I've been playing Marvel Midnight Suns at home recently. The tactical combat and card actions in this kinda makes me want to play this as a video game
BorealMage: I've heard Midnight Suns is a pretty good SRPG
Gekyouryuu: Strategy RPG?
BorealMage: Yeh
Orxolon: good evening every1
Cptasparagus: Sous Vide
thrythlind: @Gekyouryuu I just reminded myself of a game of Illuminati where my sister and brother had a fierce bidding war over a group to influence and I was occasionally adding money to one side or the other... eventually my brother froze in the middle of placing another money unit, stared at the pile of money I'd poked him and our sister into spending... and said "Discordians"
Orxolon: WHAT IS THIS!?looks so cool
LoadingReadyRun: Cori did a Play it Forward of Midnight Suns a while ago

MTGRanger: what currency is Ben spending to re-roll?
Orxolon: activate the wings!
thrythlind: @MTGRanger I think it has something to do with the missile module he added to his ship?
MTGRanger: @thrythlind interesting!
LoadingReadyRun: @MTGRanger it's a pasive ability of his cassis
thrythlind: last round Cam had a missile launcher that did 4 smaller missiles
Orxolon: i love this type of games,only know the star wars one
Orxolon: the stats at the bottom are victory points?
thrythlind: the fun thing is the ships are modular models... like lego builds... so you can take different loadouts and builds with each chassis depending on what modules you add
KeytarCat: Life and Evasion
Orxolon: cool,thanks
Orxolon: i think i'm catching up
Orxolon: he said XD
KeytarCat: The included tracker counts health and evasion with three disc trackers. I'm reading the manual, btw

Orxolon: and one falls when the sword is sheated
Gekyouryuu: fun fact: that scene of two swords crossing, a beat, and then a MASSIVE blood explosion was due to an sfx malfunction
Orxolon: @Gekyouryuu tell me more
KeytarCat: Now I want a samurai game where the objective is to get mutual destruction with the highest combo
Gekyouryuu: @Orxolon the person in charge accidentally overpumped the blood sprayer, worried it wouldn't show up well, but it backed up and was delayed on release, then released way too much. they thought for sure they'd failed and Kurosawa would be mad, but he just nodded in approval.
hiFunko: every game should have a ticking missile clock
Orxolon: @Gekyouryuu wooow,cool
Gekyouryuu: so a moment that is iconic and referenced in damn near everything was an accident salvaged by actors staying in character
Orxolon: true proffesionals
KeytarCat: @Gekyouryuu Love me a man who can recognize cool shit
micalovits: Helps that no one knew how much was supposed to come out, so it was totally all planned

Twilight_Spark: How dare you imply America is less than honorable.
Gekyouryuu: @hiFunko that's just reminding me, I rewatched a review video of Endless Space 2 today, and a System Destroyer fires a massive shot into a sun to turn it into a red giant and destroy a system... but it takes several turns for the shot to get there, so you just see it slowly crossing the map
