The one I read was a collection of silly sketches and some light leftist social critique, but he was Danish communist iirc and worked with the soviets a lot, so I'm not surprised he drew propaganda too
My dad had a small paperback of Bidstrup's comics, I loved reading them! Especially since some of them were quite dirty 😆
goose-stepping will be done in the exact same uniforms but I do agree with everything else.
Perpetual mana machine? Magical power MLM? Cultist cooperative?
either way I'm in
wearing non-agab clothes -- dirty pervert stop corrupting children
flashing at a literal school -- freedom of speech baby
I love collective storytelling elements as a gm, hate them as a player though -- I wanna relax, pretend to be a person and explore the world, not think about what makes a better story.
Blades in the dark which has a similar thing (I think) is fun but not in a usual carefree manner.
Ironsworn in gm-less mode is an extreme version of that

People don't really change.
Im not really asking from a power-dynamics standpoint, more as a narrative tool. As a gm I change the world to make what I see as a better story (no cheating necessary I'm literally the universe).
Like, if the players do an ambush of BBE and (according to the rules) one-shot 'em, he'd have a shielding amulet leaving him heavily maimed but alive. Not cause how dare you kill my beautiful npc, it's just kinda anticlimactic otherwise. (Unless the ambush was a huge challenge in itself. Then we're good, murder away)

Terrain -- sure, good use-case.
Enemy behavior -- probably just a buzzword for what enemy algorithms have been for decades.
Streamlining tasks -- ai summaries for git commits instead of typing it out? work for work's sake, kinda hate it
this is the real scoop. use llm to generate code, touch a bit then shove into main branch without any understanding.
development is getting the "translation treatment", when it went from being a skilled field into a minimum-wage one crowded by overworked interns with google translate.
