I am ready to see it all pulled into Oblivion, only little islands floating in a sea of shadows remaining.

And at the very end Lowtax will be soulforged into an ashtray.

If we're getting a seventh maelstrom, 2020 is as good a place as any.

Has anyone ever put together a complete WOD Continuity reading order? I've got a lot of time to kill at work and a self-loathing streak. Reading the whole canon seems like a decent way to kill either time or my consciousness.

DantetheK9 posted:Oh, good. There'll be someone waiting there for me when I achieve perfect madness then. Not necessarily. Touching the realm of platonic truths by completing a Great Work will probably annihilate you, and even if it doesn't might write you out of phenomenological reality, so there's a good chance if Loomer does IRL Ascend we may never know about it because he retroactively never would have been. I'd give it 40-60 odds on his Ascension. But hey, if he does, at least you'll get to compile years of spreadsheets and population ratios yourself!

If it helps, I'm not even sure where you'd start. Just keeping it to Vampire would even be difficult. Like... all the clanbooks generally talk about their Antediluvian and then on up to modern nights. A lot of those are fun (the Revised editions) so... maybe do those thirteen books and then if they yammer about something we could point you in another direction?

Better to go for the famously bad or good books. Going in order will start you off with twenty fairly boring books.

Yeah, IIRC Skemp is one of the cool ones. I also remember him being a cool poster on rpg.net.

I have friends who still hate Achilli for culling the number of dumb bloodlines. It's hilarious.

I want good tabletops to be successful, and The World of Darkness being helmed by Achilli has the potential to be that. Particularly because Achilli was the guy who actually shepherded Vampire for the past 20 years.

I know you only hitched your wagon to V5 when things were already good so let me give you a rundown. When they announced V5, Martin went on at length about how the previous people who were in charge of vampire had squandered the brand and were terrible. And that somehow Martin was the true inheritor of Mark's "vision". Despite the fact that Mark was barely in charge of Vampire and Justin Achilli was the line runner from the middle of 2nd edition through revised, the 20th Anniversary, and yes, Requiem. He was the one who wrote the foreword in New York By Night saying that trying to leverage the book to capitalize on 9/11 would be gross and crass. So putting Justin Achilli of all people in charge of Martin's vanity project is the first sign in a very long white that Paradox actually wants to improve this game and aren't just hastily trying to cover their rear end while thinking about Optics.

MonsieurChoc posted:Yeah, IIRC Skemp is one of the cool ones. Ethan did for Werewolf what Justin did for Vampire. Both lines of course still had their problematic elements during both guys' tenure on the lines, but also both worked hard to scale them back.

It says a little bit that it could be considered a remarkably saavy business decision to hire the person responsible for making oWoD Vampire when it was successful to try and make oWoD Vampire successful.
