This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

So we concluded our m&m 2e game today.

Generally very good. I made it much for cerebral than it could have been by putting time travel at the centre. I that frustrated one player a bit.

I hadn't seen days of future past until friday night flying back from hk so it was odd as there were more than a couple of similarities especially an attack on the white house.

Any way the guys liked the game but felt the system was too complex.

The next campaign will be a d&d 5e game but they wanted some mindless fun first. One of them suggested myth eaters and cited a game where the pcs hunt santa. I can find no record of it online. Anyone heard of it and any feedback?

I haven't seen a game on those lines but I have seen a Finish movie along those lines: http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/rare_exports/

And in a sort of similar vein, there's Trollhunter: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1740707/

I've never heard the term "myth eaters"; is that a specific reference?

There is an rpg book from WW called "Geist: The Sin-Eaters".
