Shout out to Andrew Shields!
Shout out to Andrew Shields! What John has created is something magic. But Andrew’s essay (page 200) is really illuminating, even in one page.
If you’re doing a hack or a reskin, definitely heed his words.
I document what I gleaned from his essay here: https://libercacophoniae.wordpress.com/2017/01/30/blades-in-the-dark-key-themes-the-factions/

Question: I’ve never used BackerKit before. Am I able to buy the extras? The other settings (Leviathans, Bluecoats)? The Hacker stuff? Et cetera?

Even if you like industrial fantasy, as fantastic as the Duskvol setting is (and it’s fantastic), create your own Vices. I haven’t had this much fun doing world-gen in some time.

So, the actual release (v8?) will either have loads more than the Early Access Quickstart Kit v7.1, or it won’t.
If it does have loads more, is there anything you can tell us now about what that might look like? In the most general of terms?
If it doesn’t have loads more, other than refinement, can we please get a Changelog?
Sorry if these are FAQs that have been addressed elsewhere.

Hacking. Study? Survey? Tinker?

So I’ve started documenting a Blades in the Dark reskin, set in my Cacophony homebrew setting. The Cacophony is a love-letter to Rifts, In Nomine, and Android: Netrunner, with a few dashes of Leviathan Wakes and Shadowrun.

Useful to have a stack of clocks when I need them.
