Howdy Nerds. I'm posting for the first time in a long time. I'm betting there's, like, one person left who still reads this, but what the hell right? Today I'm talking about Tabletop RPG kickstarters that I enjoy. I'm sharing!~
* Godbound: A Game of Divine Heroes - This is a D20 game, but it's more of an "Old School Revival" game, so it's vaguely based off older D&D rules. If you hated D&D 2nd edition, though, don't let that discourage you. It doesn't have all the annoying bullshit.
The idea here is that the Humans in the multiverse found Heaven, went there, and God was gone. Then they kicked each others' asses trying to take over, fucked it all up, and sent (lots of) the worlds back to the Dark Ages. And then later on the leftover power from their insane battles starts drifting down from Heaven to give randos the power of demigods. It's spiffy. Also the game developer says that we're allowed to share the Beta documents, so feel free to check it out first.
* 7th Sea: Second Edition - Realtalk. I don't know exactly what the hell this is. I didn't play the original game, but the pitch just worked for me. It's a Swords and Sorcery Pirate game set in a world vaguely based off that era's Europe and... Shit, I don't know what to tell you, watch the video. Just watch the fucking video and make your own decision. This was an impulse backing, and judging by the amount of money the guy's racked up, it's super popular. I think it's a risk worth taking, but I don't have first-hand knowledge.
So yeah. Games and shit!
...
That is all.
