It's pretty apparent Lotfp just uses over the top gore and other edgy material because it's the only thing that separates it from other bland and derivative OSR games. Not even in a way that's clever or pays homage to anything, just to be shocking and disgusting. Even going to their website is revolting and it doesn't help that a good deal of the pictures I've seen or remember are of violence against women. EDIT: Qelong by Ken Hite is cool but it's Ken Hite.

Mimir posted:What's wrong with Ken Hite? Suppressed Transmission is excellent background material stuff - I don't tend to care for his rules writing but his historybashing is gold. Nothing, he's a great writer and nice guy. I meant that as it's great because it's Ken Hite and everything he does is incredibly competent* to great. *The Decipher Star Trek system was bad. EDIT: unseenlibrarian posted:I think what they were saying was more "Qelong by Ken Hite is cool, but it's Ken Hite, so of course it is." Exactly.

Did anyone back the new edition of Mutant Chronicles? I saw that the book has been online for a while but no one has really commented on it.

Len posted:What would be the best system for running a horror themed King of the Hill game? I had a vision yesterday of Hank Hill and pals squaring off against Lovecraftian horrors and I haven't been able to shake it. Probably Trails of Cthulhu or Hillfolk because it would be mostly story driven and episodic. EDIT: I think L5R is in good hands because he SW RPGs are pretty solid. I think the current games are some of the best iterations of Star Wars yet and they've done an excellent job of fleshing out the universe without just stating out the Expanded Universe. Their handling of 40K has been pretty good as well. RocknRollaAyatollah fucked around with this message at 03:23 on Sep 15, 2015 |

Realms of Cthulhu is another good choice. There's practically a Cthulhu game for every system so take your pick.

Witchers are pretty much Gary Stu dick bags so it's a shades of gray dick bag story as opposed to a broader, open ended story. The writer of the Witcher is the Polish love child of George R.R. Martin and R.A. Salvatore.

paradoxGentleman posted:I agree that Salvatore's characters really are kind of Gary Stu-ish, but I don't think Martin's are. Unless you meant to say that his characters are dick bags, which is true for at least half of them. George R.R. Martin was in reference to the aspect of the Witcher where every female character is half naked, more HBO than the books, and Geralt getting around.
