[Meta] Victory Conditions

Alright, my writers block is killing me and rambling out of character is much easier than doing actual work so time to drop some bombs on this motherfucker.

I'll be straight up with all of you bastards, this is a shitty game. Like honestly, it's god damn terrible. The limitations of hosting on Reddit, the fact that it's god damn impossible to balance without someone throwing a tantrum, and the absolutely fucking silly idea that the mods are all metagamers/cheaters and are only in it for themselves, playing /r/modpowers or some shit. And to be quite honest with you, no complicated-as-fuck mechanics made by the moderators are going to fix that. By their core design, /r/powers games are terrible.

So yea, the game is terrible. Why are we still here? I'll fucking tell you while we're still here.

LORE, MOTHERFUCKER.

Yep, lore. Thats literally it. Without lore I would have stopped playing this shitty game after /r/westerospowers.

I wasn'y always such a massive lorefag. I used to play to win like a lot of the other try hard cunts on these subreddits. Hell, it could be agrued that I won r/westerospowers. But that victory is fucking hollow, ya wanna know why?

Because that victory was attained through metagaming bullshit and general douchebaggery. Oh, and the fact that the game itself was garbage, just like this one is.

It was writing lore that really connected me with the shit ton of friends I made in this shitty game. And without that lore, all we would have been was passing acquaintances on the internet. Without that lore we wouldn't be a community, just a bunch of people on the internet playing a really shit game on reddit.

What i'm trying to say is, we're not even a r/powers game anymore! We've moved away from the base model, our game is different then any r/powers game left anymore! So, why the hell should we go back and reverse this change and go back to the old way of doing things with complicated mechanics and shit like that.

Nah, fuck that. Lets just write a good story, yeah?
