The fact that they both failed to anticipate the memes and were also bothered by them seems like a real bad sign for this game. The only way this can work is if they lean into the cheese, but this makes it sound like the bullshit/buttrock scene was supposed to be 100% serious. Which, uh oh!

What you have to understand about Conservatism is at its core, it is about preserving an in-group protected by the law but not bound by it, and an out-group bound by the law but not protected by it.
Given the guy’s political views that doesn’t really shock me. Stubbornly refusing to accept things as they are and demanding they conform to your view of things is very on brand for a right wing chud like Cawthon.
I’m actually gonna die mad about cawthon being a gem about quality control and offering free content, and then all the while turning his fat merch checks over to assholes who’d make sure I’d get drawn and quartered in the street for being queer. Fuck scott cawthon and anyone who’d defend him for “having an opinion.”
But I also thought his whole shtick after all that was that he was stepping away from the franchise. If that were true, they shouldn’t give two shits what he thinks. The bigger story here IMO is what it potentially means behind the scenes of the series and what’s really going on rather than what he claims is going on.
Absolutely, I appreciate their willingness to throw money at small creators on the constant gamble that they’ll generate another massive hit relative to its budget, but wow dude is a pretty onerous dipshit to hitch your horse to.
I think it’s a bit more specific than just typical cut costs to juke margins BS. And like the article points out, this ain’t new.
My parents just went through something with their 10 year old RV that finally has them replacing it. The frame suspension failed catastrophically. The camper basically collapsed on the…
I bet it’s tangential, but not a primary cause. The main cause is what makes most things go to shit in a capitalistic society - C-suite idiots chasing this quarter’s profits above every other concern. Cheaper materials used, cheaper labor sought, less attention paid not only to QC, but to the assembly process itself.…
He is going to plead he has Affluenza and can’t be held responsible like that other little dipshit that killed people with his car in Texas
“No.” - Wealthy people with connections
Yes, tired of Colorado being a cross section of these people and van-lifers constantly accidentally setting forests on fire or completely destroying natural sites (whether it’s constantly rolling off of mountain trails or overwhelming hiking trails with their dogs shitting everywhere)
Right?? When it goes off-the-rails about halfway through, it’s so intense and so wrong, you almost feel like you’re losing your mind.
The virus is airborne. If you’re in the same room, it kinda doesn’t really matter how far away you are.
Just a note: even indoors distancing still does matter. There was one MIT study that was badly communicated that made it seem like Covid would mix equally in the room but that’s generally not true. The distance is likely greater than 6 feet, and distancing doesn’t matter as much indoors, but it still does matter.
Baller move. Yeah, don’t tell people things will be outside and then just construct a building in an outdoor space. That just makes it inside again! I’ve seen so many restaurants do this - offer outdoor space, then essentially build another building in the street with four walls and a ceiling. You just recreated…
Oh jeez I wasn’t aware one of Dungeon World’s writers had stuff come out about them. Eesh.
My main fantasy recc was Dungeon World which now has a weird legacy on account of one of its writers. I’ve heard great things about Quest as a really streamlined system!
The folks who make Lancer just released the playtest rules for their fantasy equivalent: Icon. It plays very similarly, but in a fantasy-punk world, and contains a lot of fun allusions to Final Fantasy, including giving characters limit breaks. All the different classes seem like allusions to different fantasy…
