This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

I've Chosen a Title for my Next RPG Project!

Quote from: Marleycat;948793Just going with Pundit's description of his game. Any actual issue CK? He chose the title and time period so what is your complaint again exactly? Especially since my earlier post was flat erased? It's his site so I'm okay if he's not down about real world attitudes about magic and religion and what they actually think about each other. Yes Johanna loves Mage the Awakening but knows RPG Games aren't real life. Magic isn't real but religion is. But magic among serious practitioners can be an actual religion also.

I think it's offbase but that's my opinion.

All I asked was "Where was the poll?" because that Poll is not on this site.  At some point, you really must actually read the words posted and not just listen to what the voices in your head are telling you people are saying.  It makes you seem a little more like a sane person and less like a crackhead playing forum pinata. :D

Even the the "cutting edge" storygamers for all their talk of narrative, plot, and drama are fucking obsessed with the god damned rules they use. - Estar

Yes, Sean Connery\'s thumb does indeed do megadamage. - Spinachcat

Isuldur is a badass because he stopped Sauron with a broken sword, but Iluvatar is the badass because he stopped Sauron with a hobbit. -Malleus Arianorum

"Tangency Edition" D&D would have no classes or races, but 17 genders to choose from. -TristramEvans

He didn't crosspost on his own gaming forum?  That was kind of silly.

This project sounds great!

Are you planning to make the rules open content?

This sounds like a potentially great book I would buy & use, and I think the title and graphic are excellent!

Think again we're talking about a setting in a semi-historical realistic Middle Ages Europe that believes in ONE god. I figure this means real world religions are in play. For serious practitioners of magic it de facto becomes their religion. And it's known that many worldwide accepted major religions have secret variants that practice that religion's accepted forms of magic but never are publicly admitted to.  ONE god or not given his religion does the same. I'm just interested in Pundit's take on what Middle Age types practiced as what was considered magic.

Quote from: mAcular Chaotic;948502I'm already sold just from the description in the OP.

Are there any more details?

I suppose my first question is what makes it different than Dark Albion, because it already sounds like Dark Albion does this.

Well, Dark Albion is a setting book. This is a system book. It doesn't have its own setting material, but makes references to Dark Albion.

It's an expansion and revision of what started out as the "Appendix P" rules from Dark Albion.

My blog tends to have more dedicated fans.  This forum tends to have a bunch of naysayers, non-fans, and a lot of people who don't actually want me to do well.

I'll have to talk about that with Dominique, but there's a good chance.

That sucks. Krueger has a point. You should be able to share stuff like that here. I was fortunate enough so see it on G+ which is how I found this forum in the first place. I know you have detractors, and I certainly don't see eye to eye with you politically, but I would like to think that many of the people who join are not just here to troll The Pundit. Whenever you post something OSR related if I think I have a valid comment I will try and give you a straight answer. The thing to consider here, Pundit, is that you do have followers who are here and nowhere else. Like me, they may not follow your blog unless there is a link to a new post. This is not an insult to your blog so much as the fact that blogs are antiquated and aren't as great a platform as they were 10 years ago.

My recommendation here is to make an announcement post on the forum and then lock it. Include a link to your blog post and then... um... remain vigilant. Yes there are dicks out there who read about you but couldn't be bothered to look up what you actually say before deciding to make you a target. When I first heard about you, I had no idea who you were. Mostly because I first saw you in the Cubicle 7 playtest of DWAITAS. I never even saw your name again until the kerfuffle about you and Zak S consulting on 5e. I tried to see what the fuss was about but couldn't find anything that meshed up with the accusations. Sure you say provocative stuff but I've never seen anything to suggest to me that you were a bad person in some way. But there are dicks out there that will take third hand information as gospel and attack anything you do. I am sorry you have to deal with stuff like that. If you don't want to give them an inroad to do that, then don't do it.

You'll probably still have to remain vigilant on your blog, but I think it's worth it to crosspost here.

Yeah, I could have done that. But frankly, I didn't really need that big a sample size.
