What happens when some classic board or card game is a series of scripted encounters?

Could you build a little RPG out of all the parts of FTL, sorta like the Blizzard RTS campaign missions without bases?

Is there a take on Vampire Survivors that pours some degree of the Castlevania BACK IN?!

A series of bear encounters across Japan has raised significant concerns, particularly in Hokkaido, where a bear charged at a car, forcing the driver to reverse for safety. This incident is part of a broader trend, with multiple prefectures reporting aggressive bear behavior and issuing

The lack of media literacy from a supposedly talented author that's displayed here is astonishing. Casino Royale explicitly opens with Bond gaining his 00 status. It's clearly a reboot. Later in the series he encounters Blofeld *for the first time* and it's clearly not the same guy from the 60s...

James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”

Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:

“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."

In this exhibition, Harris brings together two complementary bodies of work: a series of oil paintings inspired by the coastline of North Mayo, and a group of large-scale paintings featuring a single flower motif. While these flower paintings mark a new direction in the artist's practice, they remain deeply connected to his experience of the Mayo landscape. Harris's fascination with the light, space, and profound sense of nothingness that he encounters on long walks through the boglands of North Mayo informs both strands of this exhibition. The flower and landscape motifs stand side by side as testaments to the silvery light and quiet expansiveness of this western terrain. Through these works, Harris renders…”

They're then followed by a sequel that is very ambitious, and are widely considered the best in their series, but are also kind of bloated with their reliance on instanced missions and setpieces over the way their predecessors more naturally weaved encounters into the world.

Zombie (WESKER 004)
Artist: Qi Wu

#ResidentEvil #REBHFun #バイオハザード
Flavor Text: Devoid of thought or feeling, its body continues to move about nonetheless. What could it be seeking? A zombie (Resident Evil) covered in blood as it walks through a hallway. This zombie in particular is the design used in the first Resident Evil game, and given the narrow hallway it's shown in here, it’s also likely based on one of the very first encounters a player can have with a zombie in the series. This card also appears with the name 'Infected (T006)'

I keep trying to figure out if "fight back to London" is a typo, but I genuinely can imagine you traveling in a series of fisticuffs encounters a la Russel Crowe.

"Scenes from the Class Struggle in Springfield," is a kind of heartbreaking episode of Marge trying to fit in with Springfield's upper class.

Marge & that suit!😭🥺 What an episode! I remember later that year I saw a children's pink suit like it at Ross (bizarre lol) & my mom refused to buy it.
"Scenes from the Class Struggle in Springfield" is the fourteenth episode of the seventh season of the American animated television series The Simpsons. It originally aired on Fox in the United States on February 4, 1996.[2] In this episode, Marge buys a Chanel suit and, invited to join the Springfield Country Club, becomes obsessed with trying to fit in with Springfield's upper class. The Simpsons travel to the Ogdenville mall to buy a new television after Grampa breaks their old one. Marge and Lisa visit a discount store, where Marge finds a $2800 Chanel suit on sale for $90. Later Marge encounters an old classmate, Evelyn, at the Kwik-E-Mart. Evelyn is impressed by Marge's fashion sense and invites her to the Springfield Country Club. Desperately trying to fit in with Evelyn's snobby friends at the club, Marge ignores their catty remarks after she wears the same Chanel suit on each visit. Lisa enjoys horseback riding at the club, but the rest of the family is uncomfortable there. After being trained by Tom Kite, Homer plays golf on the club's greens and learns Waylon Smithers is helping Mr. Burns cheat while caddying for him. In exchange for Homer's silence, Burns agrees to help Marge join the club. Marge tries to alter her suit for the club membership ceremony, but Lisa annoys her constantly about horses, causing her to snap. After Lisa leaves the room, Marge finishes her dress but accidentally steps on her sewing machine's foot control pedal, destroying it. She's now forced her to buy a new Chanel evening gown. As the family walks toward the party, Marge criticizes everyone else's behavior. When Homer tells the children they should thank her for pointing out how bad they really are, Marge realizes she has changed for the worse. The family skips the party and goes to Krusty Burger instead, unaware that the club has accepted Marge's membership.

i love the smaller, more streamlined skill trees. between giving you lots of skills that are useful right off the bat and having a smaller, more predictable possibility space to design battles around, these early game encounters are already some of the most engaging in the series so far

In A Dance of Bow & Blade, Uncanny Encounters Series, and in my Be Series, I could see the characters doing podcasts on different folklore & legends. Apparently it is a very common occurrence in my writing! 😅

Tell me more about your #AwesomeCharacters

Let's do a hypothetical today! Your character(s) are hosting a podcast!

What topic are they discussing? Are they serious and doing research, or more fun and relaxed? Who is hosting and who is doing other tasks?

I’ve enjoyed the endgame “dungeon-type” areas in both MHST1 & 2, but I’m especially partial to the Labyrinth from the first. Randomly generated layouts, encounters, & loot are exciting & refreshing to me.
Enjoy a new video for the MHST1 #ReturnToStories Series!

I think Dolmenwood is pretty incredible. Its origins, a series of zines back in the heyday of the OSR, were enormously influential to me.

The creativity is unmatched. The vibes are immaculate. It's so fun to have robust tools to explore, generate lairs, create encounters.
