Absolutely, could not have said it better myself.

Not to mention the gigantic looming threats that we face - pandemics, climate change, species collapse. All of it just feels so perfectly lovecraftian and overwhelming.

Oh it's a whole method. I use oracles, i roll on tables, i automatically generate NPC's.

The actual easy part is combat because "usually" there's a best choice for the enemy to take in any situation that makes sense for them.

One thing i know for sure, there ain't no predicting the future with something like this. We'll not know where we'll end up until we are there.

I can honestly say i've been playing it for so long i don't even remember what all i've played it on. I've even had it on phones and such.

The rich modding and active fan community really help with longevity, too, and i wish more games would take a cue from that.

I'm all for it, and i think we're actually entering a sort of "lovecraft age" where unimaginable things impact our lives every day in large and small, visible and invisible ways.

If the 1950's were afraid of communists, and the 1980's were afraid of consumer culture taking over the world, then the 2020's and 2030's will surely be concerned with "So an algorithm no one understands says i can't own a house"

I do almost entirely solo, but my favorite part is the unexpected.

If you play a computer game, you know what's going to happen or what's within the boundaries of the simulation it's running. Tabletop isn't like that. It can spiral into anything and end up anywhere. That's very refreshing and mentally engaging.

I knew something that goofy had to be documented somewhere.

Looks awesome! Must have taken forever to the details on the horus sculpt's base.

I hit the sub a few hours ago to see what's going on there, and man it is just pure noise, no signal.

I feel like the limits were chosen to force twitter addicts to upgrade to blue.

There was a case back in '13 of a dude named Greg Monroe who fell into a well in Mojave and died. I learned about his case from the Missing Enigma's "How Do People Vanish Without A Trace? A Few Case Studies" video (which is quite good i think as a video).

This article from the time period discusses it a little: https://www.pressenterprise.com/2013/11/14/mojave-desert-searchers-find-body-believed-to-be-missing-hunter/

The tl;dr though is that the dude just walked into a well that was hidden in the brush and disappeared. They found him by pure luck. It'd be even easier to do so in the dark and if you were not really paying attention to your surroundings as you walked.

Yeah it's a real win-win. It's costing the site interactions, and clearing some of the spam out of AMA
