Question: is Numenera a “post apocalyptic game”?
Obviously yes if you want to be pedantic because 8 “Worlds“ have risen and fallen before the current one, BUT it’s so long after that, that it doesn’t feel like a PoPoc* setting. At the same time there constantly scrounging interesting objects from past people’s, like a PoPoc. 🤔
* PoPoc = post apocalyptic, courtesy of The RPG Review Board podcast.
@masukomi I think it really depends on the table and where in the Ninth World the campaign is set. I could easily see it feeling that way in some areas of the Beyond or the Frozen South. But I wouldn’t characterize most of Steadfast, Deep, Night, or Outside settings as PoPoc.
@masukomi LOL, I get that too. I always binge on the MCG kickstarters so I have all the books and supplements in PDF for search, and physical for reading (and honestly, the art).
