  • makes me think of Vitis and Gesheft, the steel and silver sword set from Witcher 3 that are the best available for a sign build. they’re only accessible in one of the two branching paths in the final mission of the main quest of the second dlc. so if you want them, you have to choose that path, and then once you have them, the game’s over, and you don’t get to use them. only way for them to actually be useful is to make sure you get them both in a previous playthrough, and then start a ng+



  • honestly, this is fine. I think people within the rpg space forget that the general public largely has no idea that the space exists. they have never heard the term “tabletop role-playing game,” but they have a vague impression that “d&d” means nerds sitting around rolling dice and pretending to be in a fictional scenario, so if your game is anything like that, “kinda like d&d” is a fine descriptor for that audience

    or as the famous tweet says: “guy who’s only ever seen Boss Baby watching a second movie: kinda getting Boss Baby vibes.” inaccurate or ridiculous as it may seem, if that’s the only exposure someone has to the concept of a “movie,” then using that as a jumping-off point to explain that other stories of different types can be told by pre-recorded moving images is still useful. you have to introduce the medium in general before worrying about genres within the medium, or works within the genre
