  1. Colony Ship Early Access Release Thread [GAME RELEASED, GO TO NEW THREAD]

    Similar here. I played a little when EA first came out, but not much. I couldn't stop myself from playing the demo. What a fantastic game.
  2. KickStarter Solasta: Crown of the Magister Thread - now with Palace of Ice sequel DLC

    Man, I really wish I saw this before releveling my party. This expansion is pretty great so far.
  3. Next Vampire: The Masquerade game from Draw Distance, codenamed Project Cardinal

    The first piece of concept art reminds me of the art used in Undernauts. Bloodlines 2 is cancelled? I thought it was almost released. I see it on GOG when I look in coming soon for RPGS. I thought it just kept getting delayed. Is this a certainty? Any possibility of release?
  4. KickStarter Solasta: Crown of the Magister Thread - now with Palace of Ice sequel DLC

    I wanted to import a party so finished the original campaign. I have the Unfinished Business mode installed and my party was level 15 and it wouldn't let me import the save. I found the issue - the players have to be level 12 or lower. Thankfully, the same mod lets you redo characters, so...
  5. KickStarter Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones - a Lovecraftian Computer RPG

    Okay, I get it now. It was still a decent game, and I think well worth the money. Definitely petered out some. I didn't finish it, but I don't finish most games. I got as many hours and as much fun out of it as I did with Expedition Vikings and Expedition Rome (not related at all. Just...
  6. Game News Colony Ship Early Access Update: New Location - The Heart

    RPGWatch had this slated for a release this month until recently. Glad to see it is almost done. I can't wait to play through the released game.
  7. KickStarter Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones - a Lovecraftian Computer RPG

    I'm currently playing this and really enjoying it. For some reason I thought this was like the other Cthulhu game where you're underwater, so ignored it, but this is a traditional RPG with everything one would expect from an RPG. I'm still in the first town, and so far haven't encountered any...
  8. Do you consider Disco Elysium an RPG?

    Alternatively, you can kill everyone. Agency. I said ability to do, not necessity. Do you really not see any anger or hostility in this thread at all? I guess this is something we'll have to agree to disagree on. If you showed this thread to a normal person that has never been to this site...
  9. Do you consider Disco Elysium an RPG?

    Hey, guys. Let’s slow down. Why all the anger? We’re all reasonable adults with reasonable positions. I’m not saying RPGs can’t have puzzles. My only point was, the list (which was great) just needed the first point modified. Either to specify only player physical actions require a die roll (or...
  10. Do you consider Disco Elysium an RPG?

    I don't disagree, but the puzzle aspects would have to be added as an asterisk to the first rule (All player actions abstracted through a mechanic (dice/cards/etc.)). I, personally, would prefer if my character's attributes would determine puzzle outcomes, but I know a lot of people love...
  11. Do you consider Disco Elysium an RPG?

    Green Day somehow made punk music and claimed they never listened to punk music. Maybe they played TTRPGs wrong. I don't know. If I made a TCG exactly like MTG and called it an RPG and made posts about it being an RPGs, it wouldn't change the fact it's a TCG independent of my intentions or...
  12. Do you consider Disco Elysium an RPG?

    Not a bad list. What about puzzles in games like Bard's Tale IV and Knights of the Chalice 2?
  13. Do you consider Disco Elysium an RPG?

    CYOA give choices, and are also games as well as books. I believe if Planescape Torment removed combat and combat related loot it would be CYOA. Same as Torment Tides of Numenera. You could just have all the games have three or four archetypes you select at the start, and that selection of an...
  14. why the hate on BG3

    I think it was pretty good when the Baldur's Gates got expansions. I liked the expansions for both Neverwinters too. DLC now means a lot of money for not much in return (most of the time). Expansions used to mean full games sized new content for less money. What free stuff, other than...
  15. Do you consider Disco Elysium an RPG?

    I don't want to sound hostile, and I respect your knowledge and opinion, but this sounds incorrect from what I can find of the ruleset, on multiple sights, including the official page selling it - https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/17010/Chainmail-Rules-for-Medieval-Miniatures-0e It sounds...
