There's something to be said about games that deal with really challenging subject matter and what the players can get out of it but uh :stare: I'm not sure this nails it

Edit: and it's a shame, I think the premise is interesting at least from a "you're not fighting elfs in this one" way!

The Shining would make an incredible a book scenario to run in Bluebeard's Bride holy poo poo.
Instead of the room The bride can't enter without confronting the truth she is not ready for, it's the Manuscript Bluebeard is working on. I mean heck, that movie is full of really dark sexual undertones and questions about the physical abuse Jack did to his family.

I'm not sure if I'm missing something but I don't get what the hook for this game is supposed to be

That is a really consequence free module. The first adventure reminds me of how in attack of the clones you have emperor palpatine make count dooku hire django fett who hires a lizard lady who uses a robot who drops centipedes top try and kill darth vader's princess girlfriend. What's the point of any of that. Are the fights cool? Are the sights cool? If the answer is no, don't publish the module.

They could at least imply that the ultra devil and mega angel come from the same place as the knife wife of planescape but this seems real whack
