@Tyche said in Good TV:

Amazon has picked up The Man in the High Castle for a 2nd season! Yay!

I thought that happened ages ago?

Now that Castle is over Firefly can come back ahahaha.

Shang Chi is going to be in Iron Fist.

@Rick-Sanchez said in The State of the Chronicles of Darkness:

@Arkandel Thing is, Mage allowed you to do a lot of things that were probably not the best idea. Like scrutiny. You can give basically everyone you meet the hairy eyeball to determine if they're a supernatural or not. The amount of time it takes -- about three seconds -- is negligible. If you aren't doing this, you're stupid. But if you acted on this, they called it "icon twinking" or whatever, when in reality it's just "good habits."

Inaccurate. Scrutiny takes a long time. You can glance at someone with mage Sight and if they have some weird shit going on on the surface, sure; but as far as actually scrutinizing them, it took a lot longer. It's just that people don't read the book and also think you can someone get away with staring at someone for a full minute without the person going "hey, what do you want?"

Is that 1E or 2E rules? Because I haven't read 1E in years and 2E in ever.

Well, it pains me to say it, but tomororw, The Pack releases on DTRPG. This will make it so that Werewolf: the Forsaken 2nd Edition gets a supplement before Vampire the Requiem 2nd Edition.

What the shit world.

Not looking forward to Jon and Sansa just missing one another.

@surreality

Coo. That actually kind of sounds like what I'm looking for, because at this point I still have no idea what one actually does on WoD games. You'd think I would, hanging out here, but the impression I've gotten is that it's mostly, "I'm a vampire, and also I work at the bait shop."

Vampire who runs a vape shop is my next concept.

The Red Rule, ahem, rules.

Also, chewing through more of the book, here are my thoughts:

• Decisive/WIthering Combat: I am just going to have to play test this myself to get a feel for it, honestly
• Social Influence/Intimacies - I like these a lot, including the fact that you can only push people so far
• Crafting - Uh... huh. This seems to be a whole thing, I must say. I am just starting it, but crafting XP and project slots oh my

Mage: The Awakening Second Edition will be released next Wednesday, the 4th May

I ask about on pub, maybe say I am available, then log off to play Xbox.

Shots fired.

So this dropped last week, and I am still plowing through it. Anyone else begun reading it yet? I am going to need to play the system to really understand it, but off hand, here are the biggest changes I have yet noticed:

• Martial Arts styles get stronger or weaker by your Exalt type, but are open to all
• Artifacts are a lot more unique and specialized, which adds flavor but cuts on ease
• Combat is all sorts of different, with two different damage tracks
• 2 New classes of Exalt mentioned in the core rules - Liminal, which are like Frankenstein monster patchwork exalts and seem to be a terrestrial analogue to Abyssals, and Exigent, which are random ass one-off Exalts of minor gods. Neither gets a full write up in the main book, however
• Sorcery - It is greatly expanded on and it seems counterspelling is now inate not a separate spell

@Arkandel Tolkienesque fantasy is generally not my bag. Sorry bro!

I tried to read LOTR once. I never made it through "Concerning Hobbits".

I did at least see the films.

@Three-Eyed-Crow said in I will design you a MUX:

@Coin said in I will design you a MUX:

I would actually play the fuck out of this. I have been kind of jonesing for a Lords and Ladies-type game that is also set in modern times (kind of like the ill-fated one-season series Kings). Modern conveniences and technology, but with antiquated governmental structure? Now that sounds interesting.

Oh Kings. So weird, so good, so doomed. I still pull out the DVD every now and again.

It is a good model for alt-history, in the way it said, "OK, it's basically modern times except in a made-up country that still has a king, just fucking go with it."

Sorta like "The Princess Diaries"

Now now, many people can be lame.

Like FDR.

Too soon.

Now now, many people can be lame.

Man, the past 2 rpg books I have bought have been major let downs. Not a fan of Beast, and I am very unsure of Exalted 3rd

Tolkien is lame.
