    At My Most Burned-Out in 35 Years

    Lots of good and practical advice up thread. All I would add is you have to take care of yourself. If you don’t the burn out and stress will creep into the other parts of your life. The only practical advice I’d maybe give is find a game to play in and dry and discover your hobby joy again...

    What is your wishlist?

    A streamlined GURPS. Theoretically I love jt. In reality it plays slow and cumbersome for me. But when I want something gritty it’s what I reach for first. Then walk it back.

    What games, currently, have your interest?

    that's the plan. The biggest change is a fundamental change to the Bennie economy and I'm not gonna lie, I'm a little nervous about it. In my changes for this specific game, I've replaced general bennies with a Stress stat. The Stress stat does everything a Bennie can do, plus the Flashbacks...

    What Are Your Favorite TTRPG Genres

    I used to run only fantasy. I’ve made a conscious effort to expand what I run/am comfortable dragging my kicking and screaming players along with me. Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn’t.

    What games, currently, have your interest?

    Of I had to be pinned down right now I’d say multiple worlds. I want warp travel in at least one chapter. Definitely multiple worlds in the same system. In my head the Australia connections are being pursued by a rival Radical =I=, the London sections involve planetary nobility, the New York...

    Currently obsessed with building out a Blades in the Dark style game in Savage Worlds. Running PF1 Wrath of the Righteous. When I decided to run this I had nostalgia goglgles on. I vastly prefer the SWADE Pathfinder game paradigm. Potential games I’m looking into: Dark Heresy/ Imperium...

    When, How and What Do You Play?

    I run a weekly Tuesday game session over Foundry. It was my weekly in person group pre-Covid and once we moved online we haven’t moved back. Scheduling and attendance has been much easier. Occasionally that group meets in person on a Saturday for something special. Currently running Wrath of...

    Anyone played Masks of Nyarlathotep?

    The 7e version is what I ran. Its gourgeous. There’s a 400 page supplemental fan made pdf out there with a ton more information on local color and other advice. I ran it pulp style in SWADE so I went into with the idea that a bunch of stuff would be resolved with two fisted punching and...

    Anyone played Masks of Nyarlathotep?

    I had a character get sucked into a painting and transported back in time. The curious inventory then jumped in after him after he saw him in the painting. Ahhh London!

    Anyone played Masks of Nyarlathotep?

    I think if I were doing it again I’d run Peru and then maybe a couple more short adventures in the intervening years. Maybe with some contact and news about Elias, and then jump into New York.

    Anyone played Masks of Nyarlathotep?

    I’m not @Retreater but I’ll give my answer. I run a lot of prewritten material. MoN was perfect in that it allowed for the players to choose where they wanted to go and what leads to pursue. For a prewritten campaign that’s rare. The NPCs were well done with appropriate prompts for playing...

    Anyone played Masks of Nyarlathotep?

    In a the first three chapters in Savage Worlds pulp style. We the characters died in England in a mundane encounter. We had a great time and will go back to it with newly hired investigators later this year I think. I had a great time running it and the players enjoyed it immensely. I ran it...

    Do you have a default TTRPG gaming mode?

    I’d say I run a pretty traditional table. I tend to run pre written adventures/adventure paths with player buy in. The game systems I run tend to be geared towards more traditional play modes as well I run a lot of PF1, Savage Worlds, and other more traditional games.
