I absolutely agree, the creators should be spoken to. At the moment that idea is a distant way-off kind of one that I know how to make happen but haven’t put any into action yet.
I thought I’d drop this post here without much fanfare just to indicate that I intend to have a lot on my larp plate for a long time to come. I’d like to make a career of making games.
Today I begun the talks around getting corporate backing and resources to run Exquire under. The vision is far bigger than what I could afford to support on my own, and even paying someone (me) to run it full time it would make a profit.
There’s plenty of overlap. Cool eh
The games are also designed to end in a timely manner. I know as a player I would prefer to play “the next great game from the creators of Nibelungen” than I would like to play Nibelungen for longer than I was interested in it.
Nibelungen has a date and SAIL has a tentative date and a research trip on Saturday. Announcements soon.
