It needs be qualified that this obe has good ideas but stumbles with accessibility for newcomers. It works best for people already familiar with the flow of forged in the dark games but fails to teach that flow on its own. Best paired with the FITD SRD in such situations

I would love to know more about this tidbit cause it's news to me.

It's both, because dutch is a silly language like that :3. But yes, the allusion should be clear enough

I have considered making a blades in the dark hack. It has quite a few of the elements. Underworld organisations, a place you can't just leave if things get bad, slowly cracking under the pressure of stress

most PBTA games come with handouts that cover the necessities in a half hour read or so.

Hitpoints are very much an artifact of what it's trying to emulate and can be at odds with the idea that a full hit is a full success. It's one tjing, but its fundamental presence reverberates throughout

There's also an aspect of user error then. The strictness wuth which terms are enforced is also worth discussing though.

I do not recommend dungeon world. It's enough like D&D to make people focus on the wrong things

Just don't forget to close em behind you. No one likes a drafty building

If communication was a widely develop skill r/rpghorrorstories wouldn't exist. And that's the memorably bad botton end of the spectrum

Hello. I am the fellowship guy who owns every second edition book. Might be starting up a game of it in like... Four weeks. Feel free to slide on into my DMs if you're interested:)

I was around for the upwards wave of superhero fiction where MASKS was everywhere and unfortunately too many forgot about the teenage part of teenage superheroes.

Alas, they tore it down where I live. The dedicated biker bridge replacing it is pretty neat though
