I was thinking more jokey. Not necessarily creepy, just weird. My plan was to make rules for all the weird meme spells like Greater Baja Blast

I'm working on a Tome of Forbidden Spells just to see what my players will do with weird magic

I know it's not quite the same, but Song of the Beast by Carol Berg is kinda like this. The book starts after the main character is released from a 20 year prison sentence and he's trying to find out why he was in there in the first place

Technically you still use weapons but you start with a 100% damage penalty and get points and experience for leaving as many monsters as possible alive

I've played a bit, it's a fun game and the characters are unique enough to give it some depth. There's even a pacifist character

Mulan gets shit done. Most of the others don't even have any confirmed kills

About 5 pounds iirc. Don't ask

Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicavolcanoconiosis. It's just not a word that comes up often

Neither. It sounds like Arabic because The Southlands are, of course, based on the middle east

idc what anyone says, Blades in the Dark is not a PbtA game. It has like 2 things in common with PbtA systems

Also PbtA systems are great for a story focused games, but they're not exactly tactical and characters tend to be a little static. They focus on story pretty much to the exclusion of everything else. If you want story though go for it, they're great. I prefer more of a balance personally.

Worlds Without Number focuses on sandbox play and strikes a nice balance with story and combat. Stars Without Number is basically the Sci-fi version. Both are free with premium versions that have a bit of nice optional content, like more powerful options for heroic characters and Star Wars style space magic

Why would we change it though? We'd need to change way too much in order to do that. Just because the system started with fingers, doesn't mean fingers is where it is now

I need to test this

Fuck, shit, ass, bitch. Let's see which words get removed if any

The Fertility and Health words can be surprisingly nasty in Godbound. Fertility comes with an end the bloodline ability and a cancer beam, and health comes with diseases and involuntary resurrection. Scary shit for such friendly sounding powers

That top guy seems like a strong candidate

I don't really mind the non-replacable batteries tbh. Water resistance is much harder when you need to design your phone with a removable battery.

I do want the SD card slots back though. I don't care about having two Sim cards, I want my enormous local storage that I can transfer in 8-10 seconds back

Sure, but the last Futurama reboot was a long time ago. I can't think of too many good reboots that have come out since

Fair, but there hasn't been a decent reboot of anything in forever.

So I'm going in with no expectations to avoid disappointment. If it's good I'll be happy, if it's bad I won't be surprised

What I wanna know is how Kirby has more lore than My Little Pony. He's a blob with a one-word vocabulary.

He's got a surprising amount of lore attached. He's also canonically way more powerful than you'd expect

Yes. It's a pain in the ass though since the pirated versions run at nearly twice the frame rate sometimes

The worst of all the DRMs
