  1. RE: dice.camp/@geeknative/11723719

    So, now, whenever you encounter the mythos you end up with insight into the universe instead of insanity? You end up with Buddhist satori rather than damage to your psyche?

    I'm sorry. That's f**ing stupid and it certainly isn't Lovecraft. A Lovecraft character has his sanity blasted beyond recovery when he encounters the mythos. It sure as hell doesn't turn him into The Buddha of Innsmouth.

    I had every intention of buying #TrailofCthulhu 2e. Now I’m not so sure. #ttrpgs #ttrpg

  2. It's not going to happen, but I would _love_ for the new edition of #DarkSun to present multiple, conflicting explanations for details of the cataclysm that formed it.

    I saw this as a WoD fan who adores detailed lore, but both #TrailOfCthulhu and #VampireTheRequiem changed my relationship with "deep lore" to something more fluid where "How does this impact the table?" is the most important question. Normalize changing the lore from table to table and game to game, based on what works best.

  3. There’s no defeating The Great Old Ones. Their plans are vast, spread over eons. Humans have no scope to comprehend their ends or their means. And so their efforts are just ineffectual chaos indiscriminately aimed into the void.

    Cthulhu GMs seem to forget this.

  6. I can't emphasize enough how much I love the #TrailOfCthulhu core book presenting multiple different, conflicting, & plausaible "truths" about what or who the familiar Old Gods are just to give some actual mystery to them.

    So many games (and so much media in general) like to talk about how no one knows the truth & everyone is only working with half the puzzle at best, but only ever present one objective truth.

    The #WorldOfDarkness (& everything it influenced) are particularly prone to that.

  7. #BundleOfHolding launched a big #TrailOfCthulhu deal with the core book and a whole slew of advetnures.

    This is my second favorite iteration of the classic Cthulhu investigation kind of RPG, behind #DeltaGreen, and Trail really popularized the "you don't roll just to find clues, you get those by showing up - you roll to get bonus information" approach to mysteries and the core book has great advice on how to adapt/twist mythos "truths" to keep things fresh.

  8. In Trail of Cthulhu, survival is not the only objective. Tactical Goals looks at what characters are trying to achieve inside each scene, position, leverage, knowledge, escape. Clear goals make horror sharper and choices matter more.
