In just under four hours, we're streaming @NightInTheWoods. As a Southern Ohio native, this one has me REALLY excited thanks to their appearance on @thetrillbillies.

And now, #maschinezeit second edition is available for sale. It's a perfect game for your October/Halloween spooky one-shot game.

Short thread talking about #maschinezeit. Bear with me.
It's a much shorter book than the original. The game was supposed to be good for one-shots. The original took forever to get to the meat of the game. We felt that we had to make the book bigger to appease audiences. This time? Super tight and barebones.

Dear “This Is Not Normal” people,

Kindly shut up. We’ve had numerous rapists as Presidents with zero consequences.

The only thing that’s not normal is the discussion of possibly making it matter this time.
"This is not norma—"

YES IT FUCKING IS. IT FUCKING IS AND MAYBE IF WE SHUNNED MEN LIKE THIS 25 FUCKING YEARS AGO INSTEAD OF GIVING THEM EVEN MORE POWER, WE WOULDN'T FUCKING BE HERE TODAY
THIS IS NORMAL. GET IT THROUGH YOUR HEADS. THIS IS NORMAL. WE HAVE A RAPE CULTURE BECAUSE THIS IS FUCKING NORMAL. IT DIDN'T START WITH GODDAMNED TRUMP AND IT WON'T FUCKING END WITH GODDAMNED TRUMP.

Oh god, I have a shitty opinion.
I get some of the points about the new contrapoints video. Some I think are reaching. But the response to the video is one reason I don't work out complex feelings about my gender in public very often.
I am so deathly afraid that if I present my conflicting feelings, that I'll be perceived not as an individual, but as an usurper trying to speak for a community.

So, yay, more visual novels! This is a good thing. But I can't quite put my finger on why an article talking about how if you don't like (insert very Japanese genre), you'll like (games by non-JP developers) "reinventing the genre" rubs me the wrong way.

theverge.com/2018/9/25/1787…
Actually, replacement works to explain. “Don’t like burritos? Think beans are gross? Here are four non-Mexican chefs who might change your mind. They’re reinventing the dish.” That’s it.
I wouldn’t be bothered if it was framed differently. “Can’t find Japanese VNs? Here’s some great English-first language ones you should try!” It’s that reinventing thing that makes it seem culturally imperialist.

This is terribly sad. This is why business growth is the enemy of creativity.

So. There's a lesson here, for those interested. When you're doing big name licenses, the prices always go up. That means you need to sell more and more to make the same profits you're used to.
Even if they continued with a moderate growth, expensive IP licensing just doesn't cut it. Coupled with the fact that sequels don't always pan out to be as successful as renowned originals, this becomes a death spiral.
