60 of 116 · most liked firstNew article time! This one's about Planescape: Torment. I was commissioned to cover it, so I have. I was... disappointed to find I didn't really like the game. I tried not to be too mean, but I really, really disliked this game's treatment off women. docseuss.medium.com/okay-heres-t...
unlabelledView post →The difference between DnD games back then and now is that Baldurs Gate 3 is the best video game I have ever played while Planescape Torment is the best video game I have ever read
unlabelledView post →Not the sort of torment I was expecting, really. "I’m convinced there must be some other game called Planescape: Torment out there, because the game I cleared was one of the most misogynistic wastes of time I’ve ever experienced." kimimithegameeatingshemonster.com/2024/10/08/p...
unlabelledView post →could not co-sign this more Planescape Torment gameplay is… difficult but IMO the only game that has ever reached its level of writing is Disco Elysium BG1, BG2 and Throne of Bhaal (the expansion to 2) make one of the greatest epics in video game history and will make you appreciate BG3 even more
unlabelledView post →the players' lawyer in my Planescape game is a Chain Devil who betrayed an archduke of Hell to Heaven in order to stop a layer of Acheron from falling into the Nine Hells and, as a result, was geased to be incapable of direct evil. as a result he mostly did good as sadistically as possible.

unlabelledView post →Planescape and Disco Elysium are easily my top two RPGs writing-wise, absolutely incredible game wish the gameplay wasn’t quite so… well, but still worth it
unlabelledView post →I was proud of this one, let me tell you. It was sharp, it had great NPC's, WotC was so excited about it they were willing to move up their plans for 3rd edition Planescape and include some of the characters and seismic events from the game in the setting reboot. We were ready to start writing!
unlabelledView post →Years ago an RPGnet poster got mad that I told him his game wasn't completely original because Planescape did something he was doing first, so I made a game that obviously ripped off Planescape and he started posting "this SJW stole my idea!!!". It ruled

unlabelledView post →I interviewed a guy for a writing internship who spent the whole time talking about how he hadn’t played any video games since Planescape Torment, no other games matched its writing, and all other game writers were lazy hacks. We uh… didn’t hire him
unlabelledView post →I followed Kimimi's playthrough a few months back and it surprised me, the kind of stuff she was sharing. I hadn't played it through for a long time but held it in high regard as a Planescape fan. So I went digging and came across the design document that changed my perception forever too.

Most of my work is for Paizo, on the Pathfinder and Starfinder RPGs, and you can find a list of my publication credits on my website:

unlabelledView post →Seeing some large Lady of Pain on my TL reminded me of an excellent comm I got from @theroundartist.bsky.social as a gift to the players in my Planescape game. She was not this big in-game (unlike Shemeshka) but I thought it would be fun to get some Planescape fats.
unlabelledView post →Everyone should play Pentiment. If you're a European history buff, even more so. Even futher so if you're a narrative cRPG enthusiast ala Planescape Torment and/or Disco Elysium. It's only $10 right now, and the entire game takes about 10-12 hours. store.steampowered.com/app/1205520/...
unlabelledView post →Thanks to someone on BlueSky (I forget who) for recommending Disco Elysium, I played it obsessively this month. An absolutely delightful game, and the closest thing to recapturing the magic of Planescape: Torment I've ever seen. Next maybe Rogue Trader or Pathfinder.

unlabelledView post →Game 32 of 2026: Planescape Torment "What can change the nature of a man?" This is hands down one of the most philosophical games ever made. The combat on Normal difficulty is a joke and often tedious. But we don't play Planescape for the combat, we play it for its narrative lore. (1/n)
unlabelledView post →Disco Elysium is one of my favorite games of all time, and a work of art that transcends the gaming medium itself. It's time I finally played the narrative RPG that inspired it. A game heavily philosophical and extremely esoteric, which is totally me coded. My next game: Planescape Torment

(Or DM me for a copy!) This literary D&D game laid the foundation for many others. www.degruyter.com/document/doi...

unlabelledView post →Esoteric Ebb is such a good game- the setting really stuck with me and the writing was very much to the standard that I'd expect a game inspired by Disco Elysium/Planescape to be. So, I decided to draw up an OC for it- been a while since I've had that itch! Eavine, a wistful Lamplighter...

unlabelledView post →Side convo about Birthright bubbled up something interesting about the old setting boxes and their interaction with the default D&D experience. Planescape & Birthright took game elements restricted to a narrow wedge of play (planes & rulership) and opened them up for the whole game.

unlabelledView post →I feel like this is a timely question: what is your all-time comfort game to replay? The handful that come to mind for me are Witcher 3, Skyrim, Planescape: Torment, Grim Fandango and Curse of Monkey Island.

unlabelledView post →GURPS --> Fallout --> Planescape Torment --> Disco Elysium --> Zero Parades ....buuuut ppl can just play a session of GURPS and enjoy it for its own sake, consider that activity worthwhile, etc. It doesn't need video-game justification!
unlabelledView post →I think I need to share this Planescape chasme meme beyond my game group.
unlabelledView post →This is the only correct opinion on Disco Elysium. There isn't anything as ambitiously densely written in video game RPG form, since probably Planescape Torment? Just go for it.

unlabelledView post →Disco Elysium feels like the kind of game Planescape Torment wished it had been able to be.
unlabelledView post →Remaster of PlaneScape torment lol. The most elder millennial nerd coded game in existence.
unlabelledView post →It was high school, my friends were all into D&D, and we were all picking our own favourite line. Ravenloft, Spelljammer, Dark Sun. It was 1994. Planescape came out and I fell in love. And given our game-tribalism, I defended Planescape as "mine", giving me investment. (more)
unlabelledView post →Planescape: Torment lets you use your own petrified arm as a weapon and I think the game basically peaked there.
unlabelledView post →Planescape Torment is a game that kind of annoys me Because its that irritating kind of rpg where there is One Correct Build if you want to actually play the game
unlabelledView post →Slightly diminish a game. Planescape Discomfort
unlabelledView post →I am rarely, if ever, floored by a game. I remember Elden Ring doing it to me, Skyrim, FF7, Half Life 1, Planescape. Now this game too.
unlabelledView post →Haha how about a classic game hot take: everybody loves Planescape Torment but the games that really messed with my mindset of how I, the protagonist, am the world's most special cool boy (all protagonists were boys) were FF7 and Monkey Island while honestly Planescape Torment just maximizes that
unlabelledView post →The game that turned me into a capital G Gamer was Super Mario Bros 3 for the NES. I was barely six and that's the game that made me understand videogames as failure-friendly predictable spaces. The other "origin" game is Planescape: Torment, who fucked me up so bad I ended up studying philosophy.
unlabelledView post →Planescape: Torment. Greatest adventure game ever made and one of the best stories period.

unlabelledView post →I've tried watching streams of D&D games, like one that Jack Black participated in, and I just couldn't. Watching people roleplay is just too cringe for me. Long-established feelings from high school in the 80s I guess. I'll still read Planescape game materials, etc. I just can't watch people play.

unlabelledView post →So, I managed to fix this. And then the game got a massive update for the first time in years. Which deleted all my save data for real this time. Do not buy Planescape Torment Enhanced Edition.
unlabelledView post →not only do I have this game but it’s right on top of the pile alone with a bunch of other vaguely random games for #RandomGameSaturday like my review copy of Planescape Torment Thirteen down at the bottom feels out of place
