Hmm, I'm not sure.

I think the problem is that when I first started this, there were simply too many things I wanted to try, and so I wanted to do all of them, and ended up with a lot more than I could reasonably handle, and ended up in this bad habit of always having just 1 too many things to keep track of.
So I'm going to try to stick with fewer things, now. And I do have a pretty strong fear of failure, but I've come to realize that it just turns into apathy later on, so I have a strange relationship with commitment. I feel bad when I drop a game, but not for long.

I think what I need to do is to do things that can hold my interest longer, or run things that have a feasible ending.

Hmm, makes sense. In that case, I wonder if a look over your longest-running games would help you glean what makes games interesting as a GM. Maybe even some mechanics that you'd like to incorporate in your new ones.

IMO the thing that makes mastahcheese's games so interesting is how good he is at coming up with mechanics in the first place.

Huh, I always thought that the mechanics part of it was what I was bad at. That's part of why I'm trying to run a system someone else made, this time.

The diversity of the and the charm of the illustrations is what does it for me.
In other words:
Wow
Many game
Such mechanics
Much illustrations

Also make sure it's not going to be so much work you burn out on it!

Yes, that.

Time marches on.



The settlers came.






Time passed








Decades.











Centuries.



And now, we stand on the brink of a new dawn.

The lands are rich, and there is plenty for all.



If they shared.



They will not.

And now, all our hopes, our dreams, our wrought plans may come to naught, as struggling factions tear themselves apart.

'May'?


'May' is too generous.


War is coming, my friend. It is undeniable. They dig into the ground. Miles upon countless miles darkened.




I guess...




 I guess....

Yes?


Then there remains only one question left?

Yes.

Who fires the first shot?






Chapter Two: Bloodmoon.

[Elephant Parade]

Be lich. Summon undead minions.

[Coolrune206]

Be a Golemancer. Summon souls into bodies of clay to create golems of clay, brick, and even stone and iron.

[darkpaladin109]

I can join this new thing, right?
Be goblin leader of the world's bowmen, with army of evil bowmen at my side.

[Xantalos]

Be cat. Kill people.

[Dorsidwarf]

I can join this new thing, right?
Be Demonmancer. Summon demons to serve my cause.

Of course you can. Please do take note that this is the same world as the previous half, and therefore retains all quirks of that game. And don't just post a 'mancer because everyone else is.
