That Nile cover is straight up a Jojo's Bizarre Adventure RPG book.

They scored with Ghostbusters and kept trying to get water from a well that was never that wet to begin with.

I just really wish they fleshed out Ghostbusters in general. Now there was a good game.

Yeah, Fish Fridays have been a Catholic thing for a long, long time. It may not have been double plus official stamped by a Pope until 1966, but that doesn't make it nonexistent before then. We even have Papal dispensation that calls beaver a fish for the relief of missionaries working with First Nation groups in the 16-1700s.

Midjack posted:Where's the bonus for illustrating someone being transformed and subsequently eaten? 4 or 5 funbux, it says it right there. You'd obviously be drawing a Witch Girl Adventure character doing Witch Girl Adventures!

It's just that slight hint of needless exoticism in naming someone Bruja that evens it out for me. I wonder if they looked it up or just played Arkham Asylum. (I may or may not only be familiar with the term thanks to Alan Moore and Jay Hawkins but dammit I didn't write a fetish RPG)

The life lesson is not buying terrible things for pennies on the dollar. Syrg is busting out of this a changed person.

You crawl into dungeons....to solve dungeon problems. Help the goblins get that pesky rust monster under control, unravel the love septangle in the Myconid outpost, just hang out with the kobolds. GSS as hell.

It was more Marvel never pasted their wacky poo poo on the cover. Remember the time where the Punisher turned black? Or Nightcrawler got caught in the middle of a leprechaun gang war? Werewolf Cap?

I don't know what's better, the legitimately excellent Luchadore class (What if Luchadore Kayfabe....WAS REAL) or the fact that the PsiWatch classes are still ripoffs of Wildstorm characters. Of course El Hijo Del Santo can punch ghosts, just like dad!

The only time that really happened was the lovely first review of Ars Magica that skipped over the entire segment on the history of Ars Magica Purple XVI was just used to making GBS threads on bad games I guess.

Yeah, saying semiotics is just the study of what @ and Q are is seriously, painfully, almost offensively reductive. In a world of actual factual magic having signifier and signified being important is an actual interesting twist. I mean, it's sort of like saying psychotherapy is the study of curing poobrain. Yeah sure, reductio ad absurdum.

Shoah is so good it makes the rest of the oWoD look even shittier because that's the sort of quality and respect their 'taboo' poo poo should have contained.

To be fair, looking at 7th Sea and deciding d20 Modern is a better choice points to a healthy disregard for things like balance. EDIT: pretty sure Mors did mention it on the last thread. poo poo was dire even for the era of square hole 20 sided peg design.

I don't really see how unless you have someone at the table that doesn't buy into it. The idea if a game of doomed jerk wads with a stratified culture of back biting and deception being a game where antagonism and cooperation exist in the same mechanics might actually be, dare I say it? Sensical. I know, Wick Delanda Est, but it might just be that he's not a literal drooling incompetent. Just maybe.
|
# ¿ Oct 26, 2013 20:07 |

The problem I'm seeing here can be solved simply by going into the game with everyone on the same page, acting like adults playing a game. I know for our hobby that can be difficult, but you can't blame Wick for that.

No system really survives players being manchildren, though. A shitlord will ruin any game.

If you don't want to discuss it anymore, sure. I'm just saying that there's intent here beyond the Machinations of the Devil Wick.

When you realize that House Of The Blooded is just Wick recreating Polaris, things make more sense.

# ¿ Oct 31, 2013 14:18 |

If you want to run a game of doomed anything, run it in Polaris or the even better Moorish Spain version whose name escapes me.

# ¿ Oct 31, 2013 14:46 |

Yes! Lehman even said that Thou Art But A Warrior did everything he was trying to do in Polaris more effectively than Polaris. EDIT: http://www.indie-rpgs.com/archive/index.php?topic=23815.0 Here's Ben's play report of it.

AccidentalHipster posted:It's the closest that Can we please, this one last time I will ask, stop calling John Wick a bad person because he is a bad game designer. I get it. He makes bad unfun games and likes poison and is therefore scum. You can stop constantly stating that he's a huge manchild and if he was dying in the desert it'd be a favor to let him dry out.
