People say game design isn't an art, but I'd argue that only a medium based in the most tedious artistic brainrot could have a significant portion of its creators arguing that rulebooks don't affect gameplay

I feel like indies love saying "don't rely on twitter for your marketing" but don't really provide an alternative. Facebook, tumblr, cohost and the lot probably aren't showing your stuff to *more* people. Instagram maybe but that's its own game.

Gods I remember when I was so hype that this obscure little subgenre I loved was getting big and everyone knew it. Now we get 3 new cyberpunk series a week and the punk side of it is almost completely an appendage like fucking steampunk.

Do we lose something when we disregard "trad" or pop design? Can even most of us do something like that, as only corpos seem to managed to pull this off? We start our critical analysis of Era of Silence on Split/Party, a game that takes a gamble in an attempt to answer this.

A couple years ago, my friend Warren passed. For some reason I inherited his rpg books. I dont think he had any plans for them, I was just the most RPG focused on in the group. And every now and then I'll find his campaign binder, full of notes and weekly plans. Then I miss him.
