hello there.
I copied list of influences into my notes. These are either what I love or what I hear about from people who I love / like and or cool devs. This list of influences felt like home.
Things written on the itchio intro page describes game I would write if Caves of Qud was more important to me and if it was not my first year on the scene — making, playing and GMing.
Should i just jump to the Lone Eons quickstart? or are there any other, entrance points, approaches and communities?
What are your fav online communities related to the Lost Eons that are not discord? I find Discord too fast and distracting, it's also prone to the data loss if mismanaged anyhow (some people quit Shadowdark community after what happened there).
I will probably begin with bringing The Quiet Year to our local ttrpg club, and then dive into the Eons via the solo quickstart, however I'm very curious about where're you're at and how this game is happening to other people today.
did devs mostly or totally moved on to the Eco Mofos and other projects because there's more fun and money in making new stuff?
would you rather prefer that new people who's getting to know your work begin with the Mofos or its artless demo?
thing is my ttrpg reading list already has a lifetime's worth of books, that is if these are meant to be experienced by reading them and then scheduling and actually playing with other people, so I'm trying to get the feel of the game and its people beforehand to make everything more connected and learn better ways to find the commond ground when introducing these games to my communities, where I am the one most enthusiastic about all the new systems, settings, adventures, styles of play, cultures and procedures.
I know it's a lot and I hope it makes sense. Basically I'm new to this and a bit lost. But very curious.
