I was having a great day playing games with my kid until suddenly she asked me "mom what does six seven mean"

Absolutely honored to be working with you! Everyone interested in the future of White Wolf, go follow Diogo, and be ready for great things to come 🙏

Diogo Nogueira - Lead Game Designer - White Wolf @diogooldskull.bsky.social · 3d

So this happened…

I am White Wolf’s new Lead Game Designer!

I will figure out how to post the whole text here, but there is a picture with the announcement and the alt text has the full thing!

Fake it until you make it as they say. And I’ve been playing the role of a TTRPG game designer for about 12 years! Now the mask has become my very nature.

I am going to play the Masquerade game with vampires, for real. After years of working as an independent game designer, like a good Anarch, I joined the Camarilla. I am now the Lead Game Designer at White Wolf, the legendary publisher that made me realize TTRPGs could be about a lot more than killing monsters. I can be one of them, and surprisingly be even more human!

The first book I ever read in English was Vampire: The Dark Ages, and now I get to work as a game designer full time for the first time with the World of Darkness? I couldn’t be happier! To live and breathe the universe of Vampire, Werewolf, Mage, Hunter, Changeling, Wraith, and all other games every day, and be able to collaborate in shaping its future is a dream come true. These games were formative in my TTRPG industry, in the Brazilian TTRPG community, and are incredibly relevant to this day. Especially these days I would say.

And with me I am bringing my game design philosophy of “playing more with less” to help make the game more accessible while honoring the more than 30 years of World of Darkness! I just want everyone to enjoy the game as much as they can, with as little effort as they can afford.

Oh, and I am still an Anarch at heart, don’t worry!

Much deserved - consider getting this game if you like minimalistic strategies (one of my fav genres!) and remember to leave a review :)

Darenn Keller @darenn.bsky.social · 12d

My game is fewer than 50 reviews away from reaching "Overwhelmingly Positive" on Steam 🤯
If you enjoyed it, leaving a review would help a ton. Thank you so much! 🙏

as a certified genAI art hater, I'd like more people to think about what contributed to its rise:

for decades, we've crafted and click-approved an online landscape where there's barely any space for hobby beginners. you compete for attention hand in hand with pros from day one

I'm biased towards Nosferatu, and I'm especially biased towards tragic Nosferatu love stories, so this quest got me good.

More Bloodlines 2 right here, right now!

Finished Talamasca today. It starts slow, but the ending is worth it. It's pretty much Hunter: The Reckoning series with a really fucked up org in the forefront, if that's your jam. Oh, and really fun vampires, Jasper is my brand of Sabbat.

Watching Heweliusz on Netflix and it's great not only as a series about a real, horrible event, it's also a good look on the depressing early 90's in Poland I grew up in. Good stuff.
