#please play world of darkness

[ladyofwasps]

I’m always wanting to help broaden people’s horizons in the tabletop sphere but I totally empathize with anyone worried about crunch heavy systems, that was a major fear of mine when I started getting into the hobby. Here are some super simple, easy to introduce games for your table!

Sentinel Comics The Roleplaying Game

Do you like superheroes? This game is perfect for superheroes! Although it’s also ideal for emulating anime, pulp stories, and I’ve had some success using it to run a game where everyone is a monster. It’s going to use all your dice except the d20, character creation is super fun and loaded with options but if you struggle with decision anexity don’t worry there’s a guide to rolling up a random character. In all my time with the system I’ve never rolled up a random who want super interesting and had me itching to play them. The game uses the GYRO system of its own invention, this gives you three health zones (Green, Yellow and Red) that grant you more and more options as scenes go on. This really recreates cinematic moments where the hero is down to their last breath and clutches the win a massive gamble of a move. You can find this game on the Greater Then Games website along with the Sentinel Comics Card Game which is also amazing.

Hunter: The Reckoning (Fifth Edition)

Don’t know anything about World of Darkness? Don’t worry, neither do the hunters! This is a fantastic and simple system with a focus on the narrstive that will break your group away from D&D’s more war game-esque system. If you’ve wanted to run a game based on Buffy or Supernatural, both of those are pretty much Hunter’s core DNA. Players are mortals who discover their world is filled with monsters like vampires, werewolves, ghosts, and demons and set out to reclaim the night from mankind’s ancient enemies. If you enjoy this game then you’ll probably also enjoy the other two World of Darkness 5th edition games out right now, use this to springboard into Vampire and Werewolf!

Blades in The Dark

A system using a modified version of Powered By The Apocalypse, you mastermind heists through flashbacks and on-the-job thinking. If you like Ocean’s Eleven or just want to run a heist game heavy on the critical planning part but light on actually wargaming out the plan, this is perfect for you. Default setting is a fantasy steam punk world you can really play around a lot with, a great pallet cleanser from sword and sorcery games.

Imagine a person who only consumes Batman-related media. That is, they only watch movies and TV shows that have Batman in them, only read books that are novelisations of Batman media, only play licensed Batman video games, and so forth. This is not so absurd an idea; Batman-related media is sufficiently popular, varied and widespread that restricting one's media consumption in this way is completely feasible. However, I trust we can agree that if you actually do this, you will be left with very strange ideas about what popular media looks like.

The next step in this analogy is undestanding that if the only tabletop RPG you're acquainted with is Dungeons & Dragons, you have the same grasp of the tabletop roleplaying hobby as our hypothetical Batman Guy has of popular media.

Hii

I've been listening to All This Time by Only The Poets for a few weeks and I just. can't shake the Kit vibes. Because you're the KitTy expert 😌:

Do you see the vision? Am I just so obsessed that I see them everywhere?

By the way, I looovee your Kit content, it makes waiting two years for twp more bearable : )

PS: here's the link to the song

AYO HOLD UP THIS SONG FUCKING SLAPS!!! ik ‘one more night’ by only the poets and i love it, but i didn’t listen to more of their stuff but ig i gotta start now??!?! this song is so cool and the lyrics??! fire.

avoidin’ the mirror, cause i can’t face that i gave you up - no bc that’s literally kit and ty when they’re apart this is messing up my heart 💔

i’ve run out of reasons to justify leavin’ - stop bc this is literally kit, like i bet he stays up at night and hates himself for leaving ty all the time and he questions whether he did the right thing :(

don’t you know that lately i’ve been dreamin’ of you and i - EXCUSE ME WHILE I CRY????? IK THEY DREAM ABOUT EACH OTHER AND FANTASIZE ABOUT BEING TOGETHER IM SOBBING

her arms round my body don’t do nothin’ for me - it’s giving kit and hazel noooo :(

i wanna call you, tell you, even after all this time - three years separated kitty vibes????? i wanna cry so badly, don’t mind me. it’s okay. i’m fine. totally.

thank u so much for introducing me to this song and calling me a kitty expert (ur so sweet i’m blushing) and i’m really glad you’re enjoying my kit posts🫶🏻

dumbass deltarune oc/idea

Since there might be a trend of speech quirks throughout the bosses

Anjle's might be for a word at the end of it's sentence to be spelled backwards

Or

It's might be to refer to people in pronoun form as it and instead of saying gendered names like girl or boy.. It'll just use thing instead leading into it not believing in gender

Anyways, that's all for now.

Thinking about them (My Dark Urge ending up so involved in the plot and having so much surprising content because of that awesome origin that I kinda can't go back to a regular Tav playhrough anymore) 🥰🥰

[paradife-loft]

Knight Artorias continues to be one of my absolute favorite boss fights

"victim of the Abyss" is the sexiest description one can read on a soul in this entire game by far

decided midway through fighting him that I wanted to go for a no-healing kill, mostly to prolong the experience and see if I could, and: success!! I can and did!
