Could work. Could also backfire catastrophically.

A perfectly acceptable risk. Do it.

Duh.
School would be more entertaining if all the textbooks used black metal fonts. I'd pay more attention, too.
Guess it's time to form my own one-policy political party now.

I know that it isn't really gameplay heavy and is more like an tabletop RPG where the experience is better than the game itself (usually), but I was just wondering because I'm interested in it.


It's definitely a fun game but it gets kind of stressful.


Also you will end up falling out with everyone.

And if you get the Blob, mulligan it.

Alright. Any house rules that could make the game better I should know about?

If SciFi movies teach us anything it's to only proceed if there's a kill switch not partly controlled by the god damn rampaging AI.

And pray that the AI hasn't been watching Star Trek: The Next Generation and decides to bring forth world peace by assimilating humanity itself into its network.

So, it took me 6 hours to run around doing errands because buses. With a car, I could've done them all in about an hour and a half. Imagine how hard I am trying to save to get said car? As hard as possible.

You probably have enough money for a bicycle, which is an affordable way to get around.
