Torment Tides of Numeria is out. Downloading to try it now but my internets shit. Any word on how bad it fucked up? Is it a book or a pamphlet? Was it jewed like most of these kickstarter oldstyle-rpgs? Is it fun?

It's very woke and diverse.

Just played 10 minutes, got saddled with two companions who so far lack even a fraction of the charisma Morte had, combined. Maybe they get better. Also what is up with the font? It makes my eyes bleed.

Any screenshots?

So it's gonna be one of those eh? Well i needed a bit of triggering to get myself back up to a healthy amount of anger at the industry anyway

About 4-5 hours in. Nothing seems likely to be trigger the gesta/pol/ for now except Female comes before Male in character creation. Still cannot say if the shit is Jewed or not, but I noticed that it is tumblr'd as in 'Why the fuck WRPG lately has to star ugly character design, I felt like I am thrown into a world of fuglies'. And it is not good. In contrast though, the world looks abstract and oddly beautiful and a felt like a distant throwback to old point and click vidya like Myst, Oddworld, TLJ.
My main gripe with it is that it is very purple prose. About two paragraphs about something that can be explained as well in two sentences. I can do heavy reading, but too much quantity does dissolves quality.
Will post pics later, but right now I want to shower. If I am not back in half an hour, call the president.

As bad as pillars?
Camden Thompson
Well that's good news for once. I honestly thought this thing was still stuck in alpha.
Joshua Brown
I have a theory for that.
They bought into the Torment writing meme, instead of just writing a story they find compelling, they wanted to live up to the "best writing eva" meme and when you try too hard to write smart, you end up with purple prose.

Count theory: They actually think they're being smart but aren't, hence they mistake quantity for quality.
