The Stochastic Game

Ramblings of General Geekery

Reading up on the Eclipse Phase #TTRPG, it looks like Transhuman Space with some added horror and space opera, which is an intriguing combination… it sounds very interesting, if you’re OK with dense “everything plus the kitchen sink” settings. I still want to play Transhuman Space one day, though!


Everybody playing Cities Skylines 2: “It’s so buggy! And the performance is so bad!”

My kid, who played CS1 with a trillion mods that utterly tanked the game: “It’s actually totally fine!”


Our youngest kid has pulled a long con on us, doing all kinds of household chores without being asked for the past two weeks, only to finally ask for Cities: Skylines 2 yesterday with his cutest voice.


I finally saw the cult classic Ravenous (1999) and really enjoyed how some of the very dark things that happen are sort of left unsaid. Plus, it’s got many actors I like, and the premise is absolutely ripe for a TTRPG scenario. Great stuff.
