A reminder that this war isn’t new, even before the mass consolidation of TV stations, they got together to standardize commercial break timing so it didn’t matter if you changed the channel because you were just switching to commercials on another channel

It’s a legal override to an invitation. Does the vampire care about the law? I’d say no, a legal authorization to enter uninvited does not qualify as a mystic override to enter uninvited

Not me but my fiance, it was the only thing that brought her out of a months long paranoid psychotic episode, intensive medication, involved observation, multiple times a day therapy sessions with actual psychiatrists etc. She hated the experience, it’s like jail but with softer furniture. It took about 2 months before they were comfortable signing off on her release.

This kind of mental health rehab doesn’t seem to be what everyone else in here has in mind though, everyone else just seems to be talking about going to counseling rather than actual inpatient treatment

As a forever GM, this is one of my favorite tropes, it’s usually one of the driving forces in my worlds, I tend to prefer narrative power struggle type top level conflict in my worlds and this trope just makes for such fun gameplay.

Either there’s multiple influential organizations vying for control of the ancient tech, or a group of userpers that found it, or the current ruling org is using it, or it was undiscovered until the PCs activated it (a good way to also be able to fluidly integrate a chosen one trope into a group without one single chosen one)

Softbank doesn’t seem to be having many hits recently

Rightly so. It’s a meme worthy movie, quotable lines, etc, but overall it’s a pretty generic movie, a pretty generic overall story, one that’s been told over and over. It’s full of over acting, over exaggeration, and overdone everything.

It’s a fun movie but it’s absolutely on the same level as The Fast And the Furious (1) it’s the same thing, fun action predictable story that’s been told over and over and it’s the over playing of common tropes that makes it fun

Neither movie is Oscar worthy at all but both are great fun watches with quotable bad lines

There’s a few answers but none of them are the real answer.

It costs next to nothing to include in the car but adds a substantial amount to the selling price OR it doesn’t add much to the price but adds substantial perceived value from the buyer’s perspective
