Megathread: The Manifestø Project

Hello again. Been an… interesting week for the Naish and this sub, huh?

Anyways, as most of you are I’m sure aware, Troy recently announced his side project of his Manifestø RPG along with this video. Since it was last posted on this sub, there has been an understandable explosion of discussion.

Similarly to the Bard discussion, we’re beginning to see a lot of new threads rehashing this concept and flooding the sub. Except unlike the Bard discussion, there has also been a surge of discussion as to whether or not Manifestø RPG content should be limited to Community Friday posts only. It is, after all, not official GCN content. Given Troy’s involvement and his many references to the GCN in his pitch video, the mod team has decided for now to not limit it to Community Friday, though we plan on revisiting this decision as more updates and discussion comes up.

That said, everyone does have a point that this is tangentially related to the GCN, which is what the subreddit’s focus is supposed to be. And we’re already seeing “Soap Box” reports on posts and, as I already mentioned, the sheer amount of discussion is already becoming similar to that of this week’s Bard discussion. So similar to the Bard discussion, we’ve decided to limit discussion to this Megathread for the time being.

Once again, we encourage civil discussion and value everyone’s insight. We just ask everyone to remember Rule #1 of respect applies to all members of the Naish, the cast and crew of the GCN, and specifically Troy (even if his latest business decision has been controversial). Discussing thoughts and opinions about this venture and Troy’s involvement are fine, just please do so without disrespecting him as a person. Thank you!
