While obviously not a reasonable method to do so, it does seem like the eradication of human life (and parallels, like the myrmidons) would probably weaken the Exarchs to cosmic insignificance, what with their symbols representing forms of tyranny borne from humanity.

It also helps that they're not like the Ten Who Were Taken or ringwraiths, people of vast power ruling the world, and are 'just' symbols. Gravity doesn't smite down planes just because they manage to let humanity overcome its pull....

They are the ones who seem to have the most say in what big games to make now.



Agreed. The new Arkham game (looks like it might be Gotham oriented) is going to be 'games as a service' and I hate that stuff, but folks seem dead set on getting rid of the old things I liked so I'm probably just on the wrong side of stuff....

Chara may have been inspired by it, as Undertale came out in 2015 a good 8 years after Autumn Nightmares.

All the complaints we're going to hear about the new Far Cry.

Might use Dark Eras sheets....

My point is that it doesn't.

Providing you're not freshly changed, you know what your triggers are. And unless your workplace involves thrown silver weapons, or for some reason you're aiming for disharmony, odds are you're fine.

In first edition random things were more likely to cause Kuruth but in second edition it's pretty easy to maintain control....

Indefinitely? Uratha don't rage just because someone upsets them. All of the example packs from the Pack book, detailing how packs work, have steady jobs. Software development company, hospital administration and staff, fire department, and band....

I meant in the aforementioned 'purge' they didn't succeed in getting rid of everything, I should have been more clear, the tumblrs I follow have been almost entirely unaffected, with nipples galore. But yeah come the 17th I'd expect pornography to be gone or going. They said they're allowing some artistic stuff but I'm sure there's going to be regular viewers trying to go through the site and report anything they can to instill some puritanical view of what their internet should be like.

Patreon's trying to curb adult activity too. Seems like there's plenty of room for someone who...

Definitely a solitaire, he's never seemed to particularly like groups that aren't slaves to his will. If he became a Seer he'd likely get bumped off by another.

His attempts to control folks like Kingpin and Dr. Doom usually fail.

They might have gotten rid of stuff with loli in the title but they certainly didn't get rid of porn featuring adults. It's definitely on their list. It's financial suicide of course, for all that people claim they don't want to be associated with one thing or another thing is the worst in the world they certainly don't mind using it themselves.

The 'we're cursed and ugly and lonely' thing is more of a Masquerade aspect of Nosferatu. It's not a way you have to go in Requiem, and you can have a hideous, isolated ventrue who's shunned by vampire society due to being unappealing.

[nofather]

That's perfect. It's complex enough that it seems mysterious, while also being so complex people should use Pangaeans.

If you're stating 'V:TR was never a setting' as an opinion you're not being particularly clear about that, you seem to be making it an objective statement.



You're misrepresenting the game. You clearly think it matters, since you've brought it up repeatedly. If you want to educate yourself about the matter without reading what other posters say, you could read the core books, either of them, which paint a fairly clear image of the Requiem setting. Even the aforementioned Chronicler's Guide, dedicated to offering you different ways to play, explains that these are different...

[nofather]

People correcting you will happen when you keep spreading misinformation about the game....

[nofather]

Well if they're in torpor there's not much they can do about it.

[nofather]

In the Nosferatu clan book some ghoul or revenant family serving a particularly old and crazy vampire keep him in a bath tub and, it appears, suck on or eat his flesh for their vitae needs.

I should have posted the whole thing, here's just the 'creation of the world' part, there's significantly more, it's all in the original World of Darkness core and I believe it was reprinted in the God Machine Chronicle fiction anthology..

'The god-machine built our world as a resting place for its First Children, whom men called angels or Ancient Ones. After a time, the ancients desired servants to dwell with them, servants who walked upright and had pleasing shapes, and who could speak. They sent the proper prayer-signals to the god-machine and were granted leave to do so. First...

[nofather]

Likely it didn't, but its angel supposedly tells Marco that, and you can take them both on their word and what they say literally.

'The god-machine built our world as a resting place for its First Children, whom men called angels or Ancient Ones.'...

That's why I said you'd still have to do the usual submission thing. For all they can tell your work is great but it took you ten years to write those two stellar pages.

There might be someone out there who thinks their work isn't worth submitting or who has missed the many calls for submissions and otherwise is a solid writer.

[nofather]

From a purely realist standpoint. If someone is selling a lot, consistently, and people are giving good reviews, they would likely take a look at their work.

And let them know that if they want they can put in a submission to be put into the freelance writer list.

I find this unlikely to happen, but who knows....
