I like the fall. Summer is way too hot and makes normies run around and party outside. In the fall when it gets colder they already start to stay inside more. So I can take my time walking along the same path as always and admire the color of the changing leaves and wonder how many times I will walk this path before this time of my life comes to a close as well. Perhaps I will miss these mundane scenes one day. Perhaps I will forget them entirely. But for now I am comfy and enjoying the sights.

I've been interested more and more about the power of daydreaming. I think that if my daydreaming ability was extremely advanced, that it would activate an entirely new level of self-actualization for myself.

To this end, I've been looking for ways to enhance my ability to daydream, and have recently gotten interested in writing fiction (which there's already a thread here about it >>59403 ), tulpas (plenty of threads about that stuff), and in solo roleplaying. I don't see anything about solo roleplaying games, though, so I thought I'd make a thread about it.

I've tried solo roleplaying before in very naive attempts, but you run across the obvious pitfall: the temptation to metagame your character against knowledge that should only be privy to the GM or other characters is just too much. Quickly, it becomes unrealistic. I'm just getting started in this space, so I don't know a whole lot, but some of the systems (oracle systems like Mythic GM, for example) and techniques (solo episode journaling) that have been developed are a lot more advanced and appealing than I thought they'd be.

If anyone knows about any good solo RP systems or thoughts about it, please share.

I've put some thought in trying to make the system as bare bones as absolutely possible and this is what I have so far. Each successive iteration I've been stripping out more and more until this is what I'm left with so far. I still don't know if the categories quite make sense/work in my playtesting so far, even though I can force them to work…
My main issue atm are the action/theme oracles. In practice, I find I do need them to be that small so that the whole system "fits in human memory" without too much effort for a new player. By making them "multiplicative" I can capitalize on the exponential compression to really expand their power, e.g., you "roll" 3 times to get a word for each category, and the word combination defines the theme/noun or action/verb. This allows me to "fit" a lot more words into the same space. However, I find the theme/action oracle to still be really abstract to work with in playtesting so far. It's hard to bullshit up a MBTI/Compass system to define nouns/verbs.
The fate oracle I think works well when you play with the principle of "If you aren't willing to accept 3:7 or 7:3 odds, then don't bother with the fate oracle and just have it happen in the game."
Idk, I'm going to do a bit more playtesting to see if I can even out the action/theme oracle kinks.
I've got a more complete writeup I'm working on w/examples/etc., but I wanted to make sure I could at least get it not only on a single page, but on a single page with plenty of white space and DEAD simple (it's got to be done all in your head!).
Again, I don't know if I'll be arsed to finish up the full writeup, but whatever. I find the full writeup interesting as it not only explains all the design choices so far, but also explains what I've noticed in some other playtesting, which is that the system seems to have far more applications than just games.

Been playtesting some more, and the main issue I've come across is using the theme oracle. There are the specific words I choose in the theme oracle are giving me..bad vibes.
It's also not just that I can "represent" as many things as possible with as few words as possible, but I have to make the weightings of those representations be things more likely to carry a story. For example, one time I was playtesting and hit "ethereal" like three times in a row and was like, "O.k., come on, I don't want to make a @#$!ing pantheon right now!"
I think I can fix it by choosing the word categorizations more carefully, and being more willing to completely avoid certain categories, but…I'm not an ontologist.
…
I just had a thought. If I incorporated toki pona's ontology, I think that might help. Also, if I gave the player choice at each vertex of the triangles between a word or it antonym, that might help too?

I swear there was a thread for this. Oh well. My first attempt at doing something in Godot. It's mostly code spaghettied together from tutorials and reading the engine's documentation. Let me know if you play it, and definitely let me know if you manage to beat it. The pain level is hard but doable. AD for movement and J or W for jumping, Enter for start. Gamepads also work.

Sorry GNUtard, even if you had the code and managed to compile it through a decent C# compiler running on Wine, your castrated Thinkpad T240 wouldn't be able to this game.

Nothing worthy of shock videos online or anything, but more of a life/outlook observation: strip back the systems of control - government, religion, wealth (and wealth disparity). What's left are people just trying to get through their day. They probably won't be anything great, and after a generation or two most will be forgotten. I'm cool with that and aspire to non-greatness myself.

Do you read them? do you prefer them over japanese light novels or not?
they are so popular in my local community, even more than japanese light novels, no idea how, given they don't have any animated adaptations, and people who read for pleasure are rare.

I went on a trip with my family as a kid to some heavy volcanic/geothermal city in my country and on the property we stayed on there were these little finernail sized rocks all black and with some red specs on them. We collected them as we were using them for tokens/cash for the poker games we were playing. I found one the size of my full adult hand, about as thick as a dictionary too. I know it's somewhere in my garage but I can't find it.. I loved that rock I used to pretend it was magical as a kid, and it reminds me of better times. I'll post it here If I find it.

I hate it when I see a really nice human made art and it's just plastered over with a giant NO REPOST OR AI LEARNING right in the middle that makes it look really ugly and unable to be appreciated. Their fear of AI has contributed more to the enshittification of their own art than the AI they're accusing of doing it.
