This one is a pretty important one to get out there, a lot of things have been updated and patched to feel a little better now, namely a few mechs that have had a scrutinizing eye over them, Also very importantly: All the art work has been properly uploaded to Comp/con, including the few mechs that are yet to get a spot light on it. Thank you all again for your support and for those who might not have it: Here is the link to the Itch.io page.
If I were just one degree bolder as a designer and the Eureka: Investigative Urban Fantasy rulebook wasn’t already too big I would implement a rule where your investigator has to go to the bathroom once per 10 or 20 Ticks or else lose Composure or something.
What this would add to the game is something that occasionally separates one investigator at a time from the others thus making them vulnerable, and a plausibly-deniable-through-mechanics excuse for one investigator to separate from the others on purpose in case there’s some secret they have to keep, and it would start to be noticeably weird that certain investigators (like vampires) never use the bathroom; what it would also add to the game is pissing and shitting mechanics.
Metal Gear Rising really was a game that screeched about how the violence of the oppressed is caused by the violence of their oppressors and therefore the two aren’t equal, but also violence is dehumanizing so be grateful for those who fight since they’ve martyred their souls for you and packed all that into 4 hours.
At the same time, it also had the weirdest fucking dialogue in video games like “MEMES, THE DNA OF THE SOUL!” and had its main antagonist literally say “make America Great Again” three years before the U.S elections

Guilty Gear: Dual Rulers (2025)
man i need to lancerpost more often
in all seriousness jesus christ my phone has not stopped exploding for like three days
i'm enjoying all the constructive takes though. love you mech nerds. mwah.
thing i noticed
so the ips-n blackbeard has that bulky torso and those evil shoulder vents
you know the ones.
so basically, what i noticed is that, despite being the mech with The Big Greatsword, as far as i can tell the blackbeard completely lacks the range of motion required to perform complex swordfighting maneuvers (especially ones with a heavy blade such as the nanocarbon sword (although i'm not John Swordfighting so don't quote me on that))
so it's probably less used like a sword and more like a sharp tire iron or perhaps a lawnmower blade that you gave a wildly-swinging maniac. which. i mean it, is the blackbeard.
just took some holy antacids that were like skittles and i think thats freaky and weird. like hello, gracious defender, thank you for your service to my evil body— YOU DON’T TASTE LIKE DOGSHIT? impercievable! burned at the stake.

hey so it’s march now aka the beginning of endometriosis awareness month and i feel obligated to remind you that debilitatingly painful periods are not normal. if you or someone you know is ending up sick or bedridden every month, you are not crazy and deserve medical attention from someone who will take you seriously
