Planescape: Torment comes close, but in hindsight is hampered by its gamesystems and D&D legacy. Something of a Varney the Vampyre to DE's Dracula.

Sometimes the game surprises even the dev. We just discovered you can parry the Shoggoth's grab attack. Totally unintended, but the systems clicked.
Pair Sanguinara's parry damage-vulnerability debuff with a well-timed Primordial Fury Sigil for some huge hits.

Insomnia/up too early #TTRPG hot take:
Optimization is a system issue, not just a player issue. Systems that reward system mastery encourage system mastery. I honestly don't get why that should be debatable, let alone controversial. It's self-apparent.

#Game question of the day:
Does anyone remember A Kingdom for Keflings? It was made for the #Xbox360 Arcade. I wish more games like this had been made. It’s simple but so much fun. I do appreciate that I can still play it on my newer system. #gamesystems #smallergames

They rarely do from what i've noticed in the other gamesystems, but i'm super happy they gave us Munda rules for the Ratlings and Beastmen, probably will play them more here than in Killteam😄
