Been trying to get into solo RPGs for some time now to try and fill that creative void of mine, and I’m starting to see some further extents to which I’m my own worst enemy in that sense—the very premise of constantly iterative improv kind of flies in the face of my more perfectionist approach to anything I’m actually passionate about, for one…

That being said, I think I’ve nailed down my ideal setup to be a thoroughly simulationist system and statblocks that I can use in tandem with an outwardly nonsensical setting and oracles—the former being especially important, because if I have to make my own call about what a statistic or mechanic represents beyond itself (e.g. whether a monster truck is ‘big’ or ‘very big’), that means I have to start making sense of other stuff in relation to it (e.g. whether anything bigger than a monster truck would even be relevant for my purposes)…which inevitably leads to a snag somewhere down the line that I hadn’t thought about before starting.

Whether said setup is even possible is something I suppose I’ll find out, though I’ve at least heard interesting (and ‘interesting’) things about Four Against Darkness…
