I have never seen any of these films (and probably won't), I'm just here to applaud you saying that what other people liked fucking sucked ass. Too often people are afraid to stand up for what they believe, including that something fucking sucked ass

This is a dystopian game, so sure, why not put the player in a bad mood before you even start playing

Putting the key that randomizes your character's appearance and permanently erases all your work right next to the keys that rotate your character so you can look at them is such a choice move, great job guys

Latest stretch goal: Adding superpowers to the Year Zero Engine SRD. If I'm going to make a YZE version of GRIDSHOCK, this would make my life much, much easier. Maybe back it if you were on the fence until now?

Back on the TTRPG editing grind.

We have put so much work into Terminal State. It's Chris' game and the bulk of the work is his, by an order of magnitude, but now that I'm editing the thing I'm allowed to say "we"

Surprised to find a couple of (very thorough) summaries of two of the GRIDSHOCK 20XX zines on Reviews from R'lyeh recently.

It sounds pretty nuts when you boil it all down the way these reviews to, and I guess it kinda is!

A rather old-looking collage image of a ruined castle on an island, with a green dragon taking flight into a starry night sky.

I wrapped up a year-long Dragonbane campaign last night. That's the longest stretch of uninterrupted time I've spent running any TTRPG, by far.

I had a few problems with the adventure, but I definitely got my money's worth out of Path of Glory. Thanks, Free League!

There probably won't be tons of powers out of the gate, but that's just a guess. The designers can handle most of the characters from the comics without a huge list of powers, but I'd assume they'd add more in short order. I'd like to see how (or if) one can customize the powers with drawbacks, etc.

I was a little skeptical of how it would handle supers, but so far the free quickstart and the YouTube interview Tomas Harenstam did about make it look pretty straightforward and good (also, incidentally rather close to what I was doing for GRIDSHOCK YZE, though gritty in a different way).

It's been fun to see YZE's core audience announce that they're not big fans of superheroes, but Free League's Invincible RPG looks like it was their excuse to make a TSR Marvel Superheroes (FASERIP)-style game using the Year Zero Engine, and I'm absolutely on board with that. Target audience: me.

Games I will never run (and that's probably good because nobody would want to play): A Traveller campaign inspired by 1970s British SF TV, art of the style compiled in the Terran Trade Authority books, and Part Time's Cryosleep Explorer concept album.

Right, but if you want to compare it something that's around now I'd say it's more like, I dunno, a warthog or something
