Exquisite Dragon 1e by CALICOVISIONS A game of chaos and invisible collaboration!

Hey, I forgot I could post this here! A group of friends and myself did a little project; a tabletop game where each mechanic was designed in isolation, to be put together later. Check it out!

Setting the Stage Episode 72 – CalicoVisions and Psychomortis CalicoVisions tells us about his game system and setting Psychomortis. The game is constructed to challenge players and characters to look inside themselves to find what's really important to them. In the far future the Earth has suffered from the arrival of the Iris which caused vast changes across the world. PCs are trapped beneath the Earth in a vast maze known as Pandora's Labyrinth.

Do you like philosophy and introspection? This episode of Setting the Stage explores how Calico used philosophical ideas to build a campaign setting and TTRPG

I am legitimately more excited to play my friend's 2 page generic fantasy ruleset than I ever have been to play literally any edition of D&D

"I'm so glad you're all here!" shouts the madman in the empty room

Lots of modern sequels to old beloved classics have also attempted this same idea-- but I feel like NG4 is the only one to actually pull it off properly, in such that it feels respectful and like it actually believes what it's selling. It feels genuine and earnest compared to its peers

There's a lot of effort put into making Ryu feel more powerful than Yakumo by several factors, and I think that's intentional. I feel the goal was to create this idea that Yakumo is part of the "new generation" that must train become LIKE Ryu, emulating him aspirationally. Ragebound also does this.

Especially with how NG4 kind of mythologizes Ryu, turning his presentation into this terrifying force of nature that educates and guards the gates to final success, who must be defeated in some way before you can become a "true hero". It feels like somebody writing about a scary but cool dad

There's this general feeling of "aspiration" when it comes to these new characters, and I think that this is a reflection of the general public's perspective of these characters. "They're old and dads now" type thinking. This leads to the audience feeling like they have to move on from them, I think

Just beat #NinjaGaiden4 today. It was kind of weird and bad, and doesn't really appeal to me like the first two did. I'm noticing a weird trend in games where new protagonists are made and written to "carry the torch". Since the old characters are ones that the new game writers grew up with--

Feeling a little better today. I'm still trying to relax but I think I can feel some of my excitement for my project come back.
Anyways, look at this little doodle
