No big deal to me either way, although I do wish them luck.
I'm excited, but I also love that setting they've come up with. If the game sucks, I'll just port it over to 13th Age or ACKS, which was my original choice when I read the strips involved.
In satan's name I summon thee... thread necromancer.
Has anyone tried this?
I looked at it and found the initiative system completely broken. If you don't defeat the monsters, because they are automatically healed when the deck is reshuffled, your efforts mean fuck all.
Nice art though.

I couldn't be bothered to read that long article. Lost interest a couple paragraphs in. I dont know who those guys are, either. Anyone want to summarize?
Are these guys game designers? I thought they did a webcomic.

These days they are little more than a webcomic (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penny_Arcade). Take note of the section labeled Penny Arcade Events.
The person running this website is a racist who publicly advocates genocidal practices.
I am deleting my content.
I recommend you do the same.
Here is more info about the game - mixed reviews overall

The setting looks quite interesting though.
