Old Sexist Regression. Don't need this kind of RPG news in my life. I came back to this forum, and it was a mistake. I'm closing the door definitely and throwing away the key.

Yeah, I did zero new prep for this week's Shadowdark game. In previous sessions, I had written a log of most recent activity and I knew what threads were left dangling. The players grabbed onto one and I was able to recall what I had planned eight months ago and just do that. I think that still counts as prep, but it's prep I did in 2025 and was just able to run with today.

As a person who spent an awful lot of time in college arguing about which comic book characters would win in a fight*, I understand the appeal of learning all the lore of a fictional setting but I have never understood why so many nerds not only don't care about the real world history of the comics or movies or books they obsess over but also try to use the in universe logic as an explanation for why the writers or corporations that own that decide to do things.
