Wasn’t the textile company buy just nepotistic fraud done before Williams or am I thinking of another inexplicable acquisition?

Kanji’s entire story arc is literally “Thank Christ, he’s Not Gay” and the less said about the trans misreading of the game the better so P4 still loving sucks. Pour one out to the last good Persona, 2.

Tradgames existed before Gygax, would exist without Gygax, and honestly often existed despite Gygax. We don’t need to keep parroting the hagiography of a racist libertarian nut job in this hobby, it’s 2019.

Don’t use the term “fly over state” as a pejorative when discussing how we shouldn’t stereotype Americans as monolingual dumbasses, maybe?

It’s amazing that Everyone thinks the problem is that people are just Not Ready To Talk About Race and not the way they stumbled in with the most basic take like it was something new and complex. Some real living in 1919 poo poo.

Yeah, Wings! seems like it be a really easy adaption. Either your party has pre-existing hooks where they can effectively be plus ones for a wedding of someone they sort of know about, or they can just be hired to be at the wedding because of course you hire a group of morally flexible sellswords for weddings. poo poo like one of the couple getting grabbed by a huge bird is a noted risk in D&D fantasy world.

Everyone posted:That was in the original game. In TORG: Eternity, the CP's had cybertechnology for quite some time now. Though if anything it's even stranger than it was in the old game. For one thing, the Scientific Method isn't really a thing in the CP. Science didn't create their technology. Instead, for most of its existence, technology came through prayer. People would pray and someone would receive a divine vision of some technological thingie. The entire drat technological infrastructure is basically "black box" technology. I get why it was taken out to avoid the demon Metaplot, but this is definitely one of the places that's a step back in the new TORG. The friction of the two sides of Cyber-Papacy happening because of the Darkness Device and one dudes whims, logic be damned, was actually a good way to demonstrate both the large scale the antagonists could work at while also showing that even their biggest reality shifting moves are imperfect and exploitable.

PurpleXVI posted:Yeah, but I can't imagine ever having someone put my players into a contractual leglock and force them to do things without my players plotting every single vengeful bit of wriggle-room they can find to eventually spitefully tear said person's face off. Perhaps that's why I, as a player, would absolutely expect someone to plan to do the same to me. Plus, I don't think: "you blackmailed our buddy, so now we're going to be civilized and only blackmail you." necessarily follows. If I've blackmailed someone who's got powerful and loyal friends, or perhaps allies that greatly benefit from their not being blackmailed, I don't see any reason why they'd hold back from just rendering me into chunky salsa if they could get away with it and don't need me for anything. Sounds like a skill issue, buddy.

Serf posted:Reminds me of Uncharted 2 where at the end the villain does the whole "we're not so different, you and I" thing and Drake is like "no" but you just spent the last 10 hours or so gunning down a truly staggering amount of mooks to get here. It shows the limitations of what videogames can do, but it's also very funny. Drake's actually right, though, because the villain Lazarevic killed a lot of people doing warcrimes and Nathan just killed a bunch of war criminals. That's fundamentally different.

If you told me that this thread would convince one of the two people who did Ars Magica reviews to stop posting in it I wouldn’t have guessed it’d be the one who didn’t gently caress it up from the jump, but so it goes.
