[OCHH] Designing again
One Can Have Her is back. Peter Nordstrand rekindled my interest in the game a while back, so now I’m playtesting and writing again. I’ve asked some people whose opinions matter to me to do external playtests, and I continue doing my own.
I’m confident the game works after playing this Saturday at Peter’s mini-convention OmniCon. Actually playing this time, with Peter as game master. That helped me identify a couple of things that need clarifications.
Oh, and I won. I guess you can talk about winning in a roleplaying game about making the others take a fall for you to reach your dreams and get the girl? My aggressive doctor managed to become famous and work in high society. He originally wanted to become famous for legalizing abortion in 1960s California, but had to settle for the fame of paving the way for a legislation. He then rejected the femme fatale, because she reminded him of his former life.
The two other player characters, a paranoid government agent and a conflicted nightclub singer, ended up in jail for 30 years and dead by suicide floating in a swimming pool respectively.
