    Making Modern Communication Work in Horror Games

    In older movies, you’d occasionally have a situation where one person would try to call the authorities, only to have them show up and be antagonistic to the protagonists. Not just in terms of disbelief or possible arrest, but actually compromised by the threat. See Invasion of the Body...

    I have a Battlecat

    I remember when I lived in Austin back in the early 1990s that someone had done exactly that! Even had the upholstery done in that saddle color. There was another jeep where someone had painted the driver’s side to mimic the brickwork of the store they owned. Austin’s unofficial motto, “Keep...

    Whamageddon (Last) Christmas

    Close call at the UPS Store, but it was a cover. Later, I took my Mom out for Chinese, and they had Christmas music on. However, there was nothing played less than 50 years old.

    Going further, as we’re all aware, disinformation is still a thing online. In The Ninth Gate, there’s all kinds of disinformation on the form of simple mistakes to deliberate falsehoods meant to harm the unwary and incautious. Add AI and deepfake tech to the mix, occult charlatans spamming...

    Making Modern Communication Work in Horror Games

    Excellent question! So much this. I ALWAYS get extraneous results, regardless of how specific I make my queries. In fact, I’ve even done searches that included results that I tried to explicitly exclude. They did that in Jeepers Creepers. All classic.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    TBH, I kind of agree. For the past 10+ years, I’ve pretty much only visited 3 forums on the web: ENWorld and a pair of music boards. On each one, I routinely participate in a large number of OT threads about fashion, cooking, art, books, and visual arts. And- supporting your premise- on one...

    Campaigns in a nutshell. Adventures in a sentence.

    Make sure that actually color-coded questions are shown on a Jerry rigged B&W monitor that replaced the original full color one. Bonus fun if it’s malfunctioning and occasionally displays photonegative images.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    A buddy of mine went through something similar a while back when he asked for a raise. They said no; he quit. After he left, the remaining staff & replacement hires proved inadequate to the task load his small group was handling. So they reached out to him to teach the n00bs his job. Instead...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Try discussing RPGs on a politics site and see what it gets you. (Probably doxxing and a personal discussion with a very confused Kash Patel.)

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Tho I’m reminded of a few years ago when the Sam’s my aunt worked at fired a BUNCH of managers. The new managers decided to make changes without actually looking at who did what in the store. My aunt and 2 of her friends were the only 3 non-managers who were trained to do some particular task...

    Happy Haggert Hurried Hungry Hitch Hiking Hired Henchmen Hivers.... apply within

    Neither am I. But there’s likely a deeper bench of actresses with actual and/or theatrical/cinematic martial arts training in Asia than there is here. Plus some more Asian-centric mythological and aesthetic elements could breathe a lot of life into a remake/homage to The Crow. Besides that...
