Realised I’ve just finished writing a wargame?
Like just right now. That’s pretty neat! A lot of work to do. Still got the campaign stuff to do. but it’s a functioning and fun wargame!
I decided to make it and now it exists.
That’s why I love traditional games so much. You can just do it!

I can’t wait to playtest my mecha wargame again. Playtest one was very fun. I’ve ironed out some kinks time to find some more problems! Haha

Saying I’ve been designing games for 30 years is technically true.
Sure I was like 8 and it was silly board games but I’ve always been designing. technically I’m a Veteran game designer. HAHAHA

Also I think I’m just monogamous myself mostly out of laziness tbh. I don’t think I have the energy for more than one partner. I theoretically could have multiple but I don’t think I’d be giving my best. Maybe there’s situations where that’s fine but that’s not really what I’m after.

So I’m personally monogamous but like chill with polyamory. My relationship is open because like I’m chill and she’s poly. It’s hard ignoring the mono brainwashing tho. My instant thoughts are like always negative but as soon as I actually THINK about it they are positive.
Especially for me!

The soul crushing thing about dating apps for me wasn’t the like rejection or like ghosting or whatever that didn’t bother me.
It was the commodification of romance and how it made me look at and feel about real people in a kinda gross systematic way. It’s just so depersonalised.

Can’t believe I used to look up to this guy. Congrats on being the steward of turning magic into a platform for advertisers first, a cash cow for hasbro second and a game like somewhere down the bottom.
Here’s to many more years of broken promises and caving to corporate pressure

From leading set designs to tirelessly answering fan questions to your weekly articles to signing cards at any event you attend, thank you!

RPGs should lock you out of shit more often. It’s why Bethesda RPGs are so ass they let you do every thing with one character regardless of like their ability or whatever so it dilutes how cool certain options can be. Being the arch mage of winterhold with minimal magic ability is ass
