Are RPGs expected to contain lots of art? I'd like to examine that starting point. I admit I only skimmed the article but I didn't see any analysis of if less art means less sales. I wonder if people are trying to adhere to the standard set in games like D&D and PF, but those have art because they can, not necessarily because they must.

Blades in the Dark is extremely highly regarded and has some art, but certainly not tons of it. Microscope and Kingdom haven't got any, as far as I can recall.

I don't really want to miss my family for that long. Maybe I'd go back to when my kids were babies and become a live-in nannydad? I could see that getting weird though.

If I didn't have that level of control but I absolutely had to go somewhen, I guess I'd either go a few decades in the future to see how it shapes up, or to the neolithic era so I could finally find out a bunch of things we'd never otherwise have known. That era seems like it was pretty cool, and I happen to know enough baseline science to actually recreate some of my favourite amenities.

Cat vomit aside, who wants pomade crust on their pillowcases?

Side note, battletech chess set is a phenomenal idea.

I'm in quite a high income bracket and by sheer luck bought my house right before the most recent price explosion. My small, poorly built, seventy year old home in a lower middle class neighbourhood is now worth four or five times what I paid. If I was renting, there's no way I could buy it even though I'm making much more than I did when I got it. I can't realistically look into upgrading, because the jump in cost to anything nicer is just absurd.

I have no idea how all this is sustainable and even less idea how our politicians think they can keep ignoring it. I know why they're ignoring it, but they must be aware how this is going to end if they continue to shrug and look the other way.

We all know the real reason is that they know about the revenge of the orcas and they're trying to escape before it's too late.

Right? Spending time with my kids is just the best. I have no idea why previous generations of men were okay with giving up on the best part of being an adult

That's never been my experience in the slightest.

Unfortunately i won't be around to find out, it was an old account id forgotten about and hadn't yet deleted. I have remedied that because I mostly don't give a shit what dumb thing Reddit is up to.

This is incredibly shortsighted.

AM radio is not only longer range, as the person above already noted, but a highly stable and maintainable old technology requiring minimal functional infrastructure. It is perfect for emergency broadcasts. It's actually idiotic to remove am radio, it's a classic case of manufacturers trying to save a few cents because they don't give a shit about public safety.

They're not slaves. They're rubes, but not slaves.
