i dumped so much money into stellaris DLCs after the 3 rework of the base game i just about had it, i paid more than enough and then some for a complete video game, i’m going to get a complete video game
that’s the comedy of it all, until they get abandoned for the next game in the series, paradox games are never done, they’re essentially in early access
i’m boo boo the clown, i don’t know how i could not find this tweet
no link = not real
i’m sorry paradox can’t scam $1 more out of me, i’m pirating their shit on principle
imagine it calling it the switch 2 and not the dom
brother we should bring back drawing and quartering let alone the guillotine
yeah, you’ll never get a mortgage again but what are you supposed to do, live in rent while paying mortgage on a fucking pile of rubble
consider, the humble breaking wheel
i think you’re right on the money and that’s what, i think, all the “why don’t the coomers just watch porno” conceptions miss; it’s not about them not being able to jerk off to a game they’d never play anyway, it’s the realisation that culture can exist without appealing to their sensibilities at all, that game makers can ignore them and do fine after all
that’s why their battlecry is “go woke, go broke” right, “you need us, you can’t ignore us” and that’s why they lose their shit when games do just fine without them and they have to uncover the blackrock soros DEI sweet baby bogeyman
fellas, is it gay to read
womp, womp, why not ship it overseas from greatest ally US, do they want putin to win?!
there’s a got dang cheeto in the white house

sounds cool, what’s the name of the book that doesn’t have the fash shit in it?
yeah, spire does seem like the wet dream of “the urban campaign”; as time went by i came to value more the games that don’t suddenly pause to play a kinda mid combat miniatures game “in-between all the roleplaying”
as for stress, systems will often have some way of weighing the players down, to kind of ask them what’s important enough to them that they’re willing to take a gutpunch for it
funnily enough, i am interested in “getting back into GMing” which i have done only under duress years and years ago but kind of wanna start doing again
i’ve played a bit of “the heart” made by the same people, using the same system and largely compatible (from what i’ve heard) with “the spire” but that game is naturally a lot shorter (it’s concerned with what your character wants and finding it so after like 10 sessions, pcs started either dying or leaving the adventuring life behind
i heard about the spire but sadly never got around to playing it; what do you like about it? how “deep” are you in the TTRPG rabbit hole?
deeply enjoyed it but the cyberspace sections tried my patience in places, i wish i knew so i could have turned their difficulty down before starting the game
damn, now i wanna find the version of this meme that was about imperial china
