Don’t get me wrong, I’m absolutely going to read up on it after mythras. It will just take me so much longer to get the feeling for how to tell the story of benevolent armored core ostensibly set in Macross. And even longer to adapt the lexicon that it deserves.
Like, I can currently describe thundering annihilation and cleaving the landscape in only so many ways. The mechanics are simple in comparison to avoiding repetitive verbiage. This is prime brisket. Mythras won’t require months for me to fully immerse myself, which is why I’m checking it first. It’s just much less involved and I need something to fall back on in case “the thing I’ve been super excited to show you guys” doesn’t fly.
Edit: also, how dare you introduce me to another comic that I now have to read
That is an entirely reasonable position! I didn't mea to try to push you about it, I am just enthusiastic to share a thing I'm a fan of. Sorry if it came across otherwise. I wish you luck in your games
Oh no, you didn’t come across that way at all! I just felt obligated to explain the reason for where I’ll begin reading, given that you were my impetus, and I needed to affirm to myself that it was the right course after how miserable call of Cthulhu ended up being for one of my players. You are a lovely person with excellent taste in ttrpgs, and also very probably too hard on yourself.
