Playtest packet update was supposed to go out today, but I was busy finishing holiday shopping just in time to realize my refrigerator broke. Ugh. Rules will be up by the end of the weekend though.

With less than 12 hours left in the year, we've finished the first major revision/iteration of The Dead & the Damned. Very excited for what 2024 is going to bring!

Realism isn't artistically pointless, fwiw. However, these two IPs have different goals entirely. One is meant to be taken in slowly and the narrative explores life itself / love / morality. The other is meant for spamming dodge roll while being chased by flying vagina dragons.

I haven't kept up with the ENnies in years due to my loathing of the #ttrpg "industry", but all the awards to The Arcane Library for Shadowdark and Free League Publishing getting Publisher of the Year are very, very well deserved. Congrats!

I just don't. I can't. I don't. I have no idea how this UI shipped. I love you Hunt: Showdown but it's been over a week now for me to try and be positive, give the benefit of the doubt, and just assume it's 3k hours of muscle memory and I'm in the wrong. I'm not. It's very bad.

D&D isn't an approachable game for people who are new to RPGs and there are far better games out there to teach new people. I wrote about this years ago here: dreadgazebo.net/the-approachab… Update for 2024 though: #dnd is a subpar game published by an awful company. Play anything else.

Spent my lunch break creating John Goblikon inside Age of Wonders 4 | Thrones of Blood Out Now! because it lets get creative like that. Can't wait to conquer the realms using my VERY GOOD and not at all evil Goblins, unlike trolls who are definitely THE WORST. John's second in command will be Ron Funchlikon.

Ah yes, I love pointless buttons in the Hunt: Showdown UI. When you click this one and try and zoom in to look at a hunter, the scroll wheel just changes the model to another one in the same column...you know...instead of zooming. Also, every Hunter's bio is now just...gone.🤡🤡

I hope if anyone over in the Hunt: Showdown studio sees this, that they know that it was made with love and appreciation. I owe a few friendships and the core of my inspiration to create my own occult western #ttrpg to this game. #huntshowdown youtube.com/watch?v=lQrkr-…
