Poll #296 - Horror Kickstarter... Pick the Starting Sub-Genre
Added 2023-01-21 01:33:33 +0000 UTCHey folks!
While we continue to navigate the madness that is the OGL (OGLgate?), we're looking towards the future with our next Kickstarter. Fortunately, I planned on doing something outside of 5e even before this mess, so it doesn't really trip anything up.
The plan for the next Kickstarter is a horror RPG built on the MörkBorg engine. And since it's MB, it'll be very design-heavy. Right now, Tony from DireQuest and I are discussing the overall appearance of the book.
I figured I'd set this book during a specific time period of cinema that catches the zeitgeist of a particular subgenre. Below, I've listed a year tied to each of those periods.
Bonus points if you can guess what I consider the "iconic" movie representing each year and subgenre.
Pick the one that you like best.
A few disclaimers/assurances:
- I'm only working on this project now because I need to get the art started. Art is slow, so you gotta plan far in advance. Also, it takes, like... a day to write a MörkBorg book, so I'm already done with it.
- Hand of the Eight/Pexia are printing and on their way to the boats.
- GMSG is in its final formatting stage.
- Since the 5.0 SRD is going into creative commons, we can continue to create 5e content here unhindered.

Yup. Big year for horror.

2023-01-21 02:58:36 +0000 UTCi mean a cosmic/gothic with elements of psychological mashup would be cool!

2023-01-21 02:30:57 +0000 UTCAny thought to making chapters for each era and or style rather than a whole book on one?

2023-01-21 02:04:09 +0000 UTCI actually have a pretty cool MorkBorg mechanic for how long a scenario lasts

2023-01-21 01:41:04 +0000 UTCI just want to see the monster mechanics that go into a compelling slasher-style BBEG
