Please kickstart the hideous shambling tabletop RPG gestalt that exists in the mind of every ambitious GM who has ever played D&D and Dark Heresy.

To get an accurate idea of the color of the wine, they tilt the glass away from themselves so they can see a broader gradient of the wine's color, and the glass is in the way for that. I'm pretty skeptical that the glass has a significant impact on that, but they didn't completely make up this idea. Just looking straight down at the wine would definitely not be an adequate substitute though.

There's literally no way they can salvage their dignity in this scenario. The outcome will be horribly embarrassing regardless of whether the project succeeds or fails.

All I'm seeing is this

quote:

So, I just picked up this. Quest Squires is a game from Ohio-based gamer Theodore Quigley, hardcore gamer and three-time GenCon attendee who stole Gygax's shoelaces once. It's a labour of love, the result of nineteen years of research and countless games in multiple systems including Dungeons & Dragons, Advanced Dungeons & Dragons, Dungeons & Dragons Basic Set, Dungeons & Dragons Expert Set, Dungeons & Dragons Companion Set, Dungeons & Dragons Master Rules and Dungeons & Dragons Immortals Rules (the rare 1987 misprint where they accidentally included Mentzer's recipe for making LSD in your basement.)


And it has a ton of innovations! For example...

• "Activity Points", which you can spend to occasionally take an extra turn in combat or do other cool things
• No character class system - players pick from a series of "Improvements" that "unlock" as they "level up"
• Racial level limits
• Complex "improvisation" mechanics
• Verisimilitudinous optional rules for female rogues, based on Theodore's personal experiences with his ex-wife
• 24 types of shield
• Seven different kinds of halfling

Colin Bakers character looks so much like Prince Harry I have to believe they just traced a picture of him.

Edit: Also Terry Malloy says we have to watch the movie to find out who he's voicing, but it says he's playing CATS in the first picture on the page.

As far as "Where Are They Now?" scenarios go, this falls below porn acting, rehab, and doing commercials for credit card companies. I think it's a tossup between this and dead.

I think that the very concept of an AYB Kickstarter being created in 2013 is a wonderful, wonderful thing. I'm sure that whatever they produce will be terrible, but the mere fact that it exists makes the world more strangely magical.

edit: Also, I'm wondering if you understand that the vast majority of posters with OUYA gametags do not think that the OUYA is good.

Yeah, I think that most people liked a couple more than others, but I was surprised to find that all four were done by a single person. I believe that most people thought they were four development teams or something and that was their concepts.
