The child was eating breakfast this morning, seated at the kitchen table, when I heard her calmly repeating all 14 principles of Thinking Adventures.

You gotta explain designer intent to a crying child now

That’s okay, system matters isn’t real and can’t hurt us here

Just found the like three paragraphs of a Caves of Qud x Troika zine I started writing in 2019 and never picked back up. Someone should really do Caves of Qud x Troika.

Love the grimdark perfectly maintained golf course grass look of the 90s

If you were to play your ttrpg with a little kid, and said “what kind of character do you want to be?” And they said “I want to be Batman!” How easy would it be to stat up Batman in your system before the kid loses interest?

Just some new classes and equipment I reckon

Shigeru Miyamoto was very impressed by Banjo-Kazooie during its development, even expressing that it surpasses Super Mario 64 in some ways: "If Super Mario 64 is a makunouchi bento, then Banjo-Kazooie is a deluxe makunouchi bento."

Mario & Luigi: Dream Team contains various unused test rooms in its files. One of these is the "two dead Luigis" test room, which is identical to the Mushrise Park entrance from the finished game, except there are two Luigis lying on the ground. The Luigis are unresponsive.

I could write 10,000 words about Caves of Qud (and maybe one day I will) but I want to point out one thing about the water ritual, "your thirst is mine, my water is yours." I love that it STARTS with the empathy of acknowledging the other's need before moving on to the gift of one's own water.
