    A White Wolf fangame. They're the antagonistic faction of mad scientists from Genius: The Transgression. The big thing about them is that they refuse to call themselves mad scientists, because they don't believe that they are. No amount of proof can convince them that phlogiston, the Hollow Earth, and the planet-pushing angels aren't real.


    Also, they used to serve reptilian overlords.
    i see, i think i get the concept they were going for, but that description still seems kind of iffy, unless in-universe 'Phenomenologists' is, like, a name that's stuck around for historical reasons but is no longer applicable?

    only i'm thinking maybe the Genius: The Transgression writer encountered Husserl via either Heidegger or Derrida and missed the point

    are Lemurians a faction from White Wolf?

    They are a faction from Genius: The Transgression.

    White Wolf is the company that publishes the World of Darkness games, of which Genius is a fangame of.

    You may know the names of more popular games, like Vampire: The Requiem, or Werewolf: The Forsaken

    Ah ok, sorry. i had heard of White Wolf but didn't know if it corresponded to a particular universe or was something more general.

    And yeah, i've heard of those

    irony of misusing the name 'White Wolf' while talking about terminological misuse is not lost on me
  • My dreams exceed my real life
    The World of Darkness games I'd be most interested in playing are Promethean: The Created, and Leviathan: The Tempest.

    No one plays Promethean, and Leviathan is a fangame.

    Man is a most complex simple creature: see what he weaves, and how base his reasons for doing so.
    Basically what I'm saying is that they're wrong about everything, and one of those things they're wrong about is philosophy.

    But if two wrongs don't make a right, then I wouldn't know, because this really isn't my field.

    Okay, but it's like saying "They subscribe to Socialism, which means they believe deeply that we should all be very Social, and have as many friends as possible."

    mostly just seems weird that they'd be called that

    it's like, idk, calling a bunch of fictional Catholic stand-ins 'the Southern Baptists'

    or maybe like calling a bunch of fictional physicists 'the behavioural linguists'

    just, badly misnamed

    A fair point, but I should point out that now that you mention it, I would so play a Silicon Valley, Facebook/Tindr/Uber app-churning Socialist mad scientist.

    so I left Spotify on while playing a Flash game with the intent on listening to the rest of the Mountain Goats' latest album and when I checked it again I was 80% done with their previous album in addition to being finished with the new one

    i couldn't tell that it'd switched at all and I think that's probably just a testament to how good this band is

    This video continues to fascinate me, because the actual meat of the video is lame and overplayed at this point, but the parodies are mostly funny and entertaining.

    The problem with Promethean is that by its very nature, it necessitates moving around a lot, which means it doesn't really play well with crossovers, and the Storyteller has to constantly come up with new places to live in.

    I understand the appeal of Magical Girls, but the genre is Not For Me.

  • As much as I hate to say it, I can no longer hear a connection between Rush and Limozeen

    Or at least, random selections from Chronicles are less similar to Limozeen than some of their more popular hits.
