Yeah -- there were a bunch of big loose ends to tie up prior to the coming battle, and I did feel a bit like some of it was rushed. But if each thing (I'm thinking in particular of Dawa's cure) became it's own quest, we'd never leave the Delve! :-D
I'm looking broadly across a bunch of games I've been curious about. Wanderhome is likely one of them.
I'm definitely looking at Blades in the Dark, and Monster of the Week -- I did a quick preview of the MotW pilot in an earlier PTFOOO episode.
ATLA has actually fallen off a bit -- when looking at the Playbooks, I was a little... uninspired. The art is great, the playbook concepts are flavorful, but the moves are not very exciting! If anyone has played and knows what I'm missing about them, please weigh in. :-)
I can not weigh in on ATLA but I'm so very down for a MotW type game especially if it continues in a different part of our rendition of Stone Top. I rather love the setting would love to continue exploring it through different points of view. Especially given that something like BITD and MoTW offer very different themes and motifs to play with.
I think a BITD game would be interesting for some of the far reaches of the hour and the clans. Possibly a few characters from there. I think a MoTW game would lend itself well to a lost tribe over run by the howling curse as a starting hook.
That's a fascinating take. Monster of the Week out in the Whitefang Mountains could be very hot. You can take a look at the MotW pitch -- it's an entirely different setting with new characters, but I think it might still be up your alley: https://ptfo.substack.com/i/136036321/pilot-preview-that-devil-sam-crow
You bring me crooked timber to build my temple.
Dude!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can't take full credit for that banger -- it comes from Immanuel Kant. "“Out of the crooked timber of humanity, no straight thing was ever made."
That's a lot of ground covered in a session. I loved the scene with the bosses and the judge. It really felt high-stakes.
I hope you have a good Thanksgiving break.

What games are we looking at for the pilots just ATLA and Wanderhome?
