The Stochastic Game

Ramblings of General Geekery

If you listen to Pink Floyd’s “The Wall” but end it with “Waiting for the Worms” (so no Stop, The Trial, or epilogue) it’s pretty much the story arc of modern tech billionaires.


The 50th anniversary edition of Call of Cthulhu is releasing soon but those who pre-ordered it should have received it this week! Here it is in all its Swedish beauty! I don’t know how many limited editions of CoC there are but I have a couple 😅


Our RuneQuest campaign of 5+ years has recently ended with one Yelmalion PC killed by a Cacodemon priest and then avenged by the Trickster via Group Laughter & Strike. The Queen of the Bachad, revealed Chaotic, is dead. The city of Alone is in flames. Good times!


Video game companies going “extraction shooters are hot right now, let’s release our own!” is the business equivalent of buying a new dishwasher and then Amazon recommending you more dishwashers.


I recently started a Pendragon #TTRPG campaign (yay!) and I’m looking for a good reference book for weird and cool monsters and fae I could pick and drop into the game. Any recommendations? Thanks!


In Canada, “The Expanse” has been bouncing around platforms like crazy in the last few years. Now, you can only stream it on Prime Video, or buy ONLY seasons 2, 3, and 5 on Apple TV. No renting available. This is madness. Piracy is still the best user experience.
