Episodic Campaigns

Tried to a couple of times, they always wind up having an overarching story

Yes. But it emerged naturally.

op I have done this. The thing which is different is that the characters don't do a soft reset.

I try to make all my adventures wrap up within one session.

What do you mean by "soft reset."

Also, I kinda want to try and integrate side plot stuff like a TV show. So during the course of one investigation, a character is dealing with some shit in their personal lives as well. Add some variance to the missions and give opportunities for character development.

I ran an episodic super heroes game in Wild Talents. Shit is a little hard to keep coming up with novel new villains every week. It ends up being a lot easier to fall back into throwing corpsec or kobolds at your players.

delta green has game mechanics to encourage this. I'd take a look.

I do have the Delta Green book, but I kinda want to have something where my players are more survivable than that.

Comfy horror mystery is what I'm going for here.

You get one free bump for based Kolchak.

This is how I do my D&D campaigns, I think it works a lot better. Keeps things fresh.

>>50104566
No, but I really want to.

I tried once with a bunch of friends, but then they sperged out when trying to find one minor villain's hideout and what was supposed to be a single session event, span over 5 and we all got fatigued.
