Ben Robbins (the creator of Microscope RPG) has laid out a few problems they see in the current state of scenes and recently some ideas to tackle those perceived problems (https://arsludi.lamemage.com/index.php/3449/a-microscope-for-the-people/).

Has anyone tried these yet? How did these changes affect gameplay? Did you like the effect of those changes? And did you make any changes to dictated scenes (I’m asking this because the blog post seems to be mostly focused on acted scenes)?

This is also an opportunity to give your thoughts on the current state of scenes and what could be changed.

(I hope discussion about a specific game is allowed in this community)

I’ve not yet played but I’m hoping to give it a go next year at some point

Been mainly playing Delta Green, Call of Cthulhu, Death in Space/Mork Borg and a smattering of DnD this year
