#Enshrouded respawning of the enemy also made me realize, how it didn't bother me with #ZeldaBreathOfTheWild. Monster and bandits respawning in Enshrouded feels so "gamey", since there is no clear reason in the game. Animals can wander, so that makes a little more sense.

My major issue with #Enshrouded is the reset of the world after a restart or 2 hours. You can impact the whole world, but only a chosen area will stay that way. So any environment story-telling about your actions will just vanish. Kind of sad.

I guess, for both #Enshrouded and #ZeldaTearsOfTheKingdom making large areas inaccessible, having logical world building and creating a thread for the story, Miasma is properly an obvious choice. Natural hazards like swamps, lava, etc. need to fit the area. Magical Miasma can be anywhere.

Playing #Enshrouded with a friend and it fun to build and have adventure. It is heavily inspired by #ZeldaBreathofTheWild with #Fortnite and #Valheim building elements. Which makes it an happy accident, that #ZeldaTearsofTheKingdom and Enshrouded both use Miasma as an center element.

So after working through the night yesterday and finishing my #CallOfCthulhu One-Shoot, played it today at an open event at a library in Fürstenfeldbruck, Bavaria. The people at my table liked it very much and we had fun. Needed to rush the ending, because 6 hours was too short at the end. 1/4

Always the same question with #CallOfCthulhu: Why wouldn't the player just go at the early part of the plot? " Then there is no game." is a weak excuse for the overall plot. Players should have something to excuse their characters with for facing obvious danger.

Even making a short OneShoot in #CallOfCthulhu forces you to research some obscure info, like the politics of senators from Vermont between 1880 and 1930. Or the history of railroad construction in that state around the same time. One of the fun parts.

Planing a one-shoot for #CallofCthulhu: "A senator hires a engineering firm (players) to verify a tunnel construction. At the secluded site the few residents secretly try to stop them. In the tunnel the players discover a seal that holds a creature and realize the project must be stopped."
