       Hey all, what's your favourite digest-format #ttrpg specifically when it comes to layout, and why? Asking for inspiration for my own project.

       @lextenebris Starfoged is a great example! In fact, when asking the question, a handful of examples sprang instantly to mind - and Starforged was one of those! I have had the pleasure of playing a co-op game of Ironsworn with the author @shawntomkin and have run a Starforged campaign on my channel.It might not be on the same "artistic" level as games like Mörk Borg, Thousand Year Old Vampire, or Eat the Reich, but it is one of the best examples of graphical user-friendliness in our hobby.

       @lextenebris  you're not the first person who I've heard this from. But I will say that I've played Mörk Borg and don't find that the layout gets in the way - on the contrary it inspires me. But I totally get the issue. For my own projects, I prefer to create cleaner, user-friendly layouts, too.

       @lextenebris @cptbutton @cybergoths please stop tagging Shawn Tomkin, folks.Disliking a piece of art doesn't make it bad. And MB is a piece of art whose influence on the hobby is huge. Pirate Borg and Fleaux both spring to mind as much more accessible games that are graphically inspired by MB.Games shouldn't have to follow some sort of best practice style guide, esp in a hobby rich with artists. Let them do their thing and move on if it doesn't resonate with you. :shrug:
