What are some games that have inspired you to break out a real pen(cil) and paper?
How do you feel about games that implicitly or explicitly want you to take notes?
Do you have any recommended “note”-worthy games?
Add awesome game deals to this topic as they come up over the course of the week!
Alternately, ask about a given game deal if you want the community’s opinions: e.g. “What games from this bundle are most worth my attention?”
Rules:
If posting a sale, it is strongly encouraged that you share why you think the available game/games are worthwhile.

Tildes is fun! But do the people here play Arma at all? If so, how do you spend your sanity in that game?

I have never played a tabletop RPG before, but was absolutely fascinated with this Kult playthrough that the YouTube algorithm decided to show me for some reason. I watched the whole thing! The "gnostic" backdrop the lore has is spellbinding.
It's hard to gauge its popularity just from YouTube videos, but I'm curious to know if anyone on Tildes has played it, and if so, what your experiences have been. And do you know of any TTRPGs that are similar? Vampire the Masquerade, maybe? My friend group isn't into this sort of thing at all, but maybe I can persuade them...
(In case you manage to miss the copious warnings at the start of that video, Kult's themes are quite graphic. Fair warning!)
