That's probably a good idea. I might invest in learning telekinesis so I can throw those grenades without using my piddly Strength.

Huzzah! A hit!

Once Bert moves, I'll perform and we can get on with this map.

Uncertain, the forgeborn decided to plow ahead nonetheless.

"It seems that the local blacksmith is haunted by what he believes to be the spirit of his dead offspring. He told me where the body might be found and what we can try to do to put the spirit to rest. That is the easy part. The difficult part is that we will have to dig through the ruins of a serial killer's house to find what we're looking for. I have already secured tools and transportation.

"Who is with me?"

Unfortunately, mouseover text doesn't work on all browsers and is useless on mobile. It isn't a bad idea, I'm just not sure it will help enough people to be worth the extra headache.

The construct shrugged.

"My knowledge of interrogation techniques is limited, but from their behavior last night I do not believe our prisoners will remain silent for long. If you and perhaps the Sheriff get to work, you may be done by the time preparations for departure are complete. Are you ready to hear of the matter now?"

3772
Pause.

"I do not understand their tongue but it is unlikely that any goblins we've encountered so far have done such a thing. Specification is still required. The ones we captured can probably be interrogated first. The bands in the surrounding wilds are a larger issue I am not confident can be dealt with at present. Which were you referring to?"

3773
"Specification required. Are you referring to the ones captured last night or the larger groups nearby?"

Aloisturm lets its companions eat for a while before making a mechanical coughing sound.

"I hope you are all adequately rested. A matter has come to my attention and I request your assistance in order to resolve it in a timely manner."

I believe I did nine rolls and then re-rolled one. Well, first I did a couple of test rolls to make sure the roller was working, but I made sure to claim my official rolls when they came up.

... so, what are we looking at in the future? Subliminal messaging during cutscenes? *pans across great vist[DON'T FORGET TO EAT]a* *final boss rising in its tr[YOU MUST REMEMBER TO SLEEP, FELLOW HUMAN]ue form*

Shiiieeet, it could team up with google analytics or something and deliver targeted messages. *Main love interest leans in clo[YOUR CHILDREN NEED FOOD]ser*

My rolls were kinda bad, but then I remembered that you're allowed to re-roll one stat (though you must accept the second roll, even if it's worse). I re-rolled the three I got previously and scored a 17, which is nice.

Spoiler: Still a WIP (click to show/hide)

I'll worry about spending xp and picking equipment when I'm more awake.

inb4 game devs face billion dollar lawsuits like tobacco companies

tbh maybe some of them should. It'd be really hard to draw the line on what's acceptable and what's not, but just like tobacco companies, games companies know this and are profiting off it.

That said I have no idea where the line is. There isn't really games companies claiming that gaming is healthy for you or anything. So it's not as easy as cigarette companies.
In fact, for the last few years at least some gaming companies have been including reminders to take breaks every once in a while. I know a lot of first-party Nintendo games have been doing it.

I'm a wee bit leery about switching adblockers, if only because of complacency.

If folks are running a succession game, may I recommend two mods?

One which allows all crisis events to occur in a single game.
A second which lets the Scourge begin showing up much sooner than normal. I believe the first check takes place maybe 75 years into the game, rather than 120+ like in vanilla.

Those two should add plenty of fun.
