Is it me or once again, DnD is the issue instead of the people?

Actually not really, like any governments but it hapoened to have some good decisions some times.

Neglecting little victories, little baby steps, is a way to demoralise everybody. Rome wasn't built in a day. But they didn't wait to have the plan ready either.
It is so French to be against things when they are not final nor perfect. "One idiot standing is better than 10 intellectuals sitting". Abortion would never have been added to the constitution is it wouldn't have been first a more little law before.

No, it's not. They may not cancel M$ contract but one step at a time, one hand may challenge the other to sign it again. Yes, it's called administration.
Nevertheless, for once, let's recognise something is moving in the good direction. This country is rotted by sarcasm, nihilism, and unrealistic theorical positions. Just try to smile when there's something good.

How many devices are we talking about?


Which are from Belgium 🤭

It's a cap reused by the French revolution. A woman with such cap represents Marianne, the personification of the French Republic.

I just want the story to move forward.
Also, having a combat in 2 rolls build tension for when you can, in fact, avoid the combat.

I wrote one is better, I didn't write that one is forbidden. When we speak we use one at a time in a sentence (see meme above) so... how both?

Right. Let's start by the right to privacy written in the constitution. A constitution is not for companies/corporations/enterprises/zaibatsus/gafam/moral entities.

Game master is better. Less Dungeon focused. Dungeon Master can also raise eyebrows when people think of Dungeon for BDSM.
Game Master is better.

I suggest to listen (or watch, but listening is enough) to Blades in the Dark by Oxventure. At least the first 15 to 20min or the first episode. You will have a good illustration of the engagement role and how players select their skill.
I GM Blades since 10 sessions if you have questions. Even if it would be out of topic.
Edit: Oxventure don't follow all the rules which present a simplified and more accessible way to play BitD to me.

SOLO BORG: Play MÖRK BORG on your own


I am undecided about this universe. I like the tone, the concept (the world will end soon) but I find the system heavy.

By All-in, I wanted to refer to poker when the maximum risk is chosen.
Sur, elected representatives have to be trusted. Or we have propose an evolution. For now, I don't know which one :/

the split between EU, government, Law enforcement authorities and the military is concerning
I find this reassuring. Of course there's the habit to go left and right (not the political sides, just the directions) at the same time but it is also a way to avoid extrems.
I don't want to have an All-in vote for all Europ layers and agencies at once with the lobbies of the music influencing what the armies could do.
If a chat control law passes in Europ, it will have to face the right to privacy.

It is done in a French Game INS/MV (In Nomine Satanis / Magna Veritas) which has been badly adapted in English.
There's a d666 die made of 3d6. As you can play daemons or angels, 111 and 666 are critical successes or falures depending of your side in the Great Game.
Just to say: it is a humorous TTRPG which feels like playing in Good Omens.

Two links to X.com. Right. And she is against the article twit, perhaps the article. Nothing to do with what Snowden nor his material.

Only English games?

Which FW (Firewall) could be recommended?

Fading Suns core rulebook.

Which oracles deserve to be more reckoned?
I am currently researching some oracles for new game. I know the Muses & Oracles but it's a French one. And I can't find the equivalent in English.
So on a larger question: Which Oracle would you recommend?
