Why have I never heard about this one? *looking it up* Ohh... CGL ๐Ÿคฎ

But as it seems to have survived their usual bullshit it seemsto be worth a look now. Thx ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜€

Is CGL referring to Catalyst Game Labs? Because they are no longer the publisher. EP is now wholly owned and published by Posthuman Studios

Yes, it is. And yes, I saw that. That's what I referenced with the game seemingly having survived CGL and now worth a look.

CGL were only the publisher, and not any more. It's published directly by the creators now. It's also under a creative commons license, so you can freely share the rulebooks and create your own material for it.

Not believing in quality control or even proof-reading. Not believing in testing or errata. Not believing in small details like paying the f****ing people writing or creating artwork for them.

This kind of totally normal stuff...

Didnโ€™t remember that Posthuman had this โ€ฆ problems. Now theyโ€™re only a one man team anyway

[โ€“] Voroxpete@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Posthuman never did. Eclipse Phase was created by a small team who really cared about it and put the work in.

It also came out before CGL really went downhill, circa Shadowrun 4th edition, which was great.

IIRC Rob Boyle quit Catalyst after SR4 (and all the bullshit they did) to start his own studio : Posthuman
