Interesting that my TTRPG interests have shifted even since making this account.
Most recent #Stargate #StargateRPG is pretty much dead.
License-holder is getting dicked around by Amazon and probably won't be releasing anything else. And wasn't experienced in RPGs to begin with, it looks it?
Also, the online community is tiny/dying, and one of the most energetic people left is a *real* asshole, someone I'm avoiding.
Sad but probably time to move on. (And change by background!)

Oh, and actually *running* a #Genesys game appears to be fiddly/tedious because of minion groups.
The only online system that helps with this is RPGSessions, but it specifically has no mapping component.

I'm actually running the "Test Drive" today! And it was explicitly recommended to me as easier to set up and run than a Genesys game.
And their main Discord is more hoppin’, with new games popping up every week.
I guess I'm on the fence about it, though?
Seems pretty complicated.
And the "Weird West” setting *isn't* one I'll continue with. I find Wild West settings to be *incredibly* problematic, and not personally appealing.
