So honored to craft these creative works for Yochai Gal and Mana Ramparts Matt! And of course, thank you sir Dorkus for taking the time to review these, from my desk to yours - thank you for the support, I really appreciate it.
Rarely have I found a game that hits as many target points that I personally enjoy and is also succinct and concise. "Refined" is a nice descriptor for Cairn. Nice overview! In a very short time, I have become a big fan of this fantasy ttrpg.
That they do. I am very impressed with the craftsmanship that was taken in this special edition printing of your game. It is superb. 😊 I am looking forward to reading it in more detail and giving it a go soon. Also, sincere apologies if I mispronounced your name. 🙏🏻
@@OrcusDorkus you know what's crazy? I watched with CC on because my kid was sleeping, and it correctly wrote my name. That was actually awesome, a first time for me.
While Cairn is a blatantly plagiarized mishmash, it is also the perfect rulekit for my next campaign. It forces players into the fourth pillar of ttrpgs: shenanigans.
I wouldn't say plagiarism is a fair word especially when Yochai has been open about his influences in interviews, and more importantly, lists them in the thanks list on the first page, and right on the back cover. Those are are "into the odd" by Chris McDowall, Knave by Ben Milton (questing beast) and Dolmenwood by Gavin Norman (necrotic gnome). Yochai also was influenced by electric bastionland, saying it was his favorite game in several interviews, but it's just an expansion of into the odd by the same author, so I don't think it's weird that only the initial work is cited. Yeah not plagiarism if you cite your work. And the OSR space is very much iterative anyway, that's normal.

Too bad you just take peoples cash and never respond now. Turned into a scam really quick

Plagiarized from where?
