Is the bandwagon still ongoing?

If you want to over analyze it, there was that one tweet about insulin prices going down during the blue check mark fiasco, that resulted in the prices actually changing because of the hope/rugpull effect it caused.

But even considering that is giving the guy too much credit for his record.

Didn't the coke company come out and said something along the lines of "sorry to hear that, but we got no plans for doing that." ?

Just ask the player what they would want to happen and how they envision it to happen.

Entertaining rant. 👍
When you learn about how whaling works in freemium games it taints every future enjoyment out of them. :/

Isn't that in function more closer to a locked door rather then a trap?

You are like the Jacob Geller of the indie ttrpg scene on itch.

Why not just put a wall there if you want players to go down a specific route? Asking because if there is something worthwhile behind the trap then it would fall under the "to be overcome" part, wouldn't it?

My theory for that is that the way we talk about both of these roles in our hobby is just so different. When you look at GM advice it's all about how to make cool scenes. And for players its all about dealing with the mechanics.

oh this is good. i checked out the full song and i like how it stays down to earth and mellow. 👍

"if everything is a hammer, ... " type problem.

this is perfect for Numenera

do you get sneak attack tho?

i think you first need to identify what your gameplay loop is. if its raids villages, mines and dungeons and then go slay the big beasts. that could easily be turned into a ttrpg. the base building is way more tricky.

what game are you thinking of? i struggle to think of an example.

damn, that's some really good lighting
