Posts from Mafia: general discussions. Auto-translated

You'll love it, I promise...

I'm a germophobe, so that's unlikely... What's the setting, anyway? I don't remember what we were talking about.

About Batman.

Damn, Yaщур is salty )))

Even though I understand him perfectly, I love Revan too much to be toxic...

Too much salt in the body can lead to the formation of stones, so it's best to avoid it.

Regarding clues, role descriptions, and especially the latest game, I remembered an article I read and experienced firsthand, both in Mafia-style games and in comics. The article had a point: what the author considers to be the most transparent and understandable, the reader will not notice or understand. Because the reader doesn't know what's in the author's head, what their logic is, what aspects they focus on, what is important in the narrative and what is not; plus, the author may keep in mind some very obvious points and sincerely wonder how readers couldn't have figured it out, because for them, it's not obvious at all (my case, kek). The person who wrote the article suggests writing in a simpler way; when he filled his work with hints and deep meaning, readers found at best half of what was laid out on the surface, and didn't even reach the deeper layers, so he lowered the level of encryption.

Complex descriptions are a feature, not a bug.

[the obligatory joke about the ultimate hardcore mode]

Yeah, that's right, there's more discussion when people are still guessing roles, rather than just focusing on the clues. And there's room for maneuvering if you're the Mafia. But overall, it's good if at least two roles fit the description.

Yeah, don't give any information in the newspapers at all. The coolest newspaper I've ever seen was called "Nobody Died." No joke... And how much room for maneuver there is if you're the Mafia, hmm...

Happy New Year!

Let's play Mafia!

Nah, not really.
