Can you write RPGs if you don't like roleplaying?
I feel uncomfortable when role-playing, but as a writer and game designer, the space seems intriguing..

In other news; does anyone share my headcannon of the Alien and Avatar series belonging to the same universe, by connection through Blade runner?
I believe in Na'vi Xenomorphs, soon.

Yesterday I had the displeasure of realizing that there is such a thing as an 'arrogant' rulebook.
In theory, all rules were contained in it, but it made minimal effort to explain them.
The result was a game played completely wrong, even though, in the end, it somehow felt like my own fault.

This is sad beyond words. The total loss of scope and meaning... what is left, when we allow this?

And one could add '... for as long as possible, draining what pools of cash they can, before the vapor becomes too much for anyone to ignore'.
"I think we should shed the idea that AI is a technological artifact with political features and recognize it as a political artifact through and through. AI is an ideological project to shift authority and autonomy away from individuals, towards centralized structures of power."
Exactly.
Exactly.

Had my first ever block today.. feels weird 🤷 I'm like 99% sure I was of the same opinion as the blocker, but since the response was just 'block', that will remain unknown.

Any good children movies that are thoroughly not-scary?
Totoro, Ponyo and Ratatouille was too much. Kiki's delivery is okay (other than the magpies).

Sooo, anyone know any publishers who like 2 player games, and aren't scared away by political and conflict themes? (Not full con-sim/wargame).

I really like the term 'complexity budget' as it perfectly sums up what you need to consider when new and shiny mechanism ideas pop up.
Just a terrible shame that I'm fundamentally bad at economics...

Title ideas wanted! Any good suggestions for a 2 player civilisation card game? 45 min-ish, multi-use cards and somewhat classical civilisation so far (Rome, Egypt, Persia and Abbasid caliphate). No suggestions are too bad!
