Title kinda says it all.

I have Foundry so that’s sweet. Oh yeah, and don’t be afraid to recommend me some obscure ones as well as popular ones.

Let’s see… I like Star Wars, Appalachia, labor movement, Star Trek, the Pathfindner games by Owlcat, Warhammer 40k (syke! but I may get into it due to its increased popularity recently), Arthurian legends, Lord Dunsany, horror, foreign shit (like, foreign novels, foreign games, foreign everything), Chinese stuff, Chinese web novels, etc.

What else, what else… Pluto and other space shti? Eh, idk. Africa, non-European fantasy, noir, neurodiversity/autism, desert fantasy, weird fiction, Gothic literature, Nintendo, dwarves, Ottoman empire, pirates, tropical settings, OMORI, ASOIAF book series, Assassin’s Creed (ig? back then, but i don’t know about now as I haven’t played the recent ones), history in general, sociology, Elden Ring, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, anything like the upcoming Dolmenwood TTRPG, and I guess anything like the Enclave TTRPG.

No to: more Viking shit (Viking shit seems to everywhere and I hate it), Orientalist two-dimensional shenanigans, “you can be the bad guys in this setting… even though they’re technically the good guys now but with a dark aesthetic to them!,” Numenera (I hated the video game), Game of Thrones TV show, zombies, Bethesda Game Studios, and, err, yeah, I’ll leave it at that.

So yeah, now that you know what my interests are, how about I dox myself, yeah?

Okay, look down to see what I look like:

    I’ve always wanted to try out Lancer, but never found a group to play with. I wouldn’t mind joining one now if anyone knows good places to look.

      I play with a group in-person (when we can all get around to it), but the Lancer Discord is probably your best bet at finding groups online. I haven’t tried asking myself so I can’t say how easily you can get something set-up, but it’s a great place to ask anything Lancer related. Plus, they’re mostly leftists there (probably Western-brained ones but I’ll take what I can get).

      Otherwise, this project called Lancer Tactics just finished its Kickstarter campaign. It’s a strategy video game intending to preserve the rules from the tabletop game. You can play the demo now! It’s pretty fun (if a little buggy). Hopefully they do a solid job on the full release.

        I didn’t even know there was an official discord. I’ll definitely check it out.

        Is it multiplayer? In any case, it sounds awesome and I’ll check it out. Thank you for the advice!
