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'm just disappointed. I read the title of the thread as "New 'Shadow Dark Western' reaches Kickstarter" and thought they were making a wild west game.
Playing: Mongoose Traveller 2e
Running: On Hiatus
Planning: Too many things, and I should probably commit to one.

LOL.  Given enough time and the license for third party products, I see this as an inevitability.   :)

Yup. There are already 3rd party post-apocalyptic and sci-fi settings for Shadowdark. A wild west game is only a matter of time.

My Little ShadowPony is probably more than just a fever dream as well...   'Effin furries ruin everything!  :)

The Scrying Dutchman is making a modern warfare supplement for Shadowdark as we type this. It also is being funded by Kickstarter money.  Currently sitting at about $8000 out of $2000 asked.

It's called Blacklight.

I'm glad for you if you like the top selling game of the genre.  Me, I like the road less travelled, and will be the player asking we try a game you've never heard of.

BTW, Kelsey held a 2+ hour Ask Me Anything video on YouTube regarding her new Kickstarter.  Someone asked about printing costs, and Kelsey said she wants to print all Shadowdark materials in the USA, because she supports her country.  That was nice to hear.

Admittedly, I've been out of the printing business for 5+ years now. But even in the US, the problem where I worked was paper mills. Companies made more money converting their mills to produce toilet paper and feminine hygiene products. I don't know if that burden has been mitigated somehow. So printing in the US may not be the flex that is wanted.
