Is Deadlands (1996) a horror game? I dunno, but it certainly uses enough orange in its trade dress to get a Halloween season post.
It uses the template set out by Shadowrun and dominant for many RPGs in the ‘90s — a single core book with a bunch of interesting classes, each governed by their own unique mechanics, let loose in an unusual world, in this case an alternate version of the mid-1800s. The core mechanics make use of dice, of course (which can explode), but the game also incorporates playing cards, poker chips and a good deal of card-playing nomenclature. Hucksters, my favorite class, use the arcane secrets of Hoyle’s Book of Games to cast spells, which is accomplished at the table by putting together a good poker hand. There are undead and demons trying to drown the world in fear and the Civil War is dragging on and California fell into the sea. There weren’t a ton of Weird West games in 1996, or maybe even any, so Deadlands cornered the market for a good long while (though in typical ‘90s fashion, its handling of both Native American affairs and the Civil War could be better). It’s also one of the first RPGs, along with Castle Falkenstein, that can easily be classified as Steampunk.
It remained pretty popular until publisher Pinnacle accidentally killed it (and itself) by making a D20 version of the game. That’s OK though; that surprising turn of events led to the development of Savage Worlds and, arguably, a superior version of Deadlands using that system, Deadlands: Reloaded.
For more on Deadlands, you can read the chapter dedicated to it in my book, out yesterday! That feels so weird to say!

Can't wait for Hollywood to think it can do Dungeon Meshi better than Ryoko Kui herself 🙄

could you explain your cyber fantasy tag? how do you feel about technology and the internet in general
aaaaaahh the tag is multiple things!
but a majorly a mix of 1) an oc storyline - it deals w cybernetic technicolor!! ¿: & the act of Hunting Something, burying/obscuring yourself while simultaneously wanting to be the Headline. 2) anything that reminds me of the bleed btwn human reality & online graphics 3) expressions u can only create/do online! the internet as the Final 3rd Space 4) my gripes w the fact the future is reality :/ n i gotta navigate 5) aesthetics! tech 90/00s futurisms old graphics neat symbols
im a y2k baby Tech Knows Me i was 9 unsupervised on the family computer only knowing about #strangerdanger creating fake mes on livejournal ff.net deviantart just to connect w others that shared my interest!!
for the story my insp bases r paprika n 90s00s video girls i think i have a video girls tag (not my vgame tag). but essentially the woman being the nonhuman being the computer ! computer from man*woman from computer (*theres so many eggs in tech spaces lol)
i think my sister tag for cyber fantasy would be an open listless oh. web/degradation aesthetic that has no real structure & makes me melancholic rather than excited
also im mediating the fact i wanna read derivative shitty buzzfeed articles about technology about online fandom culture about online social movements but im the annoying uncultured 20smth. so the writer will have to be ME :(
ANYWAY i love this magazine logic(s) https://logicmag.io its woc led & all about tech!
tldr
the internet: fun sometimes. should be much better
modern technology: DO IT. PuLL IT. PULL THE TRIGGER.
#petrolstationprincess#*#the something in question in my stories is usually some type of gender/response/acknowledgement Lmao#jcole voice i havent read lose the time war but i think a lot#not sorry to be a hippie i WILL gripe at unnecessary technological advancements :(((( whered u get them semiconductors#how many babies in the drc died pulling coltan for those cheap ass walmart tvs nobody buys :(#u dont need a new game system every two years liberia has been ebbing under the water ever since firestone.#N why did africas redestabilization correlate w the 80-90s boom in home entertainment systems!!!#no ethical consumption under capitalism however it goes mfs when i say actually yeah pls lets never buy new tech again!!!#at the end of the day its like i made a cryptpad just to write shit i post on here on twitter on substack on my iphone notepad 😭#the only way to stop me writing is my death tho so thats what i love connection!! n the internet is the pinnacle-symbol of that to me#while also being the place i learned the most abt subjugation even beyond the racism sexism ablesim etc i recieve in my personal life#j cole voice again i dont read lacan but i think alot#symbol-signature i get mad when i see ridiculous discourse on the Ridiculous Discourse website. girl who is not coy: I Am COYYYYy I Am CO#its just so weird! being young enough to remember n be exactly when sayhername was created and old enough to already see it commandeered.#my politic at the end of the day revolves around how can i aid the Youth bc they are the Future#but i dislike the current Future that is peddled constantly!! to me & Them!!!#n e way the oc in my story is a 20X0s vixen. still debating on if she is actually Real or Not Real#hope this made sense. ik it didnt but i hope it did 🤓😭

@respctlss ( velvette ) / continued.
Tumblr media
"Six hours of production time for a better shoot, Velvette, let's not overlook that! We made more fucking money off that line than the four before it combined." Vox tries not to get openly agitated, but only succeeds in coming off slightly less strained than he actually feels.
A better person would probably admit to their own wrongdoings, but Vox is in Hell for a whole host of reasons. That he respects Velvette as a businesswoman and friend doesn't make her arguments any less invalid, nor does it make Vox any more inclined to listen to her when she's talking blatant shit about him.
It's fucking lucky we manage to put up a united front in public with the kind of shit the two of them put me through.
Tumblr media
"The animator's a low blow, first of all, and we both know it wouldn't have done much in the grand scheme of things if that contract had been slightly tilted in his favor." Vox had been frayed at the time, too, coming fresh off the replacement of his core processor. His regulation hadn't been working and the change caused him the same full-body itch they always do until he gets used to it. He was agitated; it was just a moment of weakness. "And if you want to play that game, let's revisit all the times I've stopped you from firing models mid-shoot and delaying ads by potential weeks because you can't even fucking think two seconds into the future."
The pixels that make up the corners of his eyes glitch visibly.

twice now, I've dropped a track of original music based around speech samples from the game "William Shatner's TekWar" on December 31
check out last year's
youtube
reading the lyrics is pretty wild because they're so uneven, here they are
I've got half of city hall clamoring to send you back to cryo, and I'm half-tempted to do it
Send you back to cryo
Half-tempted to do it
Send you back to cryo
Half-tempted to do it
Do I need to remind you your body temperature is riding on this?
Do you wanna end up back in the ice box?
Do you expect me to justify your freedom?
If this weren't important you'd still be in cryo sleep
If the need weren't so great, I'd have you on the next flight back
I've got half of city hall clamoring to
Send you back to cryo
Half-tempted to do it
Send you back to cryo
Half-tempted to do it
Do I need to remind you your body temperature is riding on this?
This isn't some kind of game, people are dying out there
I'm not happy with your methods, but at least you got results
You even managed to bring him in
Without getting anyone killed
Keep this up
And I may be able to keep you out of the freezer
With Janus out of the picture
I can justify my decision to keep you thawed out
And as icing on the cake
Nobody was hurt
But don't plan on any vacations yet
We still haven't solved this case
Janus is out of commission
And we have a better idea of what's going on
I've got half of city hall clamoring to
Send you back to cryo
And I may be able to keep you out of the freezer
Send you back to cryo
Keep you out of the freezer
This isn't some kind of game, people are dying out there
Do I need to remind you your body temperature is riding on this?

I used to run a Louisiana campaign 🌊💦🚣‍♀️ It ended with an adaptation I wrote of The Beyond which left the characters stranded on the "other side," apparently forever, as we never got to continue the campaign!

I understand the impulse to clown on Essek for walking around in Vasselheim with his recognizable voice with the Bright Queen's spearhead commander, and of course we could turn to the metatextual elements (the necessity of signposting the world for players on the part of the GM, the ease of using a familiar ally to introduce a relevant NPC and new point of contact) to dismiss this if we wanted, but I think it's more interesting—and funnier, as you'll see—to imagine this as simply an extension of the laws and logic that dictate the Mighty Nein as a narrative entity.
Fundamentally, the Mighty Nein within their campaign pursue personal and collective agency, often at the expense or in denial of political power. Where they do interact with more political forms of power, they evade its grasp upon them, most notably in their interactions with the war, but also while they engage with the Cerberus Assembly, the Cobalt Soul, and even the Revelry. The way they pursue agency, on the other hand, has far more to do with their own support of one another and their own individual power, especially where there is magic involved, and manifests in having the freedom to move and act as they wish in the world.
The culmination of this, as we know, is the mechanical ability in their final battle against Lucien and the Somnovem to manipulate the terrain of the battle map to their advantage with only imagination. At the same time, Jester and Caduceus can both call in free favors from their gods, one of whom is unlimited by the Divine Gate and in fact is far more governed by fey logic. Fjord has made three different divine pacts and is virtually unrestricted by any of them. Caleb's hallmark is an almost infinitely malleable home that almost literally seems to operate as a hammerspace, with a pinnacle dedicated to the potentiality of the universe, the application of which is one of his signature spells—against all odds successful in his initial goal, no longer fueled by guilt and grief, of bending reality to his will. It's narratively and thematically cogent that this be the calling card of the party as a whole.
The Mighty Nein are, in effect, dictated by Looney Tunes logic, and nothing else. They have been so successful in their pursuit of their own freedom that they no longer abide by the cosmic laws of Exandria, let alone the laws of physics or sense. So yes, from an external point of view, it does look exceedingly foolish for Essek to be traipsing around in Vasselheim under the Bright Queen's nose, but it's far more entertaining to argue that being a member of the Mighty Nein in fact simply confers the capability of ignoring the laws of reality without consequence when it's narratively convenient, characteristically interesting—or just really fucking funny.
