?
why are so many shows and games cancelled?
why are mass layoffs so common?
why is health insurance not covering basic needs?
why is housing so out of control?

billionaires. the problem is always billionaires.
