So I got my $15 copy of Eoris Essence. And this thing is bugfuck insane. Beautiful, but also . Super happy with the purchase, though I feel bad for the author since this is such a labor of love.

Covok posted:Like, does it come off as a character or his actual thoughts? On p. 11 there's a "Roleplaying in Eoris" section. quote:Eoris was not merely created as a role-playing game, or as a setting for a fantastical land, or as literature, or even as art. It was conceived as another way to understand the universe we live in.This conception, although not completely bound by rationality and experimentation, seems real to its creator. The purpose of this conception is to awaken our inner universe and to open peoples' hearts to the beauty of their own ideals and concepts of reality. Some people base their ideas on science, others on religion, and others on emotions, yet all of these paths are equally valuable. All ideas and perspectives should be valued for diversity is a part of the universe's true reality; the eradication of an idea is, after all, the extinction of a point of view. Eoris Essence is one of the many theories of our existence; it is a vision of essence shared by its creator and expressed through you as you experience it. Evil Mastermind posted:Aaaand bought. I am not entirely sure it's playable, but it's at least more comprehensible than Immortal: The Invisible War, and I paid more for that back in the early 90's

Covok posted:Cool. I really like that. Pick up and play chargen is best chargen in my book. Wanted to be sure because I remember people being mad that full chargen wasn't in the book or something like that. I wish my package was already here. Playing again tomorrow.

Evil Mastermind posted:My copy of Eoris just arrived. Yeah it's more than a bit overwhelming. The 3-point font in some of the poems is crazy.

I never read that part before, but I'd say it's a pretty important thing to put in a modern-day, non-action-oriented RPG where you're trying to capture a specific tone. Violence IRL is a pretty big deal, psychologically, and if that's what you're aiming for, handling it with the appropriate gravity sounds like a good move. The last remark was maybe unnecessary, but I really don't understand all the angst.
