The best part is this isnt at all surprising coming from Dead Reckoning, who does this about every single topic and interprets things that happen in the real world the same exact way. Its not just him being bad at comics!

What does he do when it turns out he's wrong about everything all the time? Ignore it?

Cio has a personality, but isn't a person in the sense of being human, because her fundamental drives and needs are alien. This is why people are so fascinated with psychopaths: beings whose appearance and affect mirrors our own, but who underneath do not share our feelings and humanity.

Lol this whole time I thought you were saying she wasn't a person based on the actually relatively credible argument in universe that devils are all Philosophical Zombies, not this "man how alien is it to need to Eat in order to Live?" bullshit.

I really hope Allison ends up dragging Cio or White Chain back to her Earth, and introducing them to her roommates.

I want to see their reaction to the bonkers poo poo that Allison has been dealing with on her "Grand Canyon" trip.

"I need my pictures of the canyon yo!"
"Can we PLEASE talk about the sword?"

Based on the hover-text: Cio "died", as predicted, and was "revived"? (i.e., Cio was killed by Yabagail the same way Obi wan claims Anakin was killed by Vader)

Pretty sure the old status quo didnt involve tenderly placing accessories in each others faces while expressing trust and fondness.

Except in Cios book, of course.

Is there another thread for discussion of the Broken Worlds K6BD RPG or is this the place for that? I scanned through a beta test copy and it looked pretty cool, but pretty different for an Apocalypse World hack. Has anyone tried playing or running it?

You could try the Traditional Games subforum, there's a dedicated *World thread there.

e; Here's the link.

There was an update done to it, I wrote a bunch of characters in hopes if running a one off while vacationing in PR but that didn't pan out.

Still I liked the fact that the shamanic Ai specialist pilot dude is not far from canon.
