    Slender Comes to Horrific Life

    Wow, just played it there. Defiantly works as an atmosphere builder, Making you super-afraid of taking the next step. Just wow, give it a look (perhaps it's just all the Marble Hornets I've been watching but Slendy just makes me jump out of my skin)

    Poll: What if an RPG used real races?

    Well, gaming (as well as every other medium) has been doing this for years already with Cultural stereotypes.. Which is fine.. Tends to work best in historical games where there is clear and abundant historical data which represents these differences well Eg, in Age of Empires, the Ottoman...
