Fanart of artist rendition:
I have the sound of this stuck in my head now, thanks.
Did a quick search, looks like ExeKiller, which isn’t out yet. Hope you find something good to play in the meantime!
I found full matches on youtube! I was expecting like an hour-long, large-scale hockey brawl, but most of what I watched was players standing around, squaring up, or on the ground in wrestling holds, punctuated by brief moments of the ball-holder actually trying to score. It sounds like the current rules (rightly) forbid a lot of the stuff that would get people too badly hurt. The ref and pre-game procession wear period clothing, though, which is cool.
If it helps, I found books 5 and 6 of The Expanse less obnoxious than the show re: the whole family drama thing (if, like me, that’s where your biggest hangup is). I didn’t enjoy them as much as previous entries, but book 7 (imo) goes back to being pretty solid.
I’m fine with articles, but would prefer them to be informative about process or history. It’d also be nice if any posted article included a piece of art in the thumbnail, so everyone still gets something to look at.
