Nostos is a super cool TTRPG & ought to be funded by now! If you like the weird fiction moon-hopping of Realis, Nostos is like a classical lit island-hopping cousin. Check out the blurb I wrote based on the game's ARC, and pledge the campaign while you still can! www.kickstarter.com/projects/hon...

EP2 of our Realis One Shot is live! Join @superdillin.bsky.social, @austinwalker.bsky.social, @vidityavoleti.bsky.social, & @moreblueberries.bsky.social as they encounter The Immaculate Flotilla—a religious order of pirates who do, in fact, believe the floor is lava (drawn here by @chriskindred.com)
In between interminable arcs about fish princes and frog generals, multiple mediocre re-runs on The Seven Samurai, and a really trying stealth pilot for a show for even younger kids.

It was at its height during Gamergate, though he's still Like That. And unless you are following the dude on Twitter you might not have seen that shit
There's somethign about the lighting and background here that makes it look like this is your version of character headshot from The Wire's old DVD and promo material collection
That is 100% their inspo!
Nah, I cannot imagine giving money to Chmielarz when there is so much other stuff to play

After a length of development that - if I truly, deeply thought about it, I would instantly go insane as if I'd opened some Lovecraftian skin-bound tome - our narrative city-builder Generation Exile has launched out of Early Access into full 1.0 today!

making myself giggle
Was thrilled to have @austinwalker.bsky.social and @possibleworlds.bsky.social on to talk about bringing Realis over the finish line, the complicated work of teaching others to GM, and how those 55 classes are all bridges into, and out towards, countless Moons.
Thanks so much to @chasecarter.bsky.social & @newmadras.bsky.social for having us on the Rascal Radio Hour to talk indepth about Realis! Listen in for insights on mechanical choices, design, publishing, & crowdfunding philosophies, and @austinwalker.bsky.social & my hopes for the future of the game.
Thanks to @rascal.news for bringing me and @possibleworlds.bsky.social to the podcast to talk about Realis, bringing a game from conception through production, and simply making stuff for the sicko in your heart.
Great to know! Thanks
hey, thanks!
while the site is stabilizing I think everyone should go listen to this episode of side story if you're interested in having a discussion about the type of game Marathon is/should be.

and that's when it's working!
I genuinely think I’d rather the site be entirely down than this. This is the stop-and-go traffic equivalent of using a website.
Before I was there, Giant Bomb did a three part Pathfinder series in 2013. Unfortunately, it's a premium video series (giantbomb.com/videos/giant...)
Then once I was there (and after I'd left) we did stuff on the Giant Beastcast episodes 31 (2015), 84 (2016), 136 (2017), and 138 (start of 2018).
One more ping for this? Why not. I wrote about DLSS 5 for RPS, what it means for us to live in a world without graphics rendering and how easy it might be for us to lose control of the games industry: www.rockpapershotgun.com/with-dlss-5-...
NYC Friends, and educators everywhere: NYC Public Schools has released their Guidance on Artificial Intelligence. They’re taking comments until June.
Take a look, and get comments in if you have them. You can do so at in-person meetings, but there is also a survey linked at the top of the page.
they really fucking did it!
