    daily reminder that pnp rpgs should 100% be narrativist in system design and autistic spreadsheet combat "simulationism" belongs solely in video games

    Who plays pnp games besides the big ones ?
    I mean, actually play them, not oneshot them for the sake of it or during some event.

    I guess because his job now appears to be 'randomly give suggestions (that will probably be ignored) to people actually working on games'.

    Josh has likely worked more hours in his life than most of you cucks combined. He deserves a breather – lay off the Stakhanovite pipe.

    I kinda feel bad for Sawyer spending so much time on this TTRPG when basically nobody is going to play it.

    He seems to be having fun though.

    He is paid for having a fun working experience. Even if it didn't sell he can always comeback designing CRPG later, he is a big name after all.

    Burnout is a thing after all.

    Yes, even the stained glass window in the entryhall shows the old artwork for Baldurs Gate: The Black Hound.
