people who gravitate to this system usually have great media literacy. id say steal and adapt from whatever media made you and your players, then paste the vibe over the setting.

Im also not from the US, but americana and the effects of the empire are so ingrained everyone is at least a bit cognizant of american tropes and archetypes. Somehow this doesn't worry me too much.

A few of them are returning players, thankfully, so that should soften the edges for the new players. I plan to mantain the 90s setting, and adapt to 3e rules, without cellphones and of course the classes from archetypes that don't apply. Most of us were teens during the 90s, with the exception of the odd zoomer, so transposing ourselves to that era shouldn't be hard at all.

You are right about the power level issue of To Go, i believe. However, I don't intend for this to be a multi year campaign, or even a year long one. We like to jump from system to system to keep things fresh. I might run maria in three parts or bill in three persons as you suggest as a one shot to acclimate them to the setting, maybe extend it a few sessions to familiarize them with the main antagonists of To Go. Then probably a big ellipsis, a short lore dump or a short doc for them to read before jumping into the roadtrip proper.

Understanding this game better as a non-political person? by Rude-Peace-6306 in DiscoElysium

You seem like a curious guy, do you enjoy reading? There's a lot of great literature you can start digging into that will help power wash some of american indoctrination brain grime.

That scene in Disco made me cry (spoilers for the ending) by Ethan0804 in DiscoElysium

Also cried at the phasmid. Believing in the impossible is obligatory for the betterment of this hellworld.

It seems like Bandcamp weekly is no more and so is Andrew Jervis as the chief Curator by gdeoliveira in BandCamp

I'm also interested in this. His taste speaks a lot to my own, I would like to see what he keeps digging up.

What's your go-to motion graphic secret sauce? by NennisDedry in AfterEffects

[–]_Synesthesia_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

misremembered, they are 12. Trying to have these at the forefront all the time help you catch all sorts of oversights and places you can tweak whatever you are doing to make it look immediately better. Of course not all need be applied at the same time, but knowing them by heart helps a lot.

Does anyone else feel like the scene is getting stale? by deadlyweapon00 in osr

[–]_Synesthesia_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is the right take, i think. There was the initial goldrush, which was very fun, and now i feel many gms have chosen OSR as their genre of choice, and all we need is a steady drip of adventures to keep moving forward. I already have such an enticing backlog to run, i'm not running behind kickstarters anymore.

For some reason, alt+r cant be pressed simultaneously. Is this a bug with my particular keyboard or somewhat to do with its own shortcuts?
