Heartwarmed and flattered by a new crop of folks getting into Caves of Qud on Switch. If you're having trouble with how deranged it is at the start, please stick with it: it gets much worse

Fallen London: The Roleplaying Game An officially-licensed tabletop roleplaying game set in the deep, dark and marvellous city of Fallen London. Welcome, delicious friend.

I've spent a large portion of this week reviewing material for Fallen London: The Roleplaying Game, which has reminded me to mention that it's coming and you can still bag yourself books and peripheral goodies.

If you've ever craved a Big Book of Fallen London, this should satisfy!

loot does not drop upon defeating me. the developers didn't expect anyone to attack me, i am so vulnerable, and only trying to help. why did you raise your sword? for material gain? i would give you anything i have if you had only asked. i did not ask to be in this game, i did not ask to have 6hp.

Moby Dick has some of the best sentences in the English language, fight me

and i thank you every day for it

god, TR-49 really is an excellent piece of work

reacher is incredible. a show that truly believes that being incredibly large and incredibly offline can solve almost any problem
