this is a purely personal pet peeve but indie games where the central-mechanic is based around dice that refer to a single die as "a dice" - this behaviour is like, singlehandedly enough to repel me from a demo I would otherwise be interested in. Like I understand most people don't have editors these days from the number of VNs I've played where people talk about being "unphased" but if your whole game is about the mechanic... please. please. A die! singular die! Pick up the die. Drop the die. I am begging you

i've edited rules before where they used "die" as the plural and "dice" as the singular and the linguistic descriptivism left my body in the form of steam out my ears



MAGIC LORE: in a world where exactly five groups have always held a tenuous peace.... until it boils over with the arrival of dimension-hopping ubermensch saviors

NEW NETRUNNER LORE: the world sucks but the subaltern can speak. they are speaking the language of firebombing the walmarts. you could do this too.

YU GI OH LORE: we looked at two random lists on wikipedia and mashed up their names. now to spin the spinner to see which one is the garnet. i like the spinner. it's a beautiful day.
