A WTF Were They Thinking Kickstarter - My Little Pony Dating Simulator Game

Let's just take a moment and thank whatever higher being you pray to that THIS will not fund.

Not much more to say other than who the hell needs a My Little Pony Dating Simulator Game?

Never understood that side of the fandom. I love the characters, but wanting to date them is just creepy

This definitely isn't the first attempt at a pony dating sim. I don't recall if any of the others were ever completed

Please. In a world with not 1, but 2 pigeon dating sims (look up Hatoful boyfriend), you think THIS is weird?
But for 10k, no way they get the licence and it's doubtful he wouldn't get sued into oblivion if it actually was produced, especially if it had... adult gameplay.

If it doesn't fund I guess we'll all just have to keep using the Book of Erotic Fantasy with Ponyfinder...

Well, to be fair, it's not worse than the Rainbow Dash sex doll. Still, I doubt this is licensed at all.

This has me curious about what happened to that princess warrior game that was a Disney lawsuit waiting to happen.

Why "Swords & Wizardry?"

Believe me when I say I have them all in dead tree format. I have OSRIC in full size, trade paperback and the Player's Guide. I have LL and the AEC (and somewhere OEC, but I can't find it at the moment). Obviously I have Basic Fantasy RPG. Actually, I have the whole available line in print. Way too much Castles & Crusades. We all know my love for the DCC RPG. I even have Dark Dungeons in print, the Delving Deeper boxed set, Astonishing Swordsmen & Sorcerers of Hyperborea. BOTH editions of LotFP's Weird Fantasy and some dead tree copies of the Greyhawk Grognards Adventures Dark & Deep

I am so deep in the OSR when I come up for breath it's for the OSR's cousin, Tunnels & Trolls

So, out of all that, why Swords & Wizardry? Why, when I have been running a AD&D 1e / OSRIC campaign in Rappan Athuk am I using Swords & Wizardry and it's variant, Crypts & Things, for the second campaign? (Actually, now running a S&W Complete campaign, soon to be with multiple groups)

Because the shit works.

It's easy for lapsed gamers to pick up and feel like they haven't lost a step. I can house rule it and it doesn't break. It plays so close to the AD&D of my youth and college years (S&W Complete especially) that it continually surprises me. Just much less rules hopping than I remember. (my God but I can run it nearly without the book)

I grab and pick and steal from just about all OSR and Original resources. They seem to fit into S&W with little fuss. It may be the same with LL and the rest, but for me the ease of use fit's my expectations with S&W.

Even the single saving throw. That took me longer to adjust to, but even that seems like a natural to me now. Don't ask me why, it just does. Maybe it's the simplicity of it. At 45 52, simplicity and flexibility while remaining true to the feel of the original is an OSR hat trick for me ;)
