Is anyone here a fan of Arcen Games? AI War and such?

I find myself drawn towards their games despite not falling in love with any. I don't get along with their adoration of cluttered fields of sprites and six digit numbers (plus these games are hell ugly and sound poor) but I like the weird story concepts and appreciate that they never do things the obvious way.

"oh, deer" is a game that hurts my eyes... and ears... and soul

I'm also dealing with the most ridic player character I can think of in Inverse World's Sky Dancer.

She can fly at-will, naturally, but also has this move which lets her ask (without rolling the dice!) "is there a trap or ambush here?"

I will try to be a little positive and think of some things I did well tonight, though:

* The pacing was reasonably good. I felt like players were engaged most of the time; we managed to do a couple fight kinds of scenes
* I utilized prep to set up and resolve a little plot about a side character that was introduced as a joke
* I didn't describe things using numbers
* I avoided making NPC interactions feel too transcational

I need to get better at small-picture stuff, like describing individual spaces, actions, and items. My headspace is too closed in around making cool characters and schemes.

Plus pushing dangers in a narrative sense more than a mechanical sense, that's tough.

GMing... is so hard... oh my god

Happy macro march, help me get big

haircut interactions have made me much more frazzled than they should have.

I messed up and now people are sending my twitter names of single player games.

@ShugoWah@snouts.online a critic also pointed out that B1 and B2 are pretty structurally different such that Lamb in the story is not quite an equal-but-opposite to Ryan

@ShugoWah@snouts.online I do passionately hate time loop stories; it’s just a lot of “wouldn’t it be neat”
