i'm an equal opportunity slasher flick director
i'll kill 'em even if they don't have sex or do drugs
$25 for 90 shadowrun books
still not worth it because then you're playing shadowrun (excusing anarchy)
if you like pain tho:
if you want a cyberpunk game that is actually playable in the year of Luigi 2026, including hacking/"matrix"/netrunning just play cyberpunk red
it's head and shoulders above everything else
getting irrationally angry as i clean up my rpg session and i toss your d6s aside and hit a natural 12
where were you when i needed you, motherfucker?
i know i'm probably thinking about this backward, since gurps was modeled as a universal system after the "old school" rpgs, but all flesh must be eaten strikes me as a system with an actual workable and reasonable stat/char gen system
no doubt the argument is gurps could run afmbe
could it? probably. but afmbe can also run admbe and it's fairly robust in terms of homebrewing
i haven't played the cinematic unisystem yet, but from glancing at what people say about it, it feels like a more involved slasher flick style system
or, as i am probably coming at it chronologically backward again, slasher flick probably borrows from that or other rpgs it influenced xD
i don't think unisystem (at least classic) does any better at balancing builds with point buy than gurps does, tho
but at least i don't feel locked into one of two attributes for no fucking reason other than "everything is brains!"

me: "why did i stop playing my first twilight 2000 campaign?"
me: *checks to see that operation reset still isn't out yet*
delta green: the conspiracy
the laundry: management turf wars
it does very much feel like delta green spirals you very quickly down the path of "and that's when i decided to torch the place"
in fairness, torching places is (my) personal go-to >.>
the laundry is also way more open to magic and enchantment and pcs doing occult things themselves, which is nice
dg is much more hamfisted in its: "oh that was a mistake"
part of it i think is the setting as well
if you play american delta green you are almost certainly armed with guns, and things can run out of control fast
in the laundry you're more or less in the uk/europe and even having a 50%> in firearms gets you an issued gun, but it's kept in the armory when you're off duty
how are you gonna spiral when you can't just shoot the guy causing you a paperwork nightmare? inconceivable
it's fun to mix in one (1) american tho
sometimes you need a release valve
"anthropomorphic fallout"
we call that mutant year zero

sometimes you spend all your time fighting a whole army
sometimes you spend all your time trying to bribe an official
i had it in my head that my dnd 5e campaign was the first ttrpg i ever played
that's not actually true because time and memory are lies
it's actually my fallout 2d20 campaign that's almost 3 years old now? lol
i know, i know - i'm behind on dragonbane and forbidden lands
sue me xD
you: "if the zombo apombo happens right now i don't have enough ammo"
me: "if the zombo apombo happens right now i don't have enough pads of paper to play the rpgs i want"
obviously i need to lay in a stock of those good white erasers
lol also remembered that i got the fallout 2d20 starter set by accident
i had actually ordered fallout wasteland to play with my minis but modiphius sent it by accident so i was like "whatever i don't wanna send it back i'll just pay for it"
my intro to ttrpgs was an accident lol
Guys there was this weird knock on my door then a note was slipped under it inviting me to some opera what should I do
πππ
note: this was a cyberpunk red supplement, not a rando indie product
not sure if that matters, but i've ordered other cpr pod before and it still took weeks like all the other pods
maybe dtr tightened some things up?
