RIFTS? Never heard of it…


(Just kidding. Sound off here with a post if RIFTS is your jam, you filthy casuals…)

For those who don’t know, RIFTS was the game that was such a hit in the 90’s that it kept Palladium on life support for the next twenty-five D&D-dominated years, and was even optioned for a movie (and then discarded into development hell as a cashed-in bargaining chip in their strategy to get a better price for the rights to the Transformers franchise. But still, a Hollywood movie! That’s never worked out horribly for the RPG in the past except for every single other time it’s happened…)

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    It’s like Oglaf, right? Some say he took down all his racy stuff when he became a professor.

      I’d say it’s more slice-of-life, like early Goats, but set in Toronto with more attractively drawn people.

        Most of Palladium’s artists did pin-ups for the swimsuit issues of The Rifter

            What’s up with that cool glow effect? Did you take a picture of a monitor with your phone?
