I greatly enjoy how you explained the game! You were down to earth and fair. It's refreshing to see a review that doesn't have OVER THE TOP editing. Instead it's a calm, sophisticated discussion.
Knave 2e is incredible. Easily my most-played RPG this year (first with the PDF, now with the physical book) and my go-to system. Thanks for covering this. This game deserves a lot of attention. It is amazing.
Knave is a big influence on my own game. Knave 2 will prob be a purchase next year or whenever it becomes available to the general public. Great vid, cheers Keep 'em Rollin'
Thank you for another wonderfully unscripted and rambling first look. The GM and Player "duties" section alone is something that I will be printing and handing out to some of my game groups. I am looking forward to paging through when my copy finally shows up. Thanks OrcusDorkus and congrats on hitting 1k!!
you got that last run of Prince Valiant, right? if you drop a video comparing the new Pendragon to the new(est) Prince Valiant, I'd play that video so hard
This makes me excited but sad at the same time. 2e looks really great, but if you missed the kickstarter like I did, it seems like you're SoL. Have you heard anything on when it will be available for purchase or (my worry) am I hosed because it was a limited printing for the kickstarter? Questing Beast Blog has said "coming soon" on that for what has to be a year at this point.
Well according to Hurst there are few lingering in Backerkit reply limbo, so not everything has shipped, but keep an eye on his Swordfish Islands web store as he’s fairly quick in getting books up on there after KS fulfillments.
@@OrcusDorkus Right on! Thank you so much for the info! That's genuinely the first feedback I got on this. Also I just noticed the "College" shirt, and being a massive fan of Animal House, that rocks! Happy Friday!
@OrcusDorkus I'm not sure, but it is on Pg. 71 under Classlessness. "I've tried to make each ability score as useful as possible to avoid there being an obvious 'dump stat'" I assume he means like in some D&D-type games, Dexterity is for initiative, ranged combat, dodging, etc. It is super useful.
14 minutes on Knave, 20 on my sciatica, 15 on a good biscuits and gravy recipe, 10 on me complaining about the Rascal article regarding RPGs built for APs. 4 on me complaining about what I ate earlier. 😅 You know, typical.
This has been bothering me for a bit: your audio is WAY too clear for a completely unprofessional presentation. There needs to be a washer/dryer running in the background. And maybe even sound like you're talking in a tin can. So you're only semi unprofessional. LOL
Howdy! Thanks for the kind words on my maps in Knave!! Yeah, Hot Springs Island was not me, but its a gorgeous! Cheers!!
You are welcome. Thank you for creating such fantastic maps. Where can I find more of your work? 😊

That shirt is epic.
They took the bar! The whole fucking bar!

Holy Mackeral! Your words were totally prophetic! I just learned that the swordfish island store was ready to go with 2e! Best day ever!
Cheers! 😊
The answer to why wisdom is the ranged stat is in the designer commentary.
Essentially it was to avoid Dex being a dump stat.
Fair but what system has Dex as dump stat?
@OrcusDorkus I'm not sure, but it is on Pg. 71 under Classlessness.

I assume he means like in some D&D-type games, Dexterity is for initiative, ranged combat, dodging, etc. It is super useful.
@@OrcusDorkus It's to make Wis not a dump stat, spreading a bit of that power of Dex in other systems to Wis in Knave
Congrats on 1000.
An hour? Jesus, what were you rambling about?!
And yes, this is coming from me.

Oh look at that. You put yourself in a box.
What till you see the overlay I have myself in when I discuss arseholes in the hobby. 😜

I was choking throughout this video and didn’t edit a thing. Some people just are never happy. 😅
@@OrcusDorkus I'm just giving you feces. I hope you're well!
