    What system again?

    What kinda gamefeel?

    How do you feel about diceless?

    I'm doing D&D 5e

    I ... don't know how to explain the gamefeel to you. I'm the DM. I'm not really 'playing' the game so much as making it.

    And I have no reference to what diceless would be like so I have no strong feelings one way or the other.

    i mean, what kind of feel are you going for with the game? High fantasy with loads of optimism? Swashbuckley fun? Dark and brooding?

    okay @DasUberEdward here you go, Simon's Patented Nikujaga Recipe That He Totally Didn't Steal From A Japanese Cookbook

    what you need for four servings worth:
    one brown onion
    five large potatoes
    three tablespoons seseame oil
    7oz thin sliced beef (what I do is buy chuck and freeze it for two hours or so, so it firms up and gets easy to cut with a sharp knife)
    360ml dashi (or beef stock or whatever, you could use water but the extra flavour in the stock helps)
    three tablespoons soy sauce
    three tablespoons mirin
    three tablespoons sake or another cooking rice wine
    three tablespoons sugar
    one tablespoon sesame seeds, toasted in a saucepan

    Cut your onion into slices, about two thirds of an inch wide. Peel your potatoes and cut 'em into either quarters or sixths depending on the shape. Heat your sesame oil in a saucepan and add your meat, slice by slice, so it doesn't stick. Saute for about a minute. Add your onions and potato, saute for another minute.

    Add your dashi/stock, soy sauce, mirin, sake, and sugar. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium and cover to simmer for 10 minutes. Remove the lid and simmer for another 15 minutes to reduce the liquid, stirring every so often. Take it off heat when the liquid drops by a third or so.

    Serve in a bowl, sprinkle with sesame, and have some rice on the side.

    advanced notes: nikujaga is a super variable dish and you can add whatever to it, really - usually I chop up a couple of carrots and throw them in with the other veggies, as well, for some variation and bulk. I know people who put snow peas and other nonsense in there, but I keep it simple.

    I do not know what mirin is and I don't think i've ever seen a brown onion but dang does this speak to my simple nature. Sounds absolutely delicious. It's been raining here for days on end and that may just be the kick off to the fall for me.

    also the thing with chilling ground chuck? good idea!

    Mirin is one of the essential Japanese condiments, it's basically a rice wine with a lower alcohol and higher sugar content. I think you should be able to pick it up at any grocery store with an Asian section, or just an Asian grocery store.

    Brown onions are onions, I guess? Just, with a brown outside. I think you might call them yellow onions in the US because you're a weird mob.

    You could probably make nikujaga with ground/minced beef but I prefer to do the sliced chuck beef route. It is more traditional and you get that delicious fall-apart beef thing going on.

    Nikujaga is totes Japanese comfort food, it's one of those recipes that every family has their own variation on.

    It is indeed what we call a regular ol onion.

    I'll have to do some searching for mirin probably. I can't recall ever seeing it but I may have just overlooked it. Either way that is a dish I am making soon.

    Oh, the other thing with nikujaga is that it gets better over time. It's still delicious when you've just made it, but there's something about leftover nikujaga that makes it even better the second and third time you heat it up.

    @Jacobkosh
    There are many early books that deserve to be updated to contemporary times and get hooked into the development of the metaplot, a lot of great but underused ideas that popped up in fiction anthologies have also caught my eye. To name some personal impulses: ”Shoah: Charnel Houses of Europe” and ”Gypsies” (Should be called something like “Opre Roma!”) could use new editions in our age, as the horrors of the fear of the Other is again on the rise in Europe. I read a lot about the Ashirra and Middle Eastern WoD for obvious reasons. I think a lot of greatness is found in books like ”Love Beyond Death” and ”Ghouls – Fatal Addiction” and you’ll probably see us inspired by stories where the supernatural meets the mortal world a lot more. Also, Dark Ages of all kinds! Holy shit, there’s a lot of treasures there. I also love the first and second edition of Mummy…

    Yeah, because if there is something I trust the new White Wolf to get right, it's updating that book.

    yeah unfortunately : (

    it seems like you were just kidding but a common thing i see is someone get called out for spoilers, and the person who got called out gets extremely mad and defensive and either argues fiercely about whether it was really a spoiler or goes like SPOILER THERE ARE HUMANS WHOOPS GUESS I RUINED IT

    i get a little bit that way when someone shh's me in a library or church or something

    it sucks to get called out

    lashing out about it makes people look goofy tho lel

    it's so commonplace and goes wrong so often i just left chat for a bit after i asked for no talk outside of spoilers

    it's philosophically infuriating because it seems like deliberately doing a thing in response to a polite request not to

    but it's become so common and predictable you can often prevent it from being a problem so not always so bad
